Learn more about orthodontics on AAO's YouTube page - Dr. Nettles Green

Dr. Green and his team would like to point you to a few interesting webisodes about orthodontics. The American Association of Orthodontics, or AAO, has a YouTube page we enjoy visiting regularly. There, they post some very pertinent videos about orthodontic treatment, and the new technology in orthodontia. These include "Orthodontic Treatment Basics," "Common Bite Problems Seen in Children" and "Does My Child Need Braces?"

We think you may find these webisodes interesting, as well as enlightening.

If you have any questions about the videos, or your treatment here at Green Orthodontics, please give us a call.

The Greater Columbia Dental Association



In October Dr. Green and his staff attended the Greater Columbia Dental Association meeting. Featured guest was David Pollay, author of "The Law of the Garbage Truck". We enjoyed a fun evening of fellowship with each other and our colleagues and took the "No Garbage Trucks" pledge. Check out David on his blog at davidjpollayblog.com. We really do love what we do!

Also, don't forget about our retainer deals! Dr. Green offers half off retainers to his patients who lose their retainer. All we require is for our patient to bring several canned or non-perishable items to our office for the deal. So far, over 400 pounds of goods have been donated to Harvest Hope Food Bank within the last several months.

Patient reviews for Dr. Green



Green Orthodontics, serving Columbia and surrounding areas, has been receiving some great patient reviews lately! Check out what our current patients are saying about Dr. Green and team!

"Straightforward information on current orthodontia status and corrective measures. Friendly, consumer/patient atmosphere. Office is effective and streamlined with little wait time." ~ Mark O.

"They are good at making the patient and family feel at ease,in explaining everything and taking the time so the patient doesn't feel rushed. Very pleasant and professional staff and office environment." ~ Donna C.

"He (Dr. Green) really listened to what I wanted from my braces and I really got a sense that he was experienced and good at what he does. He spaced appointments to accommodate the distance I travel, found a way to avoid extra dental expenses (i.e., narrowing gap rather than getting a bridge/false tooth), and addressed bite issues that were not the primary reason I came in (i.e., aesthetics)." ~ Morgana B.

"He does a wonderful job with the technical issues and also with discussing the treatment and the progression of the treatment with patients. The new office set-up really seems to make treatment easier for both patients and staff." ~ Steve M.

"Dr. Green is very pleasant. I find him to have much confidence in his work and has so far done a fantastic job. Thank you Dr. Green and staff." ~ Garland B.
