About Murray Orthodontics
Dr. John Murray and Dr. Warren Libby favor a watch-and-wait approach, timing treatment start carefully and often guiding multiple siblings through years of care.
Families with several children moving through braces or Invisalign over the years describe a practice that doesn't rush into treatment, instead waiting until the timing is right for each child. Reviews highlight Dr. John Murray and Dr. Warren Libby for patience with anxious kids during expander and braces planning, and for spotting unrelated oral issues along the way. Scheduling flexibility, quick fixes for broken brackets, and a lively office atmosphere with prizes and games also come up often.

Dr. Murray is awesome. Our 11 year old is needing to have a pallet expander and lower braces put in and Dr. Murray has been very helpful with coming up with a plan and taking things slow to help with our sons anxiety. I'm very thankful for his emotional intelligence when it comes to looking after his patience well-being. Definitely recommend!
