Good Communication
Quality care takes time, careful planning, and good communication. Communication with the patient and the patient’s family is essential from the very beginning when treatment options are evaluated with Dr. Del Toro and Dr. Kimes, and the treatment plan is agreed upon by the patient and/or guardian. Each step of the treatment process and patient progress is discussed so that everyone is well-informed and expectations are met prior to the placement of the braces. Patient questions and feedback are encouraged at every stage of the treatment process.

Fun & Friendly environment
We enjoy getting to know our patients on a personal level, keeping up with school activities and supporting local athletic teams. We promote a relaxed, fun environment where patients and their families feel comfortable. All our patients especially enjoy participating in office contests and reward incentive programs.

Focus on Health
A beautiful smile and healthy teeth go hand-in-hand with a focus on general health. Dr. Del Toro and Dr. Kimes not only improve the aesthetics of your smile, treatment improves malocclusions (bad bites) resulting from tooth or jaw misalignment. Patients with malocclusions may have a have a harder time brushing, flossing, and chewing, as well as TMJ soreness. Additionally,we will give you and your general dentist regular updates on your oral hygiene and health. Quality orthodontic treatment together with routine dental care help to ensure that teeth will function correctly and stay in proper alignment for a lifetime.

Personalized Care
Every patient will be examined for their specific needs and an individualized plan will be recommended.  Most importantly, Dr. Del Toro and Dr. Kimes will carry out most of the orthodontic treatment.  Their goal is to spend time with each patient at every appointment to ensure that treatment is progressing as planned.  Our philosophy of personalized care has been greatly appreciated by various pediatric dentists and general dentists that frequently refer patients to our office!
