My daughter has been a patient at the Providence location for her braces for almost 2 years now. The entire staff from reception to billing to the assistants to the doctors have been excellent. Appointment times are flexible and always available. The location is very convenient and we can’t wait to see the results when her braces are taken off. The couches in the waiting area are also very comfortable!
We loved Anchor Orthodontics. I am an official USCIS sponsor of now almost 18-year old Ukrainian boy and his mother. Right before coming to US to escape the horrors of the war, the boy had a pallet expander metal plate installed in Ukraine. Now that he is out of his braces after over 2 years, we wanted the plate to be removed as well, but his orthodontist didn’t do that. I found Anchor Orthodontics using ChatGPT as someone who can remove this specific type of plate. The process of calling and getting all the records and scheduling an appointment was super easy. The team was amazing. The communication was superb. We are extremely happy that plate was removed today and he can go to the prom tomorrow! Thank you, Anchor Orthodontics!
My child had Phase One treatment at another orthodontist, and unfortunately it ended up being a complete waste of time and money. We were not happy with the experience at all. Since switching to Anchor Orthodontics, the difference has been night and day. Everyone here is incredibly friendly, patient, and professional. They take the time to make sure my child feels comfortable and calm throughout every visit. Their attention to detail is impressive, even applying chapstick before beginning treatment to help keep my child comfortable. The office is spotless, the atmosphere is relaxing and welcoming, and the technology is truly state of the art. They offer advanced treatment options, including ceramic braces, and use equipment unlike anything I’ve seen before. Most importantly, they genuinely care about their patients and go above and beyond to make children feel at ease. I highly recommend Anchor Orthodontics to anyone looking for exceptional orthodontic care.
Dr. Lavigne and her team are the best! We’ve had a great experience at Anchor Orthodontics — it was worth the drive. But when we found out about the second location in Providence, it was a no brainer. The same great Anchor care for both of our kids, with less than half the drive time.
10 stars! Dr. Lavigne, Dr. Cardarelli, and their entire team are by far THE BEST in this field. Being a dentist myself, I always want to send my son where other doctors send theirs. This IS where we send them! There are very few orthodontists who understand growth, development, airway, and orthodontic movements like Dr's Lavigne and Cardarelli. When it came time to decide who would treat my son, it was a no-brainer. I drive an hour to see Dr. Lavigne and I'd triple that because the expertise, experience, and results are worth that and so much more. My son's case has gone so smoothly, he looks and feels incredible, and he genuinely loves visiting the team at Anchor because they make him feel so welcome and comfortable. I am constantly referring my own patients to Dr. Lavigne because I know they will get the best care and I have the luxury of actually being able to back up that statement when I see them for follow-ups. I could go on for hours about how thankful I am and how much I trust them but I'll suffice it to say, if you have gotten this far in your research, just give them a call. You will feel the difference right away. When you choose Anchor Ortho, you are choosing optimal health and results in a warm and caring environment... and who wouldn't want that?
