I interviewed 3 different orthodontists (all recommended by my Dentist, Dr. Glass in Milpitas) before deciding upon Dr. Wadden. While the other two were about 20% cheaper than Dr. Wadden, his professional, technical and customized approach he explained in detail to me was more than enough to decide that he was very astute and on the ball when it came to addressing me as an individual, not just another "cattle call".
While getting braces late in life (close to 50 yrs old!), is not very pleasant or comfortable, I must say that Dr. Wadden proved over and over by his methodical approach visit after visit that he was dedicated to making my teeth come out just right (in fact, it took almost 3 years instead of the originally expected 2 years which proved to me that he had long ago made his money (I paid the bill over a 2 year period) but was more interested in the quality of his work than being in "it for the money".
I highly recommend Dr. Wadden if you want a professionally done job - by the way, his staff (assistants and front desk) are all great! Also, he actually gives out his home and cell phone on his office recordings in case of an emergency! Wow! (luckily, I never had to use it). read more
