What Makes Us Special

  • We have very special people working on the Steen Orthodontics Team. Everyone in the office tries hard to make you feel like part of the family. We want you to know that getting braces is one of the best decisions you will ever make. As Dr. Steen guides you through treatment, our Certified Clinical Assistants will provide valuable information about your progress and challenges. As a result of our dedication to teamwork, our patients tend to complete treatment on time and with excellent results that last!
  • You are seen on time. We know that your time is valuable.
  • We don’t take shortcuts when planning treatment. We utilize comprehensive diagnostic tests (necessary digital X-rays, digital photographs and impressions of teeth) and review these records with you prior to beginning treatment. If multiple treatment options are possible, they will be reviewed with you in detail, and the best option for you or your child will be selected. We are committed to a quality result which means beautifully straight teeth that are healthy, that fit and function correctly and that stay straight for your lifetime.
  • Your treatment is "state-of-the-art." Computer imaging, digital x-rays, cavity-fighting adhesives to glue the braces on, self-ligating brackets and space-age, low-force wires (more gentle, better treatment result) are all routinely used.
  • Experience: Dr. Steen has been committed to quality Orthodontic treatment since 1978. The thousands of successful patients he has treated are all around town and continue to be ambassadors for Orthodontics in general, and Dr. Steen’s expertise in particular. Ask around.
  • Steen Orthodontics is the choice of many area Dental professionals. Dr. Steen has been creating smiles in the area since 1980. Over the years, he has treated many area dentists, their employees and their families. We work closely with all local dentists to provide a total team approach in our mutual patients’ care.
  • Dr. Steen personally places every band and bracket as well as any other appliance that will move your teeth, a factor that is critical to the quality of the final Orthodontic result. Few Orthodontic practices still offer this kind of personal attention to the quality of treatment they provide.
  • Cosmetic appliances: Clear ceramic braces, stylish gold braces and Invisalign technology are available in our office.
  • You are offered a variety of investment options. We believe money should not be a barrier to quality treatment. We have developed a full range of convenient investment options for you to choose from.
  • We provide 24-hour emergency service with NO CHARGES.
  • Commitment to continuing education: Our entire team attends numerous courses to keep up-to-date with the many changes happening in the field. All of our clinical assistants are tested to become State-Certified Orthodontic Assistants. The extra effort required to attain the COA designation is not mandatory in many offices, but it is in ours! Dr. Steen himself is Board Certified, a distinction that only 25 percent of America’s Orthodontists have earned.
  • Enhanced web services.  Our patients can receive e-mail appointment reminders, check their next appointment, review their account, and make payments online.  They can even view photos that have been taken in our office.  This service is available 24/7 and is free of charge.
  • Kid's area with video games and toys.
  • Coffee and hot tea available.
  • Quarterly office newsletter with educational and entertaining articles.
  • Monthly contest with prizes.
  • Yearly Party for patients and friends.
