I went to a see an Orthodontist on the Upper West side that quoted me $15k for my braces. After meeting with afew more, I remembered this place from the ads that used to be on the train. Not the fanciest of all places but the did the job just as well as any of other places I went to for less than half the price. Also, my teeth were straight in record time when I was compliant. If I hadn't been non compliant they would have been of the second year. I sent my younger cousin and her braces were off fairly quickly. The staff is nice and any of the orthodontists I've encountered were professional and extremely pleasant. I've gone through four.
