Son needs an orthodontist- who does everyone use? Would like to stay somewhat close- thanks
Steve S. replied:
Dr. Charles Canepa in RR. Awesome staff and facility.
Erin A. replied:
Thomas Dimassa - either westlake or Lakewood office
Michelle K. replied:
My husband (when an adult) went to DiMasa he is good but pricier. My son goes to Kaufmann offices in Westlake on Detroit across from Giant Eagle and office Avon. Happy with both. Kaufman's office is gentler with billing and price it seems. Personally ask your dentist. Our dentist recommended DiMasa for my husband and Kaufman for my son.
Tiffany S. replied:
I love Dr. Liller in Westlake. They are virtually painless when they give novocaine and the staff is really nice.
Libby S. replied:
Dr. Canepa in RR!
Stacey D. replied:
Dr Ballrick. My son loves them up there! I've been impressed with their progress, too.

Dennis Ward in Avon lake is the best! Very knowledgeable, friendly and accommodating !
I am looking for an orthodontist to take my kids too. Any suggestions?
Amanda M. replied:
Dr Canepa on Detroit Rd in River is great!
Mary M. replied:
Dr. Ballrick at St. John's Westshore. He is awesome. His Dad was an orthodontist, and his brother is a dentist.

I recommend Ward Orthodontics, 36422 Detroit Rd, Avon, OH 440-934-0840. We are down to our last child going through the process and really like and agree with Dr. Kevin Ward's philosophy and timing on braces. He is very bright, young, professional and has a very nice assistant. His father is also an orthodontist. The best advice is to visit several, don't sign up until you feel comfortable with who you choose because it is a long, expensive process. Also, if you like your dentist, they see the results of all the orthodontists around this area, he or she would give you an educated opinion.

Dr. Canepa! In Rocky River across from St Chris. My husband and I went to him as adults, and 2 of our three kids go to him too!
Kimberly S. replied:
Definitely Dr. Canepa!! Great price and even better service! Ballrick was old when I went to him in high school. LOL!
Maura O. replied:
Dr. Ward! He was the best. My son needed braces when he was younger too but he wouldn't put them on him. He measured his bone structure and said if he put braces on him he'd have to redo him when he got his grown-up mouth so he got them as a sophomore in high school. A boy in my sons class at St. Raphael's who got braces too early and got TMJ. My son is 23 and maybe protocols of changed but just something to maybe ask about?
Allison L. replied:
Dr Canepa on Detroit in rocky river. He's who we refer to most!
Does anyone have suggestions on orthodontists? We have seen OConnor and Balrick for consultations and like them both. I have had no experience with braces, so this...
Stacey M. replied:
Dr Neal Kaufman. In Westlake and Avon. By far the best we met with.
Janet W. replied:
Dr Oconner did all 3 of my kids
Mary W. replied:
Dr. Canepa did both Julia's and Rikki's braces. Loved him and his staff:)
Eileen V. replied:
Dr. Kozar in Bay
Christine D. replied:
Following! We have seen the same dentist forever and the orthodontist out of the same office does not work with Guardian dental which is what we now have. Looking for someone that is in network with Guardian.
Looking for recommendations for an orthodontist for my 13 year old. Thanks!
Kristen D. replied:
Kate Kelly in Westlake. She is also a dentist so we kill two birds with one stone by seeing her!
Lisa B. replied:
Dr Dimassa:) 2 of my children went to him and also myself. He is awesome.
Samantha J. replied:
our previous pediatric dentist did not believe in phase one-except for a few cases! he did recommend pulling some baby teeth to allow for adult teeth more space as they came in. Currently we are at Dr. Crowell--in Avon Lake, also has a dentist office. Just put braces on one 6500..but we chose clear on top which were $500 more. I would get free consults from all.
Marie Z. replied:
Dr Dimassa, already had one there and the second goes next week, several cousins too
anybody have a good recommendation for an orthodontist? I have already had braces but my wisdom teeth have moved my teeth greatly and I want a second opinion. thank...
Susan G. replied:
We had good results with Dr. Dimassa
Janet J. replied:
I'm doing Invisalign with Dr. Gravino for the same problem. It's working great, and doesn't hurt nearly as much as braces!
