Most families expect orthodontic treatment to go a certain way: a quick exam, a treatment plan handed across the desk, and a long stretch of appointments that feel more like errands than care. At MyFamily Orthodontics, Dr. Lauris Johnson and her team do things differently. Here’s what that looks like for families in Windermere and Orlando, and why it matters from the first consultation to the day the braces come off.
“Family” Is in the Name for a Reason
The name isn’t just branding. The team at MyFamily Orthodontics sees itself as a family of orthodontic experts helping your family smile, and that shows up in how the office runs every day. The goal is to pair modern technology with a warm, welcoming setting so the whole experience feels fun from start to finish, not like something to get through.
When asked why did you choose MyFamily Orthodontics over other clinics, one client noted “Initially recommended by dentist and location, met our needs. After meeting Dr. Johnson, her consultative approach, thoughtfulness in educating us and office staff have been excellent. Best decision we made for our daughter.” Best decision for their daughter. Wow! This means this client put trust in MyFamily Orthodontics and Dr. Johnson to provide care for their loved one.
This focus on trust is what sets Dr. Johnson apart from her competitors. From Day 1 everything she and her staff do is foster and cultivate trust by listening to their clients and building personalized treatment plans with compassion. There is no generic treatment plan for the clients at MyFamily Orthodontics. MyFamily Orthodontics places emphasis on designing an orthodontic treatment that is effective AND tailored to personal goals and lifestyle.
Another client remarked “A family referral is why we came over, but in the end the quality of care and price drove the decision. We felt very comfortable with Dr. Johnson, and her expertise.” The family atmosphere at MyFamily is also a unique driver for those seeking comfort with expertise and affordable prices during their orthodontic journey.
And then there’s Dr. Johnson: “When I met Dr Johnson, she was very knowledgeable, friendly, answering all my questions and she was not rushing the consultation.” What ultimately sets MyFamily Orthodontics apart from other orthodontics is Dr. Johnson herself. She is not only an orthodontist, but she is also a wife and mother. She understands the demands of having a family and a full-time job. It makes her relatable to her clients who trust her to provide compassion and exceptional and affordable services to their loved ones or themselves. That matters when you’ll be coming in regularly for a year or more. You can read more on our Our Practice and Meet the Team pages
