I believe we should all LOVE LIFE SMILING! Being an orthodontist helps me do that! Everyone deserves the self-confidence that comes with a beautiful smile. People should enjoy the transformation of their smiles in a fun, positive, patient-focused environment. Through state-of-the-art technology and advances in time-tested techniques to align jaws and straighten teeth, we 're able to exceed our patients ' expectations.' Dr. Rawlins

Dr. Rawlins was raised in Unionville, PA. He completed his undergraduate studies atPenn State Universitywhere he not only developed his addiction to Penn State football, but he also attained a Bachelor of Science degree in Science and graduated first in his class as the Valedictorian of theEberly College of Science. He went on to receive two prestigious Ivy League degrees for his dental education and orthodontic specialty training, starting with his Doctorate of Dental Medicine from the world-renowned University of Pennsylvania, School of Dental Medicine, where he graduated second in his class. He jokingly tells his friends that he slipped to second in his class during dental school because he fell in love with his wife and was distracted. After dental school, Dr. Rawlins spent an additional three years atthe esteemed Columbia University, College of Dental Medicineto specialize in orthodontics where he received his Master of Science in Orthodontics.

Dr. Rawlins providesthe perfect blend of technology and experience.The field of orthodontics continues to see rapid technological and digital advances. Dr. Rawlins is young enough to have been trained in the most current technologies. However, he is old enough to have a few gray hairs to match his experience in creating hundreds of amazing smiles over many years.

Dr. Rawlins stays at the forefront of his field. He continually studies the latest advances in orthodontic treatment through continuing education courses and by participating in professional associations and organizations. These latest technologies mean shorter treatment times and fewer office visits for his patients.In 2019, Dr. Rawlins was named one of the Top Orthodontists in the area by Delaware Today Magazine.

Dr. Rawlins is board certified by the American Board of Orthodontics because he wants you to know you are getting the best care available. He strongly believes that any specialist in the Medical or Dental field should be certified by their Specialty Board. And yet, Only 1 in 3 orthodontists is board certified.

Dr. Rawlins is a native of Chester County and currently lives in Unionville, PA.He and his wife Renee have two sweet, energy-filled little boys. They often joke that they need to be run like greyhounds each day!

Dr. Rawlins enjoys spending time with family and friends. He loves to travel and is passionate about music and playing the drums. His favorite drummers are Stewart Copeland from the Police, Carter Beauford from Dave Matthews Band, and John Bonham from Led Zeppelin. He'd love to talk music with you!

Dr. Rawlins is also passionate about supporting our surrounding community. He and his team are thrilled to support our local schools, charities, sports teams, and scout troops. They are passionate about initiatives like WE-SUPPORT WEDNESDAY and Like Us for Good to bring awareness and make meaningful donations to groups such as The B+ Foundation, Toys for Tots, and the Delaware Breast Cancer Coalition.

For most people, achieving a healthy, beautiful smile is the reason for receiving orthodontic care. If you're self-conscious about your smile, correcting your concerns with braces will greatly improve the way you look and feel.

When your treatment is complete, you will have the smile you've always dreamed of and the confidence to show it off! We also want you to feel comfortable and confident throughout your entire orthodontic experience, and our practice is dedicated to making sure that you receive the quality care you deserve.

Orthodontic appliances are made of metal, ceramic, or plastic. They may be removable or they may be brackets bonded to the teeth. By placing a constant, gentle force in a carefully controlled direction, braces slowly move teeth to the proper position.

Gone are the days when a metal band with a bracket was placed around each tooth. You can now choose clear or metal brackets and, in some cases, the color of your appliance. Wires are far less noticeable, and the latest hi-tech materials are designed to move teeth faster with more comfort. Today, any age is a great age to wear braces!

Treatment time varies and can last between one and three years, depending on several factors including age, treatment method, and how minor or severe your case is. A big factor in a successful treatment is you! The more involved and diligent you are, the more efficient your treatment will be. For children, receiving interceptive or early treatment can also help provide a quicker treatment time.

I chose this office because of their great reviews. My son has been a patient since 2020, and we have loved Dr. Rawlins and his team. He explains everything in the consult, and the staff walked my son through everything they did as they put on his braces. Every visit my son leaves with a smile. Even when I got confused and flustered about something, the office staff were really nice to me and sent me what I needed right away. You will be so happy you chose the Rawlins team- we are!!!

My son Ben has been seeing Dr. Rawlins for over 2 years now. He came VERY highly recommended by several friends and we quickly saw why. All the staff have been very pleasant and clearly seem to like their job and want to be there. Dr Rawlins allows has a jovial demeanor and throughly answered all questions we had along the way. My son says "The staff are really great. Dr. Rawlins is a very kind and non-stressed person. He is also funny and very enthusiastic."
