Two and a half years ago my 11 year old daughter needed braces. We looked up orthodontist in our area and found Putnam orthodontics. What a find!!!! Today is braces removal day and we couldn't be happier with the service we have received over the last two and a half years. Every dental assistant and all the staff were and are phenomenal! This is a well run office and so organized. The dentist are all top notch. Explained everything they did. I will recommend Putnam orthodontics to everyone! If you are looking for a place to have braces applied, this is your place. You will not be disappointed

All 3 of our boys have been patients at Putnam Orthodontics and now have beautiful teeth! Our last one just got his braces off!! The doctors are excellent and all the office staff are wonderful. They have always worked with us getting appointments, even last minute, and the office is always very clean and comfortable. We highly recommended them!

Very professional and knowledgeable. Very little wait time I have always been taken in at appointment time or earlier. Staff is friendly and patience. My son is a nervous child and they always go above and beyond to make sure he is comfortable and has a good experience. I would definitely recommend Putnam Orthodontics.

Everyone at Putnam Orthodontics is very nice and welcoming, always. They were super flexible when I wanted to go from Invisalign to traditional braces. They always make sure to tell you what they will be doing and are so careful not to cause any extra pain besides what is out of their control when working inside your mouth. They have done a fantastic job with my teeth and I’m looking forward to getting my braces off sometime this summer! (They are also very generous with different payment options)

We love Putnam Orthodontics! They are very efficient, friendly, clean, and safe in this new world. My son actually enjoys coming here ;) Any time we need to come in for a bracket or wire change, Dr. Pai speaks with me himself—even on weekends and then the amazing office staff follows up. They care and you feel like you are always in good hands!

I’ve been a patient of Putnam Orthodontics for over a year now. My children go here as well. We switched from another orthodontic group, as the previous orthodontist was a nightmare. I work in healthcare and can tell you this office is top-notch. The staff go above and beyond to make you feel comfortable, the orthodontists are thorough, pleasant, accommodating, intelligent... And the office is immaculate. If you are considering an orthodontist, this is the place to go. They fixed my smile in the promised time and I’ve never been happier 😁

Went into the office for what should've been a simple procedure: having a permanent retainer removed and being fit for a new one. It turned out to be a giant waste of my time. First, I called the office several times to schedule an appointment. Each time I was put on hold for 5-10 minutes before deciding to hang up. I was finally able to get an appointment after four attempts at calling.

I got to the office 15 minutes early, as I was a new patient and expected to have to fill out forms. The receptionist was confused when I explained that I was new and told me I could take a seat, there

I have three boys only one out of the three needed braces. I went to Dr.Pia because so many people said he is wonderful. So we went talked with them and scheduled the appointment. We started off great but went down hill from there. My son knocked a bracket off a few times and they fixed it. The last time he knocked one off they told me i had to pay $50. I questioned it to the point i called another orthodontist office for help. The very nice women i spoke with said it sounds like he needs bumpers. I never was told that and considered switching.. but i didnt i kept saying one more time. So we go

We recently moved to the area from the city. Not only did our son need a new dentist, but we knew the reality of seeing an orthodontist for the first time was not far behind. We found Dr. Pai and - first off- the office is the most welcoming office we've ever been to! It's bright, colorful, and set my son (and me and my husband!) at ease immediately. The staff are very nice and attentive, and communicate and answer any questions we have. Since our first visit in June, our son has been progressing very well with the treatment recommended - first a night brace, and now we've just

My 15-year-old daughter was the first to get braces among my 4 children. I learned of Dr. Pai's new practice a little over a year ago and was happy to take advantage of a free evaluation and estimate for her teeth. Dr. Pai spent time going through my daughter's X-ray evaluation and photos and explained the needed steps and timeframe for the work to be done.

I was thrilled to learn that there was an affordable price structure in place to allow us to proceed with the work. He has a gorgeous office centrally located in Putnam County that makes it more like a spa appointment, not only
