Dr. Woods and his team are very professional. They listened to all my concerns and answered all my questions. As someone who is in their mid-30s, I never dreamed that I would be able to smile confidently with my teeth. With the help of Dr. Woods and his team, now I can. They were able to help me make that dream come true. I am thankful beyond words.

Burgandy G.
From the moment I stepped into the office, to ringing the completion bell today…I have always felt welcomed and cared for. Dr.Woods and his team are out of this world amazing, and truly care about all their patients! Dr. Woods was the third ortho I had gotten a consultation from, and the ONLY ortho that did not require teeth being pulled before braces. The first wanted to take 8 teeth, the second wanted to take 4. I am overjoyed to say that I have all my teeth, including my wisdom teeth, and have completed my ortho treatment with Dr. Woods. I originally sought orthodontic care because of my deep bite that caused headaches, ear aches, and jaw pain. A year into my orthodontic treatment all pain was gone! Getting super straight teeth and a beautiful smile is a big bonus! Thank you Dr. Woods and all his staff! I look forward to the end result of my son’s treatment as well. 😁
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your wonderful review, Burgandy! We're thrilled to hear that you felt welcomed and cared for throughout your orthodontic journey with Dr. Woods and our team. It’s fantastic that we could provide a solution without extractions and relieve your pain, while also giving you a beautiful smile. We appreciate your trust in us for your son's treatment as well, and we look forward to delivering the same great experience for him. Your kind words mean the world to us! Sincerely, Dr. Woods & Team!

Dr Woods more than surpassed our expectation. When we first went there and had our son diagnosed he gave us the time frame in which he was able to complete it several months early no doubt due to his expertise and awesome staff! It almost makes me wish I had to get braces thanks so much Dr Woods.
