I can't thank Mr Hardy and his staff members enough! I've had a canine tooth for over 15 years that has caused my to be embarrass to smile for years! I've finally got my braces on 2 years ago and now just had them taken off. My smile is perfect! No complaints! I'm able to smile with confidence! They changed my smile forever. They definitely have the price price around Columbus. Very reasonable/affordable. No regrets at all!

From the first time we walked in for the consultation we loved this place. The staff is friendly and we just felt comfortable. They recognize new patients by putting their name "in lights". Top notch orthodontic office. So glad we chose them.

I love my new smile! Dr. Hardy was very professional and did a great job! Appointments were easy to make and worked well with my work and school schedule. The office was always nice and clean. My only complaint is with the front staff. During my initial consultation they were very unprofessional about my eligibility status since I was 24 at the time and still on my parent's insurance plan. They seemed surprised I was still able to receive orthodontic services and I overheard them gossiping quietly so. Otherwise, I would highly recommend Hardy Orthodontics.
