About Dr. Chelesa Phillips

** Please expect a call and email from the practice after making an appointment to confirm and verify your personal information and insurance information** Dr. Chelesa Phillips, our new orthodontist, who brings with her an inspiring journey, a passion for community, and a deep commitment to providing exceptional care. At our office, she provides orthodontic treatment to both adults and children - including, but not limited to, traditional braces, clear braces, phase I interceptive treatment for younger children (with or without palatal expanders), and Invisalign®. Dr. Phillips earned her Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from Howard University College of Dentistry and completed her orthodontic residency and Master’s Degree in Orthodontics at Saint Louis University. After finishing her education, Dr. Phillips began practicing in the New Orleans area to stay closer to her family in her hometown of Houston, Texas. She happily returned to the Washington, DC area - the community she loves and is proud to serve - in 2018 and has been practicing in the DMV area since. For Dr. Phillips, orthodontics is more than just straightening teeth—it’s about building confidence, supporting families, and creating a lasting impact on her patients as well as the greater community. Today, she honors the mentors who supported her by giving back daily—especially through mentorship of her young patients. Whether witnessing the personal growth of her patients or celebrating a child’s scholastic and extracurricular achievements, Dr. Phillips treasures the moments when her work extends beyond the dental chair and into the lives of those she serves.
