My formal education in orthodontics has provided me with a strong foundation of knowledge and experience. In 1993, I earned my undergraduate degree in Mechanical Engineering from Clemson University and then continued on to dental school at the Medical University of South Carolina, graduating there in 1999. I then practiced for three years in the US Navy, being stationed in Parris Island, SC and Goose Creek, SC. After my commitment, I moved to Greenville where I practiced general dentistry for four years. I then attended the orthodontic residency program at MUSC and graduated in 2009.
I feel my background in mechanical engineering has been extremely helpful as an orthodontist. Everything I do daily involves solving complex problems and using mechanical factors to correct them. I ultimately am an engineer of tooth movement. Also, because I practiced general dentistry for seven years and received training from Dr. Dawson and Dr. Kois, I have a great understanding of not only aesthetics but also how teeth are supposed to fit together. With this in mind, the teeth look great and they are extremely stable for a lifetime.
By regularly participating in continuing education, I am able to stay current on the latest technology and orthodontic treatments. My patients deserve the best, and continuing education allows me to provide my patients with more options and better results. I am also a member of several professional associations that provide me with opportunities for continuing education.
I am truly blessed to live and work in such a wonderful community. I enjoy getting to know my patients and their families, and it is always such an honor to know that I have made a difference in so many of many of my patients lives. I couldnt ask for a better job or for a better group of people to be sharing their smiles with me. I look forward to working with you.
My name is Andrew Marshall and my passion is changing peoples lives. It is my goal to do this, not only by creating beautiful smiles, but by fostering long-lasting relationships as well. That is why I love orthodontics. I love meeting new people, and I love seeing the look on my patients faces when we achieve the beautiful smile that they deserve.
I am a native of the South Carolina Upstate where I am a graduate of Spartanburg High School. My wife and Ihave three children who keep us extremely busy and we are active members of our local church. When I am not at the office doing what I love, I am either spending time with my awesome wife and kids, playing golf, or you can find me somewhere in the great outdoors.
I am a 1999 graduate of Virginia Tech where I was a member of the Virginia Tech Mens Swim Team. I received my Doctorate of Dental Medicine from the Medical University of South Carolina in 2006. I had the privilege of serving in the U.S. Army from 2006 to 2016 during which time I was selected to attend an Advanced General Dentistry residency at Fort Jackson in Columbia, SC, as well an orthodontic residency program where I earned my Certificate in Orthodontics and a Master of Science in Dentistry from the University of Louisville. I had the privilege of serving as an assistant professor in orthodontics at Fort Gordon, GA in the Armys post-graduate periodontics, prosthodontic, endodontic, and oral surgery residency programs from 2013-2016.
Over the last decade I have had the opportunity to participate in some very exciting and cutting-edge continuing education programs all over the world that not only keeps me on the leading edge of my field in orthodontics, but in dentistry as well. I love to learn and I truly enjoy continuing education that benefits my patients. I continue to stay ahead in traditional braces, early interceptive orthodontics in children, Invisalign, braces involving corrective jaw surgery, accelerated orthodontics, and complex multi-specialty orthodontic treatment.
Here at Carolina Family Orthodontics we care about your health and happiness, and we want you to have a wonderful orthodontic experience. Providing family-friendly care for patients of all ages, we believe that everybody deserves the opportunity to have a beautiful smile.
For most people, achieving a healthy, beautiful smile is the reason for receiving orthodontic care. If you're self-conscious about your smile, correcting your concerns with braces will greatly improve the way you look and feel.
When your treatment is complete, you will have the smile you've always dreamed of and the confidence to show it off! We also want you to feel comfortable and confident throughout your entire orthodontic experience, and our practice is dedicated to making sure that you receive the quality care you deserve.
Orthodontic appliances are made of metal, ceramic, or plastic. They may be removable or they may be brackets bonded to the teeth. By placing a constant, gentle force in a carefully controlled direction, braces slowly move teeth to the proper position.
Gone are the days when a metal band with a bracket was placed around each tooth. You can now choose clear or metal brackets and, in some cases, the color of your appliance. Wires are far less noticeable, and the latest materials are designed to move teeth faster with more comfort. Today, any age is a great age to wear braces!
Treatment time varies and can last between one and three years, depending on several factors including age, treatment method, and how minor or severe your case is. A big factor in a successful treatment is you! The more involved and diligent you are, the more efficient your treatment will be. For children, receiving interceptive or early treatment can also help provide a quicker treatment time.

Avoid this chain and don't waste your time and money here! Another mine child had her palatal expander and it fell in two month after delivery. We made several trips to receive it and remade rubber separators a few times for nothing. First time the separators hurt her, the gums were bleeding and swelling. Expander was not correct and we waited another month for lab to remake it. They partially refunded me for expander, but still I was charged for appliances $600. With Family Dental Health we had an extremely bad experience. Continuously within 6 mo I receive bank alerts and NO REFUND. Just save your time and health. Do not bring your children to this orthodontics pediatric dentist chain!

I was referred by a friend to get braces on at Carolina Family Orthodontics of Greer. It was my second time having orthodontic treatment, as the first place I had braces put on was dissatisfying. Dr. Marshall is amazing and pursues to have you happy with your smile! He will do whatever it takes to make sure you are satisfied. I absolutely loved being under his care, as well as his assistants. It means a lot when a Doctor cares for you not only as a patient, but as a person as well. Thank you for all that you do! Will be recommending to family and friends.

They talk you just like you always been there. Just all around a great place and very reasonably priced.. very laid back. It's a family atmosphere! I have referred several people to them

Braces can be intimidating as it is, getting treatment at the wrong Doctor is even worse. What I found with Carolina Family Orthodontics of Greer was exactly what everyone should be looking for in an orthodontic practice. A brilliant staff that had me looking forward to my next appointment, a Doctor who listened to my concerns and alleviated all of them and an environment of encouragement to continue the good work. Thanks to CFO Greer not only do I have a smile I'm proud of, but they also were able to get me finished before the holidays. No matter the age, CFO Greer is the place to go - thanks again team!

Took us back promptly for our initial appointment. They spoke with my 11 year old well and took him for his initial pictures. When they were done we reviewed them with dr and he answered all questions.he explained the difference between each type of braces and a plan for him. He Did NOT rush. He made sure our questions were answered. After he left the staff member (Taffy?) went over patiently over the cost and payment plan. I asked about a cash up front and she went over that. I called my husband and she helped me out with relying information and even adjusted the work for a higher down payment for us. They were recommended to us and I am very pleased. They listen to my son and his questions about each type of braces and his concerns. Highly recommend
