About Orthodontic Specialists

Dr. Jeffrey S. Thompson is credited with resolving complex TMJ and jaw pain cases and steering teenagers toward Invisalign over veneers.

Dr. Jeffrey S. Thompson draws praise for handling complicated jaw and TMJ pain cases and for tailoring clear aligner treatment plans, including choosing Invisalign over veneers for a teenager with small teeth. Several reviews describe multiple siblings from the same family being treated here, with custom plans built around young children's needs. Staff are described as friendly, and a few reviews note the office environment as clean, though a couple of reviews mention billing surprises around CT scan charges and later extractions.

I can call my review: Skepticism to a genuine believer. I was referred by my dentist and really couldn't believe that I could be helped. I am not a youngster! My alignment is perfect and and my lower front teeth are snug as a rug! Thank you, Dr. Thompson!!

I'm 59 yrs old and I've had braces 4 times. TMJ and an old jaw injury have caused me great pain most of my life. Dr. Jeffrey Thompson is the only one who has succeeded in making all my pain go away. Even years of going to a jaw specialist had not helped. Dr. Thompson is truly a genius who really knows his stuff. He also has the best equipment that far surpasses other orthodontists. And, my teeth and smile look the best ever. I highly recommend him! He has a very busy office, but still takes the time to listen to you and explain the process. I just had my last appointment and I am thrilled to be pain free with a beautiful smile.

I’ve was so nervous about confronting my orthodontic needs and had put it off for years as a result. Ever since my initial consultation, Dr. Thompson and his staff have made me feel like family each visit. I feel so lucky to have found the best orthodontist office around. Whether you’re local or little ways, I would make a drive to be able to receive this kind of care. Forever grateful, Erica
