About Kulkarni Orthodontics
Dr. Kulkarni personally calls patients after appointments, even on weekends, and the office moves quickly on broken wires or urgent fixes between visits.
At Kulkarni Orthodontics, Dr. Kulkarni is known for calling patients personally, even on weekends, to check how they're doing after procedures, and the office fits in urgent wire repairs or broken bracket fixes quickly between scheduled visits. Reviews report results such as corrected bites and straighter teeth, often through two-phase treatment for children alongside braces or Invisalign for adults. Pricing comes up as transparent, with payment plan options and some reviewers noting shorter timelines or lower costs compared to other orthodontists they had consulted.
