As an adult I was concerned about getting braces in my 30s. I was about to have my first child…read morethough and wanted to have a beautiful smile for all of our family pictures. I am SO lucky that I found Dr. Donnelly. He and his staff made my experience a pleasant one, and I had A LOT of correcting that needed to be done. After 2 years of braces followed by retainers, my smile is amazing. Better than I ever could have imagined which the crooked smile I had started with. My only regret is that I didn't get up the nerve to do it sooner. I would and have recommended Dr. Donnelly and his practice to everyone I know, adults and kids alike!

My son went to Dr Donnelly beginning 4th grade. He had a slight underbite so I had him see an…read moreorthodontist early so the bite could be corrected while he was growing. Dr. Donnelly had him begin a pre-treatment. This involved expander and face guard. While my son was using expander, the bracket broke. Instead of replacing, Dr. Donnelly says it was no longer needed. This could have been a coincidence but I felt Dr. Donnelly did not want to spare the $ of giving him a new one. Then next step was to have him wear a mouth guard. My son wore this everyday and night when possible for 3/4 years. It hardly moved anything. At each visit I would point out that this device was not working so perhaps he would be able to do something to help his upper teeth to move. After 3 years he didnt try any other type of procedure that might help the process along. We paid over $3000 dollars for pre-treatment and I feel he did not provide any services. All he did was have him continue to wear a mouth piece and gave us 5 minute office visits every 3 months just to tell us to keep wearing the mouth piece. I felt after a year or so of wearing the mouth guard he should have tried to do other orthodontic work to help the process. He is a scam artist and will try and charge top dollars while doing very little work. A good orthodontist would try and do what is necessary to correct the problem. He had him wearing this for 3/4 years and did nothing else. My son is now 13 going on 14 and still have an incorrect bite with no work done. He says now we should move to braces stage but says my son will need jaw surgery and wants to charge me over 10k for braces. Luckily I was able to find another orthodontist who is willing to do additional work to avoid surgery and will not charge anything extra. He is giving me one price and it includes braces and any other necessary process he needs to do to correct. Dr. Donnelly's office was also not helpful when the other place called for my sons records. I paid for these records and they should release them with my consent. However they make it difficult for you to obtain them. Anyone thinking of using Dr. Donnelly for ortho treatment please get a 2nd opinion so you can compare services and understand what you are paying for.

On behalf of my four-year-old, this place rocks…read more Immaculate precautions for hygenic visits (regulated traffic in and out of the office, temp checks and sanitizing measures at the door, individual purifiers in every patient suite), and never late for a scheduled appointment, it's a tight run ship. Hygienist Lisa was awesome with a hyper, cabin-fevered kiddo, giving names and "kid-friendly" applications to the entire cleaning process (my fave: Mr. Thirsty for the mouth vac). Any discomfort or unease from my boy melted away with her engaging conversation and demeanor. Thank you Lisa. Dr. Heather was direct and didn't try to upsell X-rays, procedures or anything - just straight-forward advice for the next six months of a constantly changing PreK mouth. Plus, he got an invisible ink pen, a Spider Man toothbrush, bubble gum toothpaste and floss sticks on the way out! Where'd the ink end up? My coffee cup and his nose, mostly. Stellar spot that gets kids and what they need to feel comfortable. An easy five stars.

We just went in for a consult because my daughters teeth separated in the front. She wore her retainer as much as she could... When I had braces I never had to wear a retainer and my teeth are still completely straight. When we sat down I thought he would at least give us some kind of halfway help financially seeing that it was his work three years later. The manager made it clear when we were there that that was the case so we wouldn't expect anything for free it was so obvious I was embarrassed for her. Let me get to the point quickly, my daughters teeth do not look like she had braces ever! Instead of taking ownership he wanted to charge me $4000, her braces were $6000, for Invisalign. Can you imagine that? Anyway I'm going to get Invisalign for half the price down at Weymouth Landing. Way too much money this guy is over rated and talks about his family way too much LOL It's funny, he has a board of pictures of kids who just had their braces off, he should have a board of kids three years later I almost offered him a picture of my daughters teeth now and put it up on the board. It's his work he should help financially instead of re-charging almost the same price! It's all, because people ask Jordan where she got her braces after they give her a hard time and she says "Dr. Buechel For all of you reading this start... If your child is suffering from crooked teeth after Dr. Pugh Cal put the braces on for four years do not get Invisalign for $4000 from him. Go to comfort dental in Weymouth Landing for $2000.

It was not uncommon to wait over an hour. We were forced to go to a different practice because the overcrowding, long waits and lack of professionalism by him and staff became untolerable. The biggest offense was calls not being returned Do you know how hard that is to move practices? All the braces had to be removed and reapplied. All the money we paid we had to pay a second time. That's how strong we felt about our experience. So, I recommend that you pass by this office and find a new orthodontist.
