They offer both invisalign and braces, but I chose invisalign and I absolutely have no regret! The staff is so considerate and patient, and I have had no problems—and if I had any, setting up an appointment is so easy with a touch of a button in their app. I can see all my progress in the app while they remind me to stay on track. Their program is great and i’m only about a quarter way done with my treatment and I already see a great improvement. The doctor is also great, she always checks in during your appointments to make sure you understand what is going on at all times. This place is amazing, and I’d recommend anyone to choose Wheaton Orthodontic Center anytime."

"Great experience! Went the day before Thanksgiving for my son’s first appointment. They explained the whole process and made my son feel much less anxious about getting his braces. They were able to put them on the same day but we waited until Monday. They did a great job. I’ve never seen my son more comfortable at a dentist/orthodontist office. Highly recommend Wheaton Orthodontist!!"
"We couldn't be happier with our experience at Wheaton Orthodontic Center! My son Kai just finished his braces treatment, and his smile looks absolutely amazing. Dr. Laurie and her entire team-from the front desk (Karen and Amy) to the clinical staff (Jessie, Sarai, Lynette, and Diana)-are top-notch. Every visit was filled with kindness, care, and excellence. The process was smooth from start to finish, and we always felt welcomed and well-informed. It's rare to find a team that combines top-notch professionalism with such genuine warmth.Thank you Dr.Laurie and everyone at WOC, for making this journey such a positive and memorable one. Highly recommend to anyone looking for exceptional orthodontic care!"
"I recently got my braces a few days ago, and I had the pleasure of being assisted by Dianna, the dental tech. She was absolutely wonderful—so kind, patient, and genuinely caring. She took her time to explain every step of the process, made sure I was comfortable, and answered all my questions without rushing me. It really helped ease my nerves and made the whole experience so much better. You can tell she truly cares about her patients and takes pride in what she does. Thank you, Dianna, for making my orthodontic visit such a positive experience!"

"First time here and I can honestly say I will continue my smile journey with this office. My first appointment and I felt extremely welcome. Everyone is very personable which made the process smooth. I opted for metal braces after having x rays and going over my treatment and I had them done the same day; unfortunately, it seemed as if I had an allergic reaction to the metal and within an hour I was back in the office and they removed them no questions asked. I opted for invisilign instead. All the staff members were empathetic to my situation even was given a hug😂😩. On the way out I was given some goodies to go( tooth brush kit, t shirt , face mask ,etc) .I have been researching offices for the last few months for braces and I can honestly say I’m happy with choice I made . Super friendly and affordable. Thank you so much!!!"
"Dr. Allen and his team are absolutely the best around! My oldest had braces and my youngest is in Invisalign now. Both experiences have been wonderful and we are so happy with the results. The little extras in the office make it so inviting and the rewards program and special events are so fun for the kids! I had problems with my insurance coverage and Dr. Allen’s team worked to get it resolved immediately. Each staff member is so friendly and helpful. I would 100% recommend Smile Doctors, and I do anytime I can. Thank you for making us smile every time we visit!"
"Went to different orthodontists in the area and found Wheaton Orthodontic Center to be the most cost effective and that’s the main reason we chose them. They were very accommodating and had different payment plan options that best fit our needs. Sara was very responsive to text messages. Added bonus: Their office had a welcoming and fun atmosphere, a nice backdrop for pictures, a well stocked snack/coffee area, and game room. The staff was friendly and made my kids feel relaxed about getting braces. They even offered either a Waterpik flosser or Philips Sonicare electric toothbrush FREE for new patients and a gift bag filled with a goodies for a new-braces-wearer:)"
"The staff there are so nice! I’m almost done with my treatment, and they asked me if I was happy with the process, which I am. I’m excited to take my braces off! They want to make sure you are comfortable before finishing your treatment. I love them, and I’ll definitely go there again and recommend this orthodontist to my family and friends."
"My boys have gotten their braces here. Friendly and professional staff. Great job!"
"It’s been a year and a half and I got my braces off. Woo hoo. Staff is awesome and doctor is nice."

"I am so happy with my results! I had Invisalign for one year. The staff is so friendly and knowledgeable! My son had traditional wire braces from here as well and he had a great experience as well! I definitely recommend this orthodontist office. Lynette is awesome! Dr. Laurie is amazing!"
"Thank you Diana, you are the best.Got my braces off today. I am very happy with my results. Would recommend this place."
"I’ve been taking my son here since he was 5 years old to monitor his bite progression as he was growing. We started the braces journey as soon as his front two adult teeth came in. The staff is amazing! They’ve maximized on his growth spurs. The results are amazing. Dr. Laurie is the sweetest and everyone just knows what they’re doing. Great team."
"It is amazing and Diana has been very nice and helpful with my braces and giving me ways to fix my inflamed gums"

"Smiles Doctors staff in Wheaton is friendly and professional. The office is clean and inviting. Both my kids got their braces at Smiles. My son usually did a closed mouth smile but after he got his braces off not anymore!"

"I’ve gone to Wheaton Ortho for a couple years and the results are perfect. The staff are amazing and kind. There is never a long wait for appointments. The place is very clean. The staff seem very happy and like to do their job. I’d definitely get my braces done here again, and I recommend you do too. I was supposed to get my braces off (as a 25yo adult now) in 3yrs but in their care I got them off in just a month over 2yrs."
"Had a wonderful experience today!My daughter got her first set of braces and they made her feel so comfortable.It went very smooth and easy. They were all very informative professional and the office was very clean. The staff was just great!Highly recommend this place!!!"
"Always a pleasant visit. Dr. Allen and his staff are very nice and helpful. They explain what needs to be done clearly. I went to him as an adult for my braces and 12 years later my daughter got her braces. Next up is my son. You can't go wrong with Dr. Allen."
"Dr Laurie was great! She listened to all my concerns and really worked to get me the smile I wanted! Tessa and Vanessa were so amazing and made the process so easy on my last day with aligners 😊"
"Absolutely thrilled with the outstanding service and results from Dr. Allen, Dr. Laurie, & the team. From the initial consultation to the day my braces came off, every step was handled with precision and care. My smile has been completely transformed, and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. The staff is friendly, professional, knowledgeable, and always went above and beyond to ensure my goal is met. Five stars for their exceptional expertise and dedication to creating beautiful smiles! 100% recommending!"
"This place is absolutely amazing. After 3 1/2 years of braces, and treatment, Dr. Allen, Dr. Laurie, and all the staff that I encountered has been nothing but nice and sweet to me and made my smile beautiful. I am so happy with my results and would not recommend any other orthodontic place. They always made me feel comfortable throughout any treatment, and always had a smiling face when I walked inside. Truly, an amazing experience!"
"I just got my braces off and I am so happy with the service I got from Dr. Alan and his office workers. I love how my teeth look after my treatment. Thank you so much!!!!"
"I am writing this review several years out of treatment (when this practice was previously known as Wheaton Orthodontics) and can attest that Dr. Allen did a beautiful job!I had no idea how severe my crowding and overbite were before I came in for my consultation as an adult in 2017. He put together a treatment plan immediately and started my treatment the following day knowing I had to leave to work out of state within a couple days. He explained every step to me and was so kind and understanding - the staff is exceptional, too. Scheduling is flexible and everything about timing, expenses, etc is transparent.I ended up also requiring double jaw surgery in 2018 to fully correct my bite and Dr. Allen was able to communicate with my oral surgeon out of state (Dr. Heath Evans in Oklahoma). I was finished with my braces in spring of 2019 and have maintained my correction with nightly invisible liners since. When I needed replacements, I was easily able to set up an appointment and pick up new retainers within the same week.I am now 4 years out of finishing my braces and I am so, so happy with my results (and so is my dentist). I was so self conscious and hated having my picture taken or even laughing or smiling without covering my mouth before having my bite and crowding corrected. Now I‘m happy to smile and laugh both in front of a camera and in everyday life.Thank you for everything, Dr. Allen and crew!"
"This was my first time going to Dr. Allen and I am so happy with how my teeth turned out. They weren’t that bad to begin with because I did have braces when I was younger I just stopped wearing the retainers I was given and my top teeth shifted a bit. But I am soooo much happier with Dr. Allen’s results. I was mostly self conscious about my two front teeth because they looked like bunny teeth but Dr. Allen filed down parts of my teeth that made them look big and now they’re aligned with the rest of my teeth! I had also finished my treatment but I still felt like there was one tooth that was slightly behind the rest of them, like the smallest amount that I felt like I was exaggerating but I knew it was something I would have to live with so I told him anyways. He started a new treatment right away and told me he saw what I was talking about and validated my concerns! Dr. Allen really just wants you to be comfortable and happy with your smile, I will be recommending this location to friends and family!"
"A super special day to celebrate! I am braces free!🥳😄Thank to Dr Allen and all his beautiful team for making my dream come true and for making my smile beautiful. I am so pleased with the results and the impeccable job they did with me.😁 I highly recommend Smile Doctors Orthodontics-Wheaton. Again, thank you so much Dr. Allen you are awesome! I'll be missing all your wonderful and sweet girls who worked with me so professionally too!"

"I’ve had two kids through braces with Dr. Allen and his staff and they were great with both kids. Their smiles look great and the process went smoothly for everyone!"
"This place is phenomenal from the time I transferred from Michigan( Smiles Doctors office) to Wheaton Illinois the staff was on point. The hospitality was very exceptional.. I received a first time patient gift, a bottle of white wine, as well as a tour throughout the facility where my daughter sat and played in their video gaming room while I had my braces removed. They were very polite and even celebrated pajama day which was awesome! Beth was hilarious and kept me laughing throughout the process of being anxious And ready for my new smile. This is definitely where you wanna go if your looking for a " Legit orthodontist""
"Staff was so friendly the moment I walked in. Very comfortable environment. Beth was an immense help to me in the process of getting evaluated for teeth correction. Im suggesting this place to everyone who wants a smooth affordable, process to getting braces."
"Love the office and Dr. Allen is great with kids. Second child getting braces now and it’s been a great experience. Highly recommend!"
"Second child just finished braces with Dr. Allen. We chose to come from Geneva based off a recommendation. Professional and very happy with the results."
"Kind service, pay great attention do detail and you’re guaranteed to leave happy. 2 years of braces and not a single complaint. Thanks Diana!"
"just got my braces today after 3 years and i am so happy with the results! i’ve always enjoyed coming to the orthodontist and everyone is super friendly and positive. Lynette was my tech almost every time and she always was so kind and did everything to make me comfortable. Thank you so much!"
"Dr. Allen is the BEST!!! Highly highly recommend. I got my braces at an older age and he made it so easy and smooth for me. He knew I was in a rush to get the braces off and did everything possible to make my teeth move faster. The staff is also amazing, every time you go in they brighten your day from the front desk all the way to the back. Got talk to him and you won’t regret it!"
"I went to Grove Dental in Wheaton and got a quote for braces for my son and didn’t feel comfortable with their treatment plan and their professionalism. I got a second opinion with Dr. Allen and the treatment plan was much more straight forward! I ALSO was a patient of Dr. Allen’s when I was younger and my teeth are still perfect and haven’t shifted at all!"
"The staff here are amazing and very helpful. I definitely recommend it to anyone looking for Invisalign or braces!"
"I have had two kids go through braces here. For a second phase and for younger children, I considered switching to a different orthodontist who was closer after we moved half an hour away. My older kids wouldn't hear of it! So I'm happy to be stuck with Dr. Allen for many more years to come!"
"Dr. Allen's office is extremely welcoming. From the time I walked int he door until I walked out the door everyone was so friendly. In the first 5 minutes they give you a tour of their beautiful office and introduce you to everyone. I was there to get invisalign braces. They thoroughly went over the treatment and the cost. They have many option plans for the cost of the treatment. I'm excited for my new look in 15 months."
"Dr Allen and his staff are amazing. I still have my braces on but thanks to them I don’t hide my smile anymore. My teeth were pretty bad but Dr Allen came up with a plan and worked with other doctors to make the process quick and cause me as little pain or discomfort as possible. I highly recommend going to him because he’ll make your experience great."
"I loved my experience!! This is the place to go if you want a beautiful smile. Dr. Allen and the rest of the staff are very friendly and it feels like family. My braces experience was very effective and with little pain. I am very satisfied and happy with my smile!! Thank you so much!"
"My son recently finished phase 1 of braces and the whole process was great. His mouth was a mess and I am so pleased with his smile right now. Highly recommend Dr Allen and his team!"
"I went to Dr. Allen with Smile Doctors as my son went to him for his braces a few years earlier. I was not sure that I wanted braces again, however I did want my teeth to be straight. I made an appointment and when they suggested Invisalign, I went that route. I am so happy that I did as my teeth are straight and the gap in the front is now gone. This was definitely the way to go and I am super happy with the results."
"Thank you to all the friendly and helpful staff at smile Doctors! I went yesterday for an evaluation and staff could not have been kinder or more helpful.I was given accurate information and left without pressure to make a decision about using Invisalign braces.Thank you Dr. Alan for providing such excellent people around you and for providing an environment that is positive , supportive , and effective.Kind regards,Lynda Stone"
"We have 4 children. Our oldest 3 are in their early 20s and had a wonderful experience with Dr. Allen. I wouldn't consider another orthodontist for our youngest who is just now needing braces. We were thrilled to learn that Dr. Allen is still on Willow Road in Wheaton...the name has changed to Smile Doctors, but Dr. Allen is still there and uses the Damon Braces product which has proven results. The time from start to finish was exactly as projected for each of our children and the entire staff from Beth to each technician and assistant is kind and professional. We wouldn't go anywhere else!"
"Dr. Allen and his staff are always so kind and helpful. My experience with braces and retainers was easy, effective, and pain free. Very much so recommend."
"Dr. Allen did my first phase of braces before he was a smile doctor. He was great then and is STILL great now. He treats his patients like family. Even under the stress of COVID he keeps his office clean, safe, and his patients happy. Smile Doctors is SO convenient as a college student who is out of state and has to switch back and forth between school and home orthodontists. (Side note: Doctor Scott, a Colorado smile doctor, is also AMAZING!!) The whole transfer process (when switching from predominantly one smile doctor to another) is handled by them which was a little tedious/took a little more time than anticipated but we're in the middle of a pandemic, that's life right now. Even then everyone was SO kind, always able to answer questions, and help me in a prompt manner. I have worked with many doctors, dentists, orthodontists, etc because I have a lot of skeletal issues and many teeth problems and Dr. Allen is definitely one of my favorite people to go see! He is quick and efficient when you're in the office. They have good price deals and they're good with payment plans. Will definitely be recommending smile doctors to anyone and everyone that asks me for an orthodontic recommendation!"
"My daughter Leann had her braces put on a week ago! Dr. Allan, Beth , Garrett and the whole staff are very friendly and welcoming. Leann was nervous but after meeting them she felt at ease. Can’t wait to see her new and perfect smile. I’m very glad we chose Dr. Allan!!"
"My braces were on for 2 years and when I got them off my bite had sufficiently gotten better. Diane and Chloe were very friendly and made sure to ask how you’ve been. They made my experience with braces less dreadful and made my visits more comfortable. They also did a great job with removal and made sure I was comfortable during the process."
"Today my son has his braces removed after over a year of wearing them. His was an early intervention because his front teeth were jutting so far out. Dr. Allen and his wonderful staff did a beautiful job with his teeth. They look absolutely perfect. We are so pleased. And the staff all took such good care of us EVERY time we stepped into that office over the course of the last year plus. Thanks to Diana and Chloe for making his braces-removal day go so smoothly. Highly recommended orthodontist. You won’t regret it!"
"I got my braces a few decades after most of Dr. Allen's teenage patients get theirs, but I'm glad I did. He and his team do terrific work and were great to work with. I could not be happier with the result and the experience."
"I just got my braces off and Jill was very kind and amazing, I highly recommend coming here. They have a very clean and neatly organized work area and whenever Dr. Allen would talk to me it would always brighten my day, he is always very positive and you can always have a good conversation with him."
"Stephanie took my braces off today!"
"Dr. David Allen is wonderful!! He did my braces a few years ago and just did my daughters as well. He's phenomenal! The staff is so kind, so patient, and fun too. They made the "dreaded braces" actually a lot of fun and such a great experience not only for my daughter but also for me as the parent. Plus they've been so accommodating during the entire pandemic. Dr. Allen really knows his stuff. He is up to date on all of the best techniques and practices and also makes sure to avoid any invasive or cost damaging procedures. He's genuine and will help with any questions. I cant say enough great things about him and his team!"

"The environment was very pleasant from the doctor down to the staff members, everyone was very friendly. Reasonable procedures and very affordable plans. I got braces put on the same day as my FREE consultation. Happy would be an understatement describing my experience."
"As soon as you walk in the door, you can tell you were in for a pleasant experience. Lisa, the receptionist was very friendly & gave me a lovely tour of the facility. Garett took my photos & was pleasant with any accommodations. Jennifer was the coordinator & helped discuss any plans, & addresses all concerns. Dr Allen was also very pleasant. He made me feel very welcome & ensured that he wanted to help & hopes that I picked them for my braces. (I most certainly did!) they worked with my budget & was able to start that same day! Don’t hesitate to enjoy your smile as soon as possible. I wished I had meet the smile doctors sooner!"
"Great place to get your braces. Im happy with what they did to my teeth. Greta place. Recommend it if your looking to get braces. Thank you"
"Everyone there was super nice. My teeth look amazing And they got my braces off me 3 month early!"
"I am one of Dr. Allen's senior citizen patients. My teeth unexpectedly began to move about 6 years ago, so I got braces on my bottom front teeth and then retainers on upper and lower teeth. I returned recently to get a new retainer and was glad to have an excuse to visit this upbeat, welcoming place again. Besides being efficient and very competent, Dr. Allen and his entire staff are the friendliest medical team I have encountered anywhere!"
"We had a great experience with Dr. Allen and the team. Our daughter's time with braces was well managed, friendly, and efficient. One of our sons just started with braces as well and so far the experience is top notch. Recommend 100%"
"Just got my braces off today! This office is great. Dr. Allen has a good sense of humor and explains everything to you. The assistants are very good as well. The employees at the front desk really make you feel welcome every time you walk in the door. The two years I spent in treatment went very fast. I never dreaded my appointments. Thank you Dr. Allen and the whole staff. I love my new smile!"
"I can not say enough amazing things about Dr Allen and his staff! They are simply incredible!! Friendly, funny, sweet, caring...every appt my son would look forward to going. My son got braces last year to widen and make room for his new teeth..he was 8. Not only are his teeth straight but his speech improved dramatically! His speech therapist was shocked at the difference as were we. Thank you so much Dr Allen and your awesome staff!!"
"Dr. Allen and his team were wonderful with both of my daughters during their phase one braces. They were incredibly patient and kind with my daughter that had extreme anxiety at every appointment. They made her feel comfortable and took extra care when treating her. She now wants to go back just to visit!"
"We cannot say enough good things about Dr. Allen’s office. The entire staff is friendly, professional, and so helpful. Treatment is effective and the results are amazing! A comfortable environment for the patient and Dr. Allen’s use of technology make getting braces an enjoyable experience. Unlike when I was a kid. Our whole family highly recommends Dr. Allen."
"I have 2 children with braces and I consulted 3 dental practitioners before selecting Wheaton Orthodontic Center. I chose Dr. David Allen based on customer service, their before and after results and their guarentee offer. When I scheduled my consultation it was after hours but someone contacted me within 30 minutes. I was impressed. When we arrived Cheryl helped me review my cost, our insurance plan, etc and she gave us top notch service. We met with Dr. Allen and he is very personable and explained in detail the best option for my kids. My kids immediately said they want to go with Dr. Allen and thus we did.The office is very personable. Since we signed on, my kids received hand written notes of encouragement, we have been invited to customer appreciation events, the kids are encouraged to take good dental care and earn points for gift cards, etc. The office shows true appreciation for their customers and the little things they do go along way. Couldn't be happier and my kids teeth are improving. Love it."
"Very easy and painless process. Staff was always great - friendly, caring, and just overall the best. I definitely would recommend Dr. Allen and his team to anyone needing braces - children or adult!"
"Dr. Allen is great! I haven't had his braces in over 10 years but had to come back and write a review because my teeth are still perfect! With his knowledge he advised me to put a permanent bottom retainer in (you can't even see) and I am so glad I did because my teeth haven't moved and a lot of my friends (now in their mid 20's) have crocked bottom teeth and having to get braces or invisaline again, which isn't cheap! Thanks for my pearly whites, hope you are not retiring anytime soon because I highly recommend!"
"The place is awesome. It has a game section that can entertain kids while they wait for their appointment. The staff are extremely friendly and the doctor, Dr. Allen is super nice. Cheryl, the financing staff, is a big helper when it comes to payment. She handles it very, very well. Loved the conditions of the place, and the braces were easily done in an hour or 2 for my kids. I highly recommend this place if your looking for an orthodonist/office for dental procedures. I loved the place and thanks Dr. Allen and all the staff that help him and others everyday!"
"Learning that I had to get braces at 21 was not ideal. However, neither was the painful underbite I had. Dr. Allen and his team accommodated with my wants, needs, and school schedule beautifully; turning a 2.5 year process of braces, jaw surgery, and more braces into 9 months. I could not be happier with everyone there and the results of my new smile!"
"Dr. Allen’s office is the best place. Whenever you walk in there there’s music playing, and everyone is so friendly. I got my braces off today and they sang a song, and I got a bucket full of treats and a balloon. They’re so supportive, and if you’re debating what orthodontist to go to, I would deffinatly reccomend Dr. Allen’s office. If you have little kids or siblings, or you’re bored in the office you can go to the little game room section and play games. They also recently re-modeled the office and it truly looks amazing. Thank you Dr. Allen, and staff."
"Dr. Allen and his staff are professional, up-to-date with the latest and most effective techniques in orthodontia, and make the process much more palatable for my kids. I have one child who has been anxious about getting braces and Dr. Allen's staff could not have been kinder, more informative, and more helpful with her. I'm so grateful a friend referred us to this practice when I needed braces after a jaw surgery. The best!"
"The Wheaton Orthodontic Center is a great place to get braces! Dr. Allen and all the staff are professional, welcoming, and answer any questions you have about each step along the way to a healthier and more beautiful smile! People of all ages are encouraged to ask about braces and find out how various methods to straighten teeth are right for them. Just contact the Center and you'll be happy you did!"
"All three of our kids have gone to Dr. Allen and their staff. Two of them are done with braces and they love their teeth and so do we. They make having braces easy and the end result is incredible. The staff is friendly, accommodating and professional. We highly recommend their services!!"
"We love coming here. Dr. Allen and staff are the best. We put off getting our daughters braces because she had such a fear and anxiety of dentists in general, but Dr. Allen and staff put her completely at ease and they explain every step in detail. I am so pleased I would reccomend them to everyone. My daughter looks forward to going to her appointment now and that's a miracle. Thank you so much Dr.Allen and wonderful staff !"
"I have been going to Dr. Allen for many years. At first I was scared to get braces but when I walked into Dr. Allen's building I knew I was going to be treated well. And I was correct. His staff is very caring and nice. I had George and Beth today they were so nice to me.I highly recommend Dr. Allen and his team!"
"The staff is friendly and welcoming. My teeth look wildy better than they did before braces. Also, they have delicious cookies."
"What a wonderful orthodontist. A beautiful office, friendly staff and they go out of their way to help you. My daughter was excited to get her braces put on by Dr. Nick and can't wait to go for her next appointment."
"What a wonderful business. From the time you walk in to the time you leave, the staff makes you feel comfortable and are very courteous. They take the time to sit and answer all your questions and concerns and even help you work out a schedule that works for you. Since we knew our daughter needed braces and came from 40 minutes away, they worked her into their schedule so her braces we're put on after our consultation so we didn't have to make another 40 minute trip back. Her follow-up appointments are far enough part that we are not running back every four-five weeks. They have the latest technology and are very focused on your/your child's care and comfort. I would definitely recommend Dr. Allen and Dr. Nick to everyone."
"The people here are absolutely amazing and are a huge help when dealing with the best process for your braces!"
"My daughter had an wonderful experience from beginning to end. Dr. Allen's office is such a professional well run office. Dr. Allen and his staff take care to make sure everything is taken care of on a 5 star level. From your initial consultation, every visit, the beautiful office with drinks, snacks, all the little customer service touches to the end when the whole staff sings to you when your braces come off. I would recommend this office to anyone!"
"Dr. Allen and his team have been amazing with both of my kids and their individual orthodontic needs. The added bonus is both of them love going to his office for the warm fresh cookies, video gaming area and being able to earn more points in the rewards club! Even my little one with the braces doesn't mind going😉. Thank you Wheaton Orthodontic Center!!"
"All the people who work there are so nice and helpful and I would recommend this place to future kids that require braces in the future."
"I cannot say enough wonderful things about this practice and staff. Both of my daughters had braces put on and were treated by Dr Allen and his staff. The work was impeccable. They are professional and very friendly and hospitable. Dr Allens attention to detail makes all the difference.Two techs stand out. Kelly and Lynette. They made my daughter comfortable and at ease. This had proven to be a big task on several occasions but the handled it with ease. She didn't dread her appointments and actually looked forward to them finding both ladies easy to enter common ground with.Now that a 2nd orthodontist has been added to the practice appointments are much more flexible. His work is just as wonderful as Dr Allens and he is as friendly and professional as well.Well worth the price and commute to Wheaton."
"My experience at Dr. Allen's office was such a positive experience. Not only did I feel welcome by all the staff and Dr. Allen himself, but I always felt I was going to a modern office that cared about their patients and their braces experience. As a college student, I often came home on strange times and was still able to find a appointment with their flexible hours. I would recommend Wheaton Orthodontics to anyone who wants a straight and lovely smile & a great experience!"
"I highly recommend Dr Allen. I got my braces in my late forty's...I was very self conscious about my smile. My teeth not only look great but I look younger! Thank you Dr Allen for my beautiful smile!"
"My husband had braces with Dr Allen. His smile looks amazing! He never used to show his teeth when he smiled. We just got our wedding pictures back and he is all smiles. He lsmile is beautiful!"
"Wheaton Orthodontics is a wonderful service provider. We have had a great experience with both sets of phase 1 braces for our children. Dr. Allen and his staff are top notch!!!"
"Highly recommend Dr. Allen at Wheaton Orthodontic Center. About a year ago, I brought my 13-year old son to Wheaton orthodontics to redeem a coupon for a free football mouthguard given to us during equipment pickup for the Glen Ellyn Golden Eagles.During the free custom mouthguard fitting, Dr. Allen provided a complimentary evaluation of my son's teeth. My son was already wearing braces from another orthodontist, and Dr. Allen said things were looking good and coming along nicely. I took the opportunity to ask Dr. Allen his opinion on extractions because our current orthodontist was recommending we pull FOUR of my son's teeth as part of his treatment plan. We had questioned this direction over and over and asked other orthodontist if there was ANY way to avoid this drastic measure and were told that unfortunately our son's teeth would be overcrowded without the extractions.Well, Dr. Allen just shook his head with disappointment that extractions were being proposed. He proceeded to describe the long term future "look" of a smile with extensive extractions, and it wasn't pretty. All those missing teeth, even professionally straightened and aligned would eventually make for a smaller looking mouth and a less broad smile. In essence, we would be giving up the possibility of a wide Hollywood smile just for "straight teeth". He went on to say that with a different type of braces (I believe the Damon method?) that he utilizes, along with artistic tweaks that could produce the kind of smile we were looking for without pulling ANY teeth!We left that appointment with our free mouthguard for football and a plan of action. We scheduled an appointment with our former Orthodontist and gave one final plea to not pull our son's teeth and described the treatment plan Dr. Allen had described. Our Orthodontist said that what we were describing was a more sophisticated and advanced technique than their office was able to provide and continued to push extractions as the best solution. Needless to say, we parted ways with this provider.Dr. Allen's office provided an extremely smooth transition into their office. I don't recall her name, but the woman in charge of the financial end of things literally handled EVERYTHING with my insurance. Worked with my old provider to obtain a refund for what we had paid in advance for old braces, and applied that to Dr. Allen's treatment plan, and helped us set up a payment plan that made the financial transition seamless. She was so friendly and down to earth and willing to take the time to help us through this unusual situation.Within a few days, the old braces removed, and new braces put on. First thing my son said was that this appointment was the first he had experienced that did not cause him any pain. Even on the days after his adjustment appointments, there were no longer complaints of the aches he used to experience.Our original treatment plan called for my son's braces to come off in March of 2017...just over 2 years. We just scheduled our final appointment with Dr. Allen for early Dec. 2016 to have his braces taken off! Three months earlier than originally proposed! What a great Christmas gift to us...3 months of payments AND what we can already tell is going to be a wide perfect smile!I rarely if ever write reviews...but Dr. Allen and his wonderful team deserve accolades. Thank goodness we got a second opinion! Thanks Dr. Allen!-Melinda Mesina"
"Dr. Allen and the rest of the staff at the Wheaton Orthodontic Center are well experienced and professional. I had my braces on during high school and they made the process as easy as possible with my busy schedule."
"Dr. Allen and his staff are wonderful. My daughter is a patient there getting ready for braces. She is engaged in their incentive programs and looks forward to going in to their super fun office geared towards kids and teens. I trust Dr Allen... In a world of opportunists he showed me he is 100% focused on what's best for my daughter... Opting to let nature take its course before getting braces before her time. They have watched her progression and made her extremely comfortable and made me feel like I know what ti expect. Dr. Allen has a great reputation as we find more friends who love him, too. We chose wisely."
"We have been going to Dr. Allen for 2 years now. Both of my boys have braces. My boys actually enjoy going to the orthodontist.Their teeth look great too.Best part, the office has been remodeled and now I feel like I am at a modern coffee house when waiting for my boys to finish up.Thank you to the ENTIRE staff and Dr. Allen for making our visits comfortable!"
"Dr. Allen and his staff are amazing!!! Every dentist I took my daughter to has told me that she was going to have to have braces since she was 3 years old. Then when she was 8 it was time and we were on a hunt. Every single orthodontist we went to for consultation said they were going to have to break her jaw. I wasn't having that. I searched and searched. There was absolutely no way I was going to let them break her jaw. I found Dr. Allen and I am so glad I did. She is, well...was considered to be a Class 3 with an extreme underbite. Dr Allen was able to fix her jaw without breaking it with the new Damon braces. Every time you step into his office, you feel like family. Dr. Allen and staff are so nice and the genuinely care. Today my daughter got her braces off. What a whirlwind from beginning to end. She is going to miss Kelly and Jess. Thank you for being there for her. Today was emotional for both of us. I'm proud of her and her hard work. The results are amazing. Thank you again!!!"
"We appreciate the entire staff at Wheaton Orthodontic Center! With both my son and I going through the process of braces, the help with insurance, payment plans, and scheduling is made easier with doctors and staff willing to take the time to be sure we understand the process and are completely satisfied!Thank you."
"We have had the best experience so far with Dr.Allen and his entire staff! My son got his braces on today and it was such a positive experience for both him and myself!"
"I highly recommend Wheaton Orthodontic Center to any person seeking dental alignment treatment. I am a current patient and I must say that my experience thus far has been nothing short of excellent. The staff is always friendly, greeting me with a warm welcome every visit. The front receptionists have kindly helped me a handful of times to reschedule appointments, without any problems. Dr. Allen himself is not only a wonderful orthodontist but a wonderful person as well. I have taken note at my visits that he is not only friendly toward myself but exceedingly personable with all his patients and staff. Dr. Allen definitely provides each person with a genuine welcome. Not to mention he is dedicated to each patients personal progress and satisfaction. I originally started my treatment through Wheaton Orthodontics with invisalign. When I began to feel as if I was not the best candidate for invisalign, I asked if it would be possible that my treatment could be switched to braces. Without hesitation Dr. Allen graciously told me he would have no problem switching me to braces. This is an exceptional office with an even more exceptional staff working it."
"Me and my sister both had braces for two years given to us by Dr. Allen D.D.S and it was a great experience. Me and my sister now have great, perfectly straight teeth i couldn't recommend this place more. I loved it!"
