โญโญโญโญโญ I cannot say enough good things about Senestraro Orthodontics. When my daughter’s regular orthodontic office was closed, she was having a painful braces emergency and needed help right away. Even though she wasn’t a patient of theirs, they got her in the very same day, fixed the issue, and wouldn’t even let us pay for the visit. The entire staff was incredibly kind, compassionate, and professional. Their office was spotless, welcoming, and well-run. It’s rare to find a business that goes so far out of its way to help someone with no expectation of anything in return. Their exceptional customer service made a stressful situation so much easier, and I am truly grateful for their generosity. I would highly recommend Senestraro Orthodontics to anyone looking for orthodontic care.

We have always had such positive experiences here! We especially enjoy Kyle the therapy dog, he has been great at calming my daughter’s nerves and something she always looks forward to. They have a great token reward system too. All the staff is very knowledgeable, friendly, and extremely patient with the kids. Thank you for such a good experience and giving my daughter a great smile.
Response from the owner:Thank you for your kind words & trusting us with your daughter Meghann!
Dave R.
Just finished our second child’s braces and I’ll actually miss this place. They are such pros and all so friendly. It’s a pleasure to witness such a well run local business. Thanks team!
Response from the owner:Dave, thank you for trusting us with your kiddos! We will miss you guys too. Enjoy their beautiful smiles!

TL;DR: 100/10, Highly recommend! I want to preface this by saying that I used to work in orthodontics, so when looking for an orthodontist, I was looking for more than just a treatment plan. I'm looking for the right vibe, culture, and overall experience. I had been quoted elsewhere, but it just didn't feel like the right fit. From the moment I walked into this office, I knew it was different. The front office staff greeted me with huge smiles and made me feel genuinely welcome. Scarlett, the treatment coordinator, is such a beautiful soul. She was outgoing, relatable, and took the time to really get to know me and understand what I was looking for. I never felt rushed or pressured, and I definitely felt heard throughout the consultation. I also have two French Bulldogs at home, so seeing the doctor's dog in the office instantly made me feel right at home. It's those little things that tell you a lot about a practice. Overall, you can tell that the doctor and staff truly care about their patients, their culture, and the work they do. Everyone seems happy to be there, and that positive energy is felt the second you walk through the door. If you're looking for an orthodontic office that feels warm, welcoming, and genuinely caring, I highly recommend checking them out.
Response from the owner:Valerie, thank you for taking the time to leave such a raving detailed review. Your words mean so much to us, especially with you coming from the world of ortho. Treatment plan, right vibe, culture & all the things you mentioned are all the things we strive to excel at to give each of our patients an exceptional experience...and who doesn't love a cute Frenchie? Thank you again for the kind words & choosing us!

Treasure T.

My 11 year old felt comfortable at our consultation and they answered all our questions in detail.
Response from the owner:We are so happy your 11 year old felt comfortable! Thank you for the 5 stars!
Natalie L.
They were all very friendly and informative. At no point did I feel rushed when asking questions.
Response from the owner:Thank you for your kind words Natalie! We loved seeing you yesterday!
Allison
Wow! I am really impressed. This orthodontist seems to be everything my regular orthodontist is not. Everyone I encountered here has been terrific. Their customer service is top notch. Another thing I love is that their office is geared towards families not just kids. I felt respected here. As an adult, it didn't seem weird to be in the dental chair I had a large wire coming off a permanent retainer. My regular orthodontist's earliest appointment was about a month out. Senestraro has four locations was happy to help and ensured that I was seen quickly. Over the last six months this wire has come loose several times. Each visit costing at least $250. Today Senestraro encouraged me to take it off for good. They explained everything really well. Then they spent about 15 min removing the glue from my teeth. They also were able to provide referrals for speech therapy in the area. They helped me today at no cost. I am both shocked and grateful. If I could go back and start my tooth straightening journey again I would strongly consider Senestraro.
Response from the owner:We are so happy this has been your experience! We will share this with the team, they will love hearing it!
Annie L.
Very welcoming, and professional. They have been clear at communicating and setting expectations for the visit. Overall a really positive environment!!
Response from the owner:We appreciate you taking the time to share this with us, thank you!

Understanding the Benefits of Clear Braces

Clear braces are a popular alternative to traditional metal braces for those looking for a more discreet orthodontic treatment option. At Senestraro Family Orthodontics, we offer clear braces that are custom-made to fit your teeth and gradually shift them into alignment.

One of the main benefits of clear braces is their aesthetic appeal. They are made from a clear, ceramic material that blends in with your natural tooth color, making them less noticeable than metal braces. Additionally, clear braces are comfortable to wear and can be easily removed for eating and cleaning, allowing for better oral hygiene during treatment.
