Smile Doctors Orthodontics

Smile Doctors Orthodontics is a prominent and rapidly expanding orthodontic service organization (OSO) in the United States. Founded in 2015 by orthodontists Dr. Scott Law, Dr. Dana Fender, and Dr. Greg Goggans, the company is built on a "people-first culture" and a mission to create confident smiles. They operate a vast network of over 550 convenient locations across 36 states, with their founding orthodontists still guiding the organization. Smile Doctors provides a comprehensive range of orthodontic treatments for patients of all ages, including children, teens, and adults. Their services include traditional metal braces, ceramic braces, and various clear aligner options like Invisalign® and their proprietary Smile Express®. Invisalign® is a popular choice for discreet teeth straightening, while Smile Express® offers a faster, orthodontist-led at-home aligner treatment option for cosmetic adjustments, often completed in six months or less. A key aspect of Smile Doctors' approach is their integration of technology for enhanced patient convenience. They utilize the "Smile Doctors Anywhere" app, which allows patients to direct message their orthodontist, schedule appointments, check balances, make payments, and even conduct remote care visits through smile scans. This app-enabled remote monitoring aims to make orthodontic treatment more accessible and flexible for busy individuals. Smile Doctors emphasizes a patient-centric philosophy, aiming to remove administrative burdens from orthodontists so they can focus on providing high-quality patient care. They offer free initial consultations, during which a comprehensive orthodontic exam, including photos and X-rays, is conducted to develop a personalized treatment plan. They also work with most insurance plans and provide flexible payment options and discounts to make treatment affordable. The organization is a large network of "Diamond Plus Invisalign® providers" and their orthodontists are typically members of professional organizations like the American Association of Orthodontists. The Charleston, IL location, specifically "Smile Doctors Orthodontics - Charleston IL" at 1607 18th St, serves the local community with these comprehensive services. This clinic, like others in the Smile Doctors network, offers a bilingual (Spanish-speaking) team and is committed to delivering tailored orthodontic solutions to help patients achieve their desired smiles.
