Response from the owner:Thank you for your kind words, Cari. We’re glad to know we met your expectations!
My son started his orthodontic journey last year, and so far, we have had an amazing experience. The staff has been super kind and accommodating. Tim is our orthodontic assistant, and he has been so welcoming, knowledgable, professional, and personable. He has made my son feel very comfortable every time he has come in. Tim has a great sense of humor that lightens the mood and helps my son feel at ease. He also does a very good job of explaining the procedures to my son in terms he can understand and providing education to us parents on what to expect. I highly recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a kid-friendly orthodontist.

I had an appointment on May 5th at 10:00. I was poked in my top lip twice, and my bottom lip once. Now both top and bottom lips are swollen. I would like to request someone else for the maintenance of my braces for the remainder of my time with you l.
