Q: Is Elate Orthodontics a corporate-owned practice?
No. Elate Orthodontics is a family-owned practice led by Dr. Kevin Baharvand and Dr. Julia Kang, a husband-and-wife team. We offer personal, long-term care with a family feel.

Q: What is the difference between Invisalign and Angel Aligners?
Both are clear aligner systems that straighten teeth without metal brackets. Invisalign is the most widely recognized brand globally. Angel Aligners are a premium system used by specialist orthodontists and are often more affordable while offering greater customization for complex cases. Dr. Baharvand is one of the largest Angel Aligner providers in Texas and trains other orthodontists on advanced aligner techniques. We offer both systems and will recommend the best fit for your specific case at your free consultation.
