About The Big Smile Orthodontics
Dr. Jane Nicole's team is known for handling complex cases in young children, from expanders to avoiding jaw surgery through careful treatment adjustments.
Young kids show up often in reviews here, with notes on expanders and early appliances used to make room for adult teeth before braces even start. Dr. Jane Nicole is described as thorough and willing to adjust a plan, including reworking an adult's course of treatment to avoid jaw surgery and resolving cross-bite or underbite cases without surgical intervention. The office is also noted for a game room and reward systems that help younger patients get through appointments, and for same-day fixes when a wire or bracket breaks. A few reviews mention treatment stretching longer than expected or results shifting after braces came off.

Recent reviews from Google
I loved how clearly and realistically the orthodontic steps and financial expectations were given at the beginning. Staff were friendly, answering any questions or problems that came up during the course. When my daughter accidentally broke a wire or spacer, we were able to get a quick appointment to fix it, usually the same day. Getting braces probably isn't any teenager or parent's idea of a fun time, but the smooth process, friendly staff, and reasonable costs made it so much easier to handle.
Excellent experience at The Big Smile. Super friendly staff, convenient appointments, competitive pricing! We highly recommend Dr. Jane and staff!
