    sarah r.

    I have been struggling awhile with whether or not to write about my experience as a patient here. I hate to give a less-than-stellar review to a local business, but I also want to share my experience with other potential patients - especially since orthodontics is such a big investment. It's also something that I think about daily when brushing/flossing/eating, so I decided to write my honest review. I went to Leone and Vaughn based on all the reviews and accolades of the providers, but I have not had the experience I had hoped for. I had Invisalign as an adult (in my 30's) and was open to regular braces if that would be a better option for my situation. I had a minor correction and was told that Invisalign would work for me. Unfortunately, I've been very disappointed with the results. My teeth look straight from the front, but from the side (profile) the upper teeth have just been pushed/tilted backwards. There are spaces between my teeth and the gums all along my front teeth which weren't there before I had treatment. Every time I eat, food gets stuck between several of my front teeth in places that are visible, which is frequently embarrassing. When I'm not eating, I can see black spaces where there weren't any before. I brought this up to the orthodontist when we were close to the end of the treatment and was told I would have to go back to my general dentist and have bonding or veneers done to correct it. This was a huge disappointment since I'd already paid about $5,000 for the Invisalign. My bite is also not 'balanced'. I can make one side or the other touch, but both sides do not touch at the same time. They did try to grind down my natural teeth in the back to get them to touch, but they were never able to get it correct. Also, because of the change in the position of my teeth, and having them pushed back in, my lips are not supported anymore. My lips turn down at the corners instead of going straight across. At first, I could not drink out of cups without spilling because my lips did not meet properly. I have learned how to accommodate so that it doesn't happen anymore, but my lips still have the same downturned appearance in person/photos. The changes in my teeth affected my lower face, too. I have dimples and lines that I didn't have before and there is a lot more movement in my muscles. I have deep 'marionette' lines that have shown up as a result of the loss of vertical dimension in my lower face. (I had a consultation with a nurse injector to see if fillers or botox will help with these issues, and they explained why it happened in the first place.). The change in the proportions of my face is something I did not anticipate and has been something that I have to get used to now. The issues with my bite have caused TMJ problems. It's not everyday, but I'm getting headaches and muscle pain from the position of my teeth. Because my upper teeth were tipped/pushed back, my lower teeth and jaw have to also go back to fit behind the upper ones. It just feels like my jaws don't fit right anymore and there is extra tension in the muscles of my face to try to keep my lower jaw back in the new position. In addition, I found that there wasn't consistency with the care. They had 3 orthodontists and they were running several chairs at once. They would be rushing in and out of the chair and often didn't have time to spend with each patient to give individualized attention. One more thing - I've given it some time to see if any of the issues above would improve after things 'settled in'. It's been several months and I've been faithful with wearing my retainers - I wear them religiously. If anything, the jaw issues, facial esthetics, and especially the black spaces (food traps) are getting worse. Overall, I think this place is probably fine for teens or traditional braces. The orthodontists teach at UW and do tons of cases. They have a lot of experience because of the high volume of cases they see. However, if you're an adult who is more esthetically driven, looking for a place that will take into account your facial esthetics, and give more personalized attention to your treatment, you may want to do more research on finding another provider that will suit your needs. I hope this review is helpful to others of you considering adult orthodontic treatment.

No nickle and diming - the final retainer and everything else were all included in the initially agreed upon price. They did a great job and I'm happy with the results, which included Invisalign treatment for about a year and changing my bite.

Many dental practices plan on people arriving late, so when you arrive on time, you end up waiting for a while - but not here, I was very impressed that they got me in and out quickly for every appointment. How did they exceed my expectations? There is such a positive energy at this practice exuded by all who work there. This results in greater pride the staff takes in their work, getting things done exceptionally well the first time, and ensuring your needs are met along the way.

There are many factors to consider with moving adult teeth, such as maintaining healthy bone and occlusion, that require top notch training and experience. Making sure you have a provider that is licensed as an orthodontist versus a general dentist who just has training in Invisalign is very important in determining successful treatment outcomes. It may be a bit more expensive, but is worth every penny to have it done right the first time. Please don't let a downtown Seattle office stop you from going. It's easy on and off access to I-5 with parking close by in Pacific Place. Plus lots of fun shopping and places to eat close by .

Northcut is top notch, from Drs "Wink & Fink" to sweet Andrea at the front desk, to Alicia in financing, to all of the fabulous assistants. The Bellevue clinic (I'll leave unnamed) was so unprofessional...my kids would complain that once they were whisked to the back each time, "none of the girls know what they are doing and have to ask each other for help." The "girls" referred to a bevy of beautiful young ladies the orthodontist employed...the doctor himself was rarely around. My kids would lose brackets constantly, and that ortho would say that they must've eaten something they shouldn't have (sticky/hard food) even though they'd insist that they had not. Fast forward to Northcut: 20 months of (2nd set) orthodontia for my daughter without a single issue. Not one lost bracket. My older son got his THIRD set of braces (because the first two sets in Bellevue still left him with bite problems) with Northcut, and he is also loving the professionalism. We are so pleased! Thank you so much for a great experience.

His assistant was also incredible, caring, professional, thorough.

My child went to Peralta for 2 years starting when they were 12, within 6 months they had several cavities & after a year & 1/2 (& 4 fillings) requested removal because our kid couldn't/ wouldn't properly brush with their braces on. Peralta resisted & refused to remove them for 6 more months. Now they need 15 more fillings. When I reached out to Peralta to see if he had anything to say in regards to the fact that his "services" have left my child's teeth in worse shape than before, he refused to accept any responsibility for his part in this failure. Our kid was too immature to care for their teeth with braces & as a professional Peralta should have counsel us to wait. His only response was that our child's oral hygiene was fair & therefore he did nothing wrong. Learn from our family's costly mistake- DO NOT GET YOUR CHILD BRACES unless their oral hygiene is perfect and DO NOT GO TO PERALTA.

I mean how hard could it be to type up a proposed treatment plan...? I spent over 7k here so there shouldn't be an issue. By the way, I never received the quote. But I'm not planning on returning to this location. This location really left a bad taste. I remember this business having authentic and kind employees in the past. I guess when Dr. Peralta expanded his business, he lacked in the employment sector.
