We have had a fabulous experience with Purnell Orthodontics over the past 5 years, as both my daughter and son have had braces with them. The staff is extremely personable and nice 😁. I would highly recommend them to anyone in need of braces 😬 😊.

Dr Purnell and his whole team are amazing. I have always had extreme dental anxiety but him and his team are so patient and understanding and made me feel comfortable every visit. And of course they did an amazing job giving me my perfect smile. I 100% recommend!

You may have seen Dr. Purnell’s daughter, Pepper, in the office from time to time; shredding paper, practicing cartwheels, and her Super Mario Bros skills, and she was kind enough to give us a tour of the office!

(Pepper might have missed some of the finer points of orthodontic treatment that we will go over in your complimentary consultation, however we do agree they are “like getting jewels on your teeth.”)
