'Dr. Littlefield, Dr. Ganim, and their team are absolutely amazing. If your children need orthodontic care, this is the place to go. From day one they made our girls (age 7 and 11 at the time) feel at home and relaxed during their visits. They explained to the girls what they were doing each visit, giving our girls the respect they deserve as patients. We have had nothing but wonderful experiences over our two years of visits. The staff is always considerate, fun, and made our girls feel comfortable. We would highly recommend using Littlefield-Ganim Orthodontics for your family!!'-Tara G.
'Dr. Littlefield is an excellent orthodontist and an amazing person! He has taken care of both my daughters with professionalism and kindness. I would highly recommend him and Dr. Ganim. The staff is also amazing and so very friendly. 5 Stars all the way!'-Kathy H.
'The ortho is my favorite place to go to in the world. Everyone at Littlefield-Ganim Orthodontics is so nice and they make me so happy. Every time I have an ortho appt, it just makes my day so great. Also, they do their job very well and made my teeth nice and straight.'-Karlee B.
I attended Baylor University for my undergraduate studies. Afterwards, I graduated from Southern Illinois University School of Dental Medicine and received my Orthodontic Certificate from St. Louis University. I have practiced orthodontics in the Metro East for the past 30 plus years. As a part of my continuing education, I am a member of the American Dental Association, the Illinois State Dental Society, and the St. Clair District Dental Society as well as the American Association of Orthodontists and Midwest Society of Orthodontists. I also enjoy the continuing education that lnvisalign has to offer.
The best part of my job is the fun and excitement that our patients bring into the office. Our patients bring exuberance and joy which is spread throughout the office and allows the staff and I to have fun and it puts a smile on our faces. After 30 plus years of practicing orthodontics, I still love coming to work each and every day!
In every orthodontic treatment, I attempt to maintain broad, full smiles and attractive profiles for my patients. Many borderline extraction cases at Littlefield-Ganim Orthodontics are treated with expansion therapy rather than having permanent teeth extracted. The results obtained from these treatments are very stable and show improved esthetics.
I was born and raised in the Belleville area and graduated from Belleville West High School. I love serving the people of my hometown. My wife, Cindy, and I have three children named Amanda (married to Mark), Emily (married to Drew), and Andy, and three granddaughters, Jenna, Mia, and Blaire. My leisure time is spent with my church, family, friends, or on the golf course. I am very active in the community and participate in several charitable and local organizations. I contribute to school auctions, donating orthodontic cases to help fund these schools programs, and have done this throughout my orthodontic career. I have also traveled to Paraguay many times with our church missions to promote dental care to the rural areas.

We started our journey with Dr. Littlefield in 2014. Our 4th kid just started and we are still happy with our decision! From doctors to staff it feels like family when we come in for an appointment.

The doctors and the entire staff here are wonderful! Everyone is friendly and easy to communicate with and they are really invested in their patients' health. We have been thrilled with the overall experience with our son's braces. They explain everything so well so you understand each step in the process. Highly recommend Littlefield Ganim if your kids need orthodontic work.

I love the staff and doctors at this orthodontist. The staff and doctors are very polite and share their concerns as well as listen to your concerns as a patient! They have seen my 2 youngest children and my oldest has now started going to them for her treatment. The facility is always kept clean and organized very well!

Dr. Littlefield and Dr. Ganim are wonderful! They are both very friendly and great with kids. Our dentist thought our daughter might have to have teeth pulled before she could get braces but Dr. Littlefield said no, which was a relief. Then we had an issue with my daughter's retainer and they were very helpful with making the necessary adjustments. It's been a very good experience. I would definitely recommend them.

I love this group!! First of all, the consultations are completely complimentary. No charge to the patient just to get an idea of what the price and course of treatment will be!! The staff of Littlefield Ganim Orthodonics are always so understanding and helpful. Jennifer at the front desk is highly knowledgeable when it comes to all things insurance, the treatment coordinators Kimberly and Wendy help to make sure you understand what your out of pocket cost will be, and all of the assistants are super sweet as well. I have been seen by both Dr. Ganim and Dr. Littlefield and I will say that they both make you feel like you're in the best hands possible. As someone who experiences dental anxiety, I can honestly say I've never felt uneasy in the chair which to me is a huge deal -- especially in the wake of COVID. This entire staff is professional, organized, and anytime I've been in the office they have put a big smile on my face!
