From our first consult through my daughter’s entire phase 1 treatment we have had excellent care. Beach Braces is up to date on all the technology making the process for children to do expanders and Invisalign seamless. All of the office staff has been wonderful. Highly recommend for a smooth start to finish process.
I love Beach Braces, I have had great experiences with them at every level. My 4 kids have had no issues and the group is careful and kind with my kids. Jennie has been great with my daughter and I can’t say enough about Patricia Panucci, she is amazing. I highly recommend them.
Being served by this office has been a pleasure for the past 1+ years for my girl's ortho appointments. Dr. Panucci and her team take good care of you and feel approachable with any questions. The work done on my girl's mouth/teeth has been smooth!
