About
Why Woolaver Orthodontics?
Orthodontics is a Specialty
General dentists often offer braces or Invisalign. Dr. Woolaver completed a 3-year residency after dental school and has transformed over 10,000 smiles. With his expertise, your results will speak for themselves!
Corporate Dentistry/Orthodontics
Offices that do general dentistry and have an orthodontist on staff, or multiple locations are in our neighborhood. The orthodontist bounces from office to office around the valley. Availability for appointments and emergencies is limited because they do not have an orthodontist in the office every day.
Cost
When comparing price, be careful in choosing the cheapest. Many offices offer low prices up front, but hit you with many fees later in treatment which can make the total cost for treatment much higher. Broken bracket fees, missed appointment fees, cancellation fees, etc can dramatically increase the total cost of treatment. BEWARE of any office that charges additional monthly fees after a certain point. For example, many offices can start charging extra if treatment extends beyond 24 months. This actually creates an incentive for the office to keep your braces on longer so that the office can charge more. Also, lower-cost offices typically use lower-cost materials. Braces can be purchased from third-world manufacturers for a fraction of the cost of American-made braces. But, all braces are NOT created equal. Using a cheaper brace often leads to months or years longer in braces and 10 or 15 additional visits during treatment. Would you pay a few hundred dollars extra to be done with your braces sooner and to have many less trips into the office for adjustments? Consider this before selecting your orthodontist. Shopping for the cheapest orthodontic treatment in town may come with a significant cost; in dollars, your time, and comfort.
Dr. Woolaver has provided orthodontic treatment for both of my son’s, Andrew and Bradley. We are very pleased with the results of the treatment. Their smiles look great. Dr. Woolaver and his staff are very professional and went out of their way to make the boys feel comfortable. As a pediatric dentist, I am very confident with Dr. Woolaver’s treatment recommendations and with his treatment results. I highly recommend Dr. Woolaver and will continue to refer patients and friends to their office.

DDS, Valley Pediatric Dentists
Being a dentist and being in my 40’s, you can imagine how particular I was in choosing the right Orthodontist to treat me and my TMJ disorder. I needed to align my teeth to resolve years of severe migraines. Dr. Woolaver achieved my goal with precision and sincerity. His staff was courteous and professional. The high level of care and consideration continues even months after the braces came off, and during follow up appointments. I am so happy I chose correctly being under the care of Dr. Woolaver and his team.
