About Us — Duryea Ortho

Orthodontics & Dental Care with precision, comfort, and a patient-first philosophy.

Welcome to Duryea Ortho

At Duryea Ortho, we are more than just an orthodontic practice—we are partners in building healthy, lasting smiles.
Our philosophy is built on three pillars: precision care, patient comfort, and long-term results. Every smile is unique,
which is why we take time to understand your needs, your lifestyle, and your goals before crafting a treatment plan.

From children requiring early growth guidance, to teens navigating busy school schedules, to adults seeking discreet
cosmetic corrections, we serve patients at every stage of life. With a combination of modern braces, advanced clear
aligners, and preventive dental support, we make orthodontics accessible, efficient, and rewarding.

Our Story

Duryea Ortho was founded on the belief that orthodontic care should combine science and compassion. After years of
specialty training and working in multi-disciplinary clinics, our lead orthodontist envisioned a practice where every
patient received not just treatment, but education, motivation, and encouragement. What began as a small, community-based
clinic has now grown into a trusted orthodontic center serving families across the region.

Over the years, we have invested heavily in digital imaging, 3D scanning, and advanced treatment planning software.
This commitment ensures every case is approached with precision and efficiency, reducing unnecessary appointments,
minimizing discomfort, and delivering predictable outcomes. Our growth has always been guided by one principle:
a confident smile changes lives.

Our Mission

Our mission is simple: to make every patient feel valued, informed, and empowered. We aim to provide top-tier orthodontic
treatment while ensuring the journey is comfortable and stress-free. By uniting orthodontics with preventive dental care,
we not only correct smiles, but also protect oral health for years to come.

Core Values

  • Precision: treatments based on science, not guesswork.
  • Comfort: gentle approaches and patient-centered care.
  • Transparency: clear communication about options, timelines, and fees.
  • Innovation: continuous investment in new technologies and training.
  • Compassion: every patient is treated with dignity and respect.

Meet Our Team

Our team is composed of board-certified orthodontists, experienced dental hygienists, and dedicated care coordinators.
Together, they bring years of clinical knowledge and a warm, patient-first approach to every appointment. Each member
of the team undergoes ongoing education in orthodontic advancements, infection control, and patient comfort strategies.

Beyond their clinical skills, our team members are passionate educators and motivators. We want every patient to
understand the “why” behind their treatment, empowering them to take ownership of their oral health journey.

Our Treatment Approach

Every smile begins with a comprehensive consultation. Using digital scans and X-rays, we create a customized plan
that outlines your treatment steps, expected timelines, and financial options. Whether it’s traditional braces,
ceramic brackets, or clear aligners, we prioritize comfort and aesthetics.

Preventive dental care is woven into every orthodontic plan. Regular hygiene checks, fluoride treatments, and patient
education ensure teeth stay healthy during treatment, reducing the risk of cavities or gum issues. This integrated
approach is what sets Duryea Ortho apart.

Our Community Commitment

We are proud to be part of the local community. Beyond the clinic, our team regularly participates in school dental
programs, local health fairs, and charity initiatives. By promoting dental education and preventive care, we hope to
create a generation of children who view dental visits positively and embrace healthy oral habits.

Giving back is central to our identity. We believe that smiles should be accessible to all, which is why we support
outreach programs for underserved families and provide flexible financing options for patients in need.

Duryea Ortho is here to make your dream smile a reality.
