Our Team
Our strong team works together to provide the best orthodontic treatment and have a great time doing it! The most important part of our team is YOU! Your decision to pursue orthodontic treatment is an investment in your future and overall dental health. Your cooperation in your treatment plan is essential for successful results.
Dr. Peavy and his staff regularly report to patients and parents regarding the treatment progress. We encourage you to express your concerns and questions and ask parents to take an active role in their child’s orthodontic program. Some of our staff are bilingual, so please let us know if you prefer a treatment explanation in another language.
Our staff is professionally trained, certified and motivated to serve you. To that end, we participate in continuing education courses, enabling us to stay abreast of the latest developments in the orthodontic industry. Additionally, we utilize the most current sterilization techniques to ensure the safety of our patients. Our primary concern is to provide quality health care.
We look forward to a long and positive relationship – one we are totally confident you will be happy to recommend to your family and friends.
