I appreciate the dentists' happy and positive demeanor. They have a mini arcade for children to stay entertained with while they wait. The customer service is so genuinely friendly with the offering of coffee, tea or water upon arrival. They have appointments that are as really as 7am which is great for working parents such as myself to take my child before work.This is the best experience I've had with an dentistry. Thanks Dr. Arbit and Team for a great experience!!!!!!!

Everything with Dr. Arbit and his team are the best! I went to Dr. Arbit myself and now fast-forward 26 years later, my own son is a patient of Dr. Arbit. He is the best orthodontist in the area. He is kind, patient, and always willing to talk through things. After having new retainers made for myself, I have seen a major improvement in my sleep because the new technology is so amazing and had such a great fit for my teeth. My middle-school aged son also loves going to Dr. Arbit and all his staff are amazing. They are fun to joke around with and it's always a pleasure to stop into their office. Highly recommend checking out Dr. Arbit for either adult or child orthodontic needs!

My daughters enjoyed their appointment and can't wait to get braces. As a parent I really appreciate the explanation and information on their plan for my daughters. Dr. Arbit's assistant was helpful in showing us models of what will be used in my kiddos' mouths and how it works. Another fun fact is that Dr. Arbit was my orthodontist! How cool is it that I get to send my kiddos to the same person who made my teeth nice and straight!

I worked at Arbit Orthodontics for the last several months. I performed a variety of tasks that revolved around benefiting their current and future patients' experience. The staff, from the front desk to the technicians, all genuinely cared deeply about their jobs. It's obvious from his long-standing employees, that Dr. Arbit runs a great practice. It makes me sad that I won't be working for Arbit Orthodontics, but the entire team was very understanding about my departure after learning of my acceptance into law school. I would highly recommend Dr. Arbit's office for anyone who is looking for a kind, caring, and personalized orthodontic journey.

We love Dr Arbit! My daughter gets so nervous with anything medical/dental related, but Dr Arbit and his staff are able to make her feel comfortable and relaxed. She's always in a great mood after her appointments, because they take the time to chat and joke with her so she isn't nervous. :)

Dr. Arbit and his team are fantastic! They are sensitive, compassionate, exceedingly patient and always professional - and work together as a well oiled team that is clearly committed to providing a top quality product. Dr. Arbit is also humble and kind and through covid was on top of ensuring every safety protocol was in place - both for his patients and his staff. Most importantly (though the other things really matter!) you can be refreshingly confident that he is passionate about orthodontics and "doing it right" and is deeply committed to a successful end result. I'm so glad my dentist referred me to Dr. Arbit and his team!

I had the pleasure of visiting Scott Arbit Orthodontics recently. I was taken by the warmth and genuineness, from the moment I walked in ... and, it didn't end there. Dr. Arbit has managed to assemble a team of like-minded professionals, who put the patient first - And who truly listen to concerns and questions. The initial exam was the most comprehensive I've ever experienced; with each individual exercising his or her part Very well; pulling together the most complete look at my teeth and gums, for Dr. Arbit to determine a course of action. Thank you to Dr. Arbit, and your entire team.

A negative experience with our ortho journey that could have been avoided if we did not come here. Only about 3 good employees that make you feel at least "semi-welcome." Otherwise, we always leave feeling frustrated, and Dr. Arbit's treatment is always a bit disturbing from his fake tones and comments. You could get better treatment somewhere else. Save yourself and your family from the slightly extra turmoil that comes with, not to mention... the costs as well!! I understand that this journey comes with high expenses, however, throwing in last minute "needed" procedures that inflict pain and discomfort onto my children is not necessary- parents are not consulted first. Don't let an 8-12 year old be the only who knows what's going on in his medical process. A lot of the reviews on here are 5 stars, but I personally, have not experienced the "5 star care" that those reviews claim. I can't help but think that they're staged? Anyways, I really hope you guys can figure out how to change your business for the better, but meanwhile, I recommend that people NOT choose Dr. Arbit as your trusted orthodontist.

I feel extremely confident in Arbit Orthodontics because I'm proof that Scott Arbit is forever learning the most advanced ways to straighten your smile, and he passes that on to his team. And that team -- from front desk to treatment room -- everyone is friendly and welcoming, which makes the experience positive+.

We've been coming here since my oldest was 12...he's 21 now! Both of my boys had the most fun when they had to wait for their turn. Arbit and the staff are great. Always there to help and accommodate our family's crazy schedule. Thank you so much for squeezing us in when you can. They also do a great job of explaining everything that needs to happen to get that beautiful, bright smile.

I'm extremely satisfied. I left this place so happy that my eyes watered a bit. I was really nervous just because I didn't know what to expect. I would grade the staff an A++++, they were AMAZING!!!! My goal is to enhance my smile and I'm so excited to get my journey started here!!!! It was the most comfortable experience I've had in quite some time. Even just being able to share what my goals are for my teeth and the in depth explanation I received of what the process will be. Everything was amazing. I felt welcomed and I felt heard with my goals for my teeth enhancement. If you are looking for an orthodontist. THIS is the place to GO!!!! The way he explained everything and made sure my questions were answered. In my true opinion, when it comes to choosing who's going to help you reach your goals with your teeth. You have to be sure they care and really truly want to make sure they have the best solution for you. I totally felt this way. If you are looking for a team that will ensure you understand the process and make sure they have the best plan for you with top tier experience. THIS IS THE PLACE!!!

Arbit Orthodontics is a great place for orthodontic care! Arbit Orthodontics offers a wonderful atmosphere, knowledgeable and friendly staff/who are always willing to provide support. I am very pleased with the Invisalign treatment plan/as an older adult Dr. Arbit made my experience a great one! Dr. Arbit is a warm and very compassionate person always seeking to fulfill the needs of his patients. He has provided orthodontic care for both my siblings and my son. Our family truly appreciates the wonderful gift he has given us - which are beautiful SMILES!

Very friendly and very competent organization. No waiting or wondering what comes next. They kept me informed and answered every question I had in terms I could understand. Dr Orbit is a joy to work with. He is genuinely interested in knowing his patients. His examination was very very complete. I would highly recommend Dr Orbit and his organization.
