Meet Your Orthodontists in Vallejo
Meet Dr. Wendan Li
Orthodontist
Dr. Li graduated magna cum laude from Columbia University with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Neuroscience and went on to receive her DDS from the University of California, San Francisco. Subsequently, she returned to her alma mater Columbia, where she received her Certificate in Orthodontics and Master of Science and served as Chief Resident.
Dr. Li’s passion for orthodontics is driven by her own personal experience. She did not receive orthodontic treatment growing up like most kids, but pursued braces later in life as an adult, while in dental school. Undergoing treatment gave her a unique perspective into the life-changing power of orthodontics, which consequently led Dr. Li to pursue Orthodontics to obtain the knowledge to be able to give that same transformative joy to others. Dr. Li finds it a privilege and an honor as an orthodontist to help patients as they start their journey toward achieving healthy, beautiful, and confident smiles.
Her #1 advice for all her patients is to keep your teeth clean, wear elastics as instructed, and avoid foods that could break your braces, as this ensures that treatment is as quick and successful as possible. With Dr. Li as your orthodontist, she promises to make the patient experience seamless, by making you feel comfortable while having fun! She hopes her patients will look forward to coming to their appointments and stay motivated about completing their orthodontic journey.
When Dr. Li is not creating smiles, she enjoys traveling, trying new restaurants, hiking, watching movies, listening to podcasts, and reading. She’s an avid home cook and baker and loves trying new recipes. One of her favorite cuisines is her native Chinese food because of the wide variety of dishes. Dr. Li lives in San Francisco with her husband and is a huge fan of the Warriors & Jeopardy.
Meet Dr. Rael Bernstein
Orthodontist
Dr. Bernstein was born and raised in South Africa and attended the prestigious Wits Dental School, where he finished at the top of his class. He then completed his orthodontic specialty residency at the State University of New York at Buffalo.
After his residency, he accepted a university fellowship position, where he became a clinical assistant professor in the orthodontic department.
He yearned for a climate similar to South Africa and decided to relocate to Southern California, where he met his wife, Debbie, also a dental specialist.
He opened his first orthodontic practice shortly after.
Dr. Bernstein is committed to excellence in orthodontics. He has lectured nationally on self-ligation and early interceptive treatment to other orthodontists and dentists. He strives to provide the latest and greatest to all of his patients in a friendly, upbeat atmosphere.
In his spare time, Dr. Bernstein enjoys racing go-karts, working out, snowboarding in winter, and devoting himself to his wife and two daughters by going to birthday parties, ballet recitals, gymnastics classes, and more.

Vallejo Braces
People everywhere know traditional braces as one of the strongest and most efficient orthodontic tools to straighten teeth and fix a smile. Metal or ceramic brackets are attached to the teeth, then connected by wires and tiny rubber bands or elastics.
Our orthodontists at WOW! Smiles™ create gentle pressure using brackets, wires, and bands that work together to slowly straighten your teeth. Vallejo braces are an excellent choice for correcting several tooth issues, from simple to complex.
Because they can sometimes work faster at closing gaps and aligning teeth than other options, braces may reduce your total time in braces.
The industry has come a long way as far as orthodontic technology is concerned, and we’re excited to offer the latest and greatest self-ligating braces to our patients at WOW! Smiles.
Our Pitts 21 self-ligating braces are a revolutionary treatment option that provides greater comfort, faster results, and fewer appointments. Sounds great, right? These braces are unique because it uses light, low-friction force to move your teeth into place with greater control and better results.
Plus, traditional braces don’t require some of the more complicated technology or expensive equipment that newer treatments can, making Vallejo braces an affordable option for orthodontic Vallejo patients on a budget.
Vallejo Invisalign
Instead of brackets and bands, the Invisalign system uses a series of clear, removable aligners to gradually move the teeth into alignment. Many people already know about this treatment option as an alternative to traditional braces.
Invisalign aligners come in a comfortable plastic that a doctor designs to fit snugly over a patient’s teeth. The patient swaps out these see-through aligner trays every one to two weeks, with the next in the series to keep the aligning teeth.
Patients should wear clear aligners 20-22 hours each day throughout treatment.
The Invisalign system only works if patients follow these recommended guidelines, so patient compliance is critical to success. Neglecting to wear the aligners as directed can halt the results and add time to the total length of orthodontic treatment.
