Decided to get my teeth straightened at the age of 42 and selected Dr. M randomly. Lucky, I guess. He worked with me financially and over 7 years to straighten my teeth. I have terrible anxiety problems and for that reason alone, I spent so many years with horrible teeth. He was so careful with me and I trust the man implicitly. 10 years later, I continue to use the retainer at night (2nd one) and maintain the alignment. My son was also a successful patient. Don't know what I will do if he retires.
