About Smile Studio SA
Dr. Lori and Dr. Fulk take on complex cases, like severe overbites and underbites, that other orthodontists have turned away.
Reviews at Smile Studio SA repeatedly mention Dr. Lori's willingness to accept difficult cases other offices declined, from significant jaw misalignments to underbites, with steady progress reported over one- to two-year treatment plans. Patients describe both Dr. Lori and Dr. Fulk as thorough and unhurried, explaining each stage of Invisalign or braces treatment before starting. The office is noted for handling pediatric cases with sensory or anxiety needs, and several families mention multiple children being treated at once. Scheduling tends to run on time, and a number of reviews point to payment plans that made treatment financially workable.

We moved to Texas before my daughter’s braces were taken off. I couldn’t find a dentist that would take off her braces because everyone was trying to charge me $700 or more. I’m a single mother and that is way out of my budget. I called Smile Studio SA and to my surprise they only charged $250. So I set up an appointment to go. When I got there with my daughter the environment was so warm and inviting. I told my daughter “this looks like the Beverly Hills Dentist!” They even had free coffee and water available while waiting. My daughter was seen in a very short time and the best part is that my payment wasn’t even $250! It was $125! Thank you Smile Studio SA! I was able to treat my daughter to a snack after!!
