Great honest place for orthodontics. They evaluated all 3 of my kids and even told me that one of the did not need braces! Reasonably priced as well!

Great experience with my daughter. Took extra time and care for a nervous dad too.

My first child went to a different ortho office, and I wasn't totally happy. I decided to try Dexter Orthodontics for my younger one, even though it's a little bit of a drive. Now I wish I had gone to Dexter Ortho from the start. It's more than worth the drive. The staff is so kind and compassionate, and the doctors go above and beyond and genuinely care about their patients. You don't feel like just another number here. My child was nervous about getting his braces on, and the technician was so patient and careful with him. Afterward, my son said he "couldn't have asked for a better person" to do his braces. When I called with an insurance question, the staff member on the phone was so helpful and made sure I understood everything. And the doctors are top-notch, knowledgeable, professional, and compassionate. They really care about their patients here, and it shows!
