Dr. Wax Orthodontics went above and beyond to make sure my daughter had braces when I couldn't afford them as a single mom. 5 stars!

"This is my second time having braces and I'm so glad I chose Dr. Wax the second time around. ALL of the staff care about you, they take their time and make sure your treatment is going great. 10/10 recommend!"

Ashlea S.

Katie at the linden office was SO nice. I’m 10 years old and she was so patient with me. After over a year of visits, we finally found the girl for us! She had a bunch of great ideas and was really great at her job. I recommend her to anyone who doesn’t like as much pain and kids! ❤️
