What Our Patients Are Saying

It's rare to have that doctor experience where they truly understand your individual situation and can finally explain why you have these problems, even when other doctors didn't believe you. I had that experience with Dr. Keesler. He explained so many of my unanswered questions. I can tell by his recommendations that he cares about what's in my best interest. It's so refreshing to have a doctor so intelligent who really cares about helping his patients. The staff is very friendly and kind.

After seeing multiple dentists in many states, my orthodontics hold up to exceptional standards 15 years later. My dentists repeatedly comment on the straightness of my teeth and placement of my permanent retainer 18 years after my braces were removed.
