Okubo Orthodontics

Striving to be the best Orthodontist in Utah & Nevada!

The Okubo Smile

We provide the foundation for a lifetime of optimal dental health. Straight teeth are a side effect of good function and stability. Our goal is a broad full smile, American Board of Orthodontics standard of care tooth alignment as well as stable position and ideal function. 

  • We are not an assembly line orthodontic factory. 
  • Our practice is always evolving, but one thing that never changes is that every appliance and custom arch wire is fabricated by Dr. O.
  • We use innovative orthodontic techniques to activate bone to expand adult arches with removable appliances, avoiding surgical treatment.
  • 20% of our patients have transferred their treatment from someone else.
  • Our motto is “to do things right the first time.” 

Let us be your first orthodontist

Meet Dr. Byron Okubo

Dr. O is a board-certified orthodontist who has had a passion for providing expert orthodontic care for decades. At age 15, Dr. O had an opportunity to become an orthodontic lab technician. He learned how teeth are shaped and about occlusion (how teeth fit together). Most importantly, he learned where the brackets should be positioned to reproduce optimal, consistent results with every case. At age 18, he started Okubo Orthodontic Appliances Lab. Orthodontists often asked him to design custom removable appliances so they could finish difficult cases they could not treat with traditional “braces.”

Byron was born and raised in Utah and is now giving back to the community by working every day to be the best orthodontist in Utah or Nevada. He has the pleasure of working with amazing staff who are parents of patients. With offices in Magna, Sandy / Midvale, Wendover, and Elko, top quality orthodontic care, braces and teeth alignment are much more readily available.

Our Orthodontic Treatments

Clear Removable Aligners

Smooth, comfortable, and nearly invisible, clear aligners are one of the most discreet ways to a perfect smile.

Indirect Bonding Braces

Indirect bonding allows extreme control over tooth positioning, and produces quick results.

Clarity Ceramic Braces

Low profile and translucent, these ceramic braces are discreet and have an impact quickly and accurately.

Harmony Lingual Braces

These are truly invisible braces, straightening your teeth while concealed behind them.

It's important to remember that not all braces work for all patients. Dr. Okubo will take your preference into account and guide you to the choice that will have the best impact for you.
