Orthodontics at Smithfield Dental
At Smithfield Dental Care & Orthodontics, patients enjoy the unique advantage of having comprehensive dental and orthodontic care all under one roof. Our integrated approach means your entire smile-care journey is smoother, more convenient and more personalized than ever!
Smile Care - All in One Place
Seamless Communication & Coordinated Care
Dr. Chu, Dr. Harris and Dr. Haas work side-by-side, sharing the same charts, treatment notes and philosophy of care. This improves communication, ensures every detail is aligned, saves time and provides a more predictable and efficient treatment experience.
Fewer Appointments, Less Hassle
When everything is in one place, you don't have to juggle multiple offices, schedules or records. Cleanings, check-ups and orthodontic appointments can often be coordinated on the same day - saving you time and making life easier.
Early Detection & Prevention
Because your dental and orthodontic team collaborate daily, potential issues are spotted earlier. Whether it's monitoring growth and development in children or addressing tooth health during braces or aligner treatment, problems can be managed before they become more serious.
The American Association of Orthodontists (AAO) recommends that children begin regular evaluations by age 7
