Everyone who walks into DeMaio Orthodontics is completely unique, and we believe that their orthodontic care should always reflect that. Nothing is ever cookie-cutter hereDr. DeMaio personally sits down with every patient to discuss what they would like to accomplish with their treatment, and with their goals in mind, he can get to work and fully personalize their care. We understand that our job is to treat people here, not teeth, so youll be valued and listened to every time you come to see us.

Technology plays a big part in what we do here. Our digital scanner eliminates the need for messy impressions with odd-tasting dental putty, we can put together the perfect treatment plan using high-tech X-rays, and we can even utilize dental lasers to help treatments fit better. On top of this, our office locations are largely solar powered as well! Were always looking forward and are constantly updating our facilities, so we can continue to deliver the highest-quality care possible.

Our child has been seeing Dr. DiMaio and his staff for several years now.... a few years before braces were judged to be needed and the past two during the braces treatment. Dr. DiMaio and his staff have treated our child and our family with the highest level of professionalism and excellence, along with kindness and compassion in understanding how braces become a big part of a child's life for a period of time. Dr. DiMaio and his whole office have always been available to us for any questions and have made us feel like we were part of the process of our child's treatment. They answer questions fully and listen carefully. I wish there were more than 5 stars to give them all for taking such good care of our child and family. We highly recommend Dr. DiMaio and his practice to anyone who needs a good orthodontist.

My 11 year old and 8 year old daughters both go to Demaio Orthodontics and we are beyond pleased with the advice, staff, and service that has been provided there. Dr. Demaio himself is WONDERFUL with children. He has an excellent bedside manner and connects so well, alleviating fears, and offering assurance. Every staff person we have come in contact with there is fantastic. The secretarial staff are funny, warm, friendly and accommodating. We just can't say enough good things. Our 8 year old had to have an expander for 2 months at only seven years of age. She now already has braces. This was so scary for her and everyone there offered her such kindness during the difficult times of changing her gear. She loves Dr. Demaio and despite not wanting all of this work done, the outcomes were so fast and her teeth already are looking exponentially better. The hardware has effectively and efficiently corrected a cross bite and full underbite in less than six months, all because of the advice of Dr. Demaio. We highly recommend Demaio Orthodontics for not only the kindness and excellent bedside manner of the staff, but for the professional knowledge and honest, appropriate, advice of Dr. Demaio. My girls are lucky to have him as an orthodontist.

My daughters, Erin and Tara both had orthodontic treatment with Dr DeMaio. Their smiles couldn't be more beautiful now and they were a crowded mess before! Every visit to both their Amherst and Northampton offices has always been very pleasant. Dr D and all his staff are always super friendly and accommodating. My older daughter is off to college next week and last minute realized she is in need of new retainers. I thought it would be too last minute to have them made but of course they fit her in and delivered them to her today. We've always felt very cared for there and would highly recommend them to anyone who needs orthodontic treatment.

Dr. DeMaio and his team have been nothing but warm, gentle and kind since we started going there a year ago. They're efficient, but personable. The patients are in a community room with other kids which takes the fear out of a dentist visit. Highly recommend!

My children, grandchildren (3) and finally myself have used this practice. They are so friendly and so efficient. We have no complaints- only compliments. Who ever heard of a 70 yr old needing orthodontic care? Well, they have and have been great!

My second daughter is now also receiving orthodontic care from Dr. DeMaio and his team. Every interaction I have had over the past three years has been friendly, positive, informative, and helpful. Dr. DeMaio is very encouraging and respectful with the kids, having a great "bedside manner." He suggests options, and shares his opinion, rather than stating what has to happen. When we needed "urgent care" for a wire protruding, staff insured that we were seen within hours. The payment plan options are great, and make this investment manageable. I was "sold" when we first met him, and following an assessment of my daughter's situation, stated matter-of-factly that: not everyone needs to look like a white guy from Kansas, that there are many different faces, and the goal is both to have well aligned teeth, and to have the orthodontic work integrate seamlessly with the face of the client. I highly recommend this practice!

My oldest child got her braces here and now my youngest son. My son has special needs and we weren't even sure if he could stand having braces. Well, let me tell you, this office employs the best people in the field. I would highly recommend them to anyone! They worked miracles for us!
