Karlee G.
I have nothing but great things to say about Dr. Speaks and the entire team. He was incredibly patient and thorough with my case. I’ve recommended multiple family members to Speaks for orthodontic treatment because of the trust and respect I have for this team.
Javier G.
I have been straightening my teeth. It’s a very easy process should have done it sooner. Clear aligners are simple
Natasha G.
I love Speaks Orthodontics. I came to them as an adult getting braces for the first time and am very happy with the results! They’re always fast, kind, professional, honest, and effective!
Kinnari W.
Very happy with my experience with Dr. Speaks and his staff! I needed a tooth extracted due to crowding, and after 1.5 years of treatment, my smile looks perfect. You can’t even tell a tooth was removed—there’s no gap at all. I truly appreciate the care, attention to detail, and great results. Highly recommend!
Giles C.
Dr. Speaks and his team provided an excellent experience and consultative approach to aligner treatment — they were transparent all the way through and a pleasure to work with / very knowledgable. The results look amazing, I met with several orthodontists in the area prior to starting treatment and Speaks seemed like they do the best work while also being very experienced to ensure the very best outcome. Five stars!
Response from the owner:Thank you for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear that you had a positive experience with Dr. Speaks and our team. Your satisfaction and amazing results are our top priorities. We appreciate your trust in us!
