“Recently had my son’s braces done at smile doctor, and I have to say the whole experience was great! Staff was friendly and knowledgeable, price was totally reasonable with an awesome payment plan. We only had to have his braces on for about 16 months and the package came with his retainers and a whitening kit for after! I wish I would have had that option when I had braces back in the day! Overall 10 out of 10 experience at Smile Doctors!”

“Starting the process for braces seemed daunting but the staff made the process an easy and seamless experience. Everything was explained in detail in a way we could easily understand. My daughter is very timid with any dentist office and they made her comfortable and at ease. They were very patient with her and the whole office was friendly and attentive. Highly recommend!!”
