About Hillsdale Orthodontics
Jaw surgery, MARPE, and TMJ treatment show up often in reviews here, alongside Invisalign care led by Dr. Alix Leemin and Dr. Kimberly Handick.
Reviews at Hillsdale Orthodontics frequently mention Invisalign and clear aligner treatment, along with retainer work that comes up more often than typical, including same-day repairs for patients who transferred from other states. A number of reviews also describe more involved treatment, such as jaw surgery paired with braces and MARPE procedures, with several patients noting improved sleep and breathing afterward. The office itself is often described as bright, modern, and well-equipped, and its neighborhood location near a library with easy parking gets specific mention. Two doctors, Dr. Alix Leemin and Dr. Kimberly Handick, are noted as collaborating on treatment plans together.

Hillsdale Orthodontics was a wonderful place for my kiddos to get their expanders. The staff was super friendly, patient, and supportive. Really liked the experience.
I write reviews on people and places that I feel have made a massive difference in my life. I was referred to Hillsdale Orthodontics by my primary dentist and I am incredibly grateful. I had braces as a young child and remember how nervous I had been for my appointments. Coming in today for Invisalign, I got a bit more information than what I had ever been told by any dentist and it validated so many symptoms I’ve been having. When you walk in the door, the space is bright, light, and inviting. They use an open concept for cleanings and make everyone feel like they are here, together. One piece of the visit that I felt was such a game changer, was the orthodontist I worked with but anlso a staff member named Kailyn. Kailyn has helped me since day one, from my first phone call, to my in office visit, to the ins and outs of their Invisalign program. The cost of my own Invisalign due to jaw misalignment was a bit higher than I expected, but the team helped me understand all of my options, and laid things out in a way that was very understandable and comfortable. As a nurse, your team can really change the dynamic of a workplace, and I appreciated how every person treated their patients as well as those they work with. The technology they use in office is also something to note. They have updated X-ray machines, updated Invisalign scanners with 3D photo renderings and 3D printing. If you’re looking for a place to feel completely at home - this is definitely the place.
We couldn’t be more happy with Dr. Leemin and the whole team at Hillsdale Orthodontics!! From start to finish they were fantastic!! very professional, friendly, kind and guide us to the whole process with such a great care. They went above and behind to make sure everything was done right. We highly recommend them!!! Thank you so much for all your expertise and hard work!!!!
Hillsdale Orthodontics has been wonderful! Both of my daughters used them-one for braces and one for Invisalign. I highly recommend them.
I'm about 4 months into a MARPE procedure... already a night vs day improvement to my health -- breathing, sleeping, exercising better. Smelling things better, singing better. Can't thank them enough
