Invisalign Clear Aligners

Invisalign clear aligners offer a nearly invisible way to straighten your teeth using custom-made, removable trays. They are comfortable and convenient, allowing you to eat, brush, and floss easily while gradually improving your smile.

Spark Clear Aligners

Spark clear aligners provide a modern and highly aesthetic solution for straightening teeth. Known for their clarity and comfort, they deliver precise movement while fitting seamlessly into your daily routine and supporting a confident smile.

Clear Braces

Clear braces use tooth-colored materials to create a more discreet alternative to traditional braces. They provide reliable results while blending naturally with your teeth, making them a great option for teens and adults seeking subtle treatment.

Metal Braces

Metal braces are a trusted and effective solution for correcting a wide range of orthodontic issues. Modern designs are smaller and more comfortable, providing precise control and predictable results for patients of all ages.

Comprehensive Care for All Ages

At Nudera Orthodontic Group, we provide comprehensive orthodontic care for children, teens, and adults. Dr. James and Dr. Robert Nudera create personalized treatment plans using advanced technology to ensure efficient, comfortable, and long-lasting results for every stage of life.

Early Treatment

Early orthodontic treatment helps guide jaw development, create space for incoming teeth, and prevent more serious issues later. Starting at the right time can improve function, appearance, and overall long-term dental health.

Teen Treatment

Teen orthodontic treatment addresses alignment, spacing, and bite concerns once permanent teeth are in place. This stage allows for efficient, predictable results while helping teens build confidence with a healthy, well-aligned smile.

Adult Treatment

Adult orthodontic treatment offers discreet and effective solutions to improve alignment, bite function, and overall oral health. It is never too late to achieve a confident smile with modern options designed for comfort.

Why Patients Choose Nudera

OMG. THEE BEST EXPERIENCE!!! Ok this HAS to be the best team in the area! If you’re looking for the orthodontics out there, I can’t recommend Flanagan Orthodontics enough! From start to finish, the entire team made every visit feel welcoming, fun, and stress-free. Their Halloween costumes every year were legendary 😂 and honestly made appointments something to look forward to. What really stood out to me was how patient and kind they were no matter what. Broken retainer? Popped wire? Multiple “uhhh… I did it again” moments? 😅 Never once did they make me feel bad about it. They always took care of me with a smile and made the process easy. Iykyk lol. Professional, caring, fun, and just an all-around amazing team. Hands down the best orthodontic office out there! Highly recommend to anyone looking for a place that truly treats you like family

Dr. Jim is knowledgeable, explains why and what he is doing and is quite friendly. I believe his involvement is a plus to my health. Welcome to Rockford.

My experience with Dr. Flanagan and his staff has been an exemplary experience. Most dread going to a dentist, this outfit will change your mind. Lauri Cox is the face of this company. She worked with me through a very difficult time in my life. (I got hit by a semi on my motorcycle). The year of recovery delayed my getting Invisiline. She reassured me that when I was ready they would be there for me. Lauri guided me through the financial aspect of getting invisiline in a way that worked for my situation. I can attest that all of Dr. Flanagan's staff are very helpful and professional now that I am wearing my first retainer. I am very grateful to Lauri and Dr. Flanagan's team. The new partners are very affable and friendly. They answered my questions and adjusted my retainer a bit. The staff that support them continue to provide excellent service to clients.

It was fast and the assistants engaged in talking with me and my brother a lot, they were very nice as well as Jim.

First time meeting Dr Bob and was super friendly and knowledgeable, so happy to be here

Lori and Dr Jim were amazing. Explained everything to both Logan and myself. Very friendly and informative. Appointment was easy to make and when we got there the staff was friendly. They explained everything that was going to happen and what to expect. Easy to work with. Highly recommend!

I loved everything about our experience. Everyone was great.

The staff is wonderful. So welcoming and professional. They do great work. Would highly recommend.

They are such kind gentlemen, and are skilled with what they do.

Genuinely was very efficient & amazing service. Very clean facility too, definitely recommend coming here!

My son’s consultation was a great experience. Everyone was so nice and extremely friendly. We even learned about the old Olympic sport of Snow Ballet (Dancing)…LOL

Great experience! Everyone was amazing with my daughter and made her feel completely comfortable. She’s excited to go back!

Staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. Dr. Flannigan and staff made the whole process easy and enjoyable. I will highly recommend this location

Angelique Thomas

We absolutely have loved Flannigan Orthodontics- both my kids went for early screenings every 6 months. The fact that we never felt rushed into multiple rounds of braces for no reason was a huge bonus. The staff are wonderful and most recently both my kids (11) have met Dr.Nudera and were very comfortable with him. Which is awesome because we were all a bit worried with the change over. He was so kind to them and explained everything to me as well. We highly recommend this office for orthodontic care!!

The level of professionalism and compassion here is outstanding. The staff were especially amazing with my child, who has autism. They were patient, respectful, and created a calm environment that made the visit go smoothly. We felt supported the entire time.

Everyone was ssssooo nice! I was expecting to go to an office where I’d be pressured into work my daughter may or may not need, then pushed into a credit card when I said I won’t be able to afford the full amount of expensive work, with uncouth doctors and standoffish staff. BUT to my surprise everyone was so friendly, conservative with the braces that will need to be done at a later time, and the candy counter was the cherry on top! Thank you everyone for such a great experience. They speak to you in easy to understand words, no scary medical terms I can’t understand, awesome prizes for the kids! Made me feel welcome and so much more comfortable with going to dentists. 👍🏼😄 can’t speak highly enough of Dr. Flanagan’s office.

Jennifer Langusch

What an amazing office! As we arrived for our very first visit, we saw a “welcome new patients” sign with my son’s name on it. He smiled so big. We open the door and immediately know this place is special. The warmth and friendliness of the staff was felt from the reception desk all the way through the exam/consult and as we left. My son, who is only 8, was a little nervous about going to the orthodontist, but after that initial visit, I have to say he is excited about going back. He felt comfortable with everyone. They explained things so he could easily understand and take better care of his teeth. I can’t say enough about the staff and doctor here…they are just the best!

Lori is the best she made us feel welcome and answered all of our questions!!! We are exited to start treatment!!

Jessica Nehring

My son is a new patient and we have had a wonderful experience so far. All the staff has been so kind, prepared us for what is to come with orthodontics and has answered questions patiently. It is also wonderful that they have little prizes and candy for their patients at the end of each visit. Can not recommend this place enough!

So accommodating and they put the individual first. My daughter has autism and they went with the flow. This is my second kid with braces. I truly feel like they care. Highly recommend

Always friendly, knowledgeable, timely and a very well run and organized office. Would endorse wholeheartedly.

Dr. Flanagan keeps you updated with the progress at each appointment. He is very kind and the staff are just as awesome.

Priscilla Farfan

Easy access to building. Well greeted by staff. Technician was very friendly and professional. Diagnostic equipment showed my situation. Dr. Flanagan was friendly and professional discussion of my options and treatment.
