I am completely blown away with Dr. Runnels and his incredible staff for helping me achieve my dream smile with Invisalign. From the moment of my consultation to getting my retainers today, I had nothing but the best customer service. I was originally told by a different orthodontist that I wouldn't be able to achieve a straight smile along with an even bite with Invisalign, but with Dr. Runnels expert knowledge of Invisalign and top of the line equipment he was able to do just that! I highly recommend his office for all of your orthodontics needs.

Dr. Runnels did my Invisalign treatment years ago, and now both my husband and daughter are patients too. His office staff is always really great to work with and the office is always clean! We are one happy family of patients with beautiful smiles!

My experience with Dr. Runnels has been pretty incredible. I walked into his Ortho Office location, Inlet Beach, in October 2019 for an Invisalgn Consultation. His entire Staff was warm, welcoming and very capable. I received my Invisalagn trayers and within months my coworkers noticed the change in my smile. Now, a year later and I am in the convenient Destin Office for a Final Consultation (October 2020).
I absolutely LOVE my smile. Oh! Did I mention that after your first consultation, virtual visits can be arranged. 2020 has been a bizarre year for many but for my smile, it has been nothing less than OUTSTANDING! Thank you to Dr. Runnels and his Staff!
