About Alpan Orthodontics
Based on West 3rd Street in the Westlake area of Los Angeles, California, Alpan Orthodontics is a dental practice serving the area. Orthodontic treatment straightens teeth and corrects bite problems using braces, clear aligners, or similar appliances over a period that commonly runs from about a year to several years depending on the case. It is offered to both children, where early evaluation can catch developing issues, and adults at any age.
Digital X-rays are a routine part of dental care because they show what a visual exam alone cannot — decay forming between teeth, bone loss below the gumline, and how developing adult teeth are positioned in children. They use a low radiation dose and are taken on a schedule matched to individual risk rather than at every single visit.
Left untreated, small dental problems tend not to stay small. A minor cavity that would have been a straightforward filling can progress to needing root canal treatment and a crown, and early gum inflammation that would have reversed with a good cleaning can progress toward bone loss around the teeth. Catching things early is generally the difference in both effort and cost.
Continuity matters in dental care — seeing the same practice over time means your history, X-rays, and any patterns in your oral health are already on file, rather than starting from scratch at each visit. That familiarity is part of what a regular dental home offers beyond any single appointment.
Dental anxiety is common, and most practices are used to working with nervous patients — through clear explanations of what is about to happen, a slower pace where needed, and sedation options for patients who want them. Avoiding the dentist out of anxiety tends to make eventual treatment more involved, not less.
Children benefit from starting dental visits early, generally by their first birthday or within six months of the first tooth coming through, mainly so they become familiar with the setting before any treatment is actually needed. Establishing that routine early tends to make ongoing checkups far less stressful for both child and parent. This page has the practice's contact details and full service list.

Hi Alpan Orthodontics is one of the best places to get your smile upgraded the staff is very friendly and the crew are incredibly, shout out to Adrian he's the first specialist I met here is genuinely nice and awesome!!! 🙂
Great visit. Just received my first set of retainers. Everyone explained everything thoroughly and also asked if I had questions. I had assistance with making my follow up appointment and everyone was so cordial. What a well run location.
I had a great experience at Alpan Orthodontics yesterday. I have been a patient at the 3rd Street location since 2015. I return each year for a retainer checkup. It always goes very smoothly. Everyone is so nice at the office. Jessica and Sistena are at the desk to welcome you and take care of your needs. They are friendly and kind. Eddie reviewed my history with me and took my retainers for a machine cleaning. Adrian followed up with a manual cleaning as well. It was a very thorough job. They look and fit great. Dr. Brittany Link provided excellent service and care. She checked my mouth. She checked my retainer thoroughly for cracks and wear and tear. My "Invisalign Vivera" retainer is over 2 years old, and holding up very well. These retainers are sturdier than my previous standard retainers. I highly recommend Alpan Orthontics for all of your ortho needs. You will have a wonderful experience.
Stuff iare friendly, kind. Stuff are professional. It took 40 minutes from the moment I entered until the visit was over. I was called in at my scheduled time.
Dr. Alpan is the real deal. Top-notch technology, a friendly and professional team, and quick, efficient appointments make the whole experience easy. My smile has improved dramatically since starting Invisalign, and I actually look forward to my visits. Highly recommend Dr. Alpan if you want results and a smooth process.
I love Dr. Alpan’s office! The staff is so kind, organized, and welcoming every time I come in. I’m doing Invisalign and they’ve made the whole process so easy that I can still live my normal life without it feeling like a hassle. Dr. Alpan and the team truly care about their patients and make every visit a great experience. Highly recommend!
Had a great experience with the orthodontic team, and I want to especially highlight Eddie for his outstanding service. He’s always professional, attentive, and makes every visit comfortable and efficient. Eddie takes the time to explain each step clearly and ensures I understand my treatment progress. The level of care and customer service he provides truly stands out. Highly recommend both the orthodontic office and Eddie for anyone considering treatment!
Have had a great experience here at Alpan Orthodontic on 3rd and Carondelet. I've had some great staff in helping me with my journey here. Eddie has been really great with my braces and taking care of me and Andrea has been an amazing help with getting my appointment and all that jazz situated. Great staff and place over all.
Excellent service. The dental braces technician Adrian was very professional, patient, and detail-oriented in his work. He explained every step clearly, answered all my questions, and made me feel very confident throughout the process. His experience and dedication truly show, and his treatment was kind and respectful. I 100% recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and high-quality braces specialist!
