Someone new in the office made a human error of double charging. Alice stepped in and did the research and talked to my bank to help me resolve this issue. My account looks like such a complete mess, but again Alice really help straight this out. We are not new patients. We have been to the office for a number of years and this had never happened before. Thank you Alice.

In my early 40s, my teeth kept moving closer and closer together. Although, my dental hygiene was very good, I continued to get cavities. I asked my dentist what I could do about the situation. She recommended that I get braces and referred me to Dr. Oviedo's practice. My experience at Dr. Oviedo's practice has been excellent. I'm extremely pleased pwith the outcome of my treatment. Dr. Oviedo is kind, compassionate and has a great sense of humor. Linda is always cheerful and I enjoy chatting with her while booking follow up visits. Joyce is also very helpful and thoughtful with her tips. I recommend Dr. Oviedo to anyone who is looking for an orthodontist. My daughters and I have had very positive experiences with his practice. If my youngest daughter needs orthodontic treatment, we will definitely go back to Dr. Oviedo.

Dr. Oveido has been a wonderful orthodontist for my daughter. As a parent, I appreciate his calm demeanor. He is patient and gentle which makes his patients comfortable. He is also very generous with his time and resources - caring more about his patients than his own time. Recently, Dr. Oveido made it a priority to stay after hours in order to accommodate a difficult summer schedule for our family. Instead of making my daughter wait a few weeks without a proper retainer, he made huge efforts to make sure her progress was not effected. Dr Oveido's team & staff ( Alice) are also incredibly nice and helpful!

I saw Dr Oviedo as an adult with a pretty complicated situation that required coordinating with a surgeon and gum specialist. He took charge of it all and provided me not only with great Orthodontic care but also a full dental plan across several specialists. He's a pleasure to work with, highly recommend!

Dr. Oviedo is a pleasure to work with. He and his staff created such a welcoming atmosphere that makes me happy to come into the clinic. I came to Dr. Oviedo looking to get Invisalign to fix my bite and he was extremely flexible to work within my timeline as well as take the time to explain the treatment process. We even met virtually after I had moved out of town. I highly recommend this clinic for your Orthodontics needs.

Chris and his team are really great people, I was traumatized by a dentist when I was young and it's still hard for me to go, but Chris was really relaxing, I'm grateful that he was willing to help and coordinate on a fairly special request, the service they provided was top notch, I felt they cared about my comfort and tried their best for everything. You can go with your eyes closed.

I have been a patient of Doctor Oviedo since November 2021. He is very knowledgeable and patient. I was scared when he fitted my Invisalign on the first day but he was so patient and kind. Whenever there is a change in treatment he calls and follows up to ask how I am doing. The staff is nice and friendly. I have been receiving excellent service. I am glad I decided to come here.

My dentist recommended Dr. Oviedo to me for Invisalign because of his experience. I had previously checked out three other places before deciding to go with this one, and am very happy with my choice! I felt the most comfortable here, and knowing that my dentist also recommended him gave me peace of mind. I feel like he is genuine about helping people and is not in it for the money, unlike other places I have checked out. His office is nicely decorated and clean, but not overly flashy, and he has great bedside manner. All of the staff are also very kind, and would give me small little gifts such as really nice chocolate and tons of pens. At one point I had to refuse the pens because they gave me so many of them. Haha. I'm nearing the end of my Invisalign treatment now, and even though the office is far from my home, I will miss coming here! I had a very painless and successful experience here. Highly recommend Dr. Oviedo for Invisalign!

Dr. Oviedo is a thoughtful and kind dentist. He checks in frequently to make sure you are comfortably suctioned during Invisalign fittings. He and his staff wash their hands before interacting with myself and patients. He also explains the plan, asks for your input and proceeds after the plan has been agreed upon. I'm so glad I chose to have my Invisalign treatment with his practice. Linda and Alice greet me with a smize (smiling with eyes as we are in pandemic times with our masks!) every time I have to check in. Cindy and Joyce, the dental assistants are both patient and explain next steps about prep/follow up with ease. They have been flexible in scheduling and understanding when I ran behind for my appt due to a meeting. I appreciate the office as a whole and recommend friends and family check out his practice for a smooth Invisalign smile journey!! Thank you again Dr. Oviedo! I'm cheesing BIG all the way on my drive home

Dr. Oviedo and his staff provide excellent care and are kind, efficient, thorough, and responsive. Dr. Oviedo is fantastic with my son and takes time to answer any questions we may have, and his friendly staff works to makes sure we get an appointment that fits our scheduling needs. Dr. Oviedo is also on time with our appointments, so we are seen right away and don't have to wait. I highly recommend his practice!

During the COVID pandemic, I noticed pain in my lower teeth and jaw and felt like my teeth were beginning to shift. I made an appointment with my regular dentist and he told me I was going to need braces to adjust my jaw and to fix the pain in my teeth. He recommend Dr. Oviedo and I honestly couldn't be happier! The team is absolutely amazing and able to speak to you so you understand the game plan of orthodontic your care. It's really like a family there. Because I'm 23, I wasn't exactly excited to have regular metal braces, but Dr.Oviedo was able to set me on the Invisalign track!!! Because I'm in college and renting an apartment, I'm a bit limited on money, I mean braces are always expensive right? His team was MORE than helpful with setting me on a payment plan that was affordable and easy to follow. Dr. Oviedo is just the friendliest and has been more than helpful with my Invisalign journey. You can really tell that he cares about his patients, his team, and has a true passion for his work. 20/10 and I highly recommend this practice to any one in need of a GREAT orthodontist!
