Dr. Miller was wonderful. He is a rare blend of gifted technician and artist. I would recommend him to anyone. I love my new smile !!
Dr. Miller & his team are the best (special shout out to Deb & Katie). We have been going to Dr. Miller for years and our experience has been wonderful. Not only has he taken personal phone calls from me after hours (I thought I was calling the office, not his personal cell phone), come in early to make an adjustment on my daughters braces but today he called before our appointment to reassure myself and my daughter about the plan. When she left the office after her last visit, her mouth was sore and she was teary. Katie noticed immediately and made sure to make a note for the next visit. She (my daughter) is probably more on the sensitive side and the fact that they recognized it and adjusted to her meant the world to both of us. They truly want the experience to be good for every patient. Thank you!
Dr. Miller is an exceptional orthodontist who is very straightforward and honest about what to expect regarding timeline and results. My daughter just completed her treatment and we could not be happier with the results! I will definitely be taking my younger son to Dr. Miller when he is ready for braces.
I did Spark for a little over a year and I love the results. There was no point in my experience where I regretted by decision. It was so easy and flew by in no time. Highly recommend. Ava Tulkki (14) I will follow that review with the same sediment's. As a dental provider myself I can understand what it takes to create a great patient experience. The level of care that Dr. Miller provided and attention to detail is first-class! Thank you!
"Do the right thing" is the only thought that comes to mind when I hear about Advances in Orthodontics. Recently my permanent retainer broke and needed to be fixed. I was happily greeted by Deb when I walked in. She somehow remembered me from 8 years ago when I got my braces off. Without going into detail, Dr. Miller fixed my retainer and did some other touch up work since I was there. He even fixed my chipped tooth! All the staff was exceptionally kind and welcoming. Overall, I was impressed to experience the same great service I received when I was going through braces 8 years later! I would recommend Dr. Miller and his all star team to anyone in need of orthodontics work.
