They are the best. I finished my Invisalign in 2020 and still had my original retainers. However, my dog decided that they would make a good chew toy. Today, I went back in to be refitted... for new ones. It was a great experience. She was fast and efficient. The goo even tasted good, and she told me some jokes. The front dest staff were just as friendly, too. The whole experience was wonderful. Thank you so much, and keep up the great work.read more

If you are on the fence and weighing options for an Orthodontist - I IMPLORE you to please choose Haltom Orthodontics. A bit of a back story; I had come to Dr. Haltom and his team in the... early 2000's and got my braces off with permanent retainers/wires on both my upper and lower smile lines. A couple weeks ago, my lower popped out while flossing (so I thought) and the next morning I realized my one side of my upper was loose. You have to remember, they were glued on 20 YEARS ago, so I definitely think they did their job! My dentist advised me to attempt to return to my original place of work - and this morning was my appointment, and please let me tell you the amount of time and care and understanding that this team exudes has NOT AT ALL waivered and I truly felt like a kid again. Not only that, but Lisa and Yvonne were working there during the time I had braces, and they are still just as beautiful and kind as ever! Lisa told me "dad jokes" the entire time I had that weird putty for molds in my mouth and Yvonne broke down everything she was doing each step of the way to ensure I felt comfortable - both of them I would 100% trust my own children with and let them keep - lol! All jokes aside, I have been telling everyone about my experience today because it genuinely came from care and expertise, which is so hard to find in a field that is very commonly anxiety inducing for some individuals. Long story long - as an over 20 year patient of Haltom Orthodontics, I highly recommend them for anything you may need.read more

I was seeking a mouthguard/retainer after getting an extraction and then finding that nerve damage was going to prevent me from being able to get an implant. I was referred to Haltom... Orthodontics by a friend who said she had gotten the best retainer/mouthguards she’d ever gotten from them. My experience has also been exceptional. My retainer/mouthguard has been amazingly helpful for keeping the pain down in the damaged area. And the staff have been consistently helpful and upbeat, including helping with adjustment to the retainer when needed. I get a sense of a very positive workplace where people like their jobs and like working together, which says a lot and is hard to come by these days.read more

I got my braces off in 2017 and remember my orthodontists visits were phenomenal. From the doctors, assistants, receptionists, and staff, they went above and beyond during my visits. 7... years later, my retainer had come loose and they got me in for an appointment. The staff are still exceptional and i would recommend them for your treatment.read more

My family and I have been going to the same Orthodontist for years. I had to come back a couple years later, recently, because my retainer needed to be fixed and it’s like I never left.... Everyone there is still so nice and the facility is always spotless! PS, Gwen is the best!read more
