About Brite Orthodontics - Timonium (formerly Barron Orthodontics)
Braces and aligner cases often finish faster than the national average, with Dr. Thomas Barron personally checking in on progress each visit, though the recent Brite merger has brought some inconsistency.
Many reviews point to treatment finishing ahead of typical timelines, with braces and aligner cases often wrapping up in under a year and teeth staying straight years later. Dr. Thomas Barron is repeatedly credited with checking in personally on progress and explaining each stage before starting. The practice also draws a notable number of teen patients, with mentions of rewards programs and comfortable handling of expanders for younger kids. Since the merger with Brite Orthodontics brought in additional rotating orthodontists, a number of longtime patients note less consistency than before in treatment planning and staff continuity.

This isn’t Barrons practice anymore. Ive seen a different orthodontist the last three times there and each time ive gotten different recommendations and changes to my treatment plan. I do not recommend coming here anymore as it is not the same practice it once was….
Worst orthodontist and staff. Do not recommend. Dr Barron was ok but when he sold out to Brite, they lost staff and cannot keep orthodontists. Been there for 3 years and refuse to return and my teeth look worse now than when I started. Just stay away from them. I’d give zero stars if I could. Additionally, they’ve changed their phone system and you cannot speak with a live person. I’ve called and emailed over 10 times without a response.
I had three children treated at this office and would have given it five stars under Dr. Barron. Unfortunately, since the transition to Brite Orthodontics, I can no longer recommend it. My child has seen a different orthodontist at nearly every visit, and the technical staff has completely turned over. The lack of continuity has resulted in conflicting treatment recommendations and inconsistent care. Each orthodontist seems to have a different opinion on what needs to be done, making it difficult to feel confident in the treatment plan.
Brite Orthodontics is incredible! The tech was immaculate in appearance, had the latest up to date equipment and got the task accomplished very quickly. The ladies at the front desk were also very polite and efficient. I would recommend Brite Ortho to anyone considering Orthodontic procedures.
I can’t say enough great things about Dr Anna! From the very first visit, she made me feel completely comfortable and confident in my sons orthodontic care. She is incredibly knowledgeable, gentle, and patient, and she always takes the time to explain everything clearly. Anna truly cares about her patients and it shows in every interaction. Her attention to detail and positive attitude make each appointment a pleasant experience. If you’re looking for an orthodontist who is both highly skilled and genuinely kind, Anna is the best. I’m so grateful to be under her care!
