Trusted Orthodontic Care in Citrus County
Welcome to Strouse Orthodontics, your trusted Lecanto orthodontist located on North Dacie Point in the heart of Citrus County. For over 20 years, families across Citrus County have chosen Dr. Eric Strouse for braces, Invisalign, and early orthodontic treatment — because he's an orthodontic specialist, a Citrus County Chronicle columnist, and a six-time winner of the Hernando Sun Readers' Choice Award for Best Orthodontist.
Whether you're a parent looking for early treatment for your child, a teen ready for braces, or an adult who's finally decided it's time — we offer every treatment option, custom designed around your face and your goals. No cookie-cutter plans. No chain-clinic experience.
We serve patients from Lecanto, Crystal River, Inverness, Homosassa, Beverly Hills, Citrus Springs, Floral City, and communities throughout Citrus County and northern Hernando County.
Our Lecanto Orthodontic Services
Metal Braces— Modern, efficient treatment for teens and adults. The most time-tested option for complex cases.
Clear Ceramic Braces — Tooth-colored brackets that blend in. Discreet and effective for patients who want a less visible look.
Clear Aligners — Nearly invisible clear aligners for teens and adults. Dr. Strouse is an experienced Invisalign provider serving Spring Hill and Hernando County.
Early Orthodontics (Phase 1) — Treatment for growing children, typically starting around age 7–10. Catches problems early and can reduce or eliminate the need for braces later.
Adult Orthodontics — Flexible treatment options designed around busy adult schedules. More adults than ever are choosing braces and Invisalign — and we make it easy.
Expanders - Palatal expanders — For growing patients who need jaw development support before full treatment.
Surgical Orthodontics — Advanced treatment for patients with significant bite or jaw concerns, coordinated with oral surgeons.
Retainers— Custom retainers to protect your results after treatment. We offer both fixed and removable options.
MARPE— A minimally invasive expander for older teens and adults who need palatal expansion but have finished growing. Expands the upper jaw and nasal airway, improving breathing and bite — often eliminating the need for jaw surgery.
All treatment plans are custom designed by Dr. Strouse using a face-first planning approach — meaning your smile is designed to fit your face, not a template. No goopy impressions. No cookie-cutter plans. Just precise, personalized care.
All treatments are custom designed by Dr. Strouse using a face first treatment planning approach. No goopy impressions and no cookie cutter plans.
Why Lecanto Families Choose Us
Why Citrus County Families Choose Strouse Orthodontics
Specialist-Level Care, Locally Owned Dr. Strouse is an orthodontic specialist — not a general dentist offering braces on the side. He has lectured to orthodontic residents on advanced clear aligner techniques, is a regular health columnist in the Citrus County Chronicle, and has been voted Best Orthodontist by Hernando Sun Readers' Choice six years in a row. When you come here, you're being treated by someone who has dedicated his entire career to this one specialty.
Technology That Saves You Time We use iTero® digital scanners — no goopy impressions, ever. Combined with in-house 3D printing, your treatment can start faster than at most offices. Digital scanning is also more accurate, which means better-fitting aligners and braces from day one.
Custom Treatment for Every Age From a 7-year-old's first orthodontic evaluation to an adult's Invisalign transformation, every plan is built specifically for that patient. We treat the whole face, not just the teeth.
Transparent Pricing and Flexible Financing We believe cost should never be a barrier to a great smile. We offer flexible monthly payment plans, work with most major insurance providers, and provide full cost transparency at your first visit. No surprise fees.
