My younger sister has severe dental anxiety, so I expected orthodontic appointments to be difficult. Surprisingly, the team here handled her fears really well from the beginning. They explained tools before using them and checked constantly to make sure she felt okay. One appointment took longer because she needed extra breaks, but nobody acted impatient about it. After several months of treatment, she actually walks into the office calmly now instead of panicking beforehand.
They have been amazing to both of our kids. They are always super accommodating and work with our crazy schedule. Each appointment has been quick and efficient. You can't go wrong with Old Metairie Orthodontics :)
Dr. Block is so amazing! I chose to see her for my son’s braces after hearing that she was the best and witnessing her beautiful work on others. She is so kind, compassionate and honest. She assessed my son and told us to return in 6 months before moving forward. She anticipated him to grow more which could result in changing his treatment plan. I truly appreciate her integrity, she is definitely not out to charge her patients needlessly but do what us in their best interest. Her receptionist is so wonderful as well! Looking forward to trusting her with my son’s care.
Dr. Block and her staff are PHENOMENAL! I always look forward to my visits as the professionalism and quality of care are A1! I am super pleased with my results and I can honestly say my teeth have never been in better care!😊❤️
Old Metairie Orthodontics had a knowledgeable staff, a professional atmosphere, and takes care of their patients' needs. I appreciate the service and friendliness that they provided us with when we were patients.
