Great choice for an orthadontist

I was and am thoroughly impressed with every aspect of our experience at Dr Thornton's office. Each of the staff members is kind, thoughtful, polite and respectful of us and our concerns, including time. Not only is everyone doing an above average job, there are many little perks that make each visit exceptional. Above all they made my rather shy and timid son feel comfortable and welcome. I as the parent felt that it was about much more than money to Dr Thornton and his staff.

2.5 years with braces for Devin

We cannot say enough good things about Dr. Thornton's office. He is a phenomenal orthodontist with a kind, attentive, welcoming staff. He always made us feel at home, well taken care of and like a member of the family! He was always very clear and concise about the treatment and my son's new smile speaks for itself. We will recommend Thornton Orthodontics to everyone.

Review on Thornton Ortho.

My experience with Dr. Thornton was beyond perfect. He is a genius at problem solving and offers many options when it comes to treatment. His crew and him are a joy to be around and they are willing to answer any kind of question you ever ask them. They are all great at what they do and I encourage my friends to go to them.

Cheshire Cat Grin

Though, he does not express it well, I know that Matthew is pleased with his new smile. No longer can we sincerely call him "Edward Sisser-Tooth". Since he's a more than affectionate cat lover, maybe we'll call him Cheshire Cat guy. For many years we have known that Matthew needed orthodontic work, but through the help of Dr. Thornton, his kind, gentle and fun staff along with assistance through Advantage Smiles for Kids, he now has a enviable smile. We are impressed with how quick and dramatic the change has been in his smile, truly a testament to the expertise of Dr. Thornton and his wonderful staff.

In great hands

My daughter and I recently met with Dr Thornton and his staff to determine if she needed braces. It was such a positive experience for us! Dr Thornton took great care to examine my daughter's teeth thoroughly and then explain his opinion very clearly to me. Orthodontic treatment can be expensive and we wanted to be sure that we were paying for treatment that was truly necessary. He really put me at ease and answered all of my questions carefully. I left feeling that I really understood her care and that she was going to be in really great hands! I cannot say enough about the office and staff. The atmosphere is clean and friendly. The staff is kind and professional. I met with other orthodontists in the area to determine which provider was the best fit and there isn't a doubt in my mind that this office was head-and-shoulders above the others.
