Jul Says...
As a previous braces-wearer, I was reluctant to get back in the chair for another year of more tinkering and adjustments. Cleary hanging onto some major misconceptions, I was absolutely blown away with the ease of the orthodontic regimen. Compliance is key. Beyond that, these minor adjustments yield incredible improvements each month. By the time I got my permanent tray, I was floored by the overall results.
A note about the quality of care here- because it deserves its own review. Especially given the current health crisis, finding truly individualized care can be tough. Dr James and her team have not only adapted to the demand for virtual appointments, but have continued to provide the same level of exceptional health and cosmetic expertise. Dr. James is hands down the warmest practitioner I have come across in this industry. I truly felt she was as excited about my results as I was. When it comes to dental and orthodontic work, you want to be in trusted hands. 20/10 recommend this practice.

Review for Orthodontist Specialist Linda I cannot say enough wonderful things about Lin, my orthodontist specialist. Every visit with her is truly the most enjoyable experience I could possibly have at the orthodontist. From the moment she calls me back, Lin always greets me with a warm smile and addresses me by name, making me feel genuinely welcomed and valued as a patient. One of the things I appreciate most about Lin is her dedication to patient care. She always takes the time to explain each step of the process, ensuring that I fully understand what she is doing. She encourages questions and answers them thoroughly, never making me feel rushed. Her patience and willingness to educate her patients create a level of trust and comfort that is truly unmatched. Lin consistently goes above and beyond to make sure I am comfortable, both during and after my appointments. She checks in with me throughout the visit to ensure that I am doing well and always makes sure I leave the office feeling confident and at ease. Her attentiveness and genuine care make all the difference in my orthodontic experience. In addition to her excellent chairside manner, Lin is also incredibly accommodating when it comes to scheduling. If I ever have an emergency or need to be fit in last minute, she is always willing to help. Her flexibility and willingness to go the extra mile show her true dedication to her patients. I truly enjoy every visit and always request to work with Lin whenever possible. I feel so fortunate to have met such a kind, professional, and skilled specialist. Lin is not only an outstanding professional but also a wonderful person who makes every appointment a positive experience. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of orthodontic care—she is truly one of a kind! Aquila Ashlee Matthews2025-03-13Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. So glad I came across Art of Smile. I was given a new patient appointment in 2 days. Super friendly staff, office was impeccable. My daughter was able to receive treatment the same day as the consult. They accommodated us for follow up appointments as we travel far to come. Linda was awesome… she was informative, super excited for us and went above and beyond to ensure we would be serviced in a timely manner. Prices were in line with expectations. Definitely worth the time and investment you will feel like they treat and give you treatment with care and concern.
