Virginia Beach & Norfolk Patients Access Orthodontics, Periodontics & Pediatric Dentistry in One Office

Virginia Beach, United States - August 7, 2026 / ICON Smile Studios /

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va., July 21, 2026 — ICON Smile Studios, the Hampton Roads specialty dental group founded by Dr. Yugal Behl and Dr. Monika Madan, today announced the opening of two flagship, multidisciplinary campuses — one at 125 Independence Boulevard in Virginia Beach and a second at 155 Kingsley Lane in Norfolk. The openings represent the most significant expansion in the organization's history and the next chapter in a legacy of specialty dental care in Hampton Roads that traces back more than six decades.

Each flagship unites ICON Smile Studios' specialty brands — Behl Orthodontics, Madan Periodontics & Implant Dentistry and ICON Pediatric Dentistry — alongside oral and maxillofacial surgery and sedation dentistry, all under a single roof. The model allows patients of all ages to access coordinated, specialist-level care without being referred across multiple offices, reflecting a broader shift in dentistry toward integrated, multidisciplinary practices designed to improve both the patient experience and clinical outcomes.

"For more than 20 years, my goal has been to bring specialist-level orthodontic and dental care to every family in Hampton Roads, no matter their zip code. These flagship campuses are the clearest expression yet of that vision — bringing together the specialties families need most, under one roof, in one visit." — Dr. Yugal Behl, founder of Behl Orthodontics and co-founder of ICON Smile Studios

ICON Smile Studios' orthodontic heritage traces back to 1960, when Fulton Orthodontics opened its doors as one of Hampton Roads' pioneering orthodontic practices. A decade later, Albinder Orthodontics was founded, building its own tradition of personalized care across the region. Both practices — along with Virginia Beach Orthodontics — have since become part of the Behl Orthodontics network, which Dr. Behl has grown to seven locations across Virginia Beach, Chesapeake, Suffolk, Hampton and Yorktown since founding the practice in 2010, following his orthodontic specialty training at Boston University.

Dr. Behl earned his dental degree before completing advanced postdoctoral training at Boston University, including a Doctor of Science in Oral Biology and specialty certification in orthodontics. He has since become a Diamond Invisalign provider recognized among the top providers in the country. In 2026, Dr. Behl completed the Executive MBA program at William & Mary's Raymond A. Mason School of Business, strengthening his focus on strategy, finance and healthcare leadership as the organization scales.

"Every practice we've had the honor of building on has its own story and its own patients who trust us with their care. Our job isn't to replace that legacy — it's to invest in it, modernize it, and make sure it's still here serving Hampton Roads families 60 years from now." — Dr. Behl

ICON Smile Studios was founded by Dr. Behl alongside Dr. Monika Madan, a periodontist and implant specialist, on the shared belief that dental care should be comprehensive, collaborative and centered on the patient. The organization is built around three subsidiary brands: Behl Orthodontics, led by Dr. Behl; Madan Periodontics & Implant Dentistry, led by Dr. Madan; and ICON Pediatric Dentistry. Together with ICON Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery, these brands give patients access to a full spectrum of specialty dental care in a single, coordinated visit.

"Patients shouldn't have to navigate five different offices to get the care their smile needs. When our specialists can collaborate under one roof, patients get better outcomes and a far less stressful experience — and that's exactly what these new flagships are built for." — Dr. Monika Madan, co-founder of ICON Smile Studios

The Virginia Beach and Norfolk flagship openings kick off a multi-year expansion plan for ICON Smile Studios. The organization plans to open a location in Hampton in 2027, followed by Williamsburg in 2028, extending its integrated model of specialty care to more communities across the region.

"The next 60 years are about honoring the past while investing in the future. That means developing exceptional leaders, advancing specialty dentistry and continuing to serve generations of Hampton Roads families — the same way Fulton Orthodontics and Albinder Orthodontics did for us." — Dr. Behl
