This is by far the best dentist in Kendall. I've been living here for more than 20 years, and I have had many prior experiences with other dentists, and never have I had such a good experience. I had a dental implant done here about 2 years ago, and I have no complaints.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
At what age should I schedule my child's first orthodontic screening?
The American Association of Orthodontics recommends children receive their first orthodontic screening by the age of 7. It is around this age that some of their permanent adult teeth have come in, and we are able to observe their growth and development to keep an eye out for any issues.
What will happen during my first braces appointment?
First, we'll take some photos and x-rays if necessary, and Dr. Rotaru will conduct an examination of your mouth, teeth, jaws, and face. We'll go over your options, answer any questions, and cover the cost and financing options for your braces treatment. We will then develop a comprehensive treatment plan suited to your needs, and schedule an appointment for your braces placement.
What happens when my braces are put on?
Having braces put on is a pain-free process that usually takes 1 - 1.5 hours. First, your teeth are cleaned and dried. We then apply a special bonding glue and place the brackets. Finally, the archwire is run through the brackets and everything is secured in place with elastics or ties. If you're wearing self-ligating braces (which are tie-less), we'll skip that last step. When finished, we'll give you information on how to care for your braces and send you on your way!
