Hyde Orthodontics

Hyde Orthodontics is a dedicated orthodontic clinic situated in American Fork, UT, serving the North Utah County communities including Alpine, American Fork, Cedar Hills, Highland, Lehi, and Pleasant Grove. The practice has a long-standing history, operating for over 40 years, with Dr. Hyde leading for the past 16 years. The clinic prides itself on offering personalized care with a "face-driven treatment planning" philosophy, meaning they evaluate each patient's overall facial structure, not just their teeth, to determine the most suitable treatment plan. This ensures a comprehensive approach to achieving optimal results. Dr. Hyde completed 10.5 years of education after high school, including college, dental school, and an orthodontic residency program, demonstrating a strong commitment to specialized expertise. Hyde Orthodontics provides a variety of orthodontic solutions for all ages. These include traditional metal braces, clear ceramic braces for a more discreet option, and removable clear aligners. They utilize advanced diagnostic and treatment techniques such as digital scanners for accurate 3D models of teeth, Damon brackets, Insignia, and OrthoCAD. A key aspect of their patient care is their emphasis on early orthodontic evaluations, recommending a check-up for children no later than age 7. This allows Dr. Hyde to identify and address potential jaw growth issues or emerging tooth problems early on, which can prevent more serious complications and simplify future treatment. The clinic is known for its warm, family-friendly atmosphere, where the staff is described as highly trained, professional, and caring. Patients frequently praise the friendly environment and the unhurried, individual attention they receive. Hyde Orthodontics also prioritizes patient comfort and convenience, offering flexible payment plans, working with major insurance companies, and providing complimentary follow-up appointments for retainers. Testimonials highlight excellent results and a positive overall experience for patients and their families.
