We had a very positive experience. I truly appreciate the ethical and professional care provided by the Dr. who is currently helping my daughter with a TMJ-related condition. What stood out to me was the Dr’s commitment to evaluating not only the aesthetic aspects of orthodontic treatment, but also the underlying anatomy and structure of the mouth.
In my experience, proper evaluation of the oral structures is extremely important, as it may help identify issues that could otherwise lead to painful and costly complications. I appreciate the thorough and patient-centered approach taken by this office.
I would also like to recognize “Maria” ⭐️ at the front desk for her warm welcome, kindness and assistance throughout our visit. She’s friendly, cheerful and highly professional, and she makes patients feel comfortable and valued.
Thank You all for your outstanding care and professionalism..!

I came in for an appointment today and had a really great experience. The blonde assistant with glasses (it was my first time meeting her) was incredibly polite and easy to talk to. She made me feel comfortable right away and was very gentle and caring throughout my visit.
The doctors there are fantastic as always, and the whole team does a great job. I also love how convenient the location is—super close to home!
Highly recommend this office!

One of the things that has stood out most to me about Dr. Taylor Swallow is his attention to detail and the level of precision he brings to his work. You can tell he genuinely cares about doing things the right way and creating the best possible outcome for each patient.
As we’ve gone through treatment for our daughters and my wife, I’ve been consistently impressed by how thorough and focused he is. He takes time to carefully evaluate every aspect of treatment, explains things clearly, and approaches each step with intention and expertise. Nothing ever feels rushed or overlooked.
We originally came in seeking airway-focused treatment and expansion, and it’s been incredible to see the improvements—not just aesthetically, but in breathing, sleep quality, jaw development, and overall health. The changes have been significant, and it’s obvious there is a high level of skill and planning behind the results.
Dr. Taylor combines technical excellence with genuine care for his patients, which is a rare combination. We’ve felt confident throughout the entire process that our family is in very capable hands. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for dental care that is thoughtful, comprehensive, and truly high quality.
