A native of Ann Arbor, she completed her dental education and advanced three-year orthodontic residency at the University of Michigan, equipping her with the expertise to diagnose and treat complex alignment and bite concerns.

McNamara Orthodontics offers orthodontic treatment for every stage of life, with customized care for children, teens, and adults. From early orthodontic evaluations and growth monitoring to comprehensive braces and clear aligner treatment, each plan is designed around healthy jaw development, precise bite correction, and long-term stability. Our orthodontic consultations help patients understand the right timing and treatment approach for their individual needs.
Invisalign® treatment offers a discreet solution for straightening your teeth. These clear aligners are comfortable, removable, and nearly invisible, allowing you to maintain your lifestyle while achieving a perfect smile. Our personalized Invisalign treatment plans are tailored to meet each patient’s unique needs.
Metal braces remain one of the most reliable teeth straightening options, offering precise control for mild to complex orthodontic concerns, including bite and jaw alignment treatment.
Ceramic braces provide the same effectiveness as metal braces with a more subtle appearance, making them a popular choice for teens and adults seeking discreet orthodontic treatment.
