Home·Braces
Metal and clear braces planned and adjusted by a certified specialist orthodontist. $1,000 down, from $220 a month at 0% in-house interest.
Most people arrive assuming aligners are the modern choice and braces are what they had to put up with as a teenager. For a lot of bites that is backwards. Braces move teeth the orthodontist controls directly, which makes them faster and more predictable on rotations, deep bites and anything that needs real mechanics.
So the honest answer depends on your bite, not on fashion. Dr. Daher plans and adjusts both braces and Invisalign himself, so the option you are offered is the one that suits your bite.
The practice is by Canada Place, so adjustments fit into a lunch break or a school run rather than costing you an afternoon. You see the same small team each time, so nobody has to re-read your history back to you.
And you will know what is happening. Dr. Daher explains what he is doing and why, in plain language, at every visit.
Dr. Daher has planned orthodontic treatment for over 30 years and leads a specialist orthodontic practice in downtown Vancouver. He opened the world’s first Invisalign-only practice in 2009, has taught in 142 cities across six continents, and still sits on Align Technology’s scientific advisory board.
Leave four details and Dr. Daher’s front desk will call you the same business day to book your free consultation. No health questions here: we cover all of that on the call.

Dr Sam Daher and his assistant made me feel very comfortable. My braces came off today it was a big day for me. I had my retainers put on and Dr Sam Daher’s assistant took the time to show me how to put them on and take them off.”
Your consultation is free. We ask for a name, a phone number and an email, never health details.
Dr. Daher does, at your free consultation, and he plans and adjusts both himself. That matters more than it sounds: recommending between braces and Invisalign takes a specialist who plans both. You leave with the option that suits your bite, and your exact figure for it in writing.
Every bite is different, so you get your exact price in writing at your free consultation rather than a range that may not apply to you. Most plans here start at $1,000 down and from $220 a month at 0% in-house interest, with your insurance billed directly.
Ceramic clear brackets are far less visible and suit adults who would rather not advertise the treatment. Metal is stronger and often a little faster, which matters on complex mechanics. Dr. Daher will tell you honestly whether your case has a real preference or whether it is genuinely your choice.
There is usually some tenderness for a few days after placement and after an adjustment, the kind that responds to soft food and ordinary painkillers. It is not the constant discomfort people remember from decades ago. Tell us if anything is rubbing and we will fix it rather than asking you to put up with it.
Yes, and a good share of our patients are downtown professionals. Bone responds to the same forces at forty as at fourteen; treatment can simply take a little longer. If visibility is the concern, clear brackets or Invisalign are both worth discussing at your consultation.
Every plan finishes with clear retainers and a retention plan, because teeth drift if you let them. Dr. Daher checks your retention himself. If an old retainer has stopped fitting, we can help with that too.
