I am just finishing up my Invisalign journey and would recommend them 100 times over. I was extremely nervous to start this at the age of 35 and have no regrets at all. They have the BEST... customer service of any place I’ve done business. The staff is second to none! Pam knew my name after seeing me one time, Dr. Rob answered my list of questions with so much patience, Noreen was always so helpful in my scan monitoring. The rest of the staff is top notch as well. When you walk in, you can tell it has a great atmosphere. My husband is just finishing his braces/Invisalign journey as well and when our children are old enough and need orthodontic work, we will definitely be back. Extremely knowledgeable and our smiles look better than my wildest dreams! So thankful to have chosen them. We live 60 miles from the office and they are worth the drive!read more

I am extremely grateful for the whole VanLaecken Orthodontics Team and everything they have done for me to achieve a healthy, confident and beautiful smile!! Throughout all of my visits, I... was welcomed by friendly faces and a whole team that provided outstanding customer service! The team always took the time to hear out any concerns I had with my smile and answered all of my questions. They provided wonderful knowledge and explained everything in great detail, which made me feel confident in every step of the process. Not only did they make me feel well taken care of but they also extended a helpful hand on a day that I had my toddler with me at the appointment. They brought her colors/coloring book, made a balloon for her out of a medical glove and put Paws Patrol on the TV to keep her occupied while they examined my teeth. It was above and beyond customer service and as a mother, I truly appreciated the kindness they showed my daughter. THANK YOU to the whole VanLaecken Orthodontics Team! My Invisalign journey with you has been a lovely experience!! I will happily recommend VanLaecken Orthodontics to all of my family and friends! 😊read more

Jackie J.

We have had an amazing experience so far! They are very courteous and efficient! Everyone that works there is super kind and very professional and compassionate! We hardly ever have to... wait, usually less than 5 minutes. They are wonderful during the consultation, they lay everything out there so there are no hidden costs, and have a variety of payment plans. They let you know the expected time for treatment and everything that needs to be done. They involve my daughter with decisions she can make (rubber band choices, etc.) and they explain everything they are going to do before they do it. I will definitely be taking my next child here as he will need braces as well. I wouldn’t even consider going anywhere else! The smile rewards is a nice benefit as well.read more
