Robyn W.
I had a great experience at Carolina Braces today! Aliyah was amazing from start to finish. I got checked in, sat down for maybe two minutes, and she was already coming to get me. I was very indecisive about what color I wanted for my braces, but Aliyah took the time to help me choose. In the end, I absolutely LOVE the color we picked, so thank you, Ms. Aliyah! The doctor and Aliyah both made me feel comfortable asking questions and sharing my preferences. They listened to what I wanted while also educating me on what would be best for my treatment. They truly made me feel heard and involved in the process. One thing I always look forward to is flossing during my visits, and Aliyah was so patient with me. She let me take my time and never made me feel rushed, even though I know they have many patients to see throughout the day. Thank you so much, Aliyah, for your kindness, patience, and excellent care. You made this visit a wonderful experience!

“I had a great experience at this orthodontic office. The staff is always welcoming, professional, and attentive from the moment you walk in. The office is clean, organized, and appointments are efficient with little to no wait time. The orthodontist takes the time to explain treatment options and answer any questions, which makes the entire process feel comfortable and stress-free. I truly appreciate the level of care and customer service I’ve received and would highly recommend this office to anyone considering orthodontic treatment.

It was my 2nd round of wearing braces and both times I chose to go through this process with Dr. Kent and his team. Dr. Kent gave me a beautiful smile 9 years ago that lasted for many years until I made a mistake of wearing a retainer that I accidentally banded. I’m really glad that Dr. Kent and his team continue helping their patients like myself to achieve the smile that makes them proud and gives great sense of confidence. Dr. Kent has a fantastic team, both at the front and in the back of the office. Lacey (apologies if I misspelled the name) took charge during my first appointment when my braces were put on. She took time making me feel comfortable and made a great suggestion for the color of the bands (pearl) that I kept on wearing throughout my journey this time. Emily went above and beyond to ensure that all of the final appointments right before my wedding were scheduled to accommodate my busy schedule. Jose played a very important role in helping me to create a step by step plan of all upcoming final treatments starting from removing my braces to the building a final permanent retainer. My case was a complex one because we had to add dental work in addition to the orthodontic care, and Jose wrote down everything for me and talked to me about every step to ensure that everything was taken into consideration. He also removed my braces and used a technique that really helped to minimize discomfort for my teeth. Dr. Kent is caring, knowledgeable, and thoughtful. To ensure that my permanent retainer doesn’t interfere with the upcoming dental work, he offered to do a temporary retainer first and build a final permanent retainer after my dental appointment. I highly recommend Dr. Kent and his practice for everyone looking not only for a bright smile but for a confidence boost ahead!

I cannot say enough good things about Carolina Braces! They did a phenomenal job from start to finish. The staff made every appointment easy and comfortable, and the results speak for themselves—I absolutely love my smile! Thank you for such an incredible experience!
Janell T.
One adjustment appointment left my teeth feeling more sensitive than usual, so I called the office for advice. They responded quickly and gave helpful suggestions that worked well. It was reassuring to know they were available when I had concerns rather than making me wait until the next visit.
Morgan M.
All of the staff here are amazing! Dr. Kent and Emma made getting my braces put on seamless from start to finish. They were both professional, kind, and made sure I was comfortable the entire time. The process was quick, smooth, and way less stressful than I expected. I truly appreciate how great the experience was. They also gave me a goodie bag at the end with helpful items for caring for my braces, which was such a nice surprise. It was just a small but really kind touch that showed how much they care about their patients.

My son had his braces done here and had an excellent experience with great results. I just started with Invisalign and the process has been smooth and well-explained. The staff is friendly, professional, and care about their patients. Highly recommend Carolina Braces!
Francis W.
Dr. Kent and the entire Carolina Braces staff have been so helpful with transitioning from conventional braces to Invisalign. Emma was very efficient with removing my brackets and wires. She was very knowledgeable about the Invisalign trays and was friendly and courteous throughout my entire visit. Thank you Carolina Braces!
Kaitlynn L.
Carolina Braces has been nothing but excellent so far! All of the staff is pleasant (which is hard to come by these days) and Dr. Tagerman is awesome! I just got my braces put on today and the entire process was smooth and painless. They are a great team! I highly recommend them if you are considering braces (:
Tanisha B.
This has been my best dental experiences becoming a patient. The staff is so kind and professional, and the dentist made sure I understood everything about my treatment. The office is very clean and welcoming. I left feeling well taken care of and confident in my smile! Thanks again Amy you rock everytime

Got my braces done here the other day. Everyone was so sweet , vibes are good, was in and out quickly . Grateful !
Maryam G.
My son got his braces a few months ago at Carolina Braces, and we’ve had a great experience. The team is always kind and professional. Last Sunday, one of his wires came out and he was in pain. Even though it was rainy and the office was closed, Dr. Kent came in on his day off to fix it so my son wouldn’t have to wait until Monday. That truly meant a lot to us and shows how much he cares about his patients. We highly recommend Carolina Braces and definitely Dr. Kent!
