What patients say about Akavan Orthodontics & Children's Dentistry

Akavan Orthodontics & Children's Dentistry holds a 5 star average across 383 public Google reviews, and the pattern inside those reviews is fairly consistent. Read through the reviews and the same things surface: friendly staff, how the team treats children, and in many of them a clean, modern office. These are not vague five star notes either, since patients describe real visits and name Invisalign and orthodontics in their comments.

Comments mention modern equipment as well, including digital imaging. Several reviews come from families who bring more than one generation to the same chair. Taken as a whole, these reviews read like a practice that has earned its rating the slow way.

This place is the best. I originally took my daughter here for a consultation and signed her up first day. It was impressive how efficient and friendly the staff is. I was so impressed I opted to become a patient myself. I would highly recommend Akavan Orthodontist to anyone who wants state of the art orthodontic treatment.

I chose to finally do something about my crooked teeth and went to see Dr. Akavan. I was 70 years old at the time and she suggested Invisalign. I have been wearing the Invisalign braces for about 14 months now and my teeth are straight and beautiful. Thank you very much Dr. Akavan. You have made my smile beautiful again!

Very satisfied with the doctor's professionalism and experience to notice things other Orthodontists in the area missed. Ortho Assistants are really welcoming and professional. My 2 kids were treated there. We are satisfied with the final results. The price was reasonable for the time we started the treatment plan.
