Why Choose Us

We understand that you have a choice when it comes to selecting an office to provide your orthodontic care. Orthodontics is an investment that lasts a lifetime and we strive to make your experience both pleasurable and rewarding. The following lists some of our policies and procedures to ensure our patients receive the best possible care throughout their treatment.

  • Our office uses the most up-to-date materials (appliances are never "recycled") and we maintain the highest infection control standards
  • In most cases, we have eliminated the use of spacers and orthodontic bands that are uncomfortable for patients and pose problems with oral hygiene. In addition, we use only smaller, low profile brackets (braces) for optimum comfort and esthetics
  • Placement and removal of all appliances is performed by the doctor
  • Phone calls are answered by an individual, not a computer
  • Our staff has years of experience in the orthodontic field and along with the doctor, is required to take continuing education courses each year to keep up-to-date with the latest information in their respective areas of expertise
  • Fees are all inclusive and are honored for six months. We do not believe in quoting a low fee to "get you in the door" and surprising you with additional fees at a later date
  • We offer multiple payment plans to fit your budget and handle the filing of your insurance claims
  • Our office values your time. We take pride in the fact that our patients are not kept waiting after their schedule appointment time
  • We work closely with your General Dentist and any other specialists to ensure a successful treatment outcome in keeping with the scope of your overall dental health
  • In summary, our goal is not to be the biggest or busiest orthodontic practice in the area. Our primary focus is on patient care and customer service. Please be assured that we will strive to exceed your expectations in these areas. We look forward to the opportunity to serve you.
