About

Brian R. DeGise, D.D.S., P.C.

Dr. DeGise specializes in the field of orthodontics, in which he will fix improper bite problems (i.e. cross bites, overbites, etc.) as well as creating a beautiful smile that will last you a lifetime. Dr. DeGise's main interest in the field of dentistry, specifically orthodontics, was based on his own personal experience as a child playing hockey. During one game he was hit in the mouth with a puck and lost two teeth. He was fortunate to have an excellent dentist who helped restore his smile’s function and appearance. Then after wearing braces for several years, Dr. DeGise knew that he wanted to become an orthodontist. DeGise Orthodontics starts seeing patients around the age of 7 to start preventative work, reducing the need for extractions and surgical corrections in the future, as well as patients of all ages whether they are teenagers or adults.

They made sure every single question I had was answered, and are always available if I think of any more questions I want answered as they have a 24/7 emergency line as well. Their staff is the most friendly, welcoming staff I've ever dealt with. They are so warm and professional, and make the whole experience that much better. I was so impressed with the progress I was able to make after visiting them. All my questions were answered, and I feel a lot more confident and hopeful about the future. Their office is AMAZING. Surf boards on the walls, free wifi for the adults, ipads for the kids, xbox and wii for the teens and movies playing throughout the office. My kids keep asking when we can go back to the 'doctor' so they can play in the office!!
