I recently completed my Spark aligner treatment with Speaks Orthodontics, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! I started with a severe open bite, and Dr. Speaks and his team were able to significantly improve both my bite and my smile. My original treatment timeline was 18–24 months, and I was able to finish in about 22 months, right within the expected timeframe. Throughout the entire process, Dr. Speaks and his team were incredibly helpful, responsive, and attentive to any questions or concerns I had. I also experienced very little pain or discomfort during treatment, which made the experience that much better. The celebration and gift at the end of treatment were a fun, thoughtful personal touch and a great way to wrap up the experience! If you’re looking for an orthodontist who provides high-quality care, delivers great results, and makes you feel supported throughout the process, I highly recommend Dr. Speaks and his team. They exceeded my expectations, and I’m so glad I chose them for my treatment! Thank you for everything!

Such a wonderful place to get ortho. Dr. Speaks and his team are all amazing. I work for a periodontal practice and Dr.Speaks is highly recommended. I’ve never felt so taken care of in a practice! Chefs kiss :). Ritz it’s also amazing she’s so patient and does a really good job.

I’ve experienced 4 different orthodontists for my kids and Speaks is undeniably the best. Such thorough, smart and detailed care for my son. Can’t recommend him enough!
Jj W.
We come to speaks orthodontics for both of our kids more often than we would like. However, if you have to come someplace this often, this is a great place to visit. The staff is very friendly, they are accommodating with schedule changes and last minute issues. Dr Speaks is very charismatic and friendly!
Maddie C.
Insanely amazing. I had gone to 3 other orthodontists to get checked, and Dr. Speaks was the only one that was completely frank with what needs to be done and what the timeline would be. Other people told me it would take 6 months, which would not have solved my bite problem. Dr. Speaks told me 15 months, and although that is not what you want to hear, it was the truth and the team did a fantastic job. They also use angel aligners instead of invisalign which maintain their clearness throughout the process. I couldn’t be happier and I felt it was well worth the price. THANK YOU SPEAKS TEAM you all are the best!
