Reichheld Ting Orthodontics: Our Family to Yours

Reichheld Ting Orthodontics: Our Family to Yours

 

At Reichheld Ting Orthodontics we are a family practice that cares for its patients as if they are one of our own - and we have a long history of doing just that. 

RTO was founded by Dr. John Reichheld, Sr. back in the 1960’s. Dr. John was a pioneer, ahead of his time; from offering a colorful fun atmosphere in the office before it was common to generously supporting his Lowell community, his legacy lives on with his sons and grandsons who now work at the practice - joined by their long-time friend and partner, Dr. Brain Ting. 

Inspired by their father, Dr. Jay and Dr. Steve studied to become orthodontists themselves and similarly, Dr. Steve Jr and Dr. Tim followed in their footsteps. Together with Dr. Brian Ting they continue the care and community building that Dr. John started. Dr. Jay will tell you that it is a real thrill to see the children or former patients and to continue a legacy of creating beautiful smiles for more than 50 years.

So just who is it that RTO treats? We believe that everyone deserves to smile confidently and that means we treat patients of every age! 

 

• Early Orthodontics: Did you know that the American Association of Orthodontics recommends that children see an orthodontist at age 7? At RTO we agree because starting early means that we can help catch irregular growth and help guide maturing jaws towards alignment that can help shorten treatment in the long run. 

 

• Teens: At RTO we know that a straight smile can do wonders for your teen’s confidence...remember, we’ve watched as generations of patients have been treated by our family members! We offer traditional braces as well as Invisalign Clear Aligners because we know that every teen is different and every case requires a unique treatment plan. If you have questions about treatment options, we’re happy to answer! 

 

• Adults: You may be surprised to learn that adults are our fastest growing population of patients. Not only do they love the convenience of being treated at the same place as their kids, they know that we are going to help them achieve the smile they’ve always wanted. We’re pleased to offer our Smile Touch-Up option for those that are yearning for small adjustments and we strive to help make that an affordable option - particularly for families that are in treatment together. 

 

If you’re looking for an orthodontic practice that has the years of know-how combined with fresh top-notch education and ideas, that is a top rated Invisalign provider (Diamond+ status!), that can treat every member of your family AND that will treat them as family...look no further.

Smile Touch-Up; Minor Fixes, Major Benefits

Many of the parents in our practice had braces in the past (but didn’t wear a retainer) and lost the straight smile they once had. Many other adults have simply never been happy with their smile. Maybe you’ve never considered orthodontics as an adult because you can’t imagine wearing metal braces to client meetings - virtual or (shudder) in-person; maybe it’s because it’s a big time and financial commitment to undergo years of braces as an adult. 

Whichever boat you fall into, we have good news! Our team doesn’t want any roadblocks in the way of you having a beautiful smile… or having it back again. 

That’s why we’re offering Smile Touch-Up to the adults of our community, where the RTO team and doctors will address only the elements of your smile that are most important to you. That means shorter treatment times and reduced fees - as low as $1890 for one arch or $2890 for two! Plus we offer flexible financing options.

People won’t notice you’re wearing them

We custom 3D print a series of clear aligners to straighten your teeth. And, unlike traditional braces that you might have had as a kid, our clear aligners are removable. You take them out briefly when you eat or brush your teeth - that means no food caught between brackets and no flashbacks to the middle school cafeteria for you. Most of the time your aligners will stay in so they can do the work of moving your teeth. The good thing is that they are virtually invisible so people won’t even notice you’re wearing them.    

While we do offer full orthodontic treatment for adults at our practice, we find that many just don’t want to make that commitment. Whether it’s financial or time restraints, our Smile Touch-Up is a great option. 

Together we will figure out which elements of your smile are most important to you. We’ll agree on a course of treatment to fix only those areas, and we’ll set an estimated timeline. Because of the limited nature of the adjustments we are able to improve your smile in a much shorter timeframe than for those looking for full orthodontic treatment. 

You’re not alone

Adults are getting braces more than ever before. The American Association of Orthodontists (AAO) says that adults are getting orthodontic treatment in record numbers, and not all of them for the first time either. Not only that, patients are reporting that after treatment they feel better about themselves and their social lives. Most would recommend seeking out treatment for other adults. Major benefits! 

See an Expert

There are many services out there claiming they can mail you aligners and fix your teeth. We strongly believe that even the smallest changes to your mouth should be done under the in-person care of a trained and certified orthodontist, and the AAO agrees. Dr. Steve Sr., Dr. Steve Jr., Dr. Tim, Dr. Brian, and Dr. Jay each has extensive schooling in both dentistry and orthodontics (with degrees from institutions such as Tufts University School of Dental Medicine, Boston University Dental School. Colgate University, College of the Holy Cross, and Trinity College) as well as specific training in treatment with clear aligners. 

Make sure you know who it is that is making changes in your mouth. What looks like a small fix could domino into major issues without a trained orthodontist looking at the full picture. 

No Obstacles

At Reichheld Ting Orthodontics we have treated thousands of teens and adults with clear aligners. We know what we’re doing and we’ve treated cases that are both difficult (Full Treatment) and simpler (Smile Touch-Up). Our team strives for clinical excellence in a friendly and welcoming environment. We appreciate that you have a busy schedule and will make sure to have you in and out as quickly as possible - time is important to us! …. It’s one of the reasons why we offer Smile Touch-Up.

Speaking of time, most of our Smile Touch-Up appointments are scheduled at 10 week intervals. And, if you’re away for longer periods of time - we’re talking to you, college students - we can even work with you to ensure your geography doesn’t get in the way of treatment with us.
