About Fairlawn & Cortland Orthodontic Specialists

Appointments tend to start almost exactly on time, and braces treatment—including a nearly invisible option—draws praise from anxious patients and busy families.

Reviews at this Fairlawn practice point to punctuality as a real strength: appointments frequently start within a minute of the scheduled time, and the office is described as flexible about rescheduling missed visits. Treatment results come up often too, with a crossbite corrected in about a year and a half and an incognito braces option praised for being nearly invisible, which several adult patients appreciated. A number of reviews also mention that anxious or nervous patients felt at ease within minutes of meeting the doctor.

I just finished up a large cosmetic procedure at this location. I’m beyond thrilled and happy with the work that was done to me. I’ve always felt insecure with my smile for years and never thought I would see the day I can smile and feel good about myself. The office manager Tiffany was very professional, kind and extremely knowledgeable about all my questions and concerns with what I wanted. The dentist and all the other staff made me feel safe, welcomed and treated with professional care. Forever thankful this office provided me with a better smile, which has now made me more optimistic in life.

I have always been fearful of the dentist. Guess I just had to find the right one! From the front desk staff, dental and Ortho assistants and all the doctors, everyone was amazing! I still have some treatment to complete and can't wait for my smile to be amazing!

Had an emergency that was handled so well that I barely have words for it. Traveling for work and ended up losing a tooth right before a family friends wedding. Everyone from the front desk to the back was extremely professional, kind, and competent. 10/10 recommend this dentist to anyone looking for phenomenal work.

This is literally the best dentist/orthodontist practice for new patients. The we’re able to get me in quickly, walked me through the whole process as a new patient and it was easier than anywhere else I’ve ever been. Can’t speak highly enough of the front desk ladies and expert staff here. They all knew exactly what they were doing, very professional and friendly!
