If I could give 100 stars for the Sawmill Carolina Braces team, I would. I had braces in middle school and my teeth have slowly moved back close to their original position--overcrowding, overlapping, etc. For 10 years now I've been wanting to look into getting them fixed but feared the old bulky metal braces I once had. I had been told that I probably wasn't a candidate for Invisalign, so I decided to just deal with my teeth as they are (FYI: apparently Invisalign is not just cosmetic anymore so you may be a candidate now!). Then my friend Jamie got the invisible braces with the one small wire and I noticed how BEAUTIFUL her teeth were. I took her recommendation and hopped on CB's website just to "look around" on a Sunday night while doing nothing. Jessica from the chat box instantly reached out and made me feel comfortable and at home answering any questions I needed. Then on Monday morning, I had a call from them even before the day started. They couldn't be nicer and couldn't have made this a less daunting process. Their customer service is IMPECCABLE and they make you feel like family right away. I met with Linda on my first visit and we talked like we had been friends forever. She worked with me as needed on a payment plan and I signed up the first day (and guess what? I was a perfect candidate for Invisalign)! I could NOT be more excited to start this new journey. The experience really has been super impactful and I'm very grateful. Thanks to the entire team there. If you're like me and have been letting fear keep you from a great smile and added confidence, then contact CB. They will make the process so easy for you. As I walked out of the office, the head ortho--Dr. Foley--came and gave me a handshake and sincerely said "I'm so happy for you." Just the best experience!!!! Thank you again. read more

All, I just got finished writing a very long and positive review on google and now in yelp. This is how much I appreciate Dr. Kent and his team of amazing people. I know you can't please every single person, no matter what you do for them and that's any where. I work with people all day long for work and some people are just not satisfied, even if you give them the world. This office is very welcoming, professional, knowledgeable, caring and I enjoy coming in. They also have a very well kept salt water fish tank to look at and a few arcade games to play while you are waiting, along with a great front desk staff to talk too. I've had 8 teeth removed from my mouth and happy I did that, than had my jaw broken and replaced. I had my braces put on around September 2015 and just found out during my consultation, yesterday that I will be getting my braces off on February 8th 2017. I was given a time frame of 2-3 years and they worked very hard to get it done quicker, but done right. They do there job right and you also have to do yours. It will take a longer process if you don't do what they say. I did everything I was suppose to do and now getting them off sooner. Great job, everyone. I appreciate everything you have done for me and is why I went and wrote a review on 2 different sites. Dane- 2/2/17 @12:37pm read more

My experience with Dr. Kent and his entire staff was the best. I had 2 boys go through orthodontic treatment at Carolina Braces and Dr. Kent went above and beyond to make sure that their teeth were perfect before removing their braces. He spent time explaining what was being done on each visit and I never felt like he was "dashing in and out" of our appointments. In fact, he gave me his personal cell phone number in case any problems arose or if there were any questions about my sons orthodontic treatment ! How many doctors do that? The office is very clean and they even gave me a tour of their sterilization area which they explained rivals the same procedures as hospital surgery sterilization protocols. There are great amenities like coffee and juice for myself and my kids as well as a theater and several gaming areas which they love. I have recommended Dr. Kent to several friends and all have been as impressed with his service, his office, his outcomes and his staff. read more

This Place is Awesome!!! Dr. Kent and staff at Carolina Braces have been such a great experience for all of us.( Patient and parents) We were not sure where to go for our son to get his braces, and when we heard about Dr. Kent from referral and a neighbor we called and asked to meet with him. Once we met his staff and had time with Dr. Kent on how soon braces were they needed, how much was it going to cost and how often we needed to get him there - it became so very simple, we felt so at ease and started the plan. We have just made an appt. to get the braces off and will truly miss the staff and Dr. Kent. Also, just to mention, It was so nice to have two locations so close together if we needed to quickly get in for an appt not scheduled and with school and baseball in the mix we were always able to be seen and no hassle that day or next. read more

I have been going to Dr Kent for over five years. He and his staff are a huge blessing to so many ppl and myself. His team is very professional and super focused on giving clients the maximum care for their orthodontic needs. I promise you, you will have made the best decision if you decide to use his services. On days that I would have a wire poke my gums due my teeth gaps closing, his staff would schedule me in right away to have the issue resolved asap. I just want to say thank you to Carolina Braces for all that you have done for my orthodontist needs. I also want to thank Natalie for her level of care that she has provided while adjusting my braces and the good friendly conversations we have about life and my travels. Thanks again to to the best Orthodontist on planet earth Carolina Braces. read more

I was so fortunate to have been referred to Dr. Kent's office. We were greeted and welcomed by the friendly front desk staff, then waited almost no time before Carey came to get us. She was caring, professional and sweet. They took 3D images and could easily show me all the clinical findings and help make a treatment plan that we could understand. Dr. Kent was patient, knowledgeable and so friendly. He explained everything in detail and showed true concern and seems to have a true passion for what he does. Christine helped with the payment plan and was kind and thorough. The office was beautiful and calming. Overall a great experience, and I would recommend this office to anyone I know who needs an orthodontist. Thanks Carolina Braces!!. read more

Carolina Braces is definitely the best orthodontic practice in the area. I interviewed several orthodontists and this office definitely stood out head and shoulders above the rest. My entire family are patients here...all seven of us, and we couldn't be happier with the results! The office atmosphere is welcoming, the entire staff is helpful and accommodating and Dr. Kent and Dr. Foley are simply exceptional. Our family has utilized both conventional braces and Invisalign and each one of us has had such a positive experience. If you are considering orthodontia for your children, this is the place to go. They are terrific! read more

Dr. Kent and his staff are amazing! They made the process of getting my kids in braces go smoothly. They are thorough, up-to-date with the latest technology, kind and passionate about what they do. They made my kids feel not only comfortable about getting brace, but super excited too! They have fun incentive plans for the kids to keep them on track with what they need to be doing to make the duration of braces go more quickly. I would highly recommend this practice to any parents looking for a great orthodontist for their kids (or themselves)! Not to mention their office is a fun and friendly environment to be in! read more

Dr Kent and his staff are fantastic. The atmosphere is fun and energetic and the staff at the front desk always greets you with a smile. I was so impressed with my son's results I decided to put braces on my own teeth. Each chair has a television and dental assistants like Natalie will stay with you the entire time engaging you in conversation and making the time fly by and very pleasant. My recommendation for them as a local family owned Orthodontist company couldn't be higher. Thanks to everyone at Carolina Braces for giving me the opportunity to praise them. Hank M read more

I just had my braces removed and I am so happy to report that I would not have wanted to go anywhere else. Dr. Kent and his staff have been incredibly patient, thorough, caring, perfectionists and always there for me. As an mature person (+60) and never having had braces it was a bit concerning but the entire staff put me at ease. What a wonderful experience and I would highly highly recommend Dr. Kent and his team! Christina did a fabulous job assisting with my visits. Plus the office atmosphere is not like any other. Beautiful friendly environment!! read more

Dr. Kent and his team are awesome. Each visit they were clear on what to expect and made suggestions to ensure my treatment stayed on track. The office is super kid friendly, one week the team dressed up like their favorite Dr. Suess character. It was so much fun. Kent is such a perfectionist, he made sure my teeth were perfect before removing my braces. Natalie is one of my favorites, she's patient, warm, and compassionate; I booked my appointments around when she worked. If you are looking to create a great smile, give the team at Carolina Braces a call read more

A great experience with Dr. Kent's staff. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Leanne and AnnMarie. I had a concern and they took the time to speak with me and together we came up with a solution. Each time I have a question or a scheduling issue, Leanne is always kind and assists me. There is a new person at the front desk and she is a great addition. She greets everyone with a smile and makes each person feel welcome. Dr. Kent is professional and kind with both of my kids. read more

Dr. Kent and his staff are amazing!!! I was very nervous to go back and get braces at such an advanced age; but the staff made me feel comfortable and confident that it would be okay. The atmosphere is fantastic!!! I love the calming effects of the lobby and exam rooms. The fish and jelly fish are wonderful to watch if you are nervous. I also love the financing options that they have that makes it pocket friendly!!! Thanks Dr. Kent and staff at Sawmill Carolina Braces!! :D read more

We recently moved to the Raleigh area from out of state and were in need of an orthodontist to transfer to. My daughter was already in braces at the time and we needed someone who asked the right questions about her treatment and provided us with all the options. Dr. Foley was it. He even returned my call after our initial consultation, after hours. He is knowledgeable and the office staff are pleasant and accommodating. The transferable price was reasonable. Thank you! read more

This practice is great. Dr. Kent and his staff have extended hours to accommodate a school schedule and never keep us waiting. Everyone is so friendly an now that my son's braces are off, we are glad that we chose this orthodontist. Ann Marie, the Office Manager, was always very available to answer questions and Amanda always made my son feel comfortable and helped him understand how he was supposed to where his rubber brands and retainer. Very friendly staff. read more

Great staff, Great place, family friendly, the staff makes you feel welcome , my daughter started first coming for her treatment and they worked with us, so then I decided to go and see if I can do treatment for myself and make sure I keep a great smile, and they took me at my age. I will spread the word and tell family and friends and get people to come in and see the staff. Everyone is Professional, knowledgeable and that makes me very happy. read more

I was a bit skeptical when I took my daughter for her first consultation for braces. When we walked into the office I couldn't have been more impressed. It was bright and modern and you would never know you were in a Orthodontics office. Everyone was so pleasant and they did a great job of explaining Invisalign to us. My daughter got her first trays in January and the results so far are unbelievable in such a short time. Amy mom to Sheridan read more
