Update to original review posted on April 10, 2025 re: complimentary consultation…read more Previously, a review was left expressing concerns about a consultation fee. The office, particularly Dr. Tyska addressed the situation. Consultations are complimentary, and the fee was promptly refunded. Dr. Tyska and his assistant Kristen showed genuine concern and listened to feedback, demonstrating a commitment to patient care. The professionalism and dedication to resolving the issue were impressive. My daughter will soon be getting here braces with Dr. Tyska. This recent experience shows me that patient satisfaction is prioritized and that the office is committed to resolving issues.

So disappointed with this business. Buyer beware when it comes to "complimentary" consultation for…read moreorthodontics. The 2 stars is because we once had a great experience 5 years ago. But recently, I had such an unfortunate interchange with their office manager and staff. I called to book an appointment for my daughter to get a quote on another round of braces (she never wore her retainers and teeth shifted back). The front desk told me there would be a fee for return clients but not for new clients. That didn't make sense to me so I said no thank you. I already received a complimentary consultation elsewhere with a quote. And they did NOT charge me. The front desk told me she would have someone call me back. Sure. I got a call back and told the same thing. Ok. Then I proceeded to cancel my appointment. The office (wish I remembered her name), said she would ask the doctors and call me back (again). Days later I received a call and told there would be no fee. Great. My husband brought my daughter yesterday and sure enough, I am charged $85.00. Called and spoke to the office manager. She handled it very poorly, and kept explaining that they did a lot of "extra's" and that the $85 was actually a great deal. The thing is, I didn't ask for any extra's. I just wanted to know if I would be paying the same price for another round of braces and to see if I could get some kind of discount as a returning patient. This manager made a point to say that there was no record of my previous conservations and therefore, she would not do anything. I have worked for years in private practice - Manhattan - selling elective medical cosmetic procedures. I understand how this works. It is not about the money but about the practice keeping their word and honoring their commitment to the patient. I spoke to them 3x before our actual appointment and they still charged me. I am so disappointed with how they now run their business. Very sad indeed.

My daughter was initially nervous, but the staff was nurturing and patient. Now she goes in on her own without a second thought. They let her pick her band colors and she is always so excited. After each visit, Dr. Forcier personally walks my daughter out to the car to tell me about her progress and next steps. That personal touch is amazing!

When we started this process, my son had two adult teeth that hadn't dropped down because they were completely horizontal. We didn't know if it was even a possibility to have those teeth come down and be in place, but Dr. Koch was able to do it (albeit with the help of an oral surgeon who was able to place a hook on one of the teeth so Dr. Koch could slowly draw it down). For the first time since he was a little boy, my son has a beautiful smile, thanks to Dr. Koch. He and the rest of the wonderful people in the practice have been great from day 1.

My daughter had so many broken brackets within 24 hours of getting her braces on, that within the month she needed to get her braces completely removed and put on again. Since having her braces replaced she has continued to break brackets on food that is approved for braces, such as pretzels and sandwiches. Every time a bracket breaks we have had to wait one week or more to get an appointment. I paid thousands of dollars for subpar braces and care. My other children will be going elsewhere for their braces.
