We have had 3 of our girls treated by Dr.Cooper and staff and have been very satisfied with their smiles! They are all very friendly and explain what was done and what is next. We recommend them to all of our friends and family. Braces came off today on our last daughter and she can't stop smiling.

I was a little skeptical of driving 75 miles for appointments, but I'm glad my daughter's dentist recommended Bemidji Orthodontics. They always explained what procedures were going to be done and gave a time line of when everything would be finished. Her appointments always started on time (or even a little early) and everyone was very friendly.

My experience with Bemidji Orthodontics was nothing but amazing. Everyone is so kind and professional. Every detail about my personal treatment plan was explained thoroughly. I looked forward to regular appointments and check-ups because I knew I would be taken care of. They take precautions for COVID seriously to make sure everyone is safe as possible under their care. I highly recommend.

From the start of my 5 plus years with orthodontic arches I felt like I was your priority. Having many appointments at my home town was a great convenience for me and my children. Thank you.

The staff at Bemidji Orthodontics are very friendly and accommodating. Overall, I was very pleased with my results and felt that Dr. Cooper did a fantastic job! Patient education was probably the most lacking--as I was not always informed of what to expect and received no education on what to do once my braces were applied. Overall, they do excellent work and I would recommend them to others!
