For me, being the best orthodontist I can be means much more than simply putting on braces and straightening teeth. My greatest joy comes from helping my patients achieve the smile they've always wanted: one they'll love for the rest of their life. When people ask me, Dr. Hao, what is the best part of being an orthodontist?
Both of my sons are patients there and actually enjoy going to see Dr. Hao. He is very easy going and made my children feel very at ease. The job he did on their teeth was exceptional, which was my number one priority when taking them there. But the real bonus was how nice and approachable Dr. Hao and his staff are.
Orthodontics has been my calling since I was a teenager with braces. I realized the tremendous impact an orthodontist can have as I watched my own transformation. Being able to smile with confidence stays with you throughout your life, whether you're smiling for the prom, senior portraits, wedding pictures, or a job interview.
Our smiles are how we greet the world. Healthy, straight teeth fill us with confidence, and that shows in every interaction: at school, at work, and in our personal lives. When we know our smile looks incredible, we love to share it, and that opens doors, sets others at ease, and invites smiles in return.
If you'd like to share some kind words and smiles, please ask our front desk staff for a comment card at your next appointment. We'd love to hear about your experience! Hao is an excellent orthodontist; he has the best bedside manner that I've seen in quite a while!

While this is my second time getting braces as an adult (the first time by another orthodontist), Dr. Hao reassured me that this will be my last time having them, by adding a permanent top and bottom retainer.His staff mirrors him, they are very friendly and courteous. It's just a pleasant atmosphere all the way around!

Front desk staff was welcoming, check in easy. Dr. Hao was so friendly with my nervous 11yo and talked him through basics with ease.

We absolutely LOVE Dr Hao and his staff. My daughter has had nothing but a wonderful experience and her teeth look amazing. Everything was explained to us completely and there was no confusion on what to expect or how things were going to proceed.

I’m a West-coast transplant and we just relocated to Southern Maryland a few months ago. My permanent retainer came loose and of course I panicked. Chesapeake Orthodontist called back right away and got me an appointment as soon as they could. They were friendly, quick and did an amazing repair. If I ever need anything orthodontic related, I will only come here and recommend anyone who is looking for an orthodontist to do the same! Thank you to all the staff!

Chesapeake Orthodontics is such a friendly and professional establishment. Dr. Hao is genuinely very kind, honest and knowledgeable. I was impress with his sincerity and he will work with you and your child's situation. He meets with you at every appointment and explains the process of where your child is in their orthodontal adventure. Highly recommended.
