Love Encinitas Ortho Team and Dr.Liatti!! I came to…read moreDr.Liatti after getting many other opinions suggesting surgery because of my complicated ortho case as an adult. Dr.Liatti was honest and attentive since day one, allowing me to try Invisalign with my complex case. It's been a long journey but it worked and I couldn't be any happier. I'm more confident about my smile and my quality of life has increased drastically! Ortho can be challenging and time consuming but if you have realistic expectations (and wear your retainers) you will see life changing results. Thank you Encinitas Ortho and your amazing staff for always making me feel welcomed and making this journey so smooth. Special shoutout to Kathleen for being awesome!

I value the fact that they send reminder texts, they have always been easy and quick to accommodate if I ever had to reschedule. They are very fast, which can be a good thing, or can be bad (if they miss something). To be clear and transparent, I have finally finished my programs and have my braces off, praise the Lord. I recently went back because of the permanent, inside wires became loose and had to have it reglued. I was upset that they were not transparent with their pricing. I was told a certain price over the phone and they said I could decide whether to move forward with the process or not, but when they took me in and the Orthodontist had already reviewed my mouth and the broken piece, at that point, I was charged for the consultation and could not go back. I wish I had known that it would be $240 to repair, I would have checked somewhere else first.

While our daughter may eventually need braces, Dr. Melanie has never rushed the process. Instead, she has carefully monitored her growth and progress, keeping us informed and reassuring us that if and when treatment is necessary, she'll be ready to step in. What truly stands out is that she could have recommended braces now, and potentially again in a few years, but chose a more thoughtful, cautious approach. That decision speaks volumes. It has built real trust with our family and shown us that she genuinely has our daughter's best interests at heart. We're also grateful for the kindness and professionalism of Dr. Melanie and her staff during every visit. When and if braces are needed, we are completely confident our daughter will be in excellent hands and receiving the very best care.

Just came back from my appointment at Hulse Orthodontics for an orthodontist consult and all I can…read moresay is that this office is AMAZING! ********************* FIRST IMPRESSIONS: After looking at reviews on yelp, I decided to give Hulse Orthodontics a call to schedule an appointment. Right off the bat, the woman on the phone was so sweet, polite, and was able to answer all of my questions in a heartbeat. Instead of having to wait a week to schedule my appointment they had openings the same week! I ended up scheduling for 2 days out. When the day arrived, I drove to the office using google maps. It was very easy to find since the side of the building said Hulse Orthodontics. The parking lot was very spacious and had ample parking available. Right when I walked in, I was so amazed by the interior design. It was so modern, rustic, and comfortable. Basically - nothing like all the other dental offices I've been to. Instead of a dental office, I felt like I was in a new home showing. I could tell that the office was very kid friendly because there was a separate section for arcade games, what?! I walked up to the front desk and the woman already knew it was me even though it was my first time! I had already filled out the forms beforehand so I handed her those and got checked in within a minute. After about 3-5 minutes, another staff member grabbed me to go do all of my scans. This is a predominantly female staffed office FYI. Everyone was super nice and seemed to enjoy working at this office. ********************* ORTHO CONSULT: I can go on and on about my experience, but I just wanted to say that Janelle and Dr. Hulse was AMAZING during the consult. They told me the good, the bad, and what I should expect. Janelle was so knowledgeable and answered all of my teeth and insurance questions without any hesitation. Overall every staff member I met today were very kind, smart, and professional. I wish they did general dentistry here too, but unfortunately only orthodontia. I saw a lot of kid, teen, and adult patients so I know that this office is popular for all ages. Overall, I am going to recommend this office to every single person I know. The customer service here was absolutely amazing. I could have gone to a different ortho office to get my treatment for a smaller, lower price, but I am happy to pay for the customer service and informative treatment here.

I've had an underbite for my entire 40+ years of life. I have seen many professionals who told me…read morethat painful corrective surgery was required, that included breaking my jaw. I believe all of them advised against it as my bite was not negatively affecting my life. I was taunted for it when I was younger but it wasn't anything I couldn't handle. A couple of years ago, John Ibarra with Signature Orthodontics told me to come in for a consultation. I was very dismissive about it but he insisted he could change my bite without surgery. I was skeptical during the consultation, I was skeptical when he said Invisalign could fix my bite, I was skeptical when my first set of trays arrived, and I was skeptical when I started wearing the Invisalign trays. It was not until about 4 months along, when my bite started to change, that I finally believed it was happening. Today, my bite is normal and I am not self-conscious about smiling. Big thanks to John Ibarra, Dr. Jerome, and the rest of the Signature Orthodontics team for changing my life! I highly recommend them to anyone looking to brighten their smile!

I was referred to Dr.Jerome by my regular dentist, and honestly, it was one of the best referrals…read moreI've ever had. When I first found out I needed orthodontic treatment (possibly braces or Invisalign), I was really hesitant. I am not a big fan of dental visits, and the idea of seeing a new specialist didn't exactly thrill me. But I felt at ease when I walked into Signature Orthodontics. The front office staff, especially Terri, made the process smooth and stress-free. She was incredibly friendly and professional and went out of her way to help accommodate scheduling needs (to the best of her ability). Communication was always clear, whether by phone or email, and I never had to wait long for a response. They even handled the insurance side of things, which took a huge load off my plate. I was equally impressed when it came to the consultation with Dr.Jerome. The team walked me through every step, from X-rays to discussing treatment options, and ensured I fully understood everything. I appreciate how they listened to my concerns and goals, and the office vibe was just super positive and welcoming. Even small things like the music added to the experience, it's not just a dental office; it feels like a space where you feel at ease. Throughout the treatment, Dr.Jerome and his team communicated with me, whether it was showing me how to put on rubber bands or checking in on any discomfort I might be feeling. They encouraged honest feedback and created an open space where I felt comfortable speaking up about anything that wasn't working for me. I really appreciated how upfront they were about pricing and insurance. They explained everything in detail (and in easy-to-understand terms), offered flexible options, and answered my questions without rushing me through the process. I never felt like "just another patient." They truly took their time with me during the appointment. Now, after finishing my Invisalign treatment, I couldn't be happier. My teeth are much more aligned, and the entire journey felt smooth, professional, and honestly enjoyable (which I never thought I'd say about orthodontics). If you're looking for an orthodontist who delivers high-quality care with a friendly, communicative, and professional approach, I highly recommend Dr.Jerome and the entire team at Signature Orthodontics.
