All 3 of our kids used the services of Dr. Hoffman of Calabasas Orthodontics. It was truly a great experience with Dr. Hoffman and his staff. He was honest about what needed to be done, his prices were very fair and never did we feel rushed to have their braces taken off too early. Dr. Hoffman even explained that our kids needed to use their retainers every night after their braces were taken to help keep their teeth aligned properly for years to come. They now all have beautiful smiles. We recommend Dr. Hoffman to teens and even adults who needs braces.
