Services
Invisalign Treatment
Invisalign treatment uses custom clear aligners to gradually straighten teeth without traditional braces. This removable system is ideal for mild to moderate orthodontic issues. Patients appreciate the discreet appearance and convenience of this modern orthodontic solution.
Clear Braces
Clear braces offer a less visible alternative to metal braces using tooth-colored ceramic brackets. This treatment option combines effectiveness with aesthetic appeal for patients seeking a more discreet orthodontic solution.
Metal Braces
Metal braces remain the most effective solution for complex orthodontic cases. Modern designs feature smaller brackets and colorful elastic options that make this classic treatment more comfortable and customizable.
Orthodontics for All Ages
We provide age-specific orthodontic care for children, teens, and adults. Our two-phase treatment approach ensures optimal results at every developmental stage, from early intervention to comprehensive adult orthodontics.
Sleep Apnea Solutions
Our practice offers customized oral appliances for treating sleep apnea and snoring. These comfortable, non-invasive solutions help improve breathing during sleep and enhance overall quality of life.

Very Frustrated! Had to cancel an appointment due to an illness and was informed first available appointments are 8+weeks out. This puts my child in braces for extra time. this was blamed on staffing shortages. If you don't have the staff you need don't take on new clients. 8 weeks out as the earliest available for a braces adjustment is not acceptable!

We've had both kids go there.they are the most professional dental or medical practice I have ever seen and they always think of the kids first. The hygienists are superb and Dr. Thacker is a TRUE gem.they do not make them like him anymore.his interest and care with each child is remarkable. This is best decision we made when it came to dental and ortho care for our family and you won't be disappointed. Just the best in the business.

They did such an amazing job with myself and my sibling back in the 90's, and then my niece in the last few years, I won't trust anyone else with my kid's mouth and teeth. The staff is always friendly and helpful that my kid is at ease when she is there.

We had 2 kids go through braces with DrThacker. He and his daughter who is also Dr T were amazing. Totally kid friendly, kind and a totally wonderful outcome for both of my kids! I tell all my friends to shop no more and just go here. My kids felt very well cared for and it was a great experience all around. Also, the dentist just told me their teeth are perfect. (And both my kids had functional issues versus cosmetic). Win/win! Thank you Drs Thacker!

We're not patients, but while visiting family in Cincinnati my son had a problem with his braces. I was very impressed by how helpful the receptionist and doctor were when I called to ask if I could bring him in to get it fixed. They offered to see him, but gave us enough advice that I was able to decide the issue could wait until we get home to Canada. Very professional and friendly.
