About Stony Point Orthodontics & Children’s Dentistry
Dr. Byrd is repeatedly credited with steering patients away from jaw surgery, expanders, or extractions in favor of more conservative treatment plans.
Reviews describe Dr. Byrd taking a conservative approach to treatment, with several accounts of him avoiding jaw surgery, expanders, or tooth extraction when he judged them unnecessary, including a case that corrected an underbite without surgery. The office itself draws notice for its vibrant, kid-oriented design, complete with a waterfall and seasonal decorations, plus updated equipment. Families with several children in treatment mention finishing braces ahead of the estimated timeline and describe special needs kids being accommodated, including general anesthesia when needed.

I would like to express my sincerest gratitude to Dr. Byrd and his entire team, especially Mrs. Carmen A., for caring for my children’s dental health for the past nine years. From day one, we have always felt welcomed at your office and have consistently received exceptional care. Over the years, we have witnessed many transitions, including office changes, challenging circumstances, and even the pandemic. Through it all, we have always felt genuinely cared for with professionalism, kindness, and dedication. I would like to give special recognition to Mrs. Carmen A., who always takes the time to explain every procedure in detail, answer our questions with patience, and make sure each appointment is adapted as much as possible to the needs of each patient. That level of commitment, empathy, and attention truly makes a difference. I am making this public recognition because I feel deeply grateful, from the bottom of my heart, on behalf of myself and my two children. Thank you for so many years of outstanding care, warmth, and excellence.
I recently had the opportunity of bringing my one-year-old granddaughter and her mom to her first dental appointment. It was a fantastic experience. The staff welcomed her, made her feel like she was the most important patient, and were nothing short of incredible. The thing I noticed was that the staff was treating every patient that way. It is a beautiful office with a professional team that obviously loves what they do. It’s a rare thing to find a team that turns a milestone moment into a lifelong memory, but they did just that. We walked in as patients and left feeling like family.
Dr. Byrd is an amazing orthodontist and human. His expertise is unmatched. He has encountered many difficulties in its my children’s teeth due to teeth coming in sideways, in the wrong place, etc. He has handled all issues flawlessly and miraculously in some cases! He is also wonderful with my children. They love him and love talking with him each time we come in. I wouldn’t go to any other orthodontist!
