Carolina Braces

There’s a fun place to get braces? At Carolina Braces, with offices in both Brier Creek and North Raleigh, that’s actually our motto: “The Fun Place for Braces!” When you enter both offices, you're greeted by huge salt water aquariums teeming with beautiful fish. While you're waiting for your appointment, you can grab a cup of coffee or bottled water, use one of our iPads, relax in our movie theater or play video games and enter contests.” Dr. Kent also offers significant support to local schools, scout troops, dance studios, sports teams, churches and other groups and organizations – which seems as much a part of his passion as is his profession. A native of Ohio, Dr. Kent received undergraduate degrees in chemistry and zoology at UNC-Chapel Hill and achieved both a Doctor of Dental Surgery degree and a Master of Orthodontic Sciences degree at Washington University of St. Louis. He’s thrilled to help create smiles that have a major effect on self-image and self-esteem. “What most don't realize is that orthodontics is a lot more than straight teeth. The transformation a patient goes through in having orthodontic treatment is a life changing process.” Technology is also a big part of Carolina Braces, which is one of Raleigh’s leading providers of Damon Smile, the new generation of braces that eliminates the need for rubber bands and are much smaller, smoother, and less irritating to cheeks and gums. Carolina Braces is Raleigh's only Elite Invisalign Adult and Teen Provider and provides patients with a comfortable, impression-free experience by using 3D imaging using Invisalign's iTero scanner. Our I-CAT 3D imaging scanner gives our practice state-of-the-art technology to help us diagnose potential issues accurately and provide treatment with unprecedented confidence.
