About Becher & Gil Orthodontics
Complex cases like severe underbites, impacted teeth, and jaw surgery prep get handled here, per reviews of Dr. Becher and Dr. Gil's conservative, no-extraction approach.
Becher & Gil Orthodontics comes up often for families juggling several kids in treatment at once, as well as adults returning years later for further work like Invisalign before veneers. Reviews note the doctors taking on unusual or difficult cases—impacted teeth, underbites, jaw surgery coordination—often with a conservative approach that avoids extractions and shortens treatment time. Early phase-one treatment for younger children is mentioned more here than typical, alongside a comfortable office with games and snacks that helps anxious kids through appointments.

Hands down Dr. Becher and Dr. Gil are the best! I couldn’t ask for better care for my son. All growing up I had lots of orthodontic work for many many years and I can’t imagine better customer service, professionalism, skill and over all fun and an amazing experience all around! So grateful !!!

I had Invisalign personally and both my boys had metal braces from Becher and Gil. Bar none, the best Ortho experience I've ever had. The entire staff cares so much and it shows. Best Ortho ever!

Staff is so professional and kind, they answered all of my questions and they are very knowledgeable and supportive. They made me feel much better about getting braces. I highly recommend. I also want to shout out Kimberley, the treatment coordinator. She is absolutely amazing!!!! She was a huge part of my experience going so well.

I was referred to Dr. Becher for specialty orthodontic work and my experience has been great. The patient coordinators are super easy to work with and all the techs are very knowledgeable and nice. The 3 doctors here are thorough and give great personalized care. Fatima has helped with my adjustments and is always friendly too.
