After about 4 years, I'm finally done at the orthodontist and I couldn't be happier about being…read moredone. The worst thing that happened here was after I was done with an appointment. I had gotten the wire on my braces tightened for the first time and it hurt a lot so I was crying a bit. I walked from the patient chair straight through the waiting room and out of the office. I was already almost out the door when the lady at the front desk goes "Are those tears I see?!" Of course I kept walking out. She didn't ask if I was okay or anything, and you would think she could tell I just wanted to leave, but instead she said "Are those tears I see?" That was a specific personal experience I had but there are also bad things that everyone experiences here. I hated coming here because of how long I had to spend in the waiting room. Luckily, the chairs in the waiting room are comfortable because that is where you'll be spending a lot of time. I usually got here about 10 minutes before my appointment and wasn't called back for at least 25-30 minutes after my appointment time. My best friends' mom who recommended this orthodontist to us also complains about the long wait in the waiting room. They give you a punch card at your first appointment and you can get different prizes depending on how many cards you fill. When I first started here, the big prize for filling 4 punch cards was a $150 gift card which I was very excited for. I decided from the beginning that was what I would save up for. Once I finally saved up 4 full punch cards, they had changed the prizes to smaller amounts on the gift cards. The best gift card I could get at my last appointment was a $25 giftcard for 3 punch cards. I chose a $25 Amazon gift card and got a $5 Starbucks giftcard with my 4th punch card. The original prize was a very generous amount, but the reason I'm upset is because the $150 gift card was what I was saving up for. Once I finally got enough filled punch cards after 4 years, the prize I got was a fifth of what I had saved up for. I wish they had at least let us know before they changed the prize amount because then I could've at least claimed a giftcard for however many punch cards I had filled at the time. This only upset me because that big prize was what I was looking forward to, especially after 4 years here and the amount of time I spent in the waiting room. I often had to get out of school early because they were always fully booked with after school appointments since most patients are teenagers. On the first day of seventh grade I was at a new school for junior high and I had to leave early on the FIRST DAY for an appointment to get my expander. This was a major inconvenience because I didn't know my way around the school yet and I already had to leave before sixth hour on the first day. However, AT LEAST after 4 years my teeth are finally straight. My teeth started out with my 2 front teeth straight but the tooth on each side sticking further forward. I also had an overbite. After 4 years, my teeth are finally straight and the orthodontic pain is done. And I don't just mean the physical pain of an expander and braces. I also mean the stress I felt every time I was in that waiting room. I knew whatever they did was going to hurt so the 30+ minutes in the waiting room just made it worse waiting for what was going to happen. Even worse, I often was still waiting about 15 minutes after getting seated before they started anything. One time they put the thing that sucks air to dry your teeth in my mouth and had me bite down on it for like 15 minutes while they were doing something with other patients which bothered me because I didn't know when they were going to come back. Hopefully you find a better orthodontist after reading this review.

My daughter had food stuck in her teeth, and instead of rinsing it off for her or allowing her to brush while the wire was off they just said to have her brush better and let it sit on her teeth.

TDR has the latest technology in terms of diagnostic tools, appliances, and internet service. You can see your child's pictures on the website if you create an account, so the parent who is not able to attend appts gets to see. They explained very clearly what they wanted to do and why. They discussed pros and cons of treatment, best case/worst case scenarios. They had us wait on braces for my son stating that his adult molars needed to come in, and they explained that his canines should drop naturally, and they did (which means less time in braces) So I did not feel rushed/pushed into anything. After my daughter's palate was expanded they put in a maintenance appliance that is much easier to eat with and care for. They discussed my insurance with me, answering all my questions. Their communication and paperwork is forthright and clear. They offer 5 & 7% discounts if you pay up front with credit card or check. I get appt reminder text messages. I have never waited more than 5 minutes for my child to get onto their appt. They highly encourage patient responsibility and care, so they educate my kids about brushing, etc. That's a huge support as kids don't like to listen to their parents. Their prices fall within national average for service, tipping slightly toward the higher end, from what I've researched. My son's Tx was 5k before insurance & discount, my daughter's $3700. I feel like I am paying for peace of mind and time (they save me time). My daughter's teeth look great, and turned out just as they predicted. can't comment on my son's as his Tx isn't done yet. The assistants are super nice, relate well to the kids, and remember what you talked about last time. My ONLY complaint is that the female doctor started pulling my daughter's teeth (the roots were gone, they were caught on her appliance which is normal) without saying what she was about to do. It did not startle or hurt my daughter, j surprised me. I did not know anyone at TDR before I was referred there.

This was I'd say at least 10+ years ago and I have to admit Russ has not only become my all time favorite Dentist, but I TRUST him and every suggestion that I've had to deal with over the past decade, which did include many root canals, crowns, and those dang cavities. I have never had insurance, as he knows, but he does NOT gouge the wallet of patients. His attitude is fantastic, yes a very kind person, regardless of what (tina? and ?jason?) say in comments from a decade ago. *(thank goodness he moved away from the trailer park known as warren) :) I have cleanings every 3 months from him and my teeth are looking great!
