See Why Our Patients are Raving

As a retired military member while in the military having braces were against regulations due always being forward deployed and your orthodontist was stateside unable to complete your treatment and three kids that needed them more than I. Once they flew the nest I knew my chance had arrived along with Invisalign. Dr. Bates office and staff have made me feel comfortable with my age and walking in the office filled with teenagers. I’m smiling more now than I have before and in front of the camera instead of behind it. Thanks Dr. Bates and staff!!

I absolutely love the service I have at the Glen Allen location! Everyone is so accommodating and polite! You guys rock!

I went to Dr. Bates for numerous things, crooked teeth, alignment, and TMJ issues. Dr. Bates treated my crooked teeth without necessitating a full alignment when other orthodontists wouldn’t (and it was super reasonably priced), he was flexible with my time constraints (on when I would be moving), and most importantly he changed my life with my TMJ. I have no words to describe how incredibly overwhelmed I was that Dr. Bates helped stop the constant pain I had in my jaw and ear from the TMJ. I felt like crying tears of joy because it was absolutely affecting my everyday life. Although, my TMJ isn’t completely gone, the everyday pain is no longer an issue. I cannot thank Dr. Bates and his staff enough for completely changing my life. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. If you’re contemplating an orthodontist, I urge you. Please look no further. Bates Orthodontics is where you need to go.

Dr. Bates put in a permanent bottom retainer 6 years ago and it’s been so helpful! Their staff is friendly and efficient. Would highly recommend Bates Orthodontics to anyone!

Was pleasantly surprised by the wonderful staff, who were very friendly and made me feel at ease. Also loved their treatment options and was able to find one that worked well for me.

We have been going to Dr. Bates since he first started his practice when my son was 8 years old. He and his staff are wonderful. They’ve always gone above and beyond to make sure my kids have the best treatment, are comfortable, and their teeth look amazing. Neither of my children have had to keep their braces for longer than he estimated. Dr. Bates uses state-of-the-art and the most up-to-date equipment and procedures. We have referred many friends and family to his practice and all have been completely satisfied. Bonus is we feel like family there!

This is by far the best orthodontist and the staff is awesome!! My daughter was a patient and now I am and I can’t say anything negative about them. The offices are always clean and neat and the staff always has a smile on their face and sweetness in their voices. Go Bates orthodontist!!!
