walked into my consultation, I knew this was the right place for me. He and his team have always been professional and provided a comfortable environment. After all the necessary procedures and checkups, I left with a completely new smile, one that I was confident and happy with!! I can proudly say that over the time I spent at the office, not only did I get the smile I've always wanted, but I built a relationship with a great person and someone who I can call a friend. He has helped inspire me and grow as a person. This is seriously something I never thought I would go through while just doing a search to get braces. Dr. Salins goes beyond just the smile, he and his team have given me the best possible experience I could have asked for..thanks doc!

Salins Orthodontics did a phenomenal job straightening my teeth. I am still in awe with how my teeth look. If you are looking for an amazing orthodontist Dr. Salins is the the way to go.

Dr. Salins and his team are the best!! His office is always rockin' out to the best music while they take what is normally a dreadful experience (having your teeth worked on) to something you "almost" look forward to ; ) Dr. S. is super fun, calm, and cool as he works to make sure all his patients are well taken care of. I honestly could not recommend him enough.

Dr. Salins helped give my smile sparkle back when I was in middle school. He always had such amazing and welcoming energy! I just saw him recently to get new retainers, and he is just the same as he was 10 years ago. He treats all his patients with care and makes all of us feel special!!

I went to Dr. Salins for my braces in high school, and I'm so happy with how my teeth turned out! The time I had my braces on for was shorter than what was expected, and my teeth have not moved since. Any issues I've had since then such as broken retainers, Dr. Salins has always been happy to help. My sister currently goes to him for her braces and she has been super amazed at her progress so far. Everyone in the office is very friendly and experienced and I could not be happier with my choice!!

I visited Dr. S in 2015 for ceramic braces and they turned out to be stellar! Had them on for 2 years and and my teeth and smile has never been any better. I looked forward to each appointment because I couldn't wait to til the day my braces were off. Each appointment was always on schedule and my teeth was cared for thoughtfully. The folks here are so accommodating and fun to work with. Fast forward 4 years later, in the middle of a pandemic, I reached out to Dr. S via email at about 11pm because my bonded retainer became loose. He was very quick to respond that same night and booked an appointment for me to come in few short days later. I was in and out within 15 minutes. I can't recommend Dr. S enough. He is the best orthodontist out there who really looks after each of his patients' smile. Whether you are an active patient or past patient, you can count on Dr. S for fantastic results.

Dr. Salins has been my orthodontist for six years now and I wouldn't trust my smile to anyone else. I had braces when I was a teenager (years and years ago) and my teeth had moved considerably over the years. Dr. Salins and team got me on an Invisalign plan and restored my confidence in smiling again. I recently had to get replacement trays for ongoing maintenance and the office was quick to accommodate me. Their responsiveness, professionalism, and caring attitude make it an outstanding experience. I highly recommend them to anyone!

Best Orthodontist in the Bay!! NO LIE! I love my smile soo much, before I used to cover my mouth when I laughed or smiled. My teeth were so crooked, some were playing hide & seek hiding behind one another lol. The confidence that I have now is at an all time high! People compliment my smile so much & I love it. I've never felt so good. I highly recommend, so if you're thinking about it please Trust Dr. Salins & his team. Thank you Dr. Salins & staff for everything and making me smile again without having to cover it up.

I was recommeneded by my dentist to go to Sheldon Salins for my ortho treatment. Ive always hated and felt nervous about going to the dentist. However, upon arrival for my consultation, i knew i was going to be in good hands. Sheldon brings a bright and postive energy to his workplace. I watched Sheldon and his team run their facility while waiting and all i can say is EFFICIENT! The whole process from the consultation to the monthly appointments was a breeze. My teeth came out looking GREAT and I couldn't by happier. Sheldon is not all about the teeth, he also creates a warm personal relationship with his clients. For example, he always genuinely asked how my family and work was going. I also find Sheldon unique and fun because he rocked a bowtie instead of a boring tie. I know if my kids ever need ortho treatment, ill definitely be taking them to Sheldon. Thanks again Sheldon and your team!

Dr. Salins completely helped me get back to believing in my smile again! After seeing how good of a job he had done with my girlfriend's teeth, I had to pay him a visit. Unfortunately my teeth shifted due to my wisdom teeth coming in, but thanks to Dr. Salins they are back and straighter than ever before. The whole staff was very kind and helpful throughout the process, and were always there if I needed anything or had any questions. Dr. Salins is also one of the most positive and energetic people you will meet, which really helped calm my nerves about the idea of getting braces. By far the best in the BIZ!

Dr. Salins and team have been my go to ortho for over 3 years now and I couldn't be happier with my smile and the service! The team is incredibly responsive and Dr. Salins has personally responded to my emails, usually same day! Overall, the team is very comprehensive, friendly, trustworthy, and transparent. The office is always in pristine condition and they definitely have the latest and greatest technology. I've also never had to wait longer than 5 minutes to be seen. Obviously, no one wants to be in a long term relationship with their ortho, but the team makes it totally doable, maybe sometimes even enjoyable. If you're on the fence about invisalign as an adult, it is 100% worth it. I didn't think my teeth would qualify, but they did! And years later, my wife still says I have a great smile (she kind of has to, I guess), but so do my friends and family!

I was recently in Dr. Salin's office and had such a wonderful experience! I highly recommend Dr. Salin's and his amazing staff to anyone that is in need of orthodontic work. Dr. Salins is a hoot! He is very friendly, outgoing, welcoming, kind, and generous. My mom went here a few years ago and she would tell me how Dr. Salins was always cracking jokes and singing during her visits. Side note, my mom's teeth have never looked better! Dr. Salins has helped her feel more confident in her smile and it is so great to see her feel better about herself. Since getting orthodontic work myself, I have gotten many compliments on how straight my teeth are. The rest of the staff is super kind and considerate. Some of them even remembered me from when I was a kid/teenager (Same staff, different orthodontist back then). Dr. Salins remembered hearing about me from my mom when she was seeing him for her teeth and was genuinely interested in getting to know me personally after hearing so much. Which should show you that Dr. Salins and his staff actually care about you as individuals and take the time to get to know you. They wanted updates on my life and asked how my mom was doing (easily 15 yrs since I had last seen them and maybe 4-5 years since my mom had seen them). They also took the time to figure out what I wanted out of this visit and then made recommendations. Dr. Salins was very understanding of the current situation (Pandemic and financial hardships on people) and helped me find the best solution for now and what to consider for the future when things turn around. This discussion was completely comfortable. There was no judgement, only understanding. He just wants to help his clients in any way he can. My most recent visit was to get a new retainer and I couldn't be happier with its quality and fit. It's sooooo much better compared to the retainer I had as a child (a wire one). I actually enjoy wearing it compared to the last one I had that I loathed. The new one looks like clear braces/invisalign. Advancements in retainer technology are at work here. Thank goodness! Honestly, I had such a fun time with Dr. Salins and his team that I almost want to mess up my teeth just to go back and hang out. I know that's weird to say, but that's just how much fun it was. I have never been so relaxed in an office environment. Also, I think it's worth mentioning that I hate going to the dentist (the sounds and tools are torture. I thankfully do have a great dentist, but that doesn't mean I enjoy going.), so it should speak volumes that I actually want to go back to Dr. Salins office. When it came to setting up my appointment, I believe I left a voicemail and received a call back within 24 hours. I was able to get an appointment quickly. You fill out a Covid questionnaire 24 hours before you appointment. My consultation and appointment itself were quicker than I thought (I think about 45 min). I had my new retainer within 2 weeks and bada bing bada boom. I cannot express how thankful I am to Dr. Salins and his team. They work magic.
