One of the absolute best dental experiences I have had in my life. Camille always welcomes me with a smile and a compliment when I enter. Savannah and Simone make me feel like one of their girlfriends when they are changing my wire and Dr.Moore is an absolute professional! She is very thorough and has communicated every step of my treatment. Everyone is competent and so personable! Highly recommend Dr.Moore and this practice.

Dr. Mariesa Moore and her team at Atlanta Orthodontic Specialists are the bomb! They are very professional with all the latest technology and cool toys but they are also personable and fun. Simone is the consummate precessional and we had fun picking out different color combinations for the braces. The results were better than expected a they got it all done ahead of schedule. Oh, and BTW, the Buckhead location has ample feee parking. Check them out. F M S

Dr. Moore and her entire group at Atlanta Orthodontist Specialists in Buckhead are superior. There is a positive vibe in this clean office, clear that all the highly skilled personnel enjoy working together and their service provided to children and adults is awesome as a result. Their location is easy to find on Piedmont just a couple of blocks down from Roswell Road, east to get in and out of and parking is free and plentiful. My teeth look better than ever and Dr. Moore's attention to detail has made all the difference. Thanks to her and her entire team at Atlanta Orthodontist Specialists in Buckhead for my new lovely smile.
