About Longo Dietz Orthodontics
A father-daughter team, Dr. Longo and Dr. Dietz, treats anxious kids, special-needs patients, and mid-treatment transfers from other orthodontists.
Reviews describe a father-daughter partnership, Dr. Alfred Longo and Dr. Meghann Longo Dietz, who work with young and anxious patients as well as several families transferring mid-treatment from another orthodontist.

Outstanding !!! I have been going to Dr. Alfred Longo for over 30 years, and he retired four years ago, and his daughter has taken over the practice: Dr Dietz, and I only go in so often to get a retainer. However, every time I go in, I am welcomed, made to feel at home, and receive the utmost professional service that you could ever get. I highly recommend this orthodontist office. My favorite part is the fact it is a smaller and homey office a place that reminds me of when I was a kid! My children are all grown, but if I had a little kids that needed braces or any other type of orthodontic care I would definitely bring them there, it is just a just exceptional place!
