Dr. Gehring truly changed my life. Not only did I get my braces off much earlier than expected, but my smile exceeded my expectations and I feel like a whole new person. Not only are all the staff so talented, but they also genuinely care so much about each and every patient and it made having braces as an adult a much more enjoyable experience than I thought it would be. Thank you Gehring Orthodontics!!

I ran into Dr. Gehring’s son and noticed how beautiful his teeth were and asked him who his orthodontist was. He said my dad. I work for an orthodontist so I have seen a lot of cases. This guy does amazing work😊

I shopped around before making a choice. My initial consultation w/ Jill & Dr Gehring left me feeling confident that they not only valued my business but understood my unique, mid-life orthodontic needs. They put me at ease and quickly earned my trust. Every visit, from the front desk to the assistants, ALL were pleasant, helpful & even made it fun. (Even the landscaped garden & streaming music puts you in a good mood)! They made allowance for unexpected issues & appointments as needed. They answered every question & offered guidance throughout my twenty-nine month process. Dr Gehring was nothing less than positive, efficient & professional w/ just the right touch of humility & humor at every office visit. I highly recommend their services & plan on bringing my four children in as needed. After years of settling for a less-than-ideal smile, my teeth now look & feel great! I am so happy w/ the outcome & extremely satisfied w/ my investment in Gehring Orthodontics!

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING EXPERIENCE! If I could give 10 stars I would. As a matter of fact heres the 10 stars they deserve ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. Id like to start off by saying my teeth were all messed, janky and needed more then alot of work. I had absolutely 0 experience in what I was getting myself into but after my free consultation, I knew I was in the right place. The establishment was beyond clean & family friendly place was inviting & welcoming. But I told them I wanted to try to get a perfect smile & with there expertise & help…..I have reached that goal. I was very satisfied with the game plan they had laid out. After doing EXACTLY what the Doctor said & attending ALL my appointments…..I can now say I have a smile that gives me a reason to smile 😀!!!!! For anyone that is nervous or debating on getting braces…..DONT & I repeat DONT WAIT!! Go to Gehring and let them do all the heavy lifting and planning. I was debating this for years due to me being nervous but Gehring made this process SOOOOOO EASY AND EFFORTLES !! I was beyond pleased with how they took not only GREAT care of me but how professional, genuine & knowledgeable they are. But hey don’t take my word for it….you see my new smile ???? I cant fake that 🤣 Thank you Gehring Orthodontics & your team for making this happen 🙏
