"The entire team is extremely friendly and they all do a fantastic job. There were even a few times that the techs I would be paired with would follow up on conversations we had 2+ months ago! I was recommended by a family member and Iām happy to say I would also highly recommend to all."
"I am actually the 3rd person in my family that has gone to Associated Orthodontists. Always a great experience when we go there. Professional and always very friendly."
"I really like this place, all the staff are very friendly. Dr. Cortopassi is very professional, respectful and friendly. It makes you feel comfortable on every visit."
"My son had a class III underbite, which negatively impacts a person's quality of life if it's not treated early on. When he was little, we were told that we would seriously need to consider putting him through maxilofacial surgery and break his jaw to correct the underbite and problems it could cause. When our son was 9, his dentist told us we should go see Associated Orthodontists to get an opinion on starting braces. Even though most of his baby teeth hadn't begun to fall out, we went ahead and made an appointment with Associated Orthodontists. Dr. Ramir explained the process of correcting the severe underbite, and he was confident that starting orthodontic treatment right away would be the only course of action we'd need to take. The staff at Associated Orthodontists was very helpful the whole time we had our son in treatment. The process and timeline was explained up front, and we were able to make monthly payments to pay off his braces in 12 months. Our son wore the braces for just under 2 years, and now he has a confident smile with no more underbite issues! We would highly recommend Associated Orthodontists for anyone needing orthodontic intervention."

"The staff here is so great. They are always so helpful and kind. I've had to change appointments for my son because of school commitments or other things and they are always so flexible. My son broke a bracket and they got us in within an hour or so and since he was due to get an adjustment in a few weeks they just did it right then. The office is beautiful and clean as well. We've been very happy so far with Associated Orthodontists!"
"I recommend this place! Everyone has been very kind, helpful and organized! I got to my appointment on time and they called me within a couple minutes. Iāve been starting the process of getting Invisalign. I had my initial consultation which went really smoothly. Now I just completed my scanning, which did not require all the goopy stuff other orthodontics use, just a simple scanning device that they move around in your mouth along your gum line. Next appointment will be receiving the trays, installing these little attachments, doing a fitting. Looking forward to it!"
"I canāt say enough good things about Associated Orthodontists. Having two kids in braces at the same time felt like it should be stressful, but the team made it stress-free. My kids felt at ease and I was more than pleased with the care and customer service."
"My sonās teeth look perfect and our experience at Associated has been wonderful! As a busy mom, I especially appreciated all the ways they keep in touch and text reminders etc. The staff is friendly and professional and I was able to set up a payment plan that worked well with my budget!"

"Dr. Jones and his staff are very friendly. They are very prompt with the appointments and always help answer any questions. I definitely recommend Associated Orthodontists!"
"Dr. Cortiposi is the BEST! His energy is infectious! My daughter who is now 27 went to him back when she was in 8th grade. Now my 12 and 14 year old see him as well! As old as I am I put my trust in him two years ago and just got my braces off yesterday, what a way to start off the year with taking my braces off after 2 years !!! (44 years old) and I can smile with confidence! What an amazing place to be. Always accommodating. Clean, professional and always on time!!! My whole family have been patients and would not go anywhere else for our orthodontist services! Thank you making me feel good as my age! Happy new year to an amazing staff and best orthodontist we could ask for!"
"Went in for a consultation and was so impressed with everyone as to their friendliness, professionalism and efficiency all of which are hard to find in businesses these days. Thank you for the great experience and I look forward to starting my Invisalignās soon."
"I am so impressed and thankful to Associated Orthodontics for seeing my daughter last minute. We are from Florida and her wire came loose and was really bothering her. Not only did they take her and fix the wire without being a patient, they also gave it to us with no charge. What an amazing business this is and I highly recommend them. Thank you!!"
"Staff is friendly, appointments are typically on time, and the process is well organized and smooth. Overall a great experience with Associated Orthodontists!"

"1 child with braces by Associated (New Lenox) and another on the way. Throughout the process everyone, literally everyone has been friendly, courteous and knowledgeable. No issues whatsoever."
"I personally had braces with Associated Orthodontists from 1990-1992, in Morris, and my son had braces with Associated Orthodontist from 2010-2012, in Plainfield. Associated Orthodontist is knowledgeable, descriptive of what will happen throughout your time with braces, and our teeth have not shifted back to what they were, (we both do occasionally wear our retainers still). Presently we are waiting for our daughter to lose her last 2 baby teeth and she will be getting braces through Associated Orthodontist."
"From start to finish our first visit was great. Very friendly greeting by reception staff. Everything was explained throughly and everyone was incredibly helpful. My son was so excited to get his braces the staff fit us in the schedule and he got them put on that same visit. Dr. Jones was super easy to talk to and made my son feel at ease. All our questions were answered and we left the office with smiles on our faces. š"
"Dr. Ramir and Erin were really great at explaining the process and plan for my sonās braces treatment. The staff is also super nice as well. The smile rewards program is such a cool concept too!"

"Absolutely blown away by all the staff and their services. Took my son in for an evaluation to get her braces. The staff is extremely friendly, outgoing, and very informative. They answered any and all questions me and my son had. They Provided us with different options and payment plans as well. Needless to say we moved forward with getting them. My son said they did an amazing job and made him feel very comfortable. So kudos to everyone here, I look forward to seeing you all over the next 2 yrs of this process. Thank you again"
"Very friendly staff, great personable doctors, and easy and fair financial planning! Plus got a free t shirt, and who doesnāt like a free t shirt? ā”Ģ"
"I love this place. Always welcoming and friendly staff. When making appointments for multiple children, they try to do their best on getting them together to make less trips for us."
"We had an excellent experience with Associated five plus years ago for my first two kids and excited for the improved smile we will soon see with our youngest. From ease of setting up appointments, checking in and great doctors and office staff they have it all!"
"Came here for a 3rd opinion and we are so happy that we did! It was a great experience from the moment we walked in. Great plan that was significantly shorter than the other two opinions, more detailed and more clearly explained. Once we made the decision, they agreed to get her in later the same day! The process was quick and minimal discomfort during and after."

"Just had a quick appointment to fix a wire that had popped out of the bracket. Was out in 5 mins. Staff is always very friendly. I would definitely recommend."
"Great group of people. We actually walked in as we thought it was another orthodontist that is located on the same block. The staff was really friendly and even helped us find the right place on the block. They gave us a card and said give them a call if we wanted a second opinion. We ended up visiting 3 days later and getting braces from Associated Orthodontist. The staff was extremely friendly, helpful and upbeat. Would highly recommned them."
"My daughter completed her smile journey with Associated Orthodontists a few years ago and my son begins his today! Would not take my children anywhere else! Fantastic patient care, great doctors, flexible appointment times and they do not keep you waiting forever when you arrive for your appointment. Highly recommend!"

"My son Jaxon just had his first appointment there today and I was very impressed by the cleanliness of the office, the friendly and knowledgeable staff, and that my appointment was on time."
"I cannot say enough about Associated Orthodontists. When I was a teenager, they treated me and I received beautiful teeth. When it came time for my son to have his braces there was no where else I wanted him to go. Every single person is so kind and patient. The offices are very clean and organized. The entire process is smooth, which as a parent I appreciate. Thank you for making a nervous child feel so confident walking out."
"Associated Orthodontics in Plainfield is one of the best offices youāll ever come into! I have had two children go through their orthodontic treatment here. The entire staff is extremely professional and friendly. The Dr.ās are always on top with their level of care to give you the absolute best result. And, the office staff is just absolutely phenomenal! With that being said, I can honestly say there isnāt anything bad to say about this office! Thank you, Associated Orthodontics!"

"I am a mature adult professional and family man with braces, and wouldn't want pain or problems in this process. What I got here was pleasant, professional, and personable staff, team members, and Dr. Scott. The level of care and competence keep any anxiety down and I am very pleased with the results from Associated Orthodontists and of wearing braces for 18 months. Got my braces removed today, and I am happy and smiling... BIG! šš"
"I had a great experience at Associated Orthodontist in Frankfort. They are one of the few places in the area that offer the Damon braces I wanted. The prices of their payment plans were very reasonable after I applied my insurance benefits. Scheduling was very easy even though the facility is not open five days a week. The doctor and staff were very friendly and willing to answer questions. Super clean and comfortable environment. My teeth look great and couldnāt be happier with the results.My only small complaint would be the reward system. I received information about it the initial application day, but you get so much information I admittedly forgot about it. It was only until the final visit 18 months later did I have a technician discuss and apply my points. I would have definitely participated and received more if all the techs did it at each visit of an occasional reminder. (But itās a great point system and encourage everyone to participate if you can). I also referred a friend a few months ago, but no gift card was ever received."
"We started my daughter journey with Braces yesterday and I could not be happier with how welcoming, caring and efficient this office is! They calmed her nerves, worked so quickly all while making her super comfortable! Such a great experience!"

"From my son Austin who got his braces on Wednesday: The office staff is very friendly and I didnāt have to wait long at all. The doctor explained everything he was going to do and before I left, made sure I understood what I needed to do. I really liked going here."
"My daughter was only 8 when she received her braces. She's now barely 9 yrs old. Dr Ramir & all the associates have been so nice, helpful, & supportive. I definitely recommend!"
