The staff are all top notch and the treatment plan was easy to understand, I can’t recommend them enough. They were very helpful with my surgical needs and were kind throughout the whole process.

We started treatment about 2 years ago and it went by extremely fast. The team was very helpful and educated my son and I every step of the way.

In the beginning we just came in to improve his smile but it turns out that the treatment has improved his concentration and he no longer struggles with sleep apnea. Yes, he’s only
13 but he was struggling with sleep apnea as a minor due to his narrow palate. He sleeps like a baby as he should at such a young age.

The results are amazing! I recommend Dr. Teng and his team!
Thank you very much for all you do!

Today was my first experience at JT ortho and I’m not exaggerating hands down the best dentistry office ever, I believe her name was Cali but she was the sweetest person ever I never spoke or had a good experience with the dentist in my life until today and she helped me feel at home and heard! 10/10

My experience with Dr. Teng started with a transfer from a different orthodontist. They made my transfer easy. My treatment didn’t take long, and they made every step of the way as smooth as possible!
