Matt Mitchell2025-03-12Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Wonderful experience @ this office from my initial call with Chris, who was so friendly on the phone to my consultation with Dr. Hart. Dr Hart explained everything about my treatment and how placing the “special” brackets higher on my teeth would give me a more youthful smile. I cannot wait to see the results of my orthodontic facelift with these Pitts 21 brackets. Adam Francolini2025-03-12Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
