Staff is so friendly!! We didn't have to wait long before being called back. Candace took good care of us. She explained the different options of braces which who knew there were so many!? There are your traditional wire braces, there are Invisalign and then there are Light Force braces which are similar to the traditional however they are custom made to the molding of your teeth. They are smaller and more comfortable and a quicker treatment option given they are made to your specific teeth. It's digital alignment -- LightForce uses indirect bonding, which means the brackets are placed on a model of your teeth in the exact position your doctor has prescribed. These are also translucent so they blend better with your teeth however you can still get color options should you want to change out the colors. There is no charge for a consultation appointment fyi. We chose to go with the Light Force option which will probably take about 15 months as opposed to traditional which could take 24 months. And you don't have to go in as frequently for checkups. They have in-house payment options and also a lending company to help set up payment options that fit your needs.

I was between this office and another office when I initially got braces and went with the other…read moreoffice due to cheaper cost. HUGE MISTAKE. The wait times were horrible, the results weren't great, and my retainer never fit correctly. I stopped wearing my retainer after a year because it hurt every time I used it and my teeth ultimately shifted back. I knew I was going to go with this office the second time around and I am kicking myself for not doing it in the first place. The staff is incredible, the orthodontist is exceptional, and the whole overall experience was amazing. I got my braces on the same day as the consultation. The cost was broken down into interest free payments and I was given a realistic timeline for the length of my treatment. I never waited more than 10 minutes for my scheduled appointments. I am so happy with my new smile (:

His attention to detail is exceptional. He is patient, thoughtful, and incredibly thorough.

If you're someone who is very detail-oriented, anxious about outcomes, or needs reassurance along the way, you are absolutely in the right hands here. Dr. John listens, explains, and genuinely cares about getting things right -- not just acceptable. I never felt rushed or dismissed, and that made all the difference for me.

I have not personally met Dr. Stubbs, so I can't speak negatively about him directly. However,…read moreduring the short period of about five months that my son was a patient, most of our interactions were with the staff who handled the tightening and adjustments of his braces, and those ladies were very kind and sweet. My one-star review is solely based on a very unpleasant experience with the office manager who handles billing. Back in October, she and I had a conversation about getting my son back in for treatment due to some unfortunate personal circumstances. She informed me that I could not schedule an appointment unless I made an upfront payment, which I was not comfortable doing at the time. I decided to wait a few months until I was more financially stable. This was especially disappointing because I had previously been told that my other son would need braces about six months from our last visit. Fast forward to January 2026: I called the office with the intention of scheduling both of my sons together--one who had previously been a patient and one who had never been a patient--for orthodontic treatment. Before I was even given the opportunity to explain my plan or discuss any payment options, the office manager immediately brought up my first son's account and refused to schedule either child. She specifically stated, "If you didn't uphold your payments for one son, how can we trust you to pay for the other son's treatment?" She continuously talked over me and did not allow me time to explain my intentions or discuss payment arrangements. She then claimed that I owed over $2,000 for services my son never received and stated that I would need to pay over $400 toward that balance before she would even consider scheduling my other son, who had never been a patient. I expressed that I did not agree with how the office was handling this situation and felt we were being treated unfairly, especially since services were never rendered. This interaction felt more like a money grab than patient care. When I voiced my concerns, she attempted to intimidate me by repeatedly referencing the contract I signed, stating that payment was required whether or not my son attended appointments. She also claimed that all orthodontic offices operate this way, which I know is untrue. My entire family has had braces, and before moving to the Tampa Bay area, my son attended a dental office that never charged for services that were not provided. My advice to anyone considering this office: please read your contract carefully. I never expected to be in a situation where life circumstances would interfere with my ability to bring my son to appointments, but the moment that happened, I was treated poorly and made to feel like a criminal rather than a parent trying to do the right thing for her children. Both of my sons are now patients at a different orthodontic office one that values families, communicates respectfully, and does not penalize patients for services that were never received.

I have had poor experience in the past when I was younger and have had a bad taste in my mouth about dentists but the staff was amazing and made my experience comfortable!

The…read moreexperience left me so nervous about dental work that I avoided getting it fixed again for far longer than I should have, despite it being cosmetically unappealing. From the moment I came to this office, the entire team made me feel comfortable and understood. They were patient, reassuring, and never made me feel rushed or judged for being anxious. They were thorough Without making me feel overwhelmed. When it finally came time to fix my tooth, I was honestly expecting the worst. Instead, the procedure was completely painless, smooth, and far less stressful than I ever imagined. For the first time since the original damage happened, I was able to get the problem resolved without pain and without the overwhelming anxiety I had carried for years. I'm incredibly grateful to have found Dr. Giddens & ALL of the hygienists (I've probably seen every single one over the last two years lol) who takes my anxiety seriously and creates such a calm, supportive environment. If you're someone who struggles with dental anxiety like I did, I truly can't recommend this office enough. And the outcome was AMAZING.
