The office is beautiful, clean and smells really nice: I was hesitant at first from a review years ago. :-) but that was like I said years ago!!! and the comment to me had no relevance. These people are great! And Dr Moles is so nice and honest.

Dr. Moles and his staff are wonderful people and are effective at creating an upbeat, welcoming atmosphere. However, after completing treatment, I was told to wear my retainers every night for a few months and then every few nights thereafter. I wore my retainers every night (and I mean EVERY night) for years after I got my braces off and my teeth have still moved up/down to the point where a few of them are back in their pre-braces position. I'm only 2-3 years out from treatment, my teeth should not have moved this much. It's very disappointing to spend so much money only to have temporary results. If you're looking for lasting results, I would go elsewhere. I made my concerns known to Dr. Moles before getting my braces off and he assured me this wouldn't happen, yet here I am seeking treatment again from a new orthodontist. Very disappointing.
