Easy for parents, fun for kids—is our tag line. Easy for parents represents the convenient services we provide from before and after school hours, transportation to and from school for in town patients, Saturday appointments for out of town patients, and easy payment options. Fun for kids represents our focus. We want our patients to feel like a special guest in our home in an environment where they are encouraged, respected, and uplifted and a fun place to come where they know they are cared for.

We have designed our schedule so we can be of greater service and be more available to our patients yet allow ourselves and staff flexibility to put their families first.

Our full tagline is a family tradition that is easy for parents and fun for kids. Our father was the Orthodontic Consultant to the Surgeon General. Seeing his love for the profession of orthodontics and the positive influence orthodontics had on our friends in school was a major reason all three of his children chose orthodontics as a profession. As a child of an Army Orthodontist, we lived in many locations. Many things changed, but the family was always there. My mom put my dad through school by working at a donut shop when I was 4 (I still love donuts to this day!). My parents made many sacrifices for their children. Today my brother Todd practices orthodontics in Alaska and I have the privilege of practicing with my sister, Holly.
