A Legacy of Orthodontic Innovation in Bergen County
What makes Clemente Orthodontics truly special is our unique family approach to orthodontic care. Dr. Michael Clemente, along with his talented daughters, Dr. Nicole and Dr. Marissa, have created a practice where advanced clinical skills meet genuine family values. This multigenerational team brings together over three decades of combined experience, ensuring every patient receives both cutting-edge treatment and the personal attention that comes from a practice that truly cares.
Our Diamond Plus Invisalign® Provider designation places us among the most skilled orthodontic practices in the nation. This prestigious recognition, earned by less than 1% of all orthodontic providers, demonstrates our mastery of the most advanced teeth-straightening technology available today. As the leading Invisalign® practice in New York and New Jersey, we’ve helped thousands of patients achieve remarkable smile transformations using this revolutionary treatment approach.
Revolutionary Invisalign® Treatment Solutions
Invisalign® treatment has transformed the orthodontic experience by eliminating many of the challenges associated with traditional metal braces. These virtually invisible aligners allow patients to straighten their teeth discreetly while maintaining their normal eating habits and oral hygiene routines.
Our Ridgewood team has perfected the art of Invisalign® treatment planning, enabling us to address even the most complex orthodontic challenges. From crowded teeth that overlap each other to gaps between teeth, bite problems, and rotated teeth, our advanced treatment techniques consistently deliver exceptional results. The precision of our treatment planning means patients often complete their transformation faster than they initially expected.
The beauty of Invisalign® extends beyond its invisible appearance. Patients can remove their aligners for special occasions, important meetings, or when eating their favorite foods. This flexibility makes orthodontic treatment more convenient than ever before, particularly for busy professionals and active teenagers who want to maintain their lifestyles during treatment.
Advanced Braces Options for Optimal Results
Traditional braces continue to play an important role in comprehensive orthodontic care, particularly for complex cases and younger patients. Today’s braces systems are remarkably more comfortable and efficient than previous generations, with smaller, smoother brackets and high-tech wires that move teeth more gently.
Our Ridgewood practice offers multiple braces options to suit different patient needs and preferences. Metal braces provide exceptional durability and are often the most cost-effective choice for extensive orthodontic corrections. For patients seeking a more aesthetic option, ceramic braces blend seamlessly with natural tooth color while delivering the same reliable results as traditional metal systems.
Protecting Your Investment With Quality Retainers
Retainer care is the final and crucial phase of orthodontic treatment. After months or years of active treatment, retainers maintain your newly positioned teeth in their ideal locations. Our comprehensive retention protocols ensure your beautiful new smile remains stable for life.
We provide both removable and permanent retainer options, along with detailed guidance on proper care and maintenance. Our retention program includes regular follow-up appointments to monitor your smile stability and address any concerns that may arise during this important maintenance phase.

Growing Smiles: Pediatric Orthodontics
Early orthodontic intervention can prevent many complex problems from developing as children grow. Our pediatric approach focuses on guiding proper jaw development and creating space for permanent teeth, often reducing the need for more extensive treatment later.
We understand that orthodontic visits can feel overwhelming for younger patients, so our team takes extra care to create positive experiences. Through patient education and gentle encouragement, we help children feel comfortable and confident throughout their orthodontic journey.
Teen-Focused Orthodontic Programs
Teenage orthodontic care requires special consideration for the social and academic pressures that teens face. Our teen programs offer flexible treatment options that allow young people to maintain their confidence while achieving their dream smiles.
Many of our teen patients choose Invisalign® Teen, which includes special features designed specifically for teenage lifestyles. These aligners accommodate the unpredictability of teen life while still delivering excellent orthodontic results. We also work closely with families to schedule appointments around school schedules and extracurricular activities.
Adult Orthodontic Excellence
Adult orthodontic treatment has become increasingly popular as professionals recognize the career and personal benefits of an attractive smile. Whether addressing issues that were never treated or teeth that have shifted over time, our adult-focused approach delivers outstanding results efficiently and discreetly.
Adults particularly appreciate the convenience and aesthetics of Invisalign® treatment, which allows them to straighten their teeth without impacting their professional appearance or social interactions. Many adult patients are surprised by how quickly they adapt to wearing aligners and how manageable the treatment process becomes.
Comprehensive Oral Health Protection
Custom Night Guards for Teeth Protection
Night guard therapy provides essential protection for patients who grind or clench their teeth during sleep. This common condition, known as bruxism, can cause significant damage to both natural teeth and orthodontic work if left untreated.
Our custom-fitted night guards are precisely designed to protect your teeth while maintaining comfort throughout the night. Made from high-quality materials, these appliances help prevent tooth wear, jaw pain, and headaches associated with nighttime grinding.
Patient-Centered Care and Advanced Technology
Our Ridgewood facility features state-of-the-art diagnostic and treatment technologies that enhance both the accuracy of our treatment planning and the comfort of your experience. Digital imaging allows us to create precise treatment predictions and show you exactly what your finished smile will look like before beginning treatment.
We believe that informed patients make the best treatment decisions, so we take time to thoroughly explain your options and answer all your questions. Our goal is to ensure you feel completely confident in your treatment plan and excited about your upcoming transformation.
Making Quality Orthodontic Care Accessible
Outstanding orthodontic treatment should be available to every family, regardless of financial circumstances. Our comprehensive payment and insurance programs help make quality orthodontic care more accessible to our Ridgewood community.
We work directly with all major insurance providers to maximize your orthodontic benefits and offer flexible payment plans that spread treatment costs over comfortable monthly amounts. Our insurance coordinators provide detailed benefit explanations and cost estimates during your initial consultation, ensuring you have all the information needed to make informed decisions about your care.
