Orthodontist Serving Clifton Park
If you live in Clifton Park and you're looking for an orthodontist, Dr. Greg Efros and the team at Efros Orthodontics see patients from your area at our Latham office, just a short drive away. We work with kids, teens, and adults who want straighter teeth and a bite that actually works the way it should.
Clifton Park has grown a lot over the years, and a lot of the families here commute for work, school, and everyday errands anyway. Adding an orthodontic visit to that routine doesn't have to be complicated. Our Latham office is easy to get to, and we try to make scheduling as painless as the treatment itself.
Getting to Our Latham Office
From Clifton Park, the drive to our Latham office is short and direct, which makes it manageable for parents juggling school pickups and work schedules, and for adults who just want to get in and out on a lunch break. We know nobody wants to spend their whole afternoon at an orthodontic appointment, so we aim to respect your time at every visit.
Whether you're coming in for a first consultation or a routine adjustment, our staff will help you find appointment times that fit around your life in Clifton Park, not the other way around.
Braces for Every Age
Braces have come a long way, and there's more than one way to get a straight smile. Dr. Efros will walk you through the options at your first visit and help you decide what fits your goals, your daily habits, and your comfort level.
There is more on timelines, care, and what to expect on our Latham braces page.
Traditional Metal Braces
Metal braces are still one of the most reliable ways to move teeth into place. They're durable, they handle complex corrections well, and modern brackets are smaller and less noticeable than they used to be. For many patients, especially kids and teens, they're a straightforward and effective choice.
Ceramic Braces
Ceramic braces work the same way as metal braces but use tooth-colored or clear brackets that blend in more with your natural teeth. They tend to appeal to teens and adults who want something less visible while still getting the precise control that traditional braces offer.
Clear Aligners
For some patients, clear aligners offer another path to a straighter smile without brackets or wires at all. Dr. Efros can tell you at your consultation whether your bite and alignment needs make you a good candidate.
Invisalign for Clifton Park Patients
Invisalign uses a series of clear, removable trays to gradually shift your teeth. A lot of adults in Clifton Park like that they can take the trays out to eat, brush, and floss normally, and that the trays themselves are hard to spot in everyday conversation or on video calls.
It's not the right fit for every case, but for many patients with mild to moderate alignment issues, it's a comfortable and flexible option. We'll check your bite and talk through whether Invisalign makes sense for what you're trying to achieve.

Treatment for Kids, Teens, and Adults
Orthodontic needs look different depending on your age, and we treat patients across the board. For kids, an early check can catch developing bite issues before they become bigger problems, giving Dr. Efros more options for how and when to address them.
Teens make up a big share of our patients, and we know appearance and comfort matter to them just as much as the end result. For adults, it's never too late to start. Plenty of grown-ups in Clifton Park decide to finally address a smile they've been putting off, and we treat those cases with the same care and attention as anyone else's.
What to Expect at Your First Visit
Your first visit is really about information. We'll take a look at your teeth and bite, talk with you about what's bothering you or what you'd like to change, and walk through what treatment could look like. There's no pressure to decide anything on the spot.
You'll leave with a clear picture of your options, roughly what the process would involve, and a chance to ask Dr. Efros any questions you have. We want you to feel informed, not rushed.
