Dr. Karen Clements has been practicing orthodontics in the Seattle area since 2003. She strives to provide her patients with a comfortable yet efficient experience with orthodontics, whether it is with conventional braces, growth modification, more complex surgical cases, or Invisalign. Because the field of orthodontics involves many options and choices, she believes that it is important to involve her patients and parents in the treatment decisions and establish the best individualized plan for each of her patients. She welcomes having parents join their children in the treatment area, so that lines of communication are always open and she can give updates on progress.
Dr. Clements was one of the first practitioners to utilize Invisalign when it was being developed, and published her research on Invisalign in 2003. She is dedicate to expanding her knowledge, continuing her education on all aspects of orthodontics.
My patients deserve the best, and by participating in continuing education courses I am able to stay current with the latest technology and orthodontic treatments, in order to provide my patients with more options and better results
