Why Choose Us?

“Small & Piers Orthodontics Office have provided amazing care to both of our sons. We currently have our 2 sons in braces and this office made it affordable and convenient for us to have them receive the treatment together at the same time. Dr. Small and Dr. Piers have thoroughly explained their treatments, the time involved, the care/hygiene for their teeth and answered any questions we as a family have had. Becky, specifically, has went above and beyond to help appointments fit our family’s schedule, to work us in with very short notice when brackets became loose, set up payment schedules and to help answer a million questions I feel like we’ve had. This office has shown compassion and care to our family through the years as our boys are the second generation to receive their orthodontic treatment.”

“I can’t say enough about this dental practice! The staff is friendly, educated, polite, kind and patient to everyone that walks through the door! Then there’s the Orthodontist….this young man is everything I had hoped for and more! Both of my boys needed full braces AT THE SAME TIME and let’s face it….this is not cheap but he helped my family, my children, get the help we needed to give my boys the beautiful smile that everyone deserves! This young man knows his stuff! He’s extremely smart and the photos and awards on the walls tells you his story about how hard he worked in college to get to where he is today! He’s extremely smart but he’s down to earth and he is wonderful with my 2 teen boys! I highly recommend Small & Piers Orthopedics to give you “that million dollar smile.”

“Three of my children (Breanna, Izzy and PJ) have had amazing experiences with Dr. Small and Piers for 4 years. Their confidence has developed with having their teeth adjusted regularly with braces and posts. Both of their situations have been extensive, due to their particular and individual circumstances. Yet, there’s a joy when they walk through the door, and they always have a pleasant time being welcomed and visiting with the staff and Orthodontists. From the beginning, continued communication has helped our family know that our money has been well-spent to establish beautiful smiles, less pain from structural issues that have been corrected, and easier function for eating and speech. The staff and Orthodontists always try to be flexible with scheduling for our school and/or work. It never seems to be an imposition, but their pleasure to serve our family. We highly recommend Dr. Small and Piers for your or your children’s orthodontic needs.“

“Dr. Small and Martin took care of my daughter 7 years ago and it was such a great experience for us all. Now today, my son met Dr. Piers (as did I) to begin our braces journey for him. It was an incredible appointment! The staff has always been extremely kind and supportive. The ladies at the front desk are just as cordial! We love it here and that’s why we came back. So glad we did and we’re looking forward to another successful outcome! Thank you to all the staff ❤️ ~ Veronica, Logan & Grace“

– Danielle B.

“Moving across the country during the middle of my Invisalign treatment was a very stressful time. I was very worried about having to transfer my treatment to a new orthodontist. I have always had anxiety about going to the dentist anyway AND I was especially concerned that I would wind up having to pay a lot extra due to the transfer. However, I couldn’t believe how easy the transfer process was with Smalls & Piers, and how comfortable I felt going to their office! Every single staff member makes the office so warm and welcoming and I felt like every one of them cared about me and my teeth. For the first time ever I truly had zero anxiety going here. It was surprisingly extremely affordable and the quality of care I got was just incredible. I worked with Dr. Piers and he is just an amazing person, I honestly am SO grateful and feel so lucky I found this practice. I give the highest recommendation possible for Smalls & Piers orthodontics! Thank you all for everything, I can’t express how grateful I am for the care you provided and the way I was treated at your office :)”

“From the front office staff to Becky all the way to Dr. Piers my son and I were welcomed warmly at this office. Everything was explained and there was a personal connection from the beginning. Becky and Dr. Piers both took the time to ask my son about his interests, which meant a lot. If we HAVE to get braces… this is definitely the place to do it. Thanks Small & Piers orthodontics!!!”

“Dr. Small and Piers truly provide the best care for their patients. Kristin, Janelle, and Judy were always wonderful with my daughter. Becky and Sharon are always so friendly and professional. And you’re in for a treat if you get to see Carmen as well! I work in a dental office and we refer all of our patients to Small and Piers for quality care!“

– Brittney R.

“We had huge reservations about pursuing orthodontic treatment for our son due to his high anxiety and sensory issues. Those reservations immediately evaporated when we brought him in for his evaluation. Becky was incredibly kind and patient with our son. She explained everything she was doing with him and allowed him to take breaks when he was feeling uncomfortable. It was so refreshing to not feel rushed and to have his needs respected. Thanks to her patience, he had the best experience we’ve ever had at an oral health provider – no fears or tears! When I returned to review his treatment plan, Becky addressed all of my concerns regarding sensory issues before I could even bring them up myself. As a special needs parent, I am used to having to switch into advocacy mode, so this was a welcome respite. I am so pleased that our son will be able to get the care he needs close to home!“
