I am very satisfied with the work that Dr. Wirtz did on my teeth. I get alot of great compliments about my teeth. Dr. Wirtz and his staff were very friendly. I enjoyed going to each appoinment.

His work is great. I would recommend his services to anyone. Dr. Wirtz and his staff would always make sure that you knew how your treatment plan was going. He would keep you up to date of how your teeth were doing.

My brother and I were one of Dr. Wirtz's 1st orthodontic patients back in the day. He is kind, professional, knowledgeable, and extremely patient. (I was 13 then if that says anything). His services, along with his staff, are remarkable. I had braces for about 2 years. During that time, I had the headgear (for all those old-timers), and a bar placed in the roof of my mouth to spread the palate. Like I really needed a bigger mouth. to go along with my loud voice.

Post braces, I had the upper removable retainer. and the semi-permanent lower retainer. If there were any issues Dr. Wirtz resolved them immediately. My advice to kids is, listen to Dr. Wirtz! Don't chew gum and chips! Oh and floss. Please floss. For the rest of your life. Somewhere in his mouth mold archives, he has the before and after molds of my teeth.

They are legendary. Okay, not really. The teeth molds were just crooked teeth with an overbite, and then straight. They are still straight to this day by the way. If I still lived in the area, Dr. Wirtz would have been the chosen orthodontist for my kids. Thank you Dr. Wirtz!

Ok so yesterday my daughter was in an accident on her moped and she did some damage to her front teeth and soft tissue. We called her orthodontist very late last night and he called me back with in 10 minutes of my call. He got us in this morning at 8:45 am ( HE'S NOT EVEN OPEN ON FRIDAYS) and he fixed her teeth. You know what the best part is. . .

he did not even charge me!! Y'all when I tell you I LOVE this man. He gave me his cell phone number in case anything goes wrong before her next appointment. Who does that any more! He is simply the best all around. If you're in the market for an Orthodontist go see Dr. Wirtz. I'm telling you he is the BEST and you wont be disappointed!!

I had my braces put on as a kid by Dr. Wirtz as well as permanent retainers at least 20 years ago. I recently moved to Nevada and my current dentist is telling me I need to consider removing my permanent retainers for xyz reasons and obtain removables which didn’t sit right with me and not being able to yet find a dentist or orthodontist out here that I trust I took a chance and called Dr. Wirtz office and I explained the situation to the lady on the phone and she was kind enough to ask Dr. Wirtz for his opinion and both the lady on the phone and Dr.

Wirtz gave me their thoughts/opinions but also provided me some reassurance. After 20 years I can see both Dr. Wirtz and his team still provide great care and service to their patients! If you or your kids need orthodontia work definitely come see Dr. Wirtz and his team!
