Choosing an orthodontist is about more than finding someone who can straighten teeth—it’s about trusting a doctor with the health, function, and appearance of your smile. At Star Orthodontics, we’re proud to offer something patients won’t find just anywhere: a locally owned practice with decades of experience, advanced treatment expertise, and a commitment to personalized care that has served South Texas families for generations; making you feel confident, comfortable, and cared for from the very first visit.
A Homegrown Orthodontist Leading a Trusted Local Practice
Unlike many orthodontic offices that are owned by large corporations or outside investors, Star Orthodontics is led by a hometown orthodontist who understands the community she serves. As the rightful owner and practicing orthodontist, Dr. Robertson is personally invested in every patient’s experience and treatment outcome.
Our patients aren’t just numbers on a schedule—they’re neighbors, friends, and families we have the privilege of caring for every day.
Experience You Can Trust
Experience matters, especially when it comes to orthodontic treatment.
Star Orthodontics has been creating healthy, confident smiles longer than any other orthodontic practice in the area. Our doctors bring more than 72 years of combined orthodontic experience and have successfully treated thousands of patients throughout South Texas. From simple smile tune-ups and minor alignment corrections to the most complex orthodontic and surgical cases, our team has the expertise to develop a treatment plan that is right for you.
Every smile is unique, which is why we take the time to understand your goals and recommend personalized treatment options designed to achieve the best possible outcome.
Expertise in Complex Orthodontic Cases
Not every orthodontic case is straightforward. Many patients come to us after being told their treatment is too complicated or requires a higher level of expertise.
Our team routinely treats:
- Severe bite discrepancies
- Impacted teeth
- Skeletal jaw discrepancies
- Surgical orthodontic cases
- Adult expansion orthodontic treatment
- Multidisciplinary treatment involving other dental specialists
- Complex Invisalign cases
- Cases requiring Temporary Anchorage Devices (TADs) for advanced tooth movement
- Soft Tissue Laser Treatment
We take pride in developing customized treatment plans designed around each patient’s unique needs and goals.
Leaders in MARPE Treatment
Star Orthodontics is one of the few practices with extensive experience in MARPE (Miniscrew-Assisted Rapid Palatal Expansion), an advanced treatment option used to address upper jaw constriction and airway-related concerns in appropriate patients.
MARPE allows certain patients to achieve skeletal expansion that may not be possible with traditional orthodontic treatment alone. This specialized treatment requires advanced training, careful planning, and experience treating complex orthodontic conditions.
Advanced Orthognathic Surgery Treatment Planning
For patients with significant jaw discrepancies, orthodontic treatment alone may not be enough to achieve optimal function and facial balance.
Our team has extensive experience working alongside oral and maxillofacial surgeons to plan and coordinate orthognathic (jaw) surgery cases. Through close collaboration and detailed treatment planning, we help patients achieve improved bite function, facial harmony, and long-term oral health.
Few orthodontic practices regularly manage these complex cases, making experience especially important when considering treatment.
Advanced Invisalign Expertise
Invisalign has transformed orthodontics, but successful treatment depends on the expertise behind the plan.
At Star Orthodontics, we use Invisalign to treat far more than simple alignment concerns. Our experience allows us to successfully manage many complex orthodontic cases with clear aligners, giving patients additional treatment options that may not be available elsewhere.
Treatment for All Ages
Orthodontic treatment isn’t just for teenagers. At Star Orthodontics, we proudly treat children, teens, and adults, helping patients at every stage of life achieve healthy, confident smiles.
Whether you’re interested in traditional braces or advanced Invisalign treatment, our team stays up to date with the latest technology and treatment techniques to provide efficient, comfortable care.
No matter your age or orthodontic needs, we’re here to help you find the treatment solution that fits your lifestyle and goals.
Proud to Serve Our South Texas Community
We are honored to serve the diverse communities that make South Texas such a special place. To better care for our patients and their families, we are proud to have a doctor who is fluent in Spanish, helping us communicate clearly and comfortably with Spanish-speaking patients throughout their orthodontic journey.
Our commitment to personalized care means ensuring every patient feels heard, understood, and confident in their treatment decisions.
Convenience Designed for Busy Families
Life is busy, and we believe orthodontic care should fit into your schedule—not the other way around.
That’s why we offer:
- Saturday appointments
- Free consultations
- No dental referral required
- Flexible scheduling options
- Insurance filing assistance
Getting started is easy. You don’t need a referral from your dentist to schedule an appointment, and our team is always available to answer questions and help you navigate the process.
Financing That Fits Your Family’s Budget
We understand that orthodontic treatment is an important investment, and we believe finances should never stand in the way of a healthy, confident smile.
That’s why we offer flexible financing options designed to fit a variety of budgets. In many cases, down payments can be as low as $500, with monthly payments starting around $250 per month—about the cost of a Starbucks coffee each day.
Our team works closely with every family to create a payment plan that feels comfortable and manageable. We’ll also file your insurance on your behalf to help maximize your benefits and make the financial process as simple as possible.
We believe everyone deserves access to quality orthodontic care, and we’re committed to making treatment affordable for the families we serve.
