both of my children and myself have been patient of Dr. Farina. The care has always been outstanding and somehow incredibly he recognizes us every time we go in. Recently, I had an issue where I needed a replacement set of Invisalign. The difficulty was we no longer lived in the United States.This caused problems for various reasons, but Dr. Farina stepped in and got the replacement. You found us read more

Still regret getting my braces done by this place till today he shaved my bottom teeth while my braces were still on because they were all different lengths every visit instead of centering the brackets I can never get it back. Do not come here they will take your money and mess your teeth up read more

So, I had some concerns about my bottom teeth and thought I might need to consider getting invisalign. I am retired and on a limited income but if this was necessary, then I was all in. The office was lovely and everyone was extremely friendly. After taking extensive x-rays of my mouth (which I know couldn't have been cheap), I was taken to a room for a consultation with the treatment coordinator. She explained the treatment in detail. When Dr. Farina came in, he reviewed all the x-rays and said, "Your teeth look great, and, you really don't need any treatment. The movement in your bottom teeth is so minimal and nothing to worry about." I was so happy. If it was necessary, I would have been willing to spend the money, but knowing that my teeth were fine, relieved my mind. In the meantime, two days earlier I went to another Orthodontist who laid out a treatment plan for me at the tune of $5,000+. Needless to say, I will return to Farina Orthodontic Specialists in the future, should the need arise because they are honest. I highly recommend them! read more

After years I did reach out to Dr. frena and I wanted to see if he would finish his treatment and he refused to speak with me. I don't know what I ever did to that man except leave him a bad review and ask him to finish job. I am not going to smile club. Within six months they finished the work that I feel free now did not finish and it only cost me $2300 and now I have a lifetime supply of retainers in case I lose one or I get damaged. I highly recommend smile club because you don't have to come in person and they're not gonna charge you $6400 and not finish the job. Smile club is the way to go don't go to Farina orthodontics!!!!! I gave Farina a chance and he refused it. read more

Lucky that I can't rate 0 or 1/2 a star. They were eager to get my braces off despite the bottom not even close to being done and took WAY longer than they said because little to no progress was being made the last year and a half. I informed them of the obvious, that they weren't aligned and symmetrical on all sides, but they didn't care and just proceeded to remove them anyway. Wished I had went with someone else because I trusted the reviews. Just ridiculous! read more

I complained of discomfort for six months after braces, and when I heard from the dentist that my teeth could not chew food due to malocclusion, I informed Dr. Farina that I was paying for the correction treatment. They said I must pay to fix it. Is it my responsibility? I'm thinking of organizing the rest step by step later and updating the reviews, but now I'm surprised and sad, so I will update later. read more

Dr Farina is a VERY nice guy. HOWEVER, I am receiving Invisalign treatment from them. I am nearly 3 and a half years in (after they told me the plan was for 18 months). They changed my treatment plan 18 weeks ago (I'm on tray 18 so I know this) and it's finally working with my bite, however Now after 3 and a half years, I have to go get a gum graft, simply because they have been moving my teeth around for 3 and a half yeare and no reputable results. NOT ONLY THAT. My last appointment they gave me some periodontist information (out of network) and didny even bother to schedule my next follow up with them. This place went from treating you well at the beginning, to treating you like a number as you spend thousands of extra dolllars behind the scenes with other dental providers due to malpractice. read more

Dr. Farina and his team are the best! From the moment I stepped into the office for a consult and checked in to actually starting my treatment I've felt like a VIP. The experience and confidence Dr. Farina has in fixing and creating a perfect smile is incomparable to any other orthodontist I've met. I personally am doing Invisalign to correct my smile but the team walked me through all the options and steps. I get excited for every visit I have at this office. It is doing a disservice to yourself to not be consulted and treated with this team. read more

Farina Orthodontic Specialists - South Tampa - Orthodontists Near Me - Tampa, Florida

Just a bad feeling about this guy all the way around. Going to him is like a one way street where the patient makes all of the sacrifices (time, money) and he benefits (financially). He has horrible follow up skills & makes promises that he doesn't keep. There is a lot of blame shifting and a big lack of accountability if your case doesn't go correctly. There seems to be very little interest in making the client feel comfortable, pain free etc. If anything feels painful or doesn't fit properly, that is your fault and he's too busy to correct it because he's too worried about overseeing his staff members bring in new cases. Arrogant and will talk about you to his staff while you are there to witness it. I could go into more detail but I think I've made my point. Way too many good orthodontists in S Tampa to deal with this guys nonsense and lack of professionalism. He's too big for his britches so to speak. His office has people and kids crammed in like sardines and his main goal is to shuffle as many people through in as little time as possible. Go elsewhere if you want someone to give you quality attention and results. read more

Dr. Farina and staff are the epitome of greatness. They have always taken such great care of our families needs. He helped my girls with their braces and myself with my TMJ. He is amazing , caring and i have never had a bad experience with him. I used to be the nurse for his kids when his children were little at our pediatric office. His wife is even kinder, which says a lot amount him. My daughter did a short internship with him and she loved every moment she spent in that office. She said he was always smiling and happy. He loves his patients. I truly see this every time i see him. I am great full to him for all he has done for our family. Now my daughter is applying to dental schools. So I am sure our families will meet again soon!!!! Thank you Dr. Farina and his wonderful staff. read more

I've been seeing Dr Farina, Dr Wagner and the wonderful staff at Farina Orthodontics since September 2015 and every single visit has been an extremely pleasant experience! They take the time to fully explain each step of my treatment and my teeth already look amazing even though it's only been 7 months! Their new South Tampa office is absolutely stunning and I've never had an issue with having to wait very long when showing up for my appointments. I would highly recommend Farina Orthodontics to anyone, regardless of age, that's considering orthodontic treatment. These guys are the Rock Stars when it comes to making your smile beautiful and you will not be disappointed!! read more

Dr. Farina made a very complicated situation seem so easy and so affordable! Almost $10,000 less than our last estimate. Everyone was accommodating and easy to talk to, and the energy and atmosphere of the office was crisp and positive. read more

My son has been a patient of Dr. Farina for one year. Dr. Farina's office feels like family. My son and I always feel welcome and are always treated with kindness, sincerity and respect. Today's visit ended up being longer than scheduled but everyone was extremely accommodating. Dr. Farina and Dr. Rudy went out of their way to make sure that my son's oral and orthodontic health were taken care of to the best of their abilities! It is a blessing to count Dr. Farina and Dr. Rudy as my son's orthodontists! read more

Started with Invisalign braces in July 2017. As an adult in my 40's who had traditional braces in my teens, this was the best experience from start to finish (10.5 months). The South Tampa office is phenomenal. From Drs. Farina and Rudy to the staff, I could not have asked for any better service. Highly recommend for both kids and adults! read more

I was 12 when I started my FIRST complicated, orthodontic treatment due to crowding & an overbite. After 2 years of wearing the traditional, unsightly, uncomfortable, orthodontic wires & brackets & a night time head gear, the results were impressive for awhile. However, my teeth began to shift & were no longer straight. After 50+ years, I decided to have my very complex orthodontic issues addressed AGAIN. This time, the evolution of orthodontics enabled me to opt for an Invisalign® treatment, which utilized custom aligners. Over the course of a year, my teeth gently & gradually shifted into proper place. My teeth-straightening process ended w/high tech x-rays that encircled my head & took cutting edge pictures of my teeth & mouth. To preserve the exceptional results of my once again straight teeth, retention treatment consists of a removable upper retainer & a discreet, fixed lower retainer. I am very grateful for the evolution of orthodontics for many reasons! One, I removed the clear trays when I wanted. Two, there were NO food restrictions. I ate whatever foods I enjoyed. Three, I enjoyed virtually invisible teeth-straightening. Only one person noticed that I was wearing discrete trays. Four, I brushed & flossed my teeth normally & maintained healthy periodontal tissue. Five, the evolution of orthodontics allowed for state-of-the-art treatment while traveling. When I advised the office I was traveling, they provided me w/extra trays... I traveled 17K miles through 15 states over the course of 5 months. Finally, my smile w/STRAIGHT, ALIGNED teeth increased my face value, my + self-image, & my confidence. I once again have that 'million dollar' smile. In summary, I am very pleased & wholeheartedly want to express my appreciation.... THANK YOU Dr. Farina & kudos to your office staff. I can honestly say w/conviction, my advanced orthodontic treatment was much more enjoyable than the previous rudimentary regimen! read more

Farina orthodontics is the best orthodontist around. They are always accommodating and friendly.
