About Us –
a prominent orthodontics practice near Upper Arlington, Columbus

Our practice, founded by Dr. Hutta, is renowned for its commitment to excellence and patient satisfaction. Dr. Hutta and Dr. K’s extensive experience and passion for orthodontics are evident in the personalized care provided to each patient.
At HOS, we also understand that orthodontic treatment is an investment, and are proud to offer flexible financing options to make care more affordable. Our team will work with you to find a payment plan that fits your budget, timeline, and goals, ensuring that financial concerns do not hinder achieving beautiful results.
Outside of insurance, we offer three different payment plan options. Patients can pay in full with cash, check, credit card, flex spending, or health savings. This method provides the best savings, as special discounts are available. We also offer in-house financing to all our patients. At the beginning of treatment, patients simply give us a down payment and then make interest-free payments over the length of their treatment timeline. Lastly, we accept CareCredit, a medical credit account you can apply for online or at this link: carecredit.com. CareCredit allows patients to finance care over long-term payment plans, some of which are interest-free.
We also proudly offer a first responders discount– contact our office to determine if you qualify for these savings!
Meet Our Team
Dr. J. Lawrence Hutta
Dr. J. Lawrence Hutta, known for his outstanding results, innovative techniques, and kind disposition, is a revered orthodontist throughout the Midwest. Thus, it’s no surprise that tens of thousands of patients have trusted their smiles to Dr. Hutta. While he is a member of the prestigious American Association of Orthodontics, the Ohio Dental Association, and The Columbus Dental Society, he is also busy educating the next generation of orthodontists as a faculty member at The Ohio State University College of Dentistry, where he gives frequent lectures. Furthermore, Dr. Hutta had the privilege of being a Diplomate of The American Board of Orthodontics, an honor held by only a select few orthodontists.
As a proud supporter of the community, Dr. Hutta supports numerous local Columbus schools, giving scholarships to standout high school graduates. In his free time, Dr. Hutta enjoys playing golf, attending OSU athletic events, and spending time with his family.
Dr. Pegah Kamrani
Dr. Pegah Kamrani is a talented, passionate, and hardworking orthodontist, skilled in advanced treatments, including early care, braces, and clear aligners. She graduated from Columbia University with a degree in neuroscience before attending the University of North Carolina Adams School of Dentistry, where she received her DDS. Dr. K went on to complete her residency and earn her masters at Ohio State University.
Outside of work, Dr. Kamrani is a fervent runner, competing alongside the Columbus Running Company Elite Team and frequently training for marathons. She also loves spending her free time cheering on the Carolina Tar Heels and Ohio State Buckeyes and hanging out with friends and family.
Treatment Options and Orthodontic Services
We understand that every patient is unique, and so is their treatment plan. Our orthodontists take the time to thoroughly assess your oral condition and create a customized plan that addresses your specific needs and goals. This personalized approach ensures the most effective and efficient treatment possible.
Braces
HOS offers both Damon and Insignia Braces. Self-ligating Damon Braces use an open and shut door mechanism to reduce the pressure applied to your teeth, making treatment faster and more effective. This gentler approach to orthodontics better supports movement of each tooth while also being more comfortable than traditional braces. With Damon, there are no elastics required and the brackets are much smaller, making the braces more discreet and your teeth easier to clean.
Insignia, however, uses 3D digital imaging technology to map out your entire treatment ahead of time, allowing us to see your future smile before the braces are even installed. These highly innovative orthodontic services are top-of-the-line and enable our expert orthodontists to anticipate precisely how teeth will shift while preemptively spotting and correcting problems. Furthermore, all adjustments are custom-designed to bring optimal results with greater comfort and efficiency. These completely individualized appliances move teeth into their best possible position with more speed and accuracy than traditional braces or treatments, ensuring patients are satisfied with their smiles.
Clear Aligners
While braces are a common orthodontic tool, some children and adults prefer clear aligners, similar to Invisalign. These clear aligners are more discreet and don’t require patients to adhere to food restrictions. Our team can create 3D, custom-printed aligners right here in our Columbus office. Lose a tray or need a quick adjustment to your treatment plan? Because we work with our in-house 3D printer, we can nimbly adapt to your needs—no more waiting for replacements. Furthermore, this technology achieves stunning results quickly, comfortably, and affordably.
Once the process is complete, retaining your new smile is crucial. At HOS, we provide custom-made orthodontic retainers to ensure that your teeth remain in their new, aligned position. Our orthodontists will guide you on caring for these retainers, as oral health is a top priority.
