Simon LAkewood orthodonticS As one of the only orthodontists in the country with formal training in the treatment of skeletal discrepancies, Dr. Simon is at the top of her profession. From this perspective she views every face as unique, and creates an individual plan that takes facial harmony into consideration. This advanced approach is what separates Dr. Simon from the rest, as she continues to educate herself and her team with the most innovative orthodontic technologies and philosophies. For example, she feels that the goals for early treatment of a child are not merely to straighten the teeth, but to provide a healthy environment and foundation for future dental development. Often, less is more, and monitoring the developing child is all that is necessary. Because Dr. Simon believes so strongly that each child deserves a healthy smile, there is never a charge for observation visits, and parents are encouraged to call with their concerns. Technology has also brought much advancement to the field of orthodontics. Treatment is quicker, easier, and often less noticeable than ever before. Along with cutting edge technology, at Lakewood Orthodontics, Dr. Simon and her team are dedicated to providing exceptional service and exceeding expectations. The environment is energetic, upbeat, and friendly. Each patient’s treatment plan is personalized, because when it comes to creating the perfect smile, there are many options. Lakewood Orthodontics’ small size and personal atmosphere allow Dr. Simon to spend time with her patients explaining treatment options, allowing parents and adult patients to be partners in the orthodontic treatment plan. Dr. Simon has practiced in the Lakewood area for over ten years, and is a consistent supporter of the Lakewood community, its local schools, and its community events. She is a member of the Lakewood Women in Business and maintains a volunteer faculty position at UT Southwestern Medical Center. Dr. Simon is a certified provider of Invisalign and Incognito braces. She is board certified by the American Board of Orthodontics and a member of the American Dental Association and the American Association of Orthodontists. She is consistently chosen for inclusion on the Best Dentists list in D Magazine and Texas Monthly.
