Merritt Orthodontics

Orthodontist

Orthodontics runs in my family. My dad was an orthodontist and I grew up working in his practice after school and on weekends. There was no way around it: I was meant to be an orthodontist. I have the best job in the world. I absolutely love coming to my office every day. In fact, I hesitate to even call it “work,” it’s so enjoyable. I have a passion for my patients, my staff, and my profession.

Every patient is unique. Their face, mouth, smile, personality – all are different. Likewise, each patient’s treatment is unique and individualized to achieve the best result for that person.

I love watching a patient’s self-esteem and confidence blossom as they see their teeth straighten. The day we remove the braces, and they see their finished smile shining back in the mirror, is the most rewarding moment for me: they are thrilled with the results, and I am thrilled for them.

    We love Merritt Orthodontics! Dr. Merritt took on my son's braces halfway thru because we moved. That was a little complicated and he had to deal with what was done at our previous orthodontist. He handled it very well and we are so pleased with the results. So pleased, in fact, that we will be spending the next few years visiting him with 2 more of our kiddos. Dr. Merritt doesn't push unnecessary treatment. He is very honest about our options and makes us feel confident in our decisions. The entire staff is friendly and professional. I highly recommend them!

    Dr. Merritt and his staff are truly fantastic! As an adult getting braces I wanted to make sure I was picking the right Dr. who would make my teeth look the way I always dreamt. I was set on having Invisalign; since the treatment is available at my general dentist I though I might as well consult with them and let them do all the work my mouth needed. ...
