About Western Dental & Orthodontics

Braces treatment appears frequently in reviews, though many also describe long waits and appointments rescheduled without notice.

Western Dental & Orthodontics is a general dental practice that also offers braces, clear aligners, early treatment, and retainers, and braces appear in reviews more often than at many comparable offices. Alongside that, a large share of reviews describe long waits, overbooking, and appointments that get rescheduled or cancelled without notice. Several reviews also mention unexpected costs or upselling, and a number describe inconsistent communication from dentists during treatment. At the same time, many reviews mention staff who helped ease anxiety for nervous or young patients during visits.

Orthodontic care in reviews

One review also noted leftover adhesive from braces that wasn't fully removed after treatment ended.

Exceptional service from start to finish. From the moment I called to schedule my appointment, Maribel was wonderful and helped me get in the same day. Walking into the office felt completely different from a typical dental visit — in the best way. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and everyone I interacted with, from the front desk staff to the doctor and hygienist, was polite and professional.

Apparently corporate schedules multiple appointments for the same time without checking with the local office you're going to. So there are multiple appointments for your same appointment time and they prioritize their orthodontic braces program over normal dental appointments. So I was left sitting there for over 2 hours and when I asked the receptionist when I would be seen as my appointment was supposed to be 2 hours ago. She said since they're doing the braces program it's probably going to be a long time I.e a couple more hours so I left. Apparently they have no control over corporate scheduling appointments via the phone or Web and even then when it's a normal day appointments may still be hours after the appointment time.
