  • Escott Orthodontics – Lake County - Orthodontist in Mount Dora, FL

    Christopher Escott, DMD, MS is a certified orthodontist serving our Central Florida community since 2014. Dr. Escott is an experienced orthodontic specialist with advanced training in esthetic orthodontic treatment, accelerated orthodontic treatment, and non-surgical orthodontic treatment options. Dr. Escott is a leading Invisalign provider in our community and has the experience needed to make Invisalign treatment possible for more patients than ever before. Furthermore, by using advanced treatment techniques, Dr. Escott can help many patients avoid tooth extractions and jaw surgery. In addition, Dr. Escott offers complementary check ups for our younger patients as a free service to help ensure that your childrens teeth, jaws and bite are developing properly. Above all, Dr. Escott promises to give his patients honest recommendations and incredible service.

    Dr. Escott is an active member of the Schulman Study Group for Orthodontic Specialists. Membership to this exclusive group is by invitation only and limited to 125 practices in North America. In fact, many of the leading minds in orthodontics are members of the Schulman Study Group. Membership in this group is not only a tremendous privilege for Dr. Escott, but benefits our patients by giving Dr. Escott incredible resources to stay on the cutting edge of orthodontics. Additionally, Dr. Escott is an active member of the American Association of Orthodontists (AAO) and American Dental Association (ADA).

    Dr. Escott grew up in Yakima, a mountainous, high-desert area on the east side of Washington State. He was fortunate to know as a young man that he wanted to pursue healthcare, and found his passion in dentistry. He began his journey close to home, graduating from Central Washington University in 2007 with a Bachelors of Art Degree studying biology and chemistry.

    Dr. Escott moved to Florida to begin dental school at Nova Southeastern University in the summer of 2007. While in dental school he narrowed his focus on orthodontics and committed himself to becoming a specialist. As a senior dental student, he was awarded membership to the exclusive Omicron Kappa Upsilon society, a distinction reserved for a small number of students in dentistry. Dr. Escott completed his Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) degree in 2011, graduating with honors and near the top of his class.

    Dr. Escott then began his orthodontic residency, studying for three years at the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio. Admission to this prestigious residency is an honor, as only four dentists per year are selected. This rigorous program trained Dr. Escott in both conventional and cutting-edge orthodontic treatment and appliances, allowing him to deliver orthodontic care at the highest level. Dr. Escott completed his residency in 2014, becoming a certified specialist in orthodontics and earning a Masters of Science degree in dentistry.

    Dr. Escott began practicing in 2012, with his first position as a general dentist in San Antonio, Texas. There, he spent time working at CentroMed, a non-profit community health center helping the underserved population in the San Antonio area. This was a half-time position, which Dr. Escott held while attending residency. Dr. Escott spent two years practicing general dentistry on nights and weekends while completing his full-time orthodontic residency training.

    In 2014, Dr. Escott moved to Central Florida to practice at Lake Dora Orthodontics. This practice was previously known as Principe Orthodontics after Dr. Gilbert A. Principe who operated the practice for more than 40 years. Dr. Escott assumed the lead in this practice as Dr. Principe retired. Lake Dora Orthodontics has since thrived under the leadership of Dr. Escott by providing exceptional treatment with personal and attentive care.

    In 2016, Dr. Escott merged his team with College Park Orthodontics. Adding a second location allowed the doctor to reach more people in our Central Florida community and make it even more convenient for patients to find a time and location for their visits. College Park Orthodontics was established in 2008 by Dr. Noelle Williams. Dr. Escott took the lead in this practice in order to allow Dr. Williams to transition out to be available for her family commitments.

    Outside of the practice, Dr. Escott LOVES getting to the beach and jumping in the ocean. He will take any excuse to SCUBA dive, free dive, go boating, and wake board. He also enjoys underwater photography. When you visit the office, be sure to take a look at Dr. Escotts original photography on display. If you have some time to kill, ask him to show you some of his dive pics!

    I'm currently in the middle of my 1st week wearing Invisaligns. Escott Orthodontics have been wonderful as I begin this journey. Francisco, who placed the attachments on my teeth and who explained the best way to put in and take out the trays, was excellent. He took all the time I needed to make sure that I was able to do this correctly. Thank you so much Francisco and Ascott Orthodontics.

    I had such a positive experience with Escott orthodontics. The atmosphere is a perfect blend of upbeat, friendly, and professional. With Invisalign aligners and an OrthoPulse device, I am now in my permanent retainers after only seven months. Being a bit of a geek, I was so impressed with the technology used by Dr Escott's office. A special shout out to Stephanie! She took great care of me from start to finish. I had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Anni during my last couple of visits. What a great addition to the team. In conclusion, I'm glad I decided to get orthodontic treatment again and I highly recommend Escott orthodontics to anyone considering doing the same!

    I made an appointment to have a fixed retainer replaced to a removable one. They told me the price up front with no hidden fees. The doctor did a thorough job of removing the old one without damaging my enamel ( one of my top concerns) Everyone was friendly and professional. I went into my appointment right on time and walked out the same day with my new nighttime retainer. The office is immaculate !

    Francisco, was awesome with my daughter on today visit. I can actually say since we started going to Escott Orthodontics we have never had a bad experience, it's always pleasant in the waiting area, I see some patients check in and go straight to the back and done at a decent time. Great team keep up the great work. We are from NYC and we think it move so much faster than where we are from.

    Fernando did my braces about a month ago and he made the process as easy and painless as possible. He made sure that I was comfortable the entire way through! Update: Alex tightened my wires today and she did it fast and efficiently without causing any discomfort. She did this with acrylics on too! Definitely a girl boss!

    I started my journey with Dr. Escott over 3 years ago. My teeth were in such bad shape that I was told having surgery was the only way to fix them. I had an underbite and a serious lateral bite that were about two teeth from where they should have been. Dr. Escott did not sugarcoat the problem and told me that braces may not fix my teeth but after meeting him I had confidence in his ability as well as the ability of his team to do their best. 3 years later my treatment is over and my teeth have never looked better. The underbite and lateral bite are gone, my teeth are straight, and I have that same confidence that was felt on my first visit to his office, all without the need for surgery.

    Great office, great doctors, great staff!! I had the pleasure of doing the consultation with Ivonne, who explained everything very clearly, super informative and very nice! The whole process was wonderful. I got to meet both Dr Escott and Dr Anni both were wonderful and answered all my questions. I loved the technical aspect and all their capabilities. I was also able to go ahead and have my braces placed, SAME DAY! I was excited and nervous but the assistant Alex was wonderful, very calming- they placed the chair back and I closed my eyes and before I knew it they were done. Very professional!

    They are always late, you sit here forever. Your normal appt is always at least an hour. I always have to go back within the next couple of days because the wire is too long and poking his mouth. I also have another daughter who just got braces, took her somewhere else as this place is expensive and takes so long. I wish I would have taken my son to the other place I take my daughter to, it was less expensive and they get you in and out quickly.
