Dr Meehan and his team are wonderful! They explained everything before, during and after treatment was completed. Their office is very clean and their services are reasonable and affordable! My daughter just had her braces removed today, and we couldn't be more pleased with the results! As if removal day wasn't exciting enough, they gave her a beautiful bouquet of flowers and posed for final pictures. We will definitely be back for any of my other children's orthodontist needs!

Both of my children have braces from Meehan Orthodontics. Trust me, I shopped around before going to Meehan. I had a great feeling as soon as we walked in. Dr. Meehan and staff are awesome! Professional, friendly and very welcoming. The office is beautiful and so clean. My daughter had trouble with a wire and we were leaving the next day for vacation. Dr. Meehan was just getting back from out of town and Jaime (office manager) was able to get ahold of him and he came in to fix it when the office was closed. Now that's some great service!!!
