"Dr. Farina and staff are 10/10!! Wading through Invisalign and additional dental work the Farina team remained in constant communication with my extended dental team and my results are insane! I cannot say enough good things about Farina Orthodontics. Special love to the team out at Bruce B. Downs - they handled 90% of my care and made everything simple and efficient!"

"Dr. Franco at Farina Orthodontics was wonderful!! I went to Farina for Invisalign, after another orthodontist did not successfully complete my treatment. Dr. Franco took the time to meet with me, review my treatment, and ensure that he knew exactly what I expected for my teeth. Each time I went to Farina, he greeted me with a friendly personality and made sure everything was going to plan. I am grateful for Dr. Franco and the great staff they have at the Swann location - thank you for helping me with my smile! :)"

"I had orthodontic treatment here as an adult and had excellent results! Dr. Farina was able to treat my specific case with Invisalign when other orthodontists told me it was not possible with Invisalign alone. I just brought my daughter here the other day to start her treatment and she loves her Invisalign. Office is always clean, appointments are quick, and everyone is very friendly. Cost is reasonable with 0% in house financing. Best orthodontist around!"

"So far my experience with Farina orthodontics has been great. The staff and Dr. Farina have been kind and have great customer service. I look forward to completing my treatment with them. I will be back with an update and photos once I am complete :) !Update: I am so pleased with the outcome of my treatment! My teeth are sooo straight. Now I love smiling even more than before! The entire process was smooth. Dr. Farina made everything easy. He allowed me to have a virtual consultation which I was so grateful for as it saved me a lot of time. He was prompt and is extremely knowledgeable I can firmly say. The environment of the office is really positive. Front desk is also kind and attentive. I am happy to have been referred here and would highly recommend Dr. Farina to anyone looking to straighten their teeth. Thank you to Dr. Farina and staff for taking care of me."

Dr. Farina has been there to watch our son grow and change over the two years he has had braces and is so supportive, not only with the braces but also being a doctor that cares about each patient as a person. Dr Farina always takes time with his patients and families. The assistants are very understanding and caring and are always ready to answer questions. I highly recommend Farina."

"I continue to be impressed by the friendliness of the staff and the quality of service we receive at Farina Orthodontics. I am always greeted by name and feel welcomed. I am very impressed by the continued care my child receives. Both of my children have have been patients of Dr. Farina and both of them had very serious issues. Dr Farina is amazing. My daughter's smile is beautiful. Prior to seeing Dr Farina other orthodontists wanted to pull teeth. Dr Farina was able to correct her teeth without pulling any teeth. Her smile is beautiful! At the last visit Dr Farina told me that had my son gone to a different Dr they would not have been able to help my son. It is amazing how much progress he had made. We still have a way to go but his smile is improving so much. Thank you Dr Farina, Thank you Also to all the staff."

"I went to Dr. Farina with a problem caused by TMJ surgery . I was unable to fully chew my food because my bite was so bad/off. Dr. Farina explained the entire process and with each visit I saw more and more progress to bring my teeth in alignment. It took a 1-1/2 years but the results are superb. Dr. Farina and his staff do outstanding work and they are so personable....always cheery and have a positive attitude. They are also VERY ACCOMODATING.. on more than one occasion I had to go in for a broken wire, always at the most inopportune time (a Saturday or late Friday). I highly recommend Farina Orthodontics!!"

"Dr. Farina and his staff are friendly and professional. I enjoyed the "cozy" feel of the office as opposed to larger "machine-like" practices. Dr. Farina carefully explained all of the orthodontic options for our son in terms we could understand so that we could make an informed decision about his orthodontic treatment. I especially like that Dr. Farina uses cutting edge technology in his practice. Dr. Farina really took the time to try to get to know our son to make him feel comfortable about orthodontic treatment. We were especially excited to learn that Invisaline Teen is an option! Two separate families recommended Dr. Farina to us, both saying how much they "LOVE Dr. Farina" and how happy they have all been with their new beautiful smiles. I certainly feel we will be recommending Dr. Farina to anyone seeking beautiful teeth!"
