"Wonderful, friendly and inviting staff. I have had 3 kids who have now been seen and cared for at Alpha Orthodontist. Dr. Gliche is so caring and listens. It’s much more than just orthodontic care for straight teeth. They understand that development of the teeth, bones, etc. can have other affects on children."

Carole Gleich
Dr. Carole Gleich

Dr. Carole Gleich was born and raised in Iowa and has spent most of her life in the Midwest. She pursued dentistry after deciding she wanted a career where she could care for others and make a difference in people’s lives. She attended dental school at the University of Iowa where she graduated in 2011.

Dr. Gleich enjoyed practicing as a general dentist for 8 years before her interest in orthodontics became undeniable, and she went back to school to complete her specialist training at Nova Southeastern University in south Florida. A Midwesterner at heart, she is happy to be back home again!

Dr. Gleich understands the impact your teeth and smile have on your self-confidence and quality of life. Her 8 years of experience as a general dentist mean she is especially thoughtful about using orthodontics to create beautiful smiles which are also healthy and last a lifetime. She strives to provide not only clinically excellent treatment but also a comfortable and caring patient experience.

Dr. Gleich is very active in continuing education and is a member of the American Association of Orthodontists. Outside the office, Dr. Gleich loves spending time with friends and family (especially her niece) and her dog Tucker. She likes to stay active and practices yoga. She also loves traveling—especially to the ocean or to concerts!

“We have always had excellent experiences with Alpha Orthodontics. Dr. Gleich and her team are professional, friendly, fun, and wonderful with kids. When our son needed corrective treatment for his underbite, the team explained exactly what was needed and went above and beyond to make it a smooth process from start to finish. The results were even better than we expected.”

“I don’t normally leave reviews but this one was a must. The team that took care of my son was 10/10. They were always so kind, informative and helpful. My son knocked a couple brackets off throughout our process and they quickly got him in same or next day. If I had to reschedule due to scheduling conflicts they did their absolute best to accommodate us. My son always had good things to say after each appointment. The atmosphere was always warm and welcoming. We have 8 kids at home and anticipate at least 4 more kiddos needing dental work and we will be coming back here without a doubt. No need to look anywhere else! Thanks Alpha!! See you again soon!! -Ashley Alden”
