Foods To Avoid

Parson's Orthodontics is wonderful. We've had a great experience with them and our boys' teeth look fantastic. The office is state of the art and the staff is always friendly and efficient. Dr. Parsons is great with the kids and very informative and thorough with us so we know exactly where we are in the process. Highly recommend.
