Rave: Sakowitz Smiles Orthodontics

Returning to the world of braces 30 years later after definitely not wearing my retainer (sorry mom & dad 😂).

My dentist recommended Sakowitz Smiles Orthodontics (Hamlin location) and she was spot on! Absolutely amazing care, professionalism, fair pricing, fast appointments, and super high-tech.

They give you this little mouth scanner device that works with an app where you “capture” little balls on the screen so it can scan your whole mouth (way more entertaining than it sounds 😂). It helps monitor your progress between visits so the orthodontist can make quick adjustments if needed.

Really happy with my treatment so far (braces applied today - easy peasy and no pain!) and highly recommend them! ❤️
Response from the owner:Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We’re thrilled to hear that our team, especially Valeria and Wissal, made your experience exceptional. We're excited to accompany you on your braces journey at Sakowitz Smiles!
