About Parker Orthodontics
Years-long treatment for complicated crowding cases and a track record across several offices give families confidence under Dr. Joshua Parker.
Families across several locations describe Dr. Joshua Parker's practice as consistent through multi-year treatments for complicated crowding and extensive dental work, often citing straight, confident-looking smiles at the end. Multiple offices and accommodating scheduling make it easier for busy households to keep appointments, and several reviews mention traveling a distance because it was worth it. A handful of reviews describe frustrations with front-desk responsiveness and a couple flag treatment timelines running longer than expected, but most reviews report satisfying, well-managed results even in extensive cases.

We had such a wonderful experience at Parker Orthodontics! From the very beginning, they made us feel comfortable, welcome, and completely at ease. The entire staff was friendly, caring, and professional. Dr. Parker was extremely knowledgeable and took his time to explain everything clearly, answer all of our questions, and make sure we understood the treatment plan. We never felt rushed and truly felt like we were in good hands. It’s clear that they genuinely care about their patients and take pride in providing excellent care. We highly recommend Parker Orthodontics to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, compassionate, and trustworthy orthodontic team!

I love my new smile! My close friend cannot stop looking at me now. After starting orthodontic treatment with another doctor, I decided to finish with Dr. Parker and that was the best decision I’ve made. My teeth are so perfect now. Thank you Dr. Parker and your beautiful team for taking great care of my teeth. Now my smile is so bright and pretty as ever. My confidence has definitely improved. I totally recommend Dr. Parker for your orthodontic treatment, I promise you will not be disappointed.
