Foods To Avoid
Our children have been patients of Parsons Orthodontics for some time now. We always recommend Parsons Orthodontics to friends and family. We’ve been extremely happy with the level of care we have received. The office is full of caring and knowledgeable professionals who’ve gone out of their way to make my children feel comfortable. My girls know they will be treated with care, and are familiar with everyone in the office. For a welcoming, intimate office, with experience and professionalism, we will highly recommend Parsons Orthodontics.
