Tilghman Orthodontics

Tilghman Orthodontics is a highly-regarded orthodontic clinic with locations in Salisbury and Berlin, Maryland, serving patients across the Eastern Shore. The practice is led by Dr. Michael Tilghman, who has over 30 years of experience and is joined by Dr. Carrie Schwartz. Both doctors are committed to providing exceptional orthodontic care for children, teenagers, and adults. The clinic prides itself on offering a wide array of treatment options to suit individual patient needs. These include traditional metal Braces, which are a durable, reliable, and cost-effective solution, and ceramic braces, which offer a more discreet alternative with tooth-colored brackets. A significant focus of Tilghman Orthodontics is clear aligner therapy, featuring both Invisalign and their proprietary in-house system called Smiles Correct. Smiles Correct aligners are custom-made using advanced 3D printing technology, offering a more affordable and efficient clear aligner option with direct doctor supervision. Tilghman Orthodontics emphasizes a patient-first approach, striving to create a comfortable and welcoming environment. Their offices are equipped with modern amenities, including a movie theater, café, and Wi-Fi, to enhance the patient experience. They utilize cutting-edge technology such as iTero digital scanners to eliminate the need for traditional goopy impressions and provide precise 3D views of the mouth for customized treatment planning. Beyond teeth straightening, Tilghman Orthodontics also offers diagnosis and treatment for Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ/TMD) disorders, addressing jaw pain, difficulty chewing, and other related symptoms. The team is dedicated to continuous education and staying updated on the latest advancements in orthodontic care to ensure patients receive the most effective and efficient treatments available. They also work with patients on financial options, offering in-house financing, discounts, and Care Credit.
