About Lefort Orthodontics in Lake Charles & Sulphur, LA
Where Columbia-trained expertise meets genuine Louisiana hospitality
How We Got Here
Lefort Orthodontics has been a trusted orthodontic home for families across southwest Louisiana since 2005. Dr. Troy M. Lefort grew up in Cut Off, Louisiana, earned his dental degree from LSU School of Dentistry, and completed his orthodontic residency plus two years of post-doctoral training at Columbia University in New York City. After spending years in one of the most competitive training environments in the country, he chose to bring that knowledge back to his home state.
What started as a single office in Lake Charles has grown into a two-location practice reaching families in Lake Charles, Sulphur, Moss Bluff, Iowa, Vinton, and the surrounding communities. That growth happened one patient at a time, because the approach has never changed: know every patient by name, explain every treatment option clearly, and earn your trust before asking for it. It is an approach rooted in the same community values Dr. Lefort grew up with in south Louisiana.

What Makes This Practice Different
Dr. Lefort is one of the only orthodontists in southwest Louisiana who designs and fabricates custom clear aligners in his own in-house aligner lab. Most practices send your impressions to a third-party manufacturer and wait for trays to arrive. At Lefort Orthodontics, Dr. Lefort personally oversees each aligner from digital scan to finished product, giving you a level of customization and clinical control that national aligner brands cannot match.
That hands-on philosophy extends to every treatment we offer, from traditional and ceramic braces to early orthodontic care for children. Combined with Columbia University training, over 20 years of clinical experience, and a team that genuinely cares about every smile, Lefort Orthodontics delivers orthodontic care that is as personal as it is precise.

Two Offices Built Around Your Schedule
Exceptional orthodontic care should fit into your life, not the other way around. That is why we maintain two fully equipped offices, one in Lake Charles and one in Sulphur, so you can choose the location that works for your schedule and your family.
Both locations offer the same comprehensive treatments, the same experienced team, and the same warm welcome. Whether you are bringing your child in for a first orthodontic evaluation or exploring adult orthodontic options, we make it easy to get started.
