My professional life as an orthodontist has given me an opportunity to meet many people and to influence their lives. My patients are amazing, and I respect every one of them whether they are children or adults. Many have to overcome challenges with the appearance of their smile as well as other life challenges. I am inspired by their positivity and bravery throughout their treatment with me. I continue to learn and grow from each and every patient I treat, and it is my honor to be their orthodontist. I am grateful they choose me to go on this journey with them. Dr. Daniel Very
