Why should patients choose you as their provider instead of others in the area?

At Andros Orthodontics, we pride ourselves on providing treatment that is affordable, transformative and efficient. We use world-class qualifications, the latest technology and cutting-edge products to give our patients the attention and care they deserve — all while managing their treatment programs to be considerate of their time. We treat each of our patients as the valuable individuals that they are, and we love nothing more than to see the beams of happiness shine from our patients’ faces as they smile for the first time after treatment — no more hesitance, no more insecurities. Our greatest reward is seeing how a smile can bring confidence where there was insecurity, pride where there was pain. Spending time and money on an orthodontic program can be an investment, but when you choose to invest in us for your orthodontic treatment, we promise to invest in you. And we promise, for the years and years of smiles to come, it’s worth it.

What are the top 3 treatments that you focus on?

Traditional metal braces, Ceramic braces, Wild Smiles, Invisalign, and Incognito.

Which cases do you enjoy treating? Why?

I first became passionate about orthodontics after having braces myself. I saw first hand how a great smile has a huge impact on one’s life. I look forward to getting to know my patients over the course of their treatment and working hard together. One of my favorite things is seeing how happy patients are when their braces are removed and seeing their beautiful, confident smiles.
