"Love Dr. Prose and the ENTIRE staff at Prose Orthodontics. We have been loyal customers of Dr. Prose since my journey began when I got braces as an adult. After many consults with other orthodontists, Dr. Prose was the only one who told me that he could save my teeth and my smile with no need for unnecessary extractions. I am beyond thankful for his experience and unwavering expertise. Currently, my 8 year old and 11 year old are under his care and a treatment plan has been established. Pauline and Melanie are so nurturing and committed in making every single moment of our experience memorable. The office feels like a second home to us and we look forward to every visit. 😌 Never think twice about having Dr. Prose and his staff take care of you and your family. ❤️"

"We cannot speak highly enough about the care we received at Prose! Our daughter just finished Phase 1 of braces, and we are thrilled with the results. We felt incredibly informed with every decision made regarding her care, from wire changes to rubber band wearing, and whether or not to opt for an expander or buttons with rubber bands. They celebrates her successes all along the way abs made her feel so proud of her results! Thank you, Prose!"

"I went to Prose today for my initial adult braces evaluation. I had braces once before as a teen, and I have a complicated mouth situation. The amount of imaging they did on my mouth was incredibly comprehensive; they have machines here that I've never seen before! The doctors here are so knowledgeable about how to go about my specific situation in addition to being super nice and friendly. These guys also have a nifty little rewards program for the patients!EDIT: I just got my braces taken off and I couldn't be happier with my entire experience at Prose. Everybody was so kind and gentle with my sensitive teeth and my smile looks great!!!!!"

"Dr. Prose is THE greatest of all time. I’ve been saying it 20 years, and I cannot say it enough! I have such a wonderful experience at his office with his entire team - both now and when I was a middle schooler getting braces. They truly listen to all of your concerns, no matter how minimal, and ensure you leave with the smile you’ve been dreaming of! I’m fact, I grew up wanting to be an orthodontist when I was older, all because of the experience I had at Prose! 😊 Now as an adult, I still visit Dr. Prose when I need new retainers or have questions about my teeth. I only hope that my kids will be patients one day too - Nothing compares to Prose Orthodontics! ❤️"

"I am very happy with how my teeth look now! After putting a few of our children through braces with wonderful results, I took a look at my teeth…they were pretty awful! Very cramped and not pretty. I chose Invisalign because I liked the idea of clear plastic “covers” on my teeth instead of metal braces. I love the results! Dr. Prose and all of his employees are friendly and great at their jobs!"

"My daughter was only 7 years old when she came in for her initial consultation with Dr. Prose. She had been referred to Dr. Prose after her dentist had to extract 4 of her baby teeth. She was extremely nervous during that first visit, but Dr. Prose entered the room with a friendly smile and immediately made her feel comfortable about whole process of getting braces put on. Dr. Prose took the time to explain everything to her and answer any questions she had. The entire staff is very kind and always willing to answer any questions or concerns that have come up over the past 6 months. Every person in the office has been wonderful during each and every appointment, whether we are there for an adjustment or to fix a dreaded broken bracket. The improvement in her smile that we have seen in just the first few months has been incredible. We can't wait to see the end result!"

Thank you for perfect smiles, confidence and overall support through the years!"

"Dr. Prose's office is wonderful! From initial consult, to billing, to (most importantly) patient care, the staff is top notch. My son feels welcome there. The staff does a nice job of educating him on the proper techniques of oral care with braces, without making him feel like he is doing something wrong. On the few occassions brackets have come unattached, they have been very flexible with last mintue appointments. I plan to send my other two children to Dr. Prose in the future."

"I had braces as a child (along with other metal fixings for my teeth) and was not looking forward to my daughter having to go through that as well. Prose was our first and only consultation. We learned that she would have fewer visits and none of the crazy extra metal fixings because of their special memory wires and brackets. We left that day signed up and my daughter got her braces on less than a week later! The staff is very friendly and the visits are super quick. I recommend Prose to anyone that needs braces!"

He transformed my bite with braces.

From the moment I walked in 2 years ago for my first appointment until the day I had my braces removed, I felt the love, care and commitment of Dr Prose and all his staff to make every single patient comfortable and ensure the end results were at least as good as expected by all his patients. I have always been greeted with a smile and walked out of the office with a smile on my face after every single appointment. It was a pleasure to be treated by such a knowledgeable and friendly team. Thank you for giving me a beautiful smile!"
