Merritt Orthodontics
Merritt Orthodontics has been an experienced and respected provider of orthodontic services in San Antonio and the surrounding area for more than 20 years. Dr. Jeffrey Merritt believes in a conservative methodology of care by avoiding extractions whenever possible and recommending treatment only when absolutely necessary.

At Merritt Orthodontics we are committed to creating beautiful, healthy smiles while assuring that your treatment experience is timely, affordable, comfortable, and fun. We look forward to providing you with the highest standard of orthodontic treatment available, whether you choose traditional metal braces, clear braces, or Invisalign clear aligners.
Services
Orthodontics runs in my family. My dad was an orthodontist and I grew up working in his practice after school and on weekends. There was no way around it: I was meant to be an orthodontist. I have the best job in the world. I absolutely love coming to my office every day. In fact, I hesitate to even call it "work, " it's so enjoyable.
We recognize that all of our patients are unique and deserve to receive orthodontic care that reflects their individual needs. Our experienced and talented team is committed to working with you and your family to create a comfortable, stress-free, and rewarding orthodontic experience every time you visit our practice.
Upon graduation from dental school, orthodontists go on to complete an additional two to three years of residency training at an accredited school or health/science center. Semester-long courses include head and neck anatomy, biomechanics, occlusion, and dentofacial growth and development, just to name a few.
Our greatest goal is to give you the healthy, straight, beautiful smile that you've always wanted. We understand that choosing to receive orthodontic care is a big decision, and we respect your reasons for wanting to improve the way you look and feel. Our practice will work with you every step of the way to make sure that your orthodontic care is as rewarding as possible.
The cost of your orthodontic treatment will vary depending on your individual needs and treatment plan. Our staff will discuss with you the cost of your treatment and each available payment plan option, so that you can make the best choice for you and your smile. We will work with you to create a payment plan that fits your budget, and you will know what to expect before beginning treatment.

I only have to see Dr. Merritt once a year just to check my permanent retainer. I always look forward to those visits because he did a wonderful job with braces. He and his office staff are always so pleasant to see. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I would recommend Dr. Merritt to anyone.

THIS GUY COMMITTED FRAUD!!! BE CAREFUL DOING BUSINESS WITH DR MERRIT!!! THEY WILL OVER BILL YOU!!! ADMINISTRATOR IS VERY RUDE AND UNPROFESSIONAL!!! We found Dr Merrit through the network of our insurance company. He saw both of my children and was very knowledgeable in his profession and compassionate with my children. However, I always had issues with his administrator. She was constantly ill informed and messing up our paperwork. She would charge different amounts for the same thing and I would always catch it because I had two kids in braces and was constantly looking at 2 different statements

I cannot thank him enough for the great service and care I received from him and the whole staff. They made me feel welcome and like I am part of the family.

Dr. Merritt and his staff have worked on 3/4 my children. Everyone in the office is super friendly and we are always in and out of there super fast. He has a great bedside manner with the kids and thoroughly explains everything to us parents! Highly recommended for any ortho work in the San Antonio and nearby areas!
