My daughter LOVES Dr. Horton and the entire staff in his office! They make orthodontia great! Take 2: Kathleen got my daughter fixed when a wire unexpectedly shifted. Great job by ALL the staff. We feel right at home in the office and they did their best to fix the problem as soon as possible.

Dr Horton gets all stars from Gaby and I. Along with managing her physical smile, Dr Horton has a wonderfully grounded sense of humor: Gaby had a balloon get stuck in a tree outside Dr Horton's window, of which she would remind him of every month at her appointment--when it floated down some six months later, he and his staff retrieved it and presented it to Gaby at her next appointment! I think Gaby had very professional quality care with Dr Horton-she looks great-and his staff were always kind. It was a nice nurturing relationship and my daughter fit right in.

I would highly recommend Dr Horton and his staff.

We love Dr. Horton! He is great. Two of our four daughters currently see him. Dr. Horton makes orthodontia fun. Our girls love going into his office for a visit. He takes the time to really know the kids and talk with them. You can tell he really cares. Dr.

Horton is extremely knowledgeable about the industry and all of the new technologies. He takes the time to sit down with us and explain exactly what he wants to do and why. We have referred numerous friends to him and everyone has always had positive experiences. Everyone in the office is extremely friendly and accommodating. At one point, Teri could tell us more about what our insurance would cover than our insurance company could. She really knows her stuff and is very organized. All of our experiences with Dr. Horton's office have been wonderful!!

Horton is continually improving the orthodontia experience for his patients. He is always up to date on the latest technology. We highly recommend Dr. Horton and his very competent and friendly staff.
