Dr. Jessica Hedger holds a DMD and a Master of Science degree, credentials that reflect advanced specialty training in orthodontics beyond dental school. She practices at DiFranco Orthodontics in Park Ridge, Illinois, a Northwest Chicago-area practice that has served families in the community since 1985. Dr. Hedger treats patients across all age groups, from children as young as six receiving early-phase guidance through adults seeking a discreet path to straighter teeth. She works with the full spectrum of orthodontic concerns: crowding, bite misalignment, jaw discrepancies, and malocclusion. Her clinical workflow incorporates digital scanning and 3D treatment planning, which replace traditional impressions with precise digital maps of each patient's bite and jaw. That data informs treatment plans built around each individual, whether the right fit is Invisalign, clear braces, traditional metal braces, or surgical orthodontic coordination for complex jaw cases. For patients with time constraints, accelerated orthodontic options are also available. DiFranco Orthodontics holds a 4.9-star Google rating across more than 400 patient reviews.
