Our husband and wife team of orthodontists, Dr. Matt and Megan Lineberger, Claire Fedore, and the Smile Squad are serving up smiles in more ways than one in Huntersville, Charlotte, and soon in Mooresville, NC.
In other words, we offer the perfect orthodontic trifecta for anyone looking to straighten their smile. With the tagline Smile On, we aim to create smiles inside and outside of the office by supporting patients and the community through philanthropic initiatives.
When most people think about orthodontics, they think of bulky metal braces (mind you, of the past). At Lineberger Orthodontics, you can rest assured we provide only the highest tech ortho options to get you in and out of treatment as quickly as possible!
When it comes to your smile, BE CHOOSY! There are so several orthodontic treatment options available to you in our offices in Charlotte, Mooresville, and Huntersville, so choose the one that fits YOUR style.
Ok, we want you to stop thinking about those horrendous bulky metal brackets and headgear (thanks Sixteen Candles). Seriously, though. Stop, we beg you. Things have come a LONG (and I mean LONG) way in the last even decade.
The Damon System of Braces are self-ligating (which is a strange word to explain that instead of having your brackets and wires tightened throughout treatment, they use a sliding mechanism that attaches the wires to the brackets so your teeth move more naturally).
Invisalign uses a series of customized clear aligners to straighten your smile. No metal brackets. No metal wires. And the best part, theyre removable. So there are NO food restrictions like you have with metal braces. SCORE.
Have you been told youre NOT a candidate for Invisalign? Dont worry. Dont give up hope. Weve had dozens of patients come to us saying that exact thing and guess what, when you have the expertise like we do in Invisalign, you ARE a candidate.
Have you heard of orthognathic surgery or oral and maxillofacial surgery? We think thats WAY too complicated so we just say orthodontic surgery. This is a field of oral surgery that helps with more severe orthodontic conditions that cannot be corrected with braces or Invisalign #bummer.
Orthodontic retainers are most often used after braces or Invisalign treatment is complete (or sometimes in between Phase 1 and Phase 2 in Early Treatment). Retainers do a super awesome job of holding your teeth in place. We worked so hard on that smile. Make sure you take care of it!
Believe us when we say, retainers tend to go missing (ie, Fido gets ahold of them, thrown away on lunch trays weve heard a lot of these stories). The cost of this program FAR beats the cost of replacing retainers.
Shy half-smiles are adorable when youre younger, but that same little grin doesnt play out so well as an adult. In social and professional settings, you need to exude confidence, including the way you show those pearly whites.
You already know the time has come to address the problems with your teeth that keep you from beaming every time you walk into a room. Either your dentist has explained it to you, or your friends have ever so gently recommended you look into orthodontic treatment.
Yes, we know. You would rather listen to fingernails on a chalkboard than have orthodontic treatment at this point in your life, but before you run off, take a few minutes to learn how Lineberger Orthodontics has redefined adult orthodontic treatment.
In most cases, yes. Once we know what direction you want to go to enhance your smile, we review your insurance policy to see where we can use your benefits and best manage your out-of-pocket expenses. If the total cost to you is still a bit of a stretch, we offer in-house financing.
Being a teen is hard. Like really hard. And we dont want to cramp your style. At Lineberger Orthodontics, we know the value of a beautiful smile. We see it every day in our patients. They leave our office with beaming, confident smiles to take on the world. Thats what makes our job worthwhile!
One of the most popular options for teens is our self-ligating braces that come in both traditional and clear! With this revolutionary self-ligating technology, the metal wire is held into place by a moveable component instead of elastic ties. This allows your teeth to move more freely to provide a more comfortable orthodontic experience.
There are certain conditions that may qualify a child for early orthodontic treatment. These might include things like crossbites, crowded teeth or narrow arches. If crowded teeth are fixed at an earlier age, they allow more room for adult teeth to come in and may in turn reduce the need for teeth pulling later in life.
Early prevention starts at age seven, which is when The American Association of Orthodontists recommends parents bring their children to an orthodontist. Dont freak out, mom and dad. This does NOT mean that your 7 year old needs braces. I repeat this does NOT mean your 7 year old needs braces.
At this age, permanent teeth have begun to create a bite pattern and can be examined for irregularities. Starting treatment early may be more beneficial to the patient. An example of this is for treatment of narrow arches. With palate expanders, the arch can be widened so that the top and bottom teeth fit together better, and other issues can be addressed in the second phase of treatment.
Typically, children who need orthodontics at an early age will need another round of treatment once all of the permanent teeth are present. This is referred to as two phase treatment. By dividing the treatment into two different parts, it allows the orthodontist to correct all problems that contribute to overall function of the mouth and teeth.
The second phase of treatment is used to tweak and correct any problems that could not be addressed or fixed by the first phase of treatment. It usually occurs after all permanent teeth have developed and acquired a place within the mouth.

I'm now 24, but I had braces in highschool with a horrible orthodontist and it was an awful experience. Lineberger is amazing. Extremely drastic difference. They don't make it about money (like others) they make it about YOU and want to make you happy with your smile and KEEP you happy even after you're done with your treatment. They are always so kind and accommodating. This will be who I always recommend. Thank you guys for being so amazing.

My experience here was absolutely wonderful, it could not have gone any better. I had invisilign for a little over a year. The staff is so welcoming and great at their job, you're excited to go in and see everyone when you have an appointment. At the end, I had the SMALLEST space in between my front two teeth, I thought it was fine. Dr. Claire insisted I come back until it was perfect, I'm glad she did! They pay attention to every detail. Was a great experience from beginning to end! Everything literally went perfectly, I would highly, highly recommend Lineberger for anyone. Thanks again to the whole staff and Dr. Claire! Cheers, Parris

Just completed my Invisalign journey with Dr. Claire and all I have to say is WOW! Not only is Dr. Claire kind and gentle but she is also a perfectionist! My teeth have never looked better and I owe it all to Dr. Claire! The whole staff at Lineberger Orthodontics is always welcoming and attentive. Shout out to Marissa and CeCe for always taking such good care of me at the Charlotte location!

Is LO great at invisalign? Not sure yet, just started treatment so I can't say for sure. What I can say is that they are not so great at explaining your treatment. Did I get to see a digital rendering of what my teeth will look like after treatment (like what is shown on many invisalign commercials)? Nope. I have no idea how many trays/aligners it will take and what the end result will be. Frustrating considering invisalign is a lifestyle adjustment and somewhat expensive. Maybe they are used to dealing with teens who just don't care about any of that information. But as an adult, who has to do braces for a second time, the more information, the better. I read all the super positive reviews about this office and I couldn't wait to go, but really my experience has just been OK.

Highly recommend Lineberger!!! Office is clean and spacious. Audrey was a pleasure to work with. She helped with scheduling and detailed what to expect in your first consultation. The consultation is pain free and they walk you thru the whole process. Take a few x rays. I got to meet with Dr Dave. He is super knowledgeable and receptive. All in all, I had a very pleasant experience and the best in CLT. I look forward to sending my child there too.

I had a long braces journey and moved to Charlotte when I was about halfway done. I'm so glad I found Lineberger and I wish I could've used them from the beginning. I always felt cared for and everyone was very attentive and detail-oriented. I'll refer anyone and everyone to Lineberger!
