Wow just happened to come across this and after my daughter is finished with her treatment (which is very soon) my next child will not go to this ortho. I found an almost 1200.00 discrepency in the contract i was paying on and thankgod i saved EVERY OUNCE OF PAPERWORK so i could prove what the original price quote was and i was being over charged on my monthly payments by almost 60 bucks!! Not to mention was charged the new inovations braces price for regular traditional braces that we went with and i feel that this was def done knowingly i ended up having to call their other office to confrim this price too!! HMMMM and 6 broken items later 3 of which happened literally within an hour of her checkup and who ever heard of being charged for broken brackets, wires, etc.!!would think thats included in the tremendous fee!! Called around to find my next ortho and asked each one if they charge for broken anythings at some point during treatment and they ALL said no!!

first my daughter got her braces on in seventh grade then the dentist came across saying she had tmj so he removed her front four braces temporarily to fix this problem when dr haze saw this he took it upon himself to take off all of my daughter's braces without any parental consent, after a heated argument with this man and some time away from the office we worked out a deal to get my daughters braces back on. once back on, almost every month a brace was falling off when my daughter would not evern do anything, for example sleeping. she is now a junior in highschool, and still has her braces on. and today she went to the office and got harrased by this dr who made her cry and then did a shoddy job with putting a chain on her top braces and now she is in a lot of pain. Her teeth will not even shift because it was not put on right. on top of this, i was paying 100 dollars each visit and they would tell me that i still owed the same amount that i owed two visits before. plus, today when she was there a braces went down the back of her throat almost choking her and he did not do a single thing. his assistant did

Be exremely conscientious when it comes to this practice!!!! SAVE EVERYTHING!!! Keep notes and keep good track of every broken brace and EVERY conversation you have!! I was told my son would be in his braces for 2 years!! He had a cross bite that was very easy to correct!! When 2 and 1/2 years came and went i asked him when he would be getting them off and he looked at me like i just put a gun to him and asked him for all of his money!!! He said i never said that (which he lied about) and proceeded to show the paper work, which i did sign, and you could see where he squeezed in the numbers 30-36 months!!! I went a little batty and said you did not tell me that!!! He told us 2 years my son was there and heard it as well and i even repeated the story that i told him during the conversation when he told us how long treatment would be and he blanked out and didn't recall it at all!!!! Then he wanted to say well your son is not wearing his bands and thats when i really flipped because my son had been so good abut it i find his used bands all over the house, in the garbages on the counter after he has eaten i even ask for new packs all the time when we go for is apps.!!!! So i found it very interesting when he left this particular day with a completely different bag of bands to start wearing after i told him that he had been wearing him the same exact rubber bands for the entire time of treatment without ever switching them!!!! No fair and honest ortho will charge you for standard brace breakage the way they do either!!! They tried to tell me after 3 broken brackets they start charging well i went straight to the paperwork where it stated that up to SIX broken brackets are allowed!!! They try to tell you one thing hoping you wont go double check the paperwork and catch them and trust me i have caught them a lot!!!!!!! Find someone else!!!!! Can't wait to be done!!!

I also had a very bad experience using this ortho. My son was in treatment for over 4 years when I was told it would be 2 yrs. I was charged over and over for broken brackets. I got so frustrated I finally said to take the braces off. I couldn't stand the way I was treated by him. You're right when you say he looks at you like you don't know what you're talking about when you speak to him. The office staff was rude when I questioned having to pay for broken brackets. How is it possible that when he puts these brackets on they conveniently get broken immediately so he gets to charge add'l monies? I am so glad I don't have to go there anymore. If I had known what I know now I would NEVER use this man for ANY work to be done on my kids.

This place is nothing but a load of hot air!! I was also told 2 years for my child and even had my contract divided up into 2 years worth of payments and then they want to tell my o no we said 3 years!!!?? It's BS do not go to this place because they will try to find a way to screw you over and get more money out of you!! I DID NOT pay for anything over the 2 years they told me and they were not happy about my defiance about it either but i told them take it or leave it!! I think i even scared some of the other patients and their paretnts who were sitting in the waiting room at the time but i didn't care hopefully they'll listen to what i said and take it to heart in case they happen to experience a bad situation during their treatment!! i hate to ever talk down about someone's business but this is downright sleezy practices!!! Is his business suffering that much that he needs to do these things anyway???
