Why we do what we do
Dr. Anderson, your local specialized orthodontist, believes that everyone in Alexandria deserves a spectacular, healthy smile. Our Central Lakes Orthodontics team is committed to providing every patient with the ultimate orthodontic experience – not just straightening smiles but ensuring optimal fit and function for long-lasting smile results. We continue seeing patients for 3-4 years after their braces are removed to keep their smiles as perfect as possible.
Patient education is a big part of our patient-centered approach, so Dr. Anderson will make sure that you are always informed and involved in your treatment decisions. Superior orthodontics, convenient access to our team, and personalized treatment plans, all in a fun atmosphere – these are just some of the reasons why Minnesotans love Central Lakes Orthodontics.

Orthodontic treatment is for any age
People often ask us, “What’s the best age to get braces?” There really is no blanket answer to this question. The benefits of orthodontic treatment are ageless!
We do recommend that children have their first orthodontic evaluation with our team around age seven, so we can detect any issues that may require early treatment. The majority of orthodontic treatment takes place during the teen years (ages 12-17) when most permanent teeth are in, yet more adults are seeking orthodontic treatment than ever before. The braces available today are more modern, more stylish, and more adaptable for people of all ages – including adults who want to improve their smile for health or aesthetic reasons.
Take this opportunity to visit with our expert team for a no-cost consultation, which includes one-on-one time with Dr. Anderson, complimentary digital X-rays, and personalized treatment plan to create the smile of your dreams.
