Dr. Ila Sayed, DDS, MSD, Independence Township, MI

About Dr. Ila Sayed

Dr. Ila Sayed is an orthodontist serving patients in Clarkston, MI, offering braces, Invisalign, and clear aligner treatment for children, teens, and adults. She completed her orthodontic residency and earned her Master of Science in Dentistry from the University of the Pacific's Arthur A. Dugoni School of Dentistry, following her dental degree from the University of Detroit Mercy School of Dentistry. At her Clarkston orthodontic practice, Dr. Sayed treats crowding, overbites, underbites, crossbites, and other alignment and bite issues using traditional metal braces, clear ceramic braces, and Invisalign clear aligners. She also provides early orthodontic treatment for kids, helping catch alignment problems while children are still growing, along with orthodontic care for more complex craniofacial cases using advanced 3D digital imaging for precise treatment planning. Her research background sets her apart: as principal investigator, she studied orofacial cleft treatment protocols internationally, and her work on CBCT imaging diagnostics earned her a Certificate of Excellence in Orthodontics Research — giving her added expertise in cases involving jaw alignment and airway health. Dr. Sayed speaks Spanish fluently with working knowledge of Arabic, and has spent years volunteering in underserved communities, including dental outreach trips abroad. Whether you're looking for a Clarkston orthodontist for your child's first evaluation, braces as a teen, or Invisalign as an adult, Dr. Sayed offers personalized, evidence-based orthodontic care for the whole family.
