Why Choose a Board-Certified Orthodontist?

Dr. Taylor isn’t a general dentist who also does braces. He’s an orthodontic specialist with over 15 years of focused experience in McAllen.

To become board-certified, an orthodontist has to complete dental school, then a 2–3 year orthodontic residency, then hundreds of additional hours of rigorous review by the American Board of Orthodontics. Only about 20% of practicing orthodontists earn board certification. Dr. Taylor is one of them.

He’s also the only Gold Plus Provider of Invisalign in McAllen and the Rio Grande Valley—a distinction reserved for the highest-volume, most experienced Invisalign providers.

What that means for you: when you come in for your free consultation, you’re getting expert eyes, not a general dentist who refers complex cases out. Whether your case is simple or complicated, Dr. Taylor can handle it in-house.

Frequently Asked Questions About Your Free Consultation

Is the consultation really free?

Yes, completely free, with no obligation to start treatment. Even if you decide our office isn’t the right fit, you’ll leave with a full diagnosis, X-rays, and a written treatment plan at no cost. We don’t believe in hidden fees or surprise charges for first visits.

How long does a free orthodontic consultation take?

Plan for about 45 minutes. That includes check-in, your exam with Dr. Taylor, digital X-rays, a 3D scan, and time to discuss your treatment options and costs. We never rush; you’ll have plenty of time to ask questions.

What should I bring to my consultation?

Just yourself (or your child) and your dental insurance card if you have one. If you’ve had recent dental X-rays from another office, those can be helpful too, but they’re not required. We have our own digital X-ray equipment on-site.

Will I be pressured to start treatment that day?

No. We give you your treatment plan and cost estimate to take home. Many of our patients take days, weeks, or even months to decide, and that’s completely fine. When you’re ready, we’re here.

How much do braces cost in McAllen?

Braces at A Perfect Smile Orthodontics start as low as $99 a month with our in-house, interest-free financing. Total treatment cost depends on the complexity of your case, but every free consultation includes a transparent, written estimate so you know exactly what to expect.

Do you accept dental insurance?

Yes, we accept most major dental insurance plans that include orthodontic benefits, and we’ll verify your coverage before treatment begins. We’ll also explain exactly what your insurance does and doesn’t cover, so there are no surprises.

Can my child come for a free consultation?

Absolutely. The American Association of Orthodontists recommends children have their first orthodontic check-up by age 7. Even if no treatment is needed yet, an early evaluation helps catch issues like crowding or bite problems while they’re still easy to address.

Do you offer consultations in Spanish?

Sí, hablamos español. Our front-desk team and Dr. Taylor’s clinical staff include bilingual Spanish speakers, and we offer a full Spanish-language page for our Spanish-speaking patients.

What if I just want to know my options without committing?

That’s exactly what the free consultation is for. You’ll get a clear picture of what’s possible—braces, Invisalign, or maybe nothing at all—without any pressure to schedule treatment. Many patients use the consultation as a starting point and come back months later when they’re ready.

Do you see adult patients?

Yes, about 1 in 4 of our patients are adults. We offer discreet options like clear braces and Invisalign that make treatment barely noticeable. It’s never too late to fix something that’s bothered you for years.
