Lauren L. replied:
Dr. Kemp
Jo H. replied:
De Mappes is the best!
Codi J. replied:
Dr Mappes in Bellevue! I loved him! Also the staff was wonderful!
Suzy R. replied:
We consulted with Dr. Mappes and Dr. Burr, both in Dickson. We liked both of them. They both do payment plans. Dr. Burr was a little cheaper. Dr. Burr explained things a lot more than Dr. Mappes. We chose Dr. Burr because my daughter seemed to make a better connection with him. Also, she has a molar that is coming in sideways. Dr. Burr said that he can put a bracket on it and straightened it. Dr. Mapped said he would pull it.
Leah K. replied:
Dr. Ferguson out in Cool springs
Fonda A. replied:
Dr Lucas is amazing! He's in bell Meade and also in Franklin. All 3 of my kids have had braces with him & absolutely loved him!!!
Dena S. replied:
I am dental assistant with 25+years experience. Dr Sjursen ( Dr Bob) is the best I have seen. I met him at Vanderbilt as the second in charge in the ortho clinic, and followed him, with my daughter's tx, into his own practice in Franklin on Hillsboro R d. across from Fieldstone Farms.He is supper personable and honest. I have refered many to him and they have loved him. Check out His website.He is great at staying in communication with your regular dentist.
Katrina M. replied:
Dr. Mappes - has office in Bellevue and in Dickson. Nicest man ever - won't put people in braces that don't need it and has a great payment plan if they do.
Karen P. replied:
Dr. Chad Fowler on Hwy. 96 west in Franklin. He and his assistants are wonderful. They also do fun contests during the year and he gives out funny money at each visit if the patients are doing well with taking care of their teeth. Funny money can be traded in for gift cards.
Kristen B. replied:
We love Dr. Fowler!
Tammy D. replied:
Dr. Burr in Dickson is my daughters orthodontist. He is awesome. Check out www.burrorthodontics.com.

Holley F. replied:
Mappes Orthodontics!!!!
Holley F. replied:
Dena Sue Seymour Smith I must agree also! I can speak very well of Dr. Sjursen as well as Dr. Mappes. You can't go wrong with either one. Take it from me I've worked for 3 of the main Orthodontists mentioned here & currently for both of these guys separately. So come see me! MY BEST ADVICE: Stick to an Experienced ORTHODONTIST for orthodontics!!!!!!!!!!!

Dr. Gluck...
Fran C. replied:

Courtney S. replied:
Dr. Lucas is Belle Meade!
Andrea B. replied:
Dr. Mappes is the best. He's in Bellvue and has a satellite in Dickson. Our 13 and 16 year olds love him!
Dr Robert Hendricks at Brentwood Dental Specialists......he is the best.
Julie S. replied:
We use Dr Hendricks at Brentwood Dental Specialist. Zero pressure to start too early and prices were reasonable.
Teressa G. replied:
I would never recommend Snodgrass and king for anything We've had a great experience for Dr Lucas
Amy W. replied:
Kemp and Lucas gave us a similar treatment plan for Seth, but Kemp was $1000 more.
Maria W. replied:
We are also very happy with Dr. Fowler. Also had a very bad experience with Snodgrass/King.
Katy W. replied:
Fowler! Hated Snodgrass!
Garry C. replied:
I have heard good things about Dr. Fowler. He goes to church with me and is a very nice guy. Great with kids and teens. Our kids used Dr. Kemp but that was prior to Dr. Fowler opening. Dr. Kemp was good with them.

Dr. Barbieri. http://barbieriortho.com/
Meg R. replied:
We have had good exerperiences at both Kemp and S&K. I've heard bad things about S&K, too, but we've always had positive experiences at both places. I will say that at S&K, the ortho is a separate unit from the pediatric dental. W really likes Dr. Marion there. C goes to Dr.Kemp and likes it.
Suggestions/recommendations on local orthodontists?
Julie K. replied:
Dr. Gerald Ritter in Brentwood is amazing.

Dr. Sjursen. He has been an amazing orthodontist to my three older sons. Fourth son will definitely need braces as soon as he loses all his baby teeth.

Hal R. replied:
I've reached out to Dr. John Stroop, an elder at our church. He's a very experienced orthodontist, and either he or a colleague may be able to help. His office number is 770-410-0788.
Hal R. replied:
I've also reached out to a good friend, Dr. Jeff Rodgers. We'll find someone.
Hi! I am in search of a dentist in the Franklin area. I have heard a lot of good things about Dr. Kemp, but am not sure if he is solely an orthodontist. Can anyone tell...

Ben T. replied:
We use Hillsboro Orthodontist in the Publix shopping center on Fieldstone Parkway. Very good.
Deborah L. replied:
John got his right there by Publix and we know many others who have -- so far so good. And so convenient!!!! Dr. Sjursen.
Megan H. replied:
Dr. Sjursen has taken good care of several good friends of ours, and is where Zach is for his braces. Location, right next to Bricks and Publix, is huge too, especially when there is a wire poking and they see him right away for a quick adjustment.
Tiffany F. replied:
our dentist, Dr. McNutt, in green hills does ortho too. I think he's reasonable and does a good job!
Lea C. replied:
Both Campbell kids are with Dr. Lucas and really pleased.

Dr. Fowler is wonderful - both girls had braces with him. Can't say enough good things!
Scott H. replied:
Dr. Fowler is great and way more reasonable cost wise. At least when we called around a couple of years ago he was.

Ellen B. replied:
Harpeth Pediatrics
Carol M. replied:
Brentwood Children's Clinic. Bram Pinkley for the male. Christina Lohse for the female. Both excellent!! We see Pinkley, but Lohse is our backup so we've seen both. Love, love, love Pinkley! And, more importantly, so do all three of my kids!
Anyone have an orthodontist in Franklin area they really like? That is NOT Brentwood Dental Specialists?
Robin C. replied:
Dr Ferguson in franklin
Kathy G. replied:
Fowler Orthodontics is on Hwy. 96W ~ Jordan's teeth turned out beautifully.
Omar H. replied:
Agreed - Brentwood Dental Specialists has zero customer service. Very competent, but robots.
Robin C. replied:
Smaller office and very nice. But I never went after the initial stuff because Zac was 18 or 19 and always just took himself. He is very matter of fact!
Ginny D. replied:
Hillsboro Orthodontics in Fieldstone - Dr. Robert Sjursen
Jonathan D. replied:
We like Dr. Fowler. He didn't immediately try to put our kids in braces like Kemp did. Not saying Kemp is bad - but we felt Fowler was much more conservative with his approach
