Who doesnt love a beautiful smile? Come to think of it, who doesnt love a smile, period! I feel very fortunate to work in an environment where people are smiling;and as a bonus, I get to participate in the creation of those smiles.
You dont need perfect teeth to smile, but perfect teeth can certainly enhance a smile. When your confidence to smile is increased through orthodontics, your smile becomes more authentic; you can see the difference not just in the teeth, but in the eyes. The eyes light up when someone is smiling confidently.
Of course, I didnt mind a little break from school now and then. The warm and friendly environment that my orthodontist created ignited a passion that inspired me to choose a career I love, and as a bonus, I also got straight teeth.
My practice philosophy stems from my experience when I went through orthodontic treatment. I want all patients that come to TC Orthodontics to feel relaxed and enjoy the experience ... perhaps even be inspired. My goal is to create an experience where our patients want to come to our office just to have fun. Maybe my staff and I will even see those eyes start to sparkle.

Exceptional! Super customer service! We were told by another provider that my son needed a permanent tooth removed. TC Orthodontics has since resolved the issue with a spring in the braces. Here is what I love about them: Excellent help sorting our insurance! Easy appointments that run on time. More affordable than the other 3 estimates I got. We love the unique awards program. My children can earn amazon gift cards for things like flossing/brushing and A's on report card! Very motivating! Amazing front desk staff. Love the free coffee set up for parents in the waiting room! Could not be more please overall! YES go here!
