Minnah And Korn Orthodontics
Nithya Minnah, DMD:
Practice Profile Page

I can not recommend Dr Minnah enough!! I’m an adult patient with some needed repairs for my permanent retainer. The office was extremely home-y (as opposed to generically clinical). The practice has a patient coordinator who genuinely wants to make your life easier (handling claims, makes sure you understand a charge before they move forward with a procedure, etc.) I am a service designer by profession and have never been super blown away by orthodontia — until Dr. Minnah’s office! Would HIGHLY recommend.

This review is only for Dr Minnah! I saw her back in 2015. As a foreign student with no dental insurance at the time, I was so relieved to find her. Thorough, pleasant, competent, she listened to my situation and carefully explained my options. I needed urgent help, and though there was no chance of me being a repeat patient anyways, she still made sure I would pay as little as possible. Couldn’t recommend her more.

Dr. Minnah is extremely knowledgable and professional. She is excellent at explaining the steps necessary to complete my son’s orthodontic care. The staff and the office environment is very welcoming. I would highly recommend Dr. Minnah to anyone seeking orthodontic care.

I have had the pleasure of working for Dr. Minnah, as well as being her current patient. I left the Minnah & Korn Orthodontics (MKO) team in 2019 to pursue dental school, and have since been under Invisalign treatment from her. As an aspiring dentist, Dr. Minnah has been the best mentor and role model. The way she conducts every aspect of her practice is through the lens of compassion for patients. I have seen her go out of the way to ensure each patient is comfortable with their orthodontic appliances – even if that means coming into the office on a holiday – this is also true of the entire MKO team. As an assistant, I had the ‘behind the scenes’ look at how she plans her treatment for every patient. She thoroughly studies each patient’s case and always looks for the most effective, conservative approach. She will not have you in braces a day longer than you need them! To say she is detail-oriented would be an understatement – from following up with patients to recognizing a tooth needs to move distally 1mm, you can be confident Dr. Minnah and her team will provide you with the best orthodontic experience. As a patient, I have seen great results in just a few months. I have not been able to get to the office because of the pandemic, but her staff has been very flexible and accommodating to ensure my treatment is on track. Although it would probably be easier to receive treatment from an orthodontist located closer to me, I know I will not receive better treatment than I am from MKO

Dr. Minnah is absolutely fantastic! My experience with her and her team was nothing short of amazing. She and her staff are A+++, very personable, and always made me feel welcomed. My reason for treatment was one problem tooth that teenage braces weren’t able to fix, and some general shifting from not wearing a retainer after getting the braces off. After consulting with Dr. Minnah, I decided to undergo Invisalign treatment with some fairly unique custom adjustments that Dr. Minnah was willing to make for my particular case. She was extremely informative, caring, and professional throughout the process. I’m pretty detail oriented and ask many questions, but she always took the time to explain every step and make sure I was comfortable. Her work was tremendously successful and I could not be more pleased with both the process and result. If you are considering any type of orthodontic work, I give Dr. Minnah my highest possible endorsement! You will not be disappointed!

I have loved my time with Dr. Minnah Orthodontics. Everybody in the office is very friendly and Dr. Minnah has done a great job straightening my teeth using behind-the-teeth Lingual braces. I’m about six months into the process, and have had a really great experience. I definitely recommend her!

I absolutely adore Dr Minnah! Both my son and myself have been with Dr Korn for orthodontic care for several years and when he retired we met with Dr Minnah. Initially I was worried we would never get the kind of care we received from Dr Korn but I am blown away! Her knowledge and skill is only superceded by her kindness and compassion. I highly recommend seeing Dr Minnah for any orthodontic care!

I went into Dr. Minnahs office because I was grinding my teeth at night, and having chronic headaches along with muscle tightness in my neck. I had been dealing with these symptoms my whole life but it got to the point where I couldn’t take it anymore. When I walked in I was greeted with her wonderful team and automatically felt welcome. Dr. Minnah showed me several technics to help me unclench my jaw. At first I was quite skeptical, but once I did them consistently in less then a week I noticed that I was no longer waking up with headaches. I showed my father who also suffered with grinding his teeth and he too felt a million times better. I would highly recommend Dr. Minnah to anyone. Without a doubt one of the best things I could have done for myself.

Highly recommend Dr. Minnah and the team there. I wanted to get lingual braces for a while and consulted with about 10 orthodontists in NYC and Boston before choosing Dr. Minnah, and I’m extremely happy with my decision. This is what you get from her – (1) patience and understanding, (2) quality staff, (3) someone that could talk to adults, (4) very professional service, (5) high quality results. I had lingual braces on for a little over a year, and (1) had no speech issues (except for the first couple days to adapt), and (2) no one noticed that I had them on. I got the results that I wanted (bite correction and straight teeth) without anyone knowing that I had the braces. I’m an active adult in his early 30s that works in finance and travels a lot for work and pleasure. I could not have asked for a better solution with a better doctor.

I highly recommend Minnah and Korn Orthodontics and do so based on two generations of experience. I was a patient (as an adult) of Dr. Korn many years ago, and my daughter is now a patient of Dr. Minnah. If you are considering orthodontic treatment, either for your child or as an adult, you simply will not find a more experienced, capable and genuinely caring practice anywhere. If you have a complicated orthodontic problem or suffer from Temporal Mandibular Joint (TMJ) pain, Dr. Minnah and Dr. Korn are so exceptionally experienced and qualified that no other practice comes close to their expertise and success in treatment. In my case, even with braces as a teenager, I had severe TMJ pain for most of my adult life. A year prior to being recommended to Dr. Korn, I was in treatment while living outside of Massachusetts and scheduled for surgery that would have separated and repositioned sections of my jaw to resolve the malocclusion causing my TMJ problems. This apparently is a commonly accepted practice when, in fact, it turned out to be completely unnecessary in my case. When I returned to the Boston area, my dentist suggested that I have a consultation with Dr. Korn. It was the best decision that I’ve ever made with regard to my health. Dr. Korn did a thorough workup of my case, and he recommended a non-surgical treatment plan that incorporated jaw repositioning appliances that he has developed over many years of research and practice. The result was that I avoided surgery altogether. Most importantly, since the completion of my treatment many years ago, I’ve never had a relapse of TMJ pain. When my daughter was recently evaluated by our regular dentist with a significant overbite and an adult tooth that had become impacted in her jaw, it was a clear choice as to which orthodontics practice to choose. We couldn’t be happier with the analysis and treatment program that Dr. Minnah is providing. She took all the time necessary to develop an exceptionally detailed and well-considered treatment plan, educated us on my daughter’s situation, and offered for our consideration a recommendation based on several options that best fit my daughter’s situation as well as our resources and timing. We have absolutely complete confidence in Dr. Minnah and everyone at the office goes out of their way to accommodate our schedule and work with us to make the treatment easy and convenient. With an impacted adult tooth to manage along with a significant adjustment to her bite, my daughter’s treatment plan required considerable expertise to take everything into to account. Now, six months into her treatment, she’s is making fantastic progress and we both couldn’t be happier with the choice that we made.
