About Puccio & Hussain Orthodontics
Clear aligners are a major focus here, with reviews describing quick Invisalign adjustments and one doctor meeting a patient after hours to fix an appliance.
Invisalign and other clear aligner treatment come up far more often than braces in reviews of this practice, with patients noting gaps closed, crowding corrected, and adjustments handled quickly between appointments. Dr. Gary T. Puccio has stepped back from a full-time schedule, and Dr. Syed Rassal Hussain now treats many of the patients Dr. Puccio once saw, with both doctors described as knowledgeable and calm with patients of all ages. Several reviews mention responsiveness that goes beyond the ordinary, including a doctor providing a personal number for emergencies and meeting a patient outside office hours. Families with multiple children in treatment also mention flexible scheduling that works around school and work.

Wonderful experience! Drs, nurses and staff are always pleasant, upbeat and experienced. Throughout our time we were always informed every step of the way about what to expect from the visit as well as constant communication from the medical team about what to expect in the chair. A great medical model. End results were fantastic.

This is a great practice! I was referred here in the fall of 2024 by my dentist for an open bite and some overcrowding. I just completed my treatment and moved on to retainers as of today. I am ecstatic with how my teeth turned out. The entire staff is so friendly, helpful, and accommodating. They really know teeth! I am very grateful to have wound up in such expert hands. I highly recommend them for orthodntia.

I did my Invisalign treatment with Dr. Puccio and his staff. They were all very friendly and always on time. Their hours were awesome for my schedule. The treatment was great. Dr. Puccio only wanted perfection from my smile. They did all the leg work between his office and my dentist office. I couldn’t be happier with the results!! Thanks for the great experience!!
