Braces in Coralville, IA

Radiant Smiles for a Lifetime

Trusted, Personalized Braces Treatment for All Ages

If you’re looking for high-quality braces in Coralville, IA, Croco Orthodontics is here to help you achieve a straighter, healthier smile. Whether you’re a teen starting treatment for the first time or an adult ready to correct your bite and boost your confidence, Dr. Matthew Croco and our expert team are ready to guide you through every step of your smile journey.

Since 2005, we’ve helped thousands of patients across Coralville and the surrounding communities transform their smiles with advanced orthodontic care in a welcoming, patient-focused environment. At our conveniently located office, we offer multiple types of braces to fit your lifestyle, budget, and goals.

What Do Braces Treat?

Braces remain one of the most effective and versatile orthodontic tools for correcting a wide range of dental issues, including:

  • Crooked or crowded teeth
  • Gapped or spaced teeth
  • Overbites, underbites, and crossbites
  • Misaligned jaws
  • Shifting teeth from previous treatment (orthodontic relapse)

By gently moving your teeth into their ideal positions, braces not only improve your smile’s appearance but also contribute to better bite function, easier oral hygiene, and long-term dental health.

Braces Options at Croco Orthodontics

We believe every patient deserves a personalized treatment plan. That’s why we offer several types of braces to meet the unique needs of children, teens, and adults.

Traditional Metal Braces

Metal braces are the most common and time-tested option for straightening teeth. Today’s brackets are smaller, smoother, and more comfortable than ever—and they remain a reliable solution for treating both simple and complex orthodontic concerns.

Teens especially love customizing their braces with colored bands to show off school spirit or personal style.

LightForce Custom Braces

For patients seeking a more aesthetic and precise option, we offer LightForce braces—the world’s first 3D-printed, fully custom bracket system. LightForce braces are designed specifically for your smile using digital scans, resulting in a faster, more comfortable experience and shorter treatment times.

These low-profile, tooth-colored braces are ideal for teens and adults who want advanced treatment without the bulk of traditional brackets.

How Much Do Braces Cost?

The cost of braces in Coralville depends on several factors, including the complexity of your case, the type of braces you choose, and your estimated treatment time. At Croco Orthodontics, we’re committed to transparency and affordability.

We offer:

  • Complimentary consultations
  • Interest-free financing options
  • Flexible monthly payment plans
  • Coordination with most major insurance providers

Our goal is to make sure you can access the care you need—without financial stress.

What to Expect During Braces Treatment

Your smile journey begins with a free consultation, where we’ll perform a digital scan and evaluation. From there, we’ll develop a custom treatment plan and help you choose the best type of braces for your needs.

Once treatment begins:

  • You’ll visit us for adjustments every 6–8 weeks
  • We’ll monitor your progress and make sure your teeth move efficiently
  • You’ll get tips for brushing, flossing, and eating with braces
  • Most patients complete treatment in 12–24 months, depending on their case

Our Coralville team is always here to support you with answers, encouragement, and expert care at every stage.

Braces for Kids, Teens, and Adults

We proudly provide braces for patients of all ages:

  • Kids: Some younger children may benefit from early treatment or interceptive appliances to guide growth and development.
  • Teens: The most common time for braces—our team works with each teen to make the process simple and empowering.
  • Adults: It’s never too late! We treat many adult patients who are ready to invest in themselves and improve their long-term oral health.

Nice place, easy set up and friendly experienced staff
Tina S.
We have four children who have all been patients of Dr Croco. We highly recommend him and his team. They are very professional, friendly and get their patients in and out quickly. Even with difficult mouth issues which one of our kids required a half set of braces in grade school and then a full set later we were able to solve his issues without surgery. Dr Croco is very knowledgeable on how to have successful outcomes. All four of the kids have beautiful smiles. Now I am also a patient of Dr Croco to fix some dental issues I have as well. I'm now in braces for the first time and look forward to see my final outcome. We completely trust and recommend Croco Orthodontic services. We also know he goes above and beyond when you have an emergency dealing with your braces after hours which we really appreciated. We have spent many years with the Croco team and we have throughly enjoyed every minute of our experience with them.

The Croco team is great! We were referred from our family dentist for our son’s braces. The team is very kind and they are completely transparent with the costs and expectations for our son. We feel we have a great partner as we go down this path to ensure a successful outcome! Thanks team Croco!!

Updating our review after my son completed his 2year treatment plan. If I could give more than 5 starts I would. The Croco team was great every step of the way; giving comprehensive information from the beginning, giving reinforcements along the way and preparing my son for the continued commitment post braces for continued oral health. They delivered 100% with what they promised us! We always feel comfortable asking questions and trust in the guidance they provide. We will definitely be back for our daughter when that time comes. Thanks again team Croco!
Christian M.

As always Dr Croco and his whole staff treated our whole family with kindness and respect. We drive an hour to see them because they are worth every minute on the road. I've suggested them to any of my friends who have kids who may need braces.
Shelene J.
We have been so happy with our experience at Croco Orthodontics! Dr. Croco was great to work with and really listened to my concerns. We have been so happy with the results and the continuing care post orthodontics! I highly recommend this office for all your orthodontic needs.
Taylor S.
Croco orthodontics is such a positive place! Both of my sisters and I have gotten braces from them and every employee is great! They really make the experience 10 times better!
Kyralin J.
These guys were Amazing; with my mom being a former dental hygienist we got a professional discount and it was more of a discount than expected. Not only that, but they were so kind and focused on comfort alongside the proper fitting of braces, retainers, lingual bar, etc.

They were so flexible with scheduling as well, and even after 9 years and needing a retainer replaced, they still remembered me and greeted me at the door. Said retainer scan took no time at all, and I was in and out.

All in all- if you need braces or retainers or anything of the like, come here. They will happily work with you to get to where you want to be with your smile, and you won’t break the bank or take a century to get there. My brother and sister went somewhere else for their braces; I have to say I got the MUCH better experience. This place is amazing.
Victoria F.
Great service and outcomes of braced for all our boys.
Carson P.
The staff is very nice and my teeth are glistening.
Kristen B.
Croco orthodontics has a wonderful staff! They make you feel at ease and explain everything throughly. My daughter got lots of extra attention!
Dana C.
Matt and the whole Croco staff is outstanding. I got my braces in 2019 and spent the next year with them. When I broke my retainer in the height of Covid 2020 and couldn't get in and my teeth shifted they were quick to assist and get me back on track. When visiting again this year I had a new addition to the family and the whole staff remembered me and my newborn I had in 2020. They treated me like family and it was so homey. You maybe visiting an orthodontics office but you become family. I recommend them to everyone.
Brock F.
Dr. Croco does a great job assessing each patient and providing individual and personable care to everyone he treats. He is efficient yet thorough and takes the time for you to understand your care and the process of taking on braces. His office staff is great and the assistants he has in his office go above and beyond to make you feel comfortable. It's a great place to take on such a life changing process and everyone there is much appreciated!
Brandy P.
Great doctor and staff. They make you feel like more then a number
Sara W.
We could not have asked for a better experience. My children had very crooked teeth, overbites, and teeth that refused to grow in. There was no rushing through the process to get their teeth and overbites corrected. My son had two surgeries, which caused more work and time for Dr. Croco, but he never acted inconvenienced by this. The staff is always pleasant. I would only recommend Croco Orthodontics if anyone asked.
Z.Man.38
Great staff! Great service! Whenever there’s an emergency they usually can get you in day of!
Kathryn Adair (.
My family and I love Croco! I currently have braces through them, and I am so happy with the service I’m receiving. Croco Orthodontics makes me feel very comfortable and like I am part of their family! Every person that works there is professional, always smiling, and very friendly.
Highly recommend Croco for anyone who needs orthodontic care. They are wonderful!!
Amber I.
I have been taking my kids to Croco Orthodontics for almost 4 years! Dr Croco put braces on my daughter when she was 9! She now has had them off for a year and her smile is beautiful! Great Dr and great staff !! Highly recommended!
Tami R.
Croco Orthodontics has provided great care for my 3 children. The friendly staff and Dr. Croco all put my kids at ease, and explained the process thoroughly, so we all knew what to expect. They are also great community supporters. Highly recommend!
