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.

My experience from 2 other orthodontist, I say TC Orthodontics AKA ( Kemnitz Orthodontics ) is one of the best. Their service starts with smile at every visit, each time you're warmly greeted. Great at communicating both in the office and on the phone, the entire staff provides top notch care to their patients. I have referred my whole family and friends to here. Kedir M.

I have been with TC Ortho for years now, and I love them! Bobbie is great and so is my Ortho. Love seeing them continue to improve over the years, would highly recommend Edit: Covid is making things hard and I get that but better communication between staff members and from staff to patients would be appreciated.

I really like this place. They made me feel very welcomed and comfortable. The manager Vicki, really worked with me on the financial part as well as getting me an appointment to get my braces on right away. Today 7/15, I got my braces on, the the dentist as well as his assistant did a very good job with making me feel completely comfortable and made sure I knew everything that they were doing to my teeth each step of the way. I was scared/nervous when I was about to get them on but they talked me through it and calmed my nerves, it didn't hurt at all! The office is very clean and everyone that I met with seemed very happy. Everyone had smiles and seemed to enjoy what they were doing. If you want a very clean, friendly, financially flexible place to get your braces...this is definitely the place to go!!!!!!!
