It’s Time For a Second Opinion
September 9, 2019
1) Pretty simple. I don’t believe or like what I’m hearing. Heck, you may not like what I’m telling you. I was the fifth opinion once. The first four suggested a $4000 procedure, I recommended extracting a primary tooth only. It worked. 2) The fees are too high. Higher does not mean better. 3) Be careful of a hard sell. 4) Most eight year old’s do not need treatment. 5) If you do Phase I treatment, your child probably won’t need orthodontic treatment, Phase II) later, or it may be…

Your Eight Year Old Does Not Need Braces
December 20th, 2018
You better think real hard and/or get a second opinion before you pay $4,000 and commit 1-2 years for Phase I treatment, then do it all over when all the permanent teeth come in. This Phase II will cost $5,000+. Total cost approximately $12,000. That would commit a parent to take your child to the orthodontist for 3-5 years. That’s about 50 appointments. Both parents and kids would be burned out when the REAL treatment is started. No thanks. None of my four children had Phase I…
Featured Testimonial
Dear Dr. Stevens,
Several months ago, I came to you with my son and daughter for our evaluation regarding braces for them both. My daughter was ready to proceed, but I found out that we would be in our window of moving off the island toward the end of her treatment, so we opted to wait until our next location. My son had a referral to an orthodontist because he was 9 years old, had a supernumerary tooth that had been pulled and his front tooth was not coming down despite the fact that it had been over a year.
Our pediatric dentist had referred us to another orthodontist, but I brought him to you due to your good reviews and proximity to our home. I’m so thankful that we did. You looked at his X-ray and said that the only thing he needed was the nearest baby tooth removed because it was blocking the front tooth from descending. You wrote a referral back to the pediatric dentist telling him to remove the tooth.
Upon receiving the referral, at the appointment to remove the tooth, I was asked why I went with you instead of the orthodontist that he referred me to, and was told that although you believed the tooth would come down without braces and chains attached to pull it, he was doubtful of your prediction. He also highly suggested I come back in and have the gum lasered to accelerate the descent, before reconsidering another orthodontist. I declined the laser cutting of his gum, and instead just waited to see what would happen.
My son has two beautiful front teeth now. His tooth fully came down as you predicted, and since we will be moving soon I feel obliged to let you know how it all turned out, and how impressed I was with your candor. You could have sold us braces, attached chains to the tooth, and dragged this process out as invasively and financially expensive as possible, and I wouldn’t have been the wiser. Instead, you honestly gave us the least invasive and cost-effective treatment, all at our first consultation. Your diagnosis and treatment recommendation were openly questioned by my pediatric dentist, however, you were correct.
Your honesty means so much to me as a mom, and I feel obliged to share my experience with you for other parents in my position. Thank you. After two pediatric dentists and two oral surgeons telling me that they did not believe that tooth would come down without chains attached, you proved them all wrong, and for that, you have my sincere gratitude.
Respectfully yours,
Carol S.
PS. Your receptionist is very sweet as well.

“Dr. Stevens is a very knowledgeable orthodontist! He is currently overseeing my daughter’s braces. He and his staff are extremely friendly and patient. They answered all of our many questions. They accept interest-free payment plans or you can pay in full for a 5% discount. They are even in-network with Metlife military insurance. I highly recommend Dr. Stevens for any braces needs! A+ service.”

“When I was 10 my orthodontist told my mother that a Herbst appliance would fix my overbite, so of course she spent tons of money to pay for it. Fast forward 15 years and my overbite was just as bad until I came into Dr. Stevens’s. Between his excellent work and the work of the surgeons at Tripler I am on my way to better bite and less overall pain.”
– Emily F.
“The staff here is so friendly. I’ve known Dr. Stevens for 4 1/2 years. He’s seen both my daughter’s and he’s absolutely the best! He’s also very professional, affordable, and accommodating. He will go out of his way to make sure anything you need gets done. I highly recommend Dr. Stevens for any orthodontic treatment. A+ Service”

Military Transfers Welcome
At Hook Orthodontics, we understand that there are any number of reasons you might need to change orthodontists. Perhaps you are new to the island or have not been satisfied with your current orthodontist’s work. Perhaps you are a member of the military bravely serving our country. Dr. Stevens and his clinical staff welcome transfers no matter where they are in their orthodontic journey and especially welcome members of the armed services.
How Does Invisalign® Treatment Work?
One of our specialties at Hook Orthodontics is an orthodontic treatment called “Invisalign®.” Invisalign® is a process by which we use clear aligners that are custom-made to fit your mouth to adjust the position of your teeth over time. The process typically takes anywhere from six to 18 months, but every mouth is different! Many of the patients at Hook Orthodontics choose Invisalign® because it is virtually invisible to the naked eye, but in addition to being aesthetically pleasing, Invisalign® is effective.
