What Sets Us Apart
Patient Forms
I want to share wonderful news about our practice. Many of you may have noticed a new happy face in the office. It’s Dr. Shirley Zhang! Dr. Zhang and I have been connected orthodontically for over ten years. She is full of smiles, happiness, warmth, and outstanding technical skills, and, oh, a competitive ballroom dancer! She will be working alongside me so we can have even more flexibility with scheduling and patient care. We are so excited to be working side by side for years to come!! See you at your next visit!
I could not imagine having a better job than being an orthodontist! I love meeting and getting to know each one of our patients individually during their orthodontic journey with us. Our role in guiding each of our patients’ progress towards a perfectly pearly smile and seeing their self-confidence blossom at each appointment is what brings me joy and makes my job so incredibly rewarding. I’m beyond excited to be working side by side with my good friend Dr. Lippitz; our synergy and joviality make us an excellent team!

Dr Lippitz is AMAZING! The entire staff is incredibly accommodating, helpful, professional and kind. We started our experience in May of 2019 and it has been smooth sailing since. My son got his braces off and now I’m going to get mine on.

Dr.Lippitz has been my son’s orthodontist for a few years. He just got his braces off and we couldn’t be happier. Dr. Lippitz and his entire staff are fantastic- they are so friendly, professional and genuinely care about the patient and your experience. We highly recommend Dr. Lippitz.
Noel M.
Dr. Lipptz and his whole team were outstanding to work with throughout the entire process for me coming in as an adult for Invisalign. I couldn't be happier with how things turned out, and the experiences for both of my teenagers with Dr. Lippitz were also excellent.

Smile, You’ve Got Options
We offer the most advanced orthodontic treatment options and technology for children, teens and adults.
Traditional Braces
Now that you have your braces, how do you take care of them? It's important for you to know how to properly take care of your braces throughout your entire orthodontic treatment.
Clear Braces
Clear ceramic braces are an exciting and popular alternative to metal braces. Like traditional braces, they are used by an orthodontist to realign and straighten the teeth.
Invisalign
Consider Invisalign to get the beautiful straight teeth you've always wanted - without braces. A complimentary consultation with our doctor can determine if Invisalign is right for you.
Two-Phase Treatment
Two-phase orthodontic treatment is a multi-step procedure that is started at an early age and then later completed when all of the patient’s permanent teeth are in place. It’s used to address teeth alignment as well as issues in the facial bone structure.
TMD (TMJ)
TMD is a complicated disorder with many possible causes and symptoms. Lippitz Orthodontics knows how frustrating this condition can be, and we want to help you manage it.
Meet Dr. Stefen J. Lippitz
I’m a third generation provider and I’ve gladly followed in my grandfathers’ and father’s footsteps. Even as a little kid, I loved working in my father’s orthodontic office and knew from a young age what my life’s work would be. Today, I love transforming people’s smiles and educating them on how important function is along with a beautiful result. It’s most gratifying. Spending time with kids and families during their treatment is wonderful, too. My staff and I love getting to know each child and adult. They become our orthodontic family. It’s very warm and professional at the same time. I genuinely want each patient to have a positive experience and excellent outcome, just as my father and grandfather did before me.
