I would 100% recommend Barakat Orthodontics to anyone looking for ortho work done."
"Barakat Orthodontics is absolutely wonderful. The staff is consistently kind, professional, and welcoming, and Dr. Barakat is an excellent orthodontist who truly cares about her patients.

I highly recommend Barakat Orthodontics to any family looking for exceptional orthodontic care."

"Staff is absolutely the best! They are kind, caring, and knowledgeable! Always a wonderful experience. They listen to you and work with you on your needs. Dr. Barakat is also amazing! Iāve never walked in there and walked out upset or disappointed!

"Being in the dental field and having had braces and Invisalign a few times in my life, I must say that my experience at Dr. Barakat's office was stellar!

"Dr. Barakat was amazing! She was able to put my 11 year old at ease and offered to put his braces on immediately when she recognized his anxiety building. He got the big hurdle out of the way and discovered it wasnāt all that bad! 5/21/25 update- Still totally love our Barakat Orthodontics experience! Both of my kids' smiles are looking great and the appointments are quick and easy!"

"I've been with Dr Barakat for years now. Her quality of care and lighthearted personality has always made me feel safe, heard, and in good hands. I originally started with an underbite where she and her team helped me prepare for my double jaw surgery that required braces in preparation of the surgery. She and the surgeon worked every step of the way with me on this journey and I couldn't be happier with the results. I dont leave reviews often but this was needed given how much my life and self image has changed because of her. Thank you again Dr Barakat and your team, truly life changing experience. 100% recommend."
"This place is the Disney of all orthodontics offices! From the moment I got on a call with them to schedule my free consultation to the moment we step out of the office (the kids didn't even want to leave, it was THAT pleasant of a place) we had such a great experience. I called on a Friday afternoon only a couple hours before they close asking if they can schedule my two kids for a consultation. The nicest lady name Dawn helped me with the scheduling for the SAME day! Then we went there and were greeted by all of the staff! Val helped us with all of our questions, she was super nice and very polite, had a nice small on the entire time. Explained the process to me and my two kids, went over the payment plans, etc. There was a cart filled with all kind of treats and my kids had a blast. They use the latest and greatest technologies to take the X-Rays, scan the mouth, etc. Dr. Barakat is a very experienced doctor, she was so kind to us and went over everything with us. These nice staff helped us so much today and made us feel very welcome: Canan, Dawn, Val, Kelly, Kris, Genesis,Marjorie and Amanda. The office was packed filled with patients, that alone shows how experience the doctor is and how much they care about their patients. Each of my kids got a treatment plan tailored for their specific needs, customized for them so they can be happy with their braces and Invisalign. I went to other places (very famous ones in the area) and none impressed me (treatment wise, price wise and experience wise), Dr. Barakat and Val helped me so much with selecting treatments for each of my kids and we left the place knowing we are going to be in great hands!"
"This is the best orthodontist location in Northern Virginia.I highly recommend it if you have a son or daughter trying to get their teeth fixed.They are the best source of braces or any other appliance your child may need. All the staff is very nice and cooperative, they are all very professional and know how to calm down your kids if they are anxious. Always very knowledgeable and ready to answer all your questions."
"Itās the best place in the world, and it doesnāt hurt to get braces or Invisalign. It is very fun, you get to meet new people, and the people who work here are very nice. I have a great time here! (Age 8)From mom- very easy to work with, and flexible since we commute from closer to Winchester."

"We learned when my daughter was in 4th grade that she had a long road of orthodontics ahead of her (palate expansion, impacted adult tooth, crowding, etc.). We knew it would be tough, but it turned out to be so much easier than we ever imagined thanks to Dr. Barakat and her extraordinary team. Expertise, kindness and positivity are their hallmarks. They were also flexible with payment plans. I, as a parent highly recommend Barakat Orthodontics and my daughter tells all her friends about the practice and her great experience all the time! We will actually miss seeing the team now that her braces are off, but wish them all our best!"
"My experience with Dr Barakat and her staff have been so great, I told my family that my little brother HAD to come to her office for his braces journey. Dr Barakat has helped rectify some wrongs caused by other poor practices and has always had my full confidence in my post-ortho treatment. I was not 100% happy with my ortho results with another doctor, so I came straight here and she helped build a plan that worked for me and my particular situation. Today, I am picking up my new Invisalign aligners and ready to fix everything that I was upset with before!!! I tried another aligner companyš„“they were beyond THICK and uncomfortable, my top lip would always get stuck on themā¦ Invisalign with Dr Barakat? BARELY FEEL THEM!!! Love Dr Barakat, love her staff, would recommend to any looking to start a braces journey, or fix a previous oneš"

"The team at Barakat Orthodontics is amazing ā Theyāre very friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating!I saw Dr. Barakat in the past, when I did my phase 1 & 2 braces back in grade school and her team did a great job then, so it made sense to come back when I decided to start my Invisalign journey last year (about a 12 year gap between braces and Invisalign)!Iām in love with my smile and I couldnāt have asked for a better team to help me achieve it.

They explained each step for how the process of getting braces would be and they were always right. I loved going in for my visits because I could choose any color for a different look each time. Their entire staff is always so friendly. So many of my friends at my school are wearing braces and they all see Dr. Barakat. She's very kind and is always smiling. The most exciting part was getting my braces off. The entire staff gave me a HUGE CELEBRATION which includes pictures, videos, treats and Barakat bucks. I actually earned over 50 during my treatments and I can cash them in for movie tickets or gift cards. My parents were always happy with the staff and they are extremely happy for me. The extra treats in the waiting room has always been something that we all look forward to during each visit."

"Dr. Barakat is an amazing orthodontist! Invisalign was the best course of treatment for me and I couldn't be happier! It was easy to get used to the aligners. I didn't really think my teeth were that crooked, but the before and after pictures really show such a difference in my smile and my teeth are so much straighter. My dentist had been telling me for a couple of years that my teeth were definitely shifting forward and that it would continue to get worse. I am so glad I got treatment and it feels great to be in my 40s and have straight teeth and a great smile.Barakat Orthodontics is a place where you feel welcome and not self-conscious. Each appointment was timely and efficient, something a Mom can appreciate with all of the different doctor visits that you go to with your kids. I highly recommend Dr. Barakat and her staff."
"Everyone that works at the Barakat office is unbelievably friendly and very easy to talk to. The only thing that I didn't like was when we took the pictures and the mirror was wedged into my mouth lol. Getting my braces off was fantastic! I thought everyone was exaggerating how weird it felt but no. It felt weirder than I ever could have imagined. Eat a banana first thing when you get them off if you want it to feel EVEN WIERDER lol"
"The time I spent at Barakat Orthodintics was amazing! Everyone who worked there made the situation of getting braces a lot less stressful than I thought it would be. Everyone was always so positive and optimistic and I felt welcome every time I walked through the door. Thanks for the great experience!"
"This place honestly felt like a second home, and the people here felt like a second family. I enter with a smile and leave with a smile. Everyone greets me with a smile and leave me with a smile. It's the best when every time I look in the mirror my teeth looks and feels better and better, all thanks to the entire crew. Every individual left me with good impressions and good memories. I kinda wanted to keep my braces just so I have an excuse to revisit :)"
"I wasn't really looking forward to braces, but these guys made it bareable and even fun! My teeth look amazing!! Thanks so much"
"Dr. Barakat and her staff are fantastic!! My daughter had fears about having braces but they were able to lower her stress level. Now that she has her braces off her teeth look excellent. Thank you so much fr this experiences do also all the community service you do in our neighborhood. We will see you in a couple years for my son."
"They did great! they took so much care into there work and made me comfortable. I had braces for 1 1/2 years and they look and feel perfect."
"If I could give you 11 stars I would!! I was so nervous when I first came to the office but the friendliness I received from the first moment I walked through the door put me (and my mom) at ease. Getting my braces put on was easier than I thought it was going to be! I thought it would hurt a lot but it didn't at all! I really liked how we took lots of pictures before I got them on so I can see how my teeth, bite, and even my face has changed in just a year and a half. Thanks Dr. Barakat and everyone else at the office!"
"I was kind of scared at first to get braces because I thought it would hurt getting them on, but they didn't hurt at all. They do a great job of asking how you are and if anything hurts. I'm telling you, it's so worth getting braces because when you get them off, your teeth look so good. It is very satisfying to see that your teeth are straight and that they look good."
"You guys did an amazing job! I liked my braces, especially the hearts on my top set of teeth. I would recommend you guys to whoever needs braces. You guys are awesome!!"
"Dr. Barakat and staff were great throughout my second go around with braces (traditional braces as a teen and now Invisalign as a 20-something working professional. They always worked with me in finding a time that I could come in with my busy work schedule, were always friendly and sociable, and worked carefully yet quickly and always took me on time for my appointment. Thanks, Dr. Barakat and crew!"
"The service I received at Barakat orthodontics was highly favorable. I have experienced braces and invisiline, I prefer invisiline over braces personally because they can be taken out. Also there is lower chance of getting things stuck in your teeth with invisiline."
"It was really good and I got my braces off in no time! Now my teeth look really great!"
"At first the thought of getting braces is nerve wrecking, but once they're in the process of putting them on everything is okay. Everyone here knows what they're doing and they make you feel like everything is going just right and fine. Getting braces doesn't hurt!"
"We're just starting a round of treatment here, but one of our friends has 3 (soon to be 4) kids going through treatment here (both Invisalign and metal braces) and Barakat came highly recommended:My daughter's review so far:"I am so excited to get my Invisalign! I think that getting Invisalign is very cool because they are invisible and almost everyone else has metal braces. I really love the fact that they are removable! I really love the office here and all of the staff.""
"The service was awesome and the orthodontists were very kind and did a great job. The feeling of seeing my teeth without braces was awesome. Go Barakat Orthodontics!"
"They did a really amazing job with my braces and were super nice and friendly every single time I went!"
"I have known Dr. Barakat and most of her staff for over 15 years. She has seen all 3 of my children as well as 2 nieces and 2 nephews. Both of my girls have competed their treatment , my younger daughter just had hers removed today. Both have beautiful smiles. My son is close to completion . They were not the easiest of cases, but because we took Dr, Barakats advice and intervened early on we were able to avoid years of braces. I cannot say enough about her practice. Her staff is awesome! So very kind and always willing to help. Thank You Dr. Barakat and staff for another job well done! My children have beautiful smiles because of you! Would highly recommend her to everyone! You will be very happy, trust me!"
"I used Dr. Barakat about 18 years ago for braces. I did not follow her advise to use a retainer and my teeth need to be corrected again. She has changed of..."
"Back in 04-05 when I first got my braces, I was a little timid and shy when it came down to showing my teeth. I knew I was in great hands especially when Dr. Barakat told me not to worry because once the braces are off my smile would be gorgeous. So when I took them off and immediately started getting compliments on how amazing my smile looks, my confidence boosted by 100. Come senior year, I was up for Best Smile in my Senior class and well what can I say I owe it all to Dr. B. She's amazing at having the ability to change lives. I now know that because of her I'm able to be confident in my smile and show my teeth off at anyone whose willing to look at them. Thank you Dr. Barakat and the proud staff of Barakat Orthodontics..."
"I got my braces for the first time in 5th grade! Almost 5 years later, the process is over and I am extremely happy! I feel more confident and Dr. Barakat and her team helped give me a smile I'm proud of! Thank you!"
"Everyone loves a great smile, so do we. That is why we went to Barakat Orthodontics to have my daughter, Priscilla Leon. get hers. Today, Priscilla had her phase II braces removed, as she completed her treatment. As promised, she now has her own beautiful smile, and she is very proud and love it!! Thank you Dr. Barakat and staff for a job well done! You were not only on target as to the results and schedule, but your team of experts made the process easy and fun from beginning to end. We love you all!!See you soon!"
"When I decided I needed dental restoration starting with braces I visited several orthodontists in the northern Virginia area. None were as caring and supportive as Dr Barakat. She spent time understanding my expectations and concerns, she worked with my dentist and oral surgeon to ensure my treatment was timely and effective. Her staff is amazing; always friendly and supportive. A great place to start the rest of your life!!!!!"
"Our experience with Barakat Orhodontics has been exceptional. Knowing that braces for a pre-teen is certainly an 'investment' Dr. Barakat and her amazing staff has found a wonderful blend of professionalism with cutting edge technology that immediately comforted not only our daughter but also our decision to use their services. I offer my highest recommendation for any family in need of orthodontic services."
