Wright Orthodontics serves Pasadena, Lake Shore, and Riviera Beach from its only office: 479 Jumpers Hole Road, Suite #203, in Severna Park. Dr. Benjamin Wright is a board-certified orthodontist. Your first consultation is complimentary, and you can book it by calling 410-544-0072.
The drive from the center of Pasadena to our office takes about 19 minutes. From Lake Shore, it is about 14 minutes. Every appointment happens at that one office, from the first consultation to the last retainer check. Parking details and current office hours are on our Severna Park office page.
Pasadena is an Anne Arundel County community that reaches the Chesapeake Bay. Its 21122 zip code also covers Lake Shore and Riviera Beach. Chesapeake High School and Northeast High School are both county public high schools with Pasadena addresses. On the water, Downs Park covers 236 acres, with a fishing pier, a playground, and trails.
If you are driving in from Pasadena, it helps to know what kind of practice is at the other end. Wright Orthodontics is a practice that does orthodontics and nothing else. The equipment reflects that: an iTero digital scanner in place of impression putty, and cone beam 3D imaging when a case needs a closer look. General dentists can offer braces and aligners too, and our why choose us page explains what an orthodontic residency adds.
Dr. Wright completed his orthodontic residency in the Air Force after dental school, and he has been in practice for 26 years. Dr. Wright is also a Diplomate of the American Board of Orthodontics, a certification he earned by examination after residency and has maintained through recertification since.
Orthodontic treatment should feel clear and manageable from the start. At Wright Orthodontics, we offer flexible financing and insurance support to help families plan for braces, Invisalign® clear aligners, and other orthodontic treatment options.
Our team will review your treatment cost, explain available payment options, and help you understand what to expect before care begins. Payment plans are no-interest and arranged in house, with monthly payments starting as low as $125. We also work with PPO insurance plans, direct billing, and HSA or FSA funds so patients can make confident decisions about orthodontic care.
For Pasadena adults and teenagers considering Invisalign® clear aligners, the question that matters most is who plans the treatment. Here, Dr. Wright designs each case from a digital scan and checks your progress at every visit. Clear aligners handle crowding, spacing, and many bite problems well, but they do not suit every case. Severe bite problems often do better in braces, which come in metal, clear, and self-ligating versions, and Dr. Wright will tell you at the consultation which way he would go.
Our teen orthodontics and adult orthodontics pages cover treatment at those ages. For younger children, early orthodontic treatment explains what a first check involves.
Braces remain one of the most predictable ways to correct crowding, spacing, and bite concerns. Wright Orthodontics offers metal and clear braces for children, teens, and adults in Severna Park.
Invisalign® clear aligners offer a removable, discreet way to straighten teeth without brackets or wires. Dr. Wright will evaluate your smile and determine if aligners fit your goals.
Airway orthodontics looks at how jaw growth, bite development, and oral structure may affect breathing, sleep, and function. Dr. Wright evaluates each patient to determine appropriate next steps.
For younger children, early orthodontic treatment is about timing rather than hardware, and the first check is usually a short conversation that ends in “not yet.”
Teen orthodontic treatment supports healthy alignment, bite function, and smile confidence during an important stage of growth. Wright Orthodontics offers braces and Invisalign® options for busy teens.
Adult orthodontic treatment can improve alignment, bite comfort, and confidence at any age. Dr. Wright offers clear braces and Invisalign® options designed to fit daily life.
