I love to make people smile! It is so cool to see the joy and self-confidence when a patient sees their new smile at the end of their treatment. I love the challenges of designing a treatment plan to efficiently move the teeth and then partnering with my patients to make their result stunning.

Orthodontics is not just straightening teeth to me; it is also about taking the time to really know each patient and truly caring about whats going on in their lives. Orthodontics is a great profession that stretches me to connect with patients. It challenges me to execute excellent orthodontic treatment and brings me great joy when, at the end of the day, I have done everything I can to make my patients smile. Dr. Schlicher

When he is not practicing orthodontics, Dr. Will loves spending time with his wife and sons. He also enjoys a number of sports including cycling, swimming, running, golf and anything else to get outside and enjoy this beautiful area we are blessed to call home.

My daughter had a cross bite issue. one of the famous orthodontist from Dublin asked us to immediately put braces and forced me to act quick but Dr. Schlicher did a simple fix and resolved cross bite problem in a week. I would highly recommend Dr. Schlicher

Dr. Will is an expert. He's patient and knowledgeable. I appreciate that we were not pressured into anything and based on his expertise, some of my kids should wait. The staff is extremely friendly and professional. The office is impeccable. Highly recommend if you need an orthodontist.

They are crazy busy, but super awesome! Dr. Schlicher himself is a gem of a guy and has ensured his staff take care of their patients very well. My daughter sees Dr. Schlicher for her braces and everyone from the doc himself, other practitioners in the office, his front office staff, and his finance team is a rockstar. The results are showing with my daughter's treatment nicely, and the doctor even managed to squeeze us in once or twice without an appointment when we had a minor emergency (braces coming lose). Thank you!

Before starting my son's treatment with Dr. Schlicher we got explanations on every part of the treatment and payment options. All questions about the treatment plan were answered. Dr.Schlicher called to check if everything was going smoothly a few days after a Carrier appliance was attached. My son feels really cared for and appreciates it!

I absolutely LOVE Dr. Schlicher and his entire staff! I went there personally and took my last of 3 children when I was not satisfied with my other children's orthodontist. And recently my oldest son needed an opinion on his teeth because his dentist recommended more ortho work. He went to see Dr. Schlicher and he was honest and told my son that it was not necessary. They are all professional, fun, sweet, and just really make you feel like you are part of their family

Both of my children went to Schlicher Orthondontics and they could not have had a better experience. Dr. Schlicher is amazing and everyone who works in the office is friendly and does a great job. I have dealt with Lisa in reception often and she always takes care of my kids, their appointments, rescheduling and fitting them in around their busy schedules. Thanks!

Dr. Will's office has always been amazing. I received treatment as well as my oldest daughter and now it is time for my youngest daughter to have braces. Her pediatric dentist advised me they are not offering orthodontist services. I chose not to send her to their orthodontist because I knew I wanted her to have an amazing experience as did her sister and I with Dr. Will and his staff. I was so happy to see some of my favorite people in the office on my latest visit. Lisa and Veronica are always so friendly and make us feel so welcome and have literally watched my girls grow up. They make you feel like family. They are taking all the safety precautions due to covid. I wasn't sure what the experience was going to be like due to the current guidelines but we still were as comfortable as ever. Lily was absolutely amazing, our first time meeting her and she was a sweetheart. They never seize to amaze me! Thank you! Monica Carnes

Showing up at schlichers was always a fantastic experience. Lisa helped me with all my questions and just made my all around experience way better. Having someone answer your questions can be very helpful especially when the primary orthodontist don't always have the most time.
