About Mellion Orthodontics - Fairlawn and Medina
Adults revisiting orthodontics for shifted teeth or old bite issues often choose Invisalign here, sometimes avoiding jaw surgery through alternative treatment plans.
Clear aligners come up more often than braces in these reviews, with several adult patients describing full smile transformations after years of shifting teeth or childhood orthodontics that didn't hold.

I cannot say enough great things about Mellion. The entire staff is absolutely amazing from day one to perfection finish. They made the whole braces experience effortless for my teen daughter, her final result was an absolute gorgeous smile. You know it’s great when on her final day she expressed how sad she was that we don’t get to come back. From one parent to another, I would recommend the Akron office over and over for any kiddos or adult contemplating orthodontic work. As my daughter would say, “amazing, no notes”.
Everyone is so kind and helpful. They really care about their patients and create beautiful smiles!!! 100% recommend
Great experience as an adult. Having been through lots of dental procedures including orthodontics, this was a superior experience. They listened to all my concerns and no high pressure sales. Very professional office. I would highly recommend them. Thank you. Donna S
Our family has been with Mellion for many years now and we wouldn’t have it any other way! After I had an awful experience as a teenager with my own orthodontic care, I was very picky about where I wanted to take my own children. The first time we walked into the office, there was nothing but kindness here. From the staff at the front desk, to the assistants, to the orthodontists- they have all been such a gift to us! My kids have had such a great experience that I even decided to have some concerns addressed with my own teeth and can say first hand- I would never want to go anywhere else.
Great people! Very professional, yet personable! Truly a fantastic place and my experience with having braces was truly one of a kind...positive!
