My 4 children received braces at OA and I couldn’t be happier. It was a great experience. The doctors were very professional and the dental assistants were very friendly.

Common Questions From Our Patients
Welcome to Orthodontic Alliances
Here at Orthodontic Alliances, you can expect a fun environment for your children or yourself to have orthodontic care done. Very experienced, happy, enjoyable staff to be working with. You can expect us to do non-extraction therapy. We don’t like to pull teeth when we don’t have to. We find that we’re very efficient, try to finish patients in hopefully less than 18 months.
We are strong believers in the philosophy of treat others as you want to be treated. All of our staff from the front office, staff to the girls in the back, we’re all really kind and friendly people because we want to treat others as we would like to be treated.
When I came in, my teeth were an absolute mess. My teeth were crooked absolutely everywhere. So if I can do it and have really good results, I think anybody really can. I really am excited to see just having perfect straight white teeth. I think that this is one of the best places to get it because it’s a really nice team, very cooperative team.
They make sure that you know what they’re doing, and they make sure that you’re comfortable when you’re there. They feel more like friends than just doctors. And I just feel like I’m getting better care, just feel like I’m getting better service.
Before I got my braces on, I didn’t like that I had a gap in my teeth. They were all over the place. I would hold my head down when I was talking. I wouldn’t look directly in the face because I didn’t like my smile. But as they put them on and I started to see some progress, I was like, “Oh, yeah, this was what was right for me.”
And I started to talk more, I started to smile more. And then when I got them off, it was like when I’m talking, I’m able to smile, I’m able to look people directly in their face and let them know what I have to say. Just simple things like that, which made it very much easier for me to go through the journey with my braces. If I had to rate them, I’d give them a 10 out of 10, five stars.
They’re always convenient. Every time I’ve called and asked them if they could fix a bracket or one of my rubber bands fell off or something, they always tell me to come in right away, as soon as you can. They always make sure that they’re asking me questions, if everything’s feeling okay. And they just give me a great experience. It feels like I’m at home. It makes me feel happy that I have someone here that could help me and make me have a better smile.
I want my children to have that perfect smile too. I don’t want them to have the struggle like I did when I was younger. They explain everything. I’m a question person, and I definitely get all the answers before anything is done. “Why you’re doing that?” They explain why, and my daughter was in good hands. I knew coming here, so I’m anxious to see in the future how things start moving, how things start coming down and coming together.
It’s just, it was way different being the mom, sitting there and watching your child get the braces on, instead of you always being the patient. So …
