Amazing team! I brought my 9 year old in for a consultation, and had to have his top front 4 teeth straightened to make room for his new adult teeth, from the consultation to getting them on was about 2 weeks. I also had to have a consultation for a jaw dislocation issue pending surgery, and they were all super careful and kind about it. Extremely fast and friendly office. Definitely recommend.Posted on Google![]()

I took my son to get his braces at this clinic. At first he was scared but later knew that he could trust the people around here and they knew what they were doing. He loves to come here for appointments and loves the staff members. This experience is amazing!Posted on Google![]()

I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Hart and her amazing team, to the point where I felt a little sad when my treatment wrapped up! I came in needing a quick 2–3 weeks of braces to close a gap that formed after my retainer broke, and I was on a tight timeline because I was moving overseas. Dr. Hart and her team were incredibly attentive, professional, and kind throughout the entire process. A special shout out to Reem, who saw me almost every other day and took such great care of me - she was fantastic! I’m very happy with the results, and my friends and family couldn’t believe how quickly the gap closed. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I highly recommend Hart Orthodontics.Posted on Google![]()

I couldn't be happier with my experience at Hart Orthodontics. The staff is very kind and welcoming, the office is clean and modern, and the quality is top-tier. Every visit is smooth, organized, and stress-free. I'm on my last month of my braces treatment and I can confidently say I will be recommending everyone I know to Harts.
