Nikki S.
We were able to get in to the Sherwood office for our initial treatment consultation within a week of calling and requesting. When we arrived the team was very welcoming and friendly. Mel and Dr Seth were so kind to ask our daughter about her hobbies, interests and comfort level with treatment. We look forward to beginning orthopedic treatment with Dr Seth!
Jody P.
Great experience. I appreciate the zero interest payment plan and the clear communication.
oscar M.
My son is not a fan of anything to do with his teeth. My mom recommended we take him to Senestaro since my sister goes here as well and has had nothing but good experiences. This place was so welcoming and good with him he left excited to come back. Their payment plan is exceptional and what every place should have available especially for people with big families. All my son can talk about is being excited for his next visit. Thank you to all the great staff for having such an awesome place!
Response from the owner:Thank you for your kind words Oscar! We are so happy that we have made it a positive experience for your son. We are excited to see him again too!
Naomi W.
Fast, kind, and generous. I needed an urgent repair to my permanent retainer (20+ years old from my original braces, placed by a different orthodontist). Senestraro got me in within days, did the repair in under 5 minutes, and did not even charge me. Dr. Seth and the staff I interacted with were warm and welcoming.
Response from the owner:Thank you for your 5 star review Naomi! We are so happy that we could help you out!
Meleah M.
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.
Response from the owner:Thank you for your 5 star review & generous words! We are so happy we were able to help your daughter in an emergency. Our team strives to give every single person an exceptional experience, so we are thankful that we were able to do that for you!
Meghann V.
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!
Valerie G.
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!
rachel P.

Response from the owner:Braces on the same day-YAY! Thank you for choosing us Rachel!
Treasure T.
Awesome services ! I loved my time I spent 6 months and my teeth look amazing ! They truly know what they’re doing and they take care of their clients.
Response from the owner:Thank you for letting us take care of you!

Factors to Consider Before Starting Orthodontic Treatment

Before starting orthodontic treatment, there are several factors to consider. One important factor is the severity of your malocclusion or bite alignment issue. Depending on the complexity of your case, treatment duration and type of orthodontic appliances may vary.

Another factor to consider is your commitment to oral hygiene during treatment. Maintaining good oral hygiene is crucial to prevent tooth decay, gum disease, and other dental issues while wearing braces or clear aligners. It's important to follow your orthodontist's instructions for proper care and cleaning of your orthodontic appliances.
