About Petrunic Orthodontics
Dr. Christopher Petrunic is repeatedly credited with a conservative approach, recommending second opinions and holding off on braces rather than rushing families into treatment.
Reviews describe Dr. Christopher Petrunic as conservative in his diagnoses, sometimes recommending a second opinion or delaying treatment rather than pushing patients toward braces they may not need. Cost comes up favorably too, with some families noting quotes notably lower than competitors and flexible payment plans without unnecessary credit pushes. Orthodontic reviews mention overbite correction, adult jaw misalignment treated with braces, and a conservative approach used to avoid extra rounds of treatment for twins. The office is also noted for handling nervous kids and mid-treatment transfers smoothly.

I made an evaluation for my son for braces. I liked the warm and personable environment. Everyone was very nice and informative. I felt like they took time to explain everything for me. I liked that Dr Petrunic did not try to get me to sign up for braces prematurely. I will be getting both of my boys braces done here when it is time.

Dr. Petrunic and all of his staff are so friendly and kind! Very thorough in explaining treatment needs vs cosmetic needs and not at all pushy.

From the first phone call to make my appointment...IT WAS FANTASTIC! Everyone was dynamic. So nice and pleasant. Ms. Charlotte is now my sis forever and Dr. Petrunic...I hope you don't get tired of me. We are family now. Thank you all for making me feel comfortable and at home. I love it🥰🤗❤️😁

We had a great experience at my daughter’s consultation today. I left feeling like they had her best interest at heart and weren’t out to just take our money for unnecessary treatment. I’m confident in trusting them with my daughter’s treatment in the future.
