PATIENT REVIEWS

I had my first consultation with Dr. White today, he was very professional and obviously very informed. His office had all of the latest technology and he is able to do what multiple other orthodontists haven’t been able to do with me – get me in Invisalign (and at 31, that’s a big plus! No one wants to be in their 30’s with braces). He did a comprehensive examination and consultation – he considered bite and alignment as well as bone density (something no one else even considered) when coming to a conclusion on whether or not I would qualify for Invisalign. His pricing was actually less than the other orthodontists pricing (had I even qualified for Invisalign with them). They offered two tubes of teeth whitener too as part of my treatment to ensure that I am fully happy with the results, which the other orthodontists said would be an additional cost. His staff was very knowledgeable and incredibly nice, as was Dr. White. Everyone had great bedside manner (is it still considered bedside manner at an orthodontist?), were able to answer any and all questions, and were really quick and efficient. Highly recommend based on my experience so far! I can’t wait to start my treatments!

The staff has been friendly and very good at making my 7 year old daughter feel comfortable. She was nervous and excited at the same time about getting braces. The assistant explained everything well and put her at ease. Dr. White is so cool and has a great report with people. He explains the procedure(s) in great detail and doesn’t overload the patient during their visit.

I’ve always wanted to try Invisalign because I have never been happy with my teeth and when I was younger I didn’t have the opportunity to get braces. So finally I was able to start this journey in February! I am sooo very happy with all the progress; I have completed 10/16 months so far, just had an appointment and I’m already basically done!! Just minor tweaks now. Wearing the aligners for the full 22 hours is key. I really kept up with it along with all the check ins, so I do believe that helped speed the process up by a lot. Everyone is always so friendly and welcoming at the Rocky River location and Dr. White is awesome! Really, truly, thank you soo very much to everyone who has worked with me on this ‘new’ smile journey. I couldn’t be happier with the results!

Dr. White is the best. All three of my kids had braces here- 2 Invisalign 1 traditional He is great with patients! He has/does a lot in house so wait time for things is less. His staff is always pleasant, happy, and helpful. I wouldn’t go anywhere else!

Everyone is super friendly and wants to make sure you feel comfortable. The doctors are wonderful and listen to you and explain the process simply. They are happy to answer any questions and the assistants are also all very knowledgeable. I’m the end they wanted to make sure that I was completely satisfied. They want to make sure your finish with the appropriate expectations you and they discussed from the start.

I knew that my 11 year old needed orthodontic work done, so after a long discussion he wanted to try Invisalign.  We had heard about this interactive walk-in available place and decided to give it a try.  We did schedule an appointment, but did it the night before and got a time that worked for us.  The staff there were very friendly and explained every thing they were doing to him.  Our first appointment was a scan and meeting with Dr. White to go over the treatment phase.  He was very personable and nice.  Afterwards another staff member explained pricing and financing options.  There was absolutely no pressure to sign up at that very instant, and that’s what I think I love the most.  They understand it is a big commitment, and sometimes families need to weight options.  We went ahead and signed up that day, signed some papers and went on our way.  They said it would take about 8 weeks to get his first treatment round in, but it only ended up taking about 4-5.  He went in once everything was in and they fit him in his first set (along with some other stuff placed on.  We are now being monitored ever week remotely and it is working out great.  Very happy with this doctor and office.

The entire staff is so sweet and makes you feel comfortable. Katie is very personable and answered every question I had. She explained everything to me step by step and made this experience for me as comfortable as possible. Dr. White was so caring, kind, compassionate and professional. I can’t wait to get my Invisalign retainers in and start my journey to a healthy, confident smile. This has been a lifelong goal of mine and at almost 35, I’m finally able to do it! Thank you Dr. White and Katie. You’ve all been so amazing to me and I’m looking forward to coming in again soon! I’ll be sure to tell everyone I come in contact with about you in Rocky River! 

Dr. White is such a wonderful doctor. He is extremely knowledgeable and puts the patient first! He has seen both of my children for a combined 6 years and has been monitoring them at no cost, giving me advice, but has yet to do any orthodontic work because he feels it’s best to wait for each of them until a few more things fall into place. He could take my money and have them in orthodontic equipment for a longer period (like other orthodontists were quick to recommend!), but instead chooses to wait for the ideal time for my children where what needs to be done will be quicker and more effective. I highly recommend Dr. White and have been thoroughly impressed at each visit!

Great practice. Not your typical orthodontist and I absolutely loved the culture. Seeing Happy employees be made me a very happy patient. No cost consultation earned my trust and their equipment is the most up to date I’ve ever seen. I’d recommend everyone visit Dr White and his staff. -Even if you have a longer drive. Thank you Dr White & Staff

I was very pleased with the time we spent at this office. My child is very uncomfortable with dentist however they made her feel comfortable and relaxed. They are very knowledgeable and create plans for all patients. The first visit is free and they created a plan for my daughter even though they did nor know I was going to go with them. They care about those who visit them and approach each patient as a client. No matter if it is there fist visit or 10th visit. They answered questions about two other children while I was there as well. They work with families that don’t have orthadantal coverage on their insurance plan. I have several other children that will need them and I will not think twice about taking them to Smiles by White. The technology and staff are great. They are easy to talk to and work with. I wish I know about them sooner.

Great experience. Dr. White and staff are excellent. I’d received another consult for invisalign, and that orthodontist recommended removing teeth to create additional space. However, Dr. White never suggested removing any teeth; in fact, he said that he preferred that patients keep all of their adult teeth whenever possible. The more, the better. From that moment, I knew I wanted to work with him, and I’ve had nothing but the best treatment from him and his team since. My treatments are almost done…and I’m very pleased.

I started my Invisalign treatment about a year ago. I was, frankly, skeptical, but wanted to at least improve my appearance as my teeth had begun to shift the past few years. To say that I am very happy with the results so far is an understatement. I’m a little more than halfway through the projected process and it’s like night and day already. Throw in the affordability factor and incredible friendliness and professionalism of the staff, my only regret is waiting a few years to finally ask my dentist what I could do, and he immediately recommended Dr. White. I HIGHLY recommend him.

My son has been seeing Dr. White and his staff for the past 7 years. I am happy to say after expanders, extractions etc. we finally are braces free at the age of 13!! Dr. White guided my son’s progress and because of the early care he received, he only spent 17 months in actual braces. His teeth are beautiful & he and I are 100% satisfied. Dr. White and his staff are very caring, knowledgeable and work as a team. My son really enjoyed the rewards program (points accumulated for taking care of braces, keeping appts., showing up on time etc.) and is looking forward to cashing them in for an awesome gift card! I appreciated the friendliness of the staff and their willingness to accommodate our schedules etc. We will continue to follow up with Dr. White to ensure this beautiful smile lasts forever! If you are looking for a talented, knowledgeable orthodontist for yourself or your child…Dr. White is highly recommended. You will not be disappointed!

Dr. White is undoubtedly the most professional and compassionate orthodontist! My experience at his Northfield office was as pleasant as can be, and this is all due to the friendly atmosphere and the positive attitude of Dr. White and all of his employees. All his equipment and technology is top of the line in order to provide patients the best care possible. Dr. White made it possible for me to complete my Invisalign treatment, even after I abandoned it months ago. When I came back into his office hoping to restart my treatment, I was expecting a lecture and disappointment. However, Dr. White was understanding and kind, and offered to restart my treatment free of charge! If you’re looking for a high-quality, professional, no-hassle orthodontist to start your Invisalign treatment or braces, look no further than Dr. White! He will make sure you get the smile you deserve, and you’ll definitely get your money’s worth.

I am a new patient in Dr White’s office and I have been so impressed by not only the knowledge and professionalism of the staff, but the friendliness and timely manner every interaction is done with. I would highly recommend anyone thinking about going through the process to go in for a free consultation and see the personalized results they project for you and your plan. Right from the first visit, I felt welcomed and valued as a new patient in the practice. Thank you Dr White!

I had gone to another orthodontist before Dr. White looking to get Invisalign. The other one told me he would have to remove one of my front bottom teeth and push them together for me to get Invisalign. I 100% was not going to do that so I went to Dr. White. I am currently waiting to get my first trays for Invisalign and will not be getting any teeth removed. Everyone in his office has been super nice. His daughter works in his office and is also one of the nicest people. 10/10 would recommend.

I was very pleased from beginning to end with Smiles. They were thorough and explained things straight to the point, no hidden terms or conditions so I knew exactly what I would be getting into if I proceeded to go through with treatment for my son through them. I am proud to say after visiting with three different orthodontist, my search is over and I will be proceeding with treatment through Dr. White.

From the first consult and throughout the entire process Smiles By White’s services were exemplary. My first meeting was at the Northfield office. Dr. White was in his Rocky River office and we met virtually. That experience was new to me but it was excellent. He was able to effectively diagnose, advise and devise an Invisalign solution. The tech first scanned my teeth and uploaded them. Dr. White was able to see the scans immediately and he was able to begin designing the solution at that first meeting. He showed me what my smile would look like when he was done. I went back in a few weeks later to get my first set of slingers. The tech bonded little nubs on my teeth that are used by the aligners to push my teeth where they needed to go. The tech was terrific. She took time to explain the process in great detail and make sure I understood. They use a phone app for weekly monitoring of my progress. Once a week I would use the app and my phone’s camera to scan my teeth. Then Dr. White would review and advise me when I could proceed to the next set of aligners. This went on until I reached the end of the aligners at about 6 months. Then I went back into the office for a scan and to discuss next steps. I was given another, shorter series of aligners. Maybe 12 weeks or so. Then another in office scan and my final 7 weeks of aligners. On each office visit I was listened to and great care was taken to make sure I was happy with the progress. All in all it took about 14 months. Throughout I was very happy with the service, the responsiveness and most importantly the result.

Dr. whites office is the most professional office I’ve been to. The staff is excellent and I always feel so welcome. They all know exactly what they’re doing. I’ve tried to get invisilign before with another dentist and he didn’t sound very confident he could get my teeth straight so of course I put it off. One day I hear about dr. White on the radio and thought I’d give it a try! I went for my initial consultation and right away they sounded super confident that they couldn’t get my teeth exactly how I wanted them! He didn’t stop until I was satisfied. I had my trays for about three years and they took excellent care of me the entire time! i recommended my sister in law and she feels the same way I do. So thankful i found Dr. White. He works miricals. I would recommend him to anyone and everyone!!!

Dr. White and his staff have been great with my son from the consultation to current. It’s been a little over a year and my sons teeth look great! He is using the Invisalign and just moved to the second tier of trays that are like retainers worn for 12hrs/day. My next son will be having a consultation soon!!

I found Dr. white through many, many recommendations via social media! His staff is EXCELLENT!!!! The Invisalign process is incredibly easy and straight forward. Dr.white is super knowledgeable and friendly. I’m so happy I listened to everyone!

The staff was helpful and kind. Dr. White took his time to discuss each of our children in detail. We felt like we had his full attention and that he truly cared about their very best outcome. He even took the time to answer ANY and ALL questions from our children, even funny ones. He truly earned the trust of our kiddos. For us, it’s a very long drive to the office. Frankly I’d drive farther to have that kind of quality care! The entire staff helped us to feel confident in our choice. During our drive home we all talked about how amazing the experience was, and how relieved we are to have made this choice! Thank You!

Dr White definitely lives up to his reputation! My son appreciated how he talked to him the whole time, explaining things to him (not me) really respecting him and engaging so well!! And yes, very knowledgeable in his skill and very thorough! The whole staff was wonderful to interact with!

I cannot say enough great things about Dr. White and his staff. From my first appointment, to now, halfway through my first round of treatment, I have been treated like family from every single staff member. They care about me as a person, not only my treatment plan. I can truly say I love going to the orthodontist! They are quick, effective, but thorough for every appointment!

Dr.John White’s office is very clean and well maintained. All the workers were super welcoming and has great customer service. Brittney especially did a great job making sure I was comfortable during the procedure and helping me know how to thoroughly take care of my braces. I 10/10 would recommend this doctors office!!

Dr. John White is the most wonderful man and truly an amazing Orthodontist. After years of stained and crooked teeth, he never made me feel ashamed and always remained optimistic despite the extensive dental work I needed before being treated by his practice in 2010. His team is excellent and do not miss a detail. Many times Dr. White went above and beyond to give me the best care possible, and it’s no wonder his reputation precedes him as one of the best in his field. The office is very welcoming and kid-friendly, not to mention catering to teenagers and adults. His consultation was thorough and personable, and he made sure I understood (as the patient) exactly what his plan was. Within two years I had straight teeth, and my face was totally transformed. I still have the retainer from 2011 when I got my braces off, and it has helped to keep my teeth exactly as they were. Dr. White made me look and feel like a million bucks and I would give him 10 stars if I could.

You can’t beat Dr White and his staff. First class, the latest equipment and a great price. This is what they do and they go above and beyond. I just completed my treatment and could not be happier. Don’t settle and go somewhere else and hope to get it right. He will get it right. Thank you! Greg

Amazing first visit my son left with a smile! After being told he was not a good fit for Invisalign from another orthodontist I started searching for another opinion. I scheduled a meeting with the doctor here and was told he is a perfect fit and the process would be painless for my child and the time would be considerably less than traditional braces. Every question I had was answered everything was just perfect!

Dr. White has both a highly scientific and well researched understanding of orthodontics and seems, in my opinion, to better understand Invisalign in an intuitive way than others in the practice. He offers free evaluations and they are very quick…40 minutes…and you leave knowing everything needed to make a decision on whether the treatment plan is right for you. Highly recommend & have told friends/family about the experience!

The staff and Dr. White make the visit feel like a social engagement, and the level of professionalism coupled with knowledge and a genuine sense of aesthetic understanding about what braces should do for someone is comforting. I am not the first person in my family to receive premium service from Dr. White, so I have seen results and expect mine to be just as great when this is all finished.

The BEST !! Dr. White is honestly the best all around! He’s very very generous and amazing at doing his job! And so are his coworkers. While i’m there i’ve seen him with kids and he’s always making them laugh! I’ve been going to his office’s for about 6-7 years now and i wouldn’t want to go anywhere else!

After consulting with two other orthodontists, both of whom tried to convince me to do traditional braces over Invisalign, I finally decided to consult with Dr. White. Dr. White was confident he could straighten my teeth with Invisalign and that I would be happy with the results. I am BEYOND thrilled with the results! My experience working with him and his team was very pleasant. They are all friendly, timely and considerate. The process was much more comfortable than traditional braces, which I had as a kid, and very easy to comply with. Dr. White always took the time to make sure I was happy with the process and my final results. The icing on the cake was the look on my traditional dentist’s face when he compared my x-rays to my teeth…he was amazed! Thank you Dr. White and team, I finally have the smile I’ve been hoping for for years!

I cannot say enough great things about Dr. White and his staff. From my first appointment, to now, halfway through my first round of treatment, I have been treated like family from every single staff member. They care about me as a person, not only my treatment plan. I can truly say I love going to the orthodontist! They are quick, effective, but thorough for every appointment!

I’ve been a patient of Dr. John White for many years. I completed my Invisalign treatment a couple years ago and now have a retainer I wear nightly. I could not say more good things about my years going to the office for my treatment of Invisalign, but just recently needed to contact them for a new retainer after getting some dental work done. They promptly returned my call and made me an appointment to get new impressions made right away. Everything was completed and I received a new retainer within a 48 hour time frame, which is time sensitive for your teeth’s movement. I can say as a past patient, they treated me with the same professionalism and kindness that I received during my treatment years. I would recommend anyone looking for Invisalign care to Dr. John White and his staff.
