When it comes to choosing an orthodontist, you want a practice that prioritizes your comfort, care, and long-term results. While corporate-owned dental practices have grown in prevalence, there’s something special about the personalized experience of a family-owned orthodontic office like Cronin & Czarnik Orthodontics. But what’s the real difference, and why does it matter for you and your family?
We treat you like family and hope you feel like family when you’re at our office.
What Is Corporate Dentistry?
Corporate dentistry refers to orthodontic and dental offices that are owned and managed by large business entities rather than individual doctors. These practices are often part of a larger chain, meaning the orthodontists working there are typically employees rather than owners. While corporate orthodontic offices may offer convenience in terms of multiple locations, they often prioritize business efficiency and cost-cutting over patient relationships and personalized care.
Misconceptions: Are Family-Owned Orthodontists More Expensive?
One common myth is that private, family-owned orthodontic practices are significantly more expensive than corporate chains. In reality, pricing is often very comparable, if not better, at a locally owned practice. At Cronin & Czarnik Orthodontics, we work closely with our patients to provide flexible payment plans, competitive pricing, and financing options to ensure you receive the highest quality care without financial stress. Unlike corporate offices, which may have hidden fees or prioritize quick treatment turnover, we focus on customized care that fits your unique needs and budget.
The Benefit of Seeing the Same Doctors Every Visit
One of the biggest advantages of choosing a family-owned orthodontist is continuity of care. At corporate offices, patients often experience frequent turnover of doctors, meaning you might see a different orthodontist at every appointment. This inconsistency can make treatment feel impersonal and disjointed.
At Cronin & Czarnik Orthodontics, we believe in building long-term relationships with our patients. You’ll see the same trusted doctors at every visit, ensuring that your treatment plan is monitored by professionals who know your case inside and out. This consistency leads to better results, a more comfortable experience, and the confidence that your doctor truly understands your smile journey.
