What patients say about Embrace Dental and Orthodontics
Patients have left 172 Google reviews for Embrace Dental and Orthodontics, and the average sits at 4.9 stars. The compliments that repeat are about friendly staff and a clean, modern office, and several people bring up how the team treats children too. These are not vague five star notes either, since patients describe real visits and name cleanings and deep cleanings and orthodontics in their comments.
A recurring line is that the numbing worked and nothing hurt, including for self described dental cowards. Parents come up a lot too, usually describing how patient the team was with their children. Taken as a whole, these reviews read like a practice that has earned its rating the slow way.

I love this office. Idk what type of magic powers they have but they make my child feel so comfortable and at ease. They are all very professional. They are very straight forward and very informative. And they move very quick. Not quick in a rush type of way but quick like they know exactly what they are doing and it comes natural to them. I can't explain how great this orthodontist office is.
