How it works
  • Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
  • This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
  • Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
  • Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.

If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

8 months update

It’s been a few months since my last update. This is my 9th month in, or should I say going into my 9th month. I have nothing but horrible things to say. I mean the place is great. The staff is phenomenal. My teeth look great. Well maybe I don’t have anything bad to say after all.
Within these months, I have had power-chains placed on some teeth for rotation purposes. Only time I felt pain. Plus I’m in bands 24/7 now. I could have had them off 2 months ago, but they want to make sure you’re as happy as possible. So it’s not the refining stage. My top is laced
so they stay in position. I’ll say off by Jan.

5 month in (4th visit)

Sorry real self family. I missed out on the last update, and boy I wish did. There was much progress from that visit to this one. At the last visit, my uppers and lowers all had v-tied ligatures. I also have elastics tied into a triangle. I forgot what they called it.

Well I didn't notice but they spaced out two months between visits and I didn't go in April. Well maybe it's a good thing because I didn't start wearing my elastic until a week ago. And they were only used at night. But the improvement in the short time is excellent. Great staff as always. Always motivational also too. I love those guys and gals.

1 month in

I went for my first tightening on 2/18. As always in this office, if you come on time, it's no wait. The tech is ready and waiting on you. So Dr.Hayden, who wasn't too pleasant when I first met him, was nicer on this trip. Maybe it was my perception.

So as you can see, my bottoms are on. The did all skipping my pre-molar again. I asked after the fact, why were the pre-molars skipped and she replied, because they were already in alignment. Sounds good to me.

If you notice my uppers are moving in the right direction and fast. I'm totally satisfied up until this point.
