About This Provider

Dr. Corina Radu is a DMD-credentialed orthodontist at Premier Orthodontics & Dental Specialists of Elmhurst, serving patients across Elmhurst and Downers Grove, Illinois. She treats a broad spectrum of cases, from standard teeth straightening to complex airway orthodontics, sleep apnea treatment, and surgical orthodontic coordination, which sets her apart from orthodontists who limit their focus to routine alignment. Dr. Radu uses CBCT 3D imaging, digital scanners, and laser technology to plan each case with clinical precision before treatment begins. Patients across 140 five-star Google reviews consistently note her direct communication style, her ability to explain complex treatment plans in plain language, and her willingness to take on difficult cases that other providers may decline. She offers hidden lingual braces through InBrace, clear aligners through SureSmile, and traditional metal braces, giving each patient multiple treatment paths based on their lifestyle and clinical needs. Reviewers also note that she handles underbite correction, severe crowding, and complicated case continuations with both skill and transparency.
