My son and family had a great experience with Family Orthodontic Care. Our son is extremely sensitive, and Heather was able to relax him and help him through the two year process of Braces. Its amazing to see the before and after photos of our sons smile. We highly recommend Family Orthodontic Care. Amazing Caring Staff.

I’ve been going to Family Orthodontic Care since 2015 and they are the sweetest people. They’re extremely efficient and knowledgeable about everything ortho. I had Braces on for 4 years and am still going back for retainer checks.

My teeth are now extremely straight and healthy looking thanks to them. My family and I have never had any problems with them and their procedures- If you’re looking to get your kids braces or your own braces somewhere, look no farther than Family Orthodontic Care

They provide an impressively thorough evaluation for Braces for my son. Another practice in Norwich was not nearly as thorough. The other practice said put braces in, yet this one said don't do it at this point.

The other had a pretty generic reply about why braces were needed, well this one was clearer and more tailored to the specifics of my son when explaining why braces at this point would not make sense. This reminds me of how I once had a dentist who would do fillings for even the slightest cavity, well the new dentist who have now seen for many years does not do nearly as many fillings with the same or greater levels of cavity.

I got Invisalign here and she filed my 1st bicuspid (28) too much (seems like she was in a trance), causing lasting pain and misalignment in bite, along with my naturally thinner enamel…. Straighter teeth, but at what cost? At least she listened when I INSISTED I wanted to keep my canine teeth pointed. It seems that they simply want to sell Invisalign. If you do decide to get Invisalign, do NOT get the Invisalign style retainer, ask for the classic style retainer.

The Invisalign style retainer also messed up my bite, and cracked very easily. Now I don’t want to wear it at all. Quite sad about this, really.
