Clear Wave Orthodontics is an absolute game-changer! As a parent of three kids, my older two had their orthodontic care at a different office before... Clear Wave opened its doors, and let me tell you, the difference is at another level!!The level of service and care provided here is far superior to any of our previous experiences.From the moment we stepped in, the staff greeted us warmly, making the whole family feel welcome and comfortable. The orthodontists and support team here are not just experts in their field but also incredibly down to earth and easy to talk too. They took the time to listen, explain procedures thoroughly, and ensure my son is at ease throughout his treatments. He’s about half way thru.The office itself is modern, clean, and equipped with state-of-the-art technology, which adds to the positive experience. The convenience of scheduling appointments and the flexibility offered for our busy family life is a huge plus.Clear Wave Orthodontics has truly set a new standard for us. I highly recommend them to any parent seeking top-notch care and a friendly, professional environment for their children’s orthodontic needs. I’d give ten stars if I could!read more

Starting with the initial consultation, it’s not only comprehensive but straightforward and informative. I enjoyed the discussion we had about the... range of options and treatments. Everything was thoroughly explained. Once I decided on a plan for my teenage son, he was treated like royalty on his first appointment. All of his questions were answered and it took less time than I expected. Not only is the office setting and décor lovely, the staff is kind and helpful as well. The cherry on top is a Dr who cares and wants what’s best for her patient and not just the bottom line.read more
