I help patients with scheduling, insurance, and financial questions to get them started on their journey of orthodontics... all with a smile. My favorite part of working here is seeing our young patients grow up into beautiful, smiling young adults right before our eyes. Our office is one of warmth and friendliness from the day of your new patient exam until the day your braces come off. It has been fun to see over the years our “kid” patients now grown and bringing their families in for braces!
