Amazing orthodontist. Dr. Colby Bradford is very kind and gives thorough explanations. They put an expander in my son’s mouth and he let me know it does not hurt him after the 2 week expansion period. He loves the reward program and the ice cream at the end of visits. The office staff is great as well. We are very happy here.
We love orthodontics by Bradford!!!! Best if the best ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Being over 50 I wasn’t thrilled to get started on treatment but it was so worth the time and investment! I’m truly grateful I went with Bradford. They were both incredible.
