Your teeth are beautiful.
They’re just in the wrong place.
Welcome to Gil Orthodontics — where creating a beautiful smile is about more than moving teeth. It’s about getting to know you, paying attention to the details, and creating an experience that feels personal from the very beginning. Whether you're starting treatment for the first time, exploring clear aligners, or simply wondering what’s possible, we're so glad you're here.
Your teeth may be in the wrong place. You definitely aren’t.
Maybe the better question is: where will you take your new smile?
Life has a funny way of taking us in all kinds of directions — a new school, a new city, a first date, a big interview, a stage, a starting line, or a dream you haven’t even discovered yet. A confident smile can help you show up for all of it with a little more freedom to laugh without hesitation, speak up without second-guessing, take chances, and be authentically yourself.
From our home in Dripping Springs, we’re proud to care for smiles throughout the Texas Hill Country. And if you know Dr. Gil, you know she’s always on the GO, too — usually with her two little ones in tow, searching for the newest restaurant with a playground, cheering from the sidelines at tee ball, running to dance class, or squeezing in one more playdate. Because life is meant to be lived, and there are so many places to GO.
Whether you’re considering braces, clear aligners, or simply wondering what’s possible, we’re here to make your orthodontic journey personal, thoughtful, and exciting from beginning to end.
Your smile can take you places. We can’t wait to see where you take it — and to GO there with you.

Let’s Talk About Your Smile
Every smile is different, and so is every orthodontic journey. Explore the treatment options we offer and learn how Dr. Gil approaches each one with your individual needs, lifestyle, and goals in mind.
-
Braces have come a long way. Today’s options are more comfortable, more discreet, and more streamlined than the braces many of us remember growing up with — and they aren't just for kids. Whether you're a child, teen, or adult, Dr. Gil will help you determine if braces are the right fit for your smile and your goals.
-
Zoom. FaceTime. Social media. Selfies. Our faces have never been quite so...in our face. Clear aligners offer a discreet way to straighten your teeth while fitting seamlessly into your everyday life. But aligners aren't right for everyone. Dr. Gil takes a thoughtful, individualized approach to determining whether clear aligners are the best option for your smile — including the pros, the cons, and what you can realistically expect from treatment.
-
The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that children have their first orthodontic evaluation by age 7 — but that doesn't mean your child needs braces at 7. At that first visit, Dr. Gil is looking at how your child's teeth and jaws are developing, whether there are potential problems to address early, and whether the best plan is treatment now, treatment later, or simply keeping an eye on things as they grow.
-
The best way to protect your new smile? Wear your retainers. Dr. Gil believes the best retainer is the one you're actually going to wear. That's why we offer different retention options and work with each patient to find a solution that fits their lifestyle and helps keep their smile where it belongs.
-
We believe achieving the smile you want shouldn't feel like a financial burden. Gil Orthodontics offers 0% financing, accepts most major credit cards and insurance plans, and accepts eligible Health Savings and Flexible Spending Account funds. Our team will work with you to find a payment option that makes orthodontic treatment feel achievable and comfortable for your family.
-
Wondering if orthodontic treatment is right for you or your child? Start with a conversation. New patients are invited to schedule a complimentary, no-pressure consultation with our team. We'll take the time to understand your goals, answer your questions, and help you understand your options — with no obligation to start treatment.
Why go with Gil?
-
Dr. Gil is a board-certified orthodontist, a distinction held by only a portion of orthodontists who choose to pursue the additional examination and certification process. Her advanced orthodontic training and commitment to continuing education mean you can feel confident that your smile is in experienced hands.
-
We use technology not because it’s new, but because it makes orthodontic treatment better. From 3D digital imaging and impressionless scans to indirect bonding and 3D-printed appliances, our technology helps us plan treatment with precision, create a more comfortable experience, and customize your care from the very beginning.
-
At Gil Orthodontics, you're more than a set of teeth on a screen. Dr. Gil takes the time to get to know you — your personality, your goals, your lifestyle, and what matters to you. She’s invested in the person behind the smile, because the best treatment plan isn't just one that works clinically; it's one that works for your life.
Your new smile is just around the corner
