Best Phase 1 Orthodontics in Miramar for Ages 6 to 10
Your kid just turned 7 and the pediatric dentist mentioned something about an orthodontic consult.
You might be thinking, "Already?"
I get it.
At SMILE-FX®, I hear this from parents every single day.
Here is the truth: age 7 is not too early. It is the sweet spot.
I am Dr. Tracy Liang, board certified orthodontist and the clinical director here at our Miramar studio.
My team and I have built something different from what you probably picture when you think of braces and expanders and waiting rooms full of anxious kids.
We built a Studio experience where kids actually want to show up.
And we get results in as little as 4 to 6 months for many Phase 1 cases because we use AI powered treatment planning and 3D printing right here in house.
Direct Answer: Phase 1 orthodontics, also called interceptive treatment, happens between ages 6 and 10. It guides jaw growth, creates space for permanent teeth, and corrects harmful habits like mouth breathing before they cause permanent skeletal issues that would need surgery later.
The American Association of Orthodontists recommends every child have their first orthodontic evaluation by age 7.
Not because every 7 year old needs braces.
Because that is the window where I can spot problems before they become expensive, invasive surgeries down the road.
When you catch a crossbite or a narrow palate early, you can often fix it with a simple expander instead of jaw surgery at 18.
That is the whole game.
Interceptive growth treatment is about working with your child's biology, not against it.
And here is something most parents do not know: only about 30 percent of orthodontic practitioners are board certified.
When you walk into our studio, you are seeing a Diplomate of the American Board of Orthodontics every single visit.
Not a general dentist doing ortho on the side.
Not a rotating associate.
Me. Every time.
Parents drive to us from Miramar, Pembroke Pines, Weston, Hollywood, Davie, and Cooper City because they want the specialist who other dentists send their own kids to.
Our studio sits right at 11225 Miramar Parkway, easy to reach whether you are coming up Pines Boulevard or taking I-75 South.
And with our Smartphone Remote Monitoring system, we cut in office visits by roughly 40 percent.
Less time in traffic.
Less time missing school or work.
More time being a kid.
The SMILE-FX® Studio Is Built Different
Most orthodontic offices feel like a medical procedure is about to happen.
White walls.
Fluorescent lights.
Clipboards.
We tossed that playbook.
When families walk into our studio, they see a space designed to feel like a lounge.
Snacks.
Noise cancelling headphones.
Private VIP suites.
VR immersion headsets that transform treatment time into a relaxation experience.
Kids do not dread appointments here.
They look forward to them.
We also eliminated the stuff that makes orthodontic visits miserable.
No more gag inducing gooey impressions.
Our VIP Tech Suite uses flawless optical scanning with iTero and 3Shape scanners.
Quick, clean, accurate.
And the AI Smile Simulation shows you what your child's finished result looks like before we even start.
Zero guesswork.
Total confidence from day one.
Direct Answer: The VIP Tech Suite at SMILE-FX® combines optical scanning, 3D facial mapping, VR entertainment, and AI treatment planning into one seamless experience. It eliminates traditional impressions and lets parents preview final results before committing to treatment.
Why South Florida Parents Choose Early Treatment
Here is something specific to our region that nobody talks about.
South Florida's humidity sits above 60 percent nearly year round.
That moisture affects everything, including orthodontic adhesives.
At our studio, we use HEMA free universal adhesives and Transbond XT bonding systems with vacuum assisted isolation protocols.
This prevents premature bracket failure that cheaper clinics constantly battle with.
It is a technical detail most parents never hear about, but it is why our treatment stays on schedule when others drag on.
Another local reality: Broward County school calendars are intense.
Testing weeks, AP exams, sports seasons.
I time our Phase 1 treatments to work around these stress windows.
We start expanders or FX Ai Braces™ during breaks or lighter academic periods so your child is not dealing with adjustment discomfort during a math final.
This is the kind of thinking you get when your orthodontist actually lives and practices in the same community.
We also handle the insurance maze for you.
Florida Blue PPO, Delta Dental of Florida, and most major plans.
We maximize your benefits so you are not leaving money on the table.
And for families without coverage, we offer 0 downpayment options for qualified applicants and 0% interest options available with monthly payments as low as a number that fits your budget.
| City | Why Families Choose SMILE-FX® | Commute Reality |
|---|---|---|
| Miramar | Flagship studio with full VIP Tech Suite and in house 3D printing lab | Located at 11225 Miramar Pkwy, right in your neighborhood |
| Pembroke Pines | Families from Silver Lakes and Chapel Trail prefer our 4 to 6 month timelines | 10 minute drive via Pines Blvd or Miramar Parkway |
| Weston | Elite credentials matter here, Dr. Liang trained at Cornell and University of Minnesota | Easy access via I-75 South |
| Hollywood | Airway focused care for active kids and teens in sports or performing arts | Direct commute for families wanting an anxiety free studio |
| Davie & Cooper City | Remote monitoring means fewer visits for busy school schedules | Worth the drive when you only come in 40% less often |
What Happens at the First Visit
You book a free consultation.
You bring your child in.
We do a 3D CBCT scan using ultra low dose imaging, safe for developing brains and bodies.
I sit down with you and go over everything I see.
Growth patterns.
Airway volume.
Tooth eruption sequence.
If treatment is not needed yet, I tell you that straight up.
We enroll your child in our growth monitoring program at no cost and check in periodically.
If interceptive treatment would help, I show you exactly why using the AI simulation.
You see the before.
You see the projected after.
You make the call with full information.
No pressure.
No obligation.
Just clarity.
Direct Answer: A first visit at SMILE-FX® includes a complimentary 3D scan, an AI smile simulation showing projected results, and a one on one consultation with Dr. Liang, a board certified specialist. If no treatment is needed, growth monitoring continues at no charge.
Signs Your Child Might Need Phase 1 Orthodontics
| Symptom | What It Could Mean | Why Early Action Matters |
|---|---|---|
| Mouth Breathing | Restricted airway or narrow palate | Linked to sleep disordered breathing and altered facial growth |
| Crossbite | Upper jaw too narrow relative to lower jaw | Can cause asymmetric jaw growth if left uncorrected |
| Crowding | Insufficient space for permanent teeth | Early expansion creates room naturally, avoiding extractions later |
| Thumb Sucking | Habit altering palate shape and dental arches | Intervention prevents open bites and speech issues |
| Early or Late Tooth Loss | Disrupted eruption sequence | Guiding eruption prevents impactions and misalignment |
Here is what I tell parents in our studio.
Phase 1 is not about creating a perfect smile at age 8.
It is about setting the foundation so Phase 2, if needed later, is shorter, simpler, and less expensive.
Think of it like this.
You can build a house on a crooked foundation and fix it later with massive reconstruction.
Or you can level the ground first.
Phase 1 is leveling the ground.
The Technology Behind Faster Treatment
Our FX Ai Braces™ use computer guided bracket placement with sub millimeter precision.
Traditional braces placement relies on the doctor's eye and experience.
That works fine.
But AI planning removes the variables.
Every bracket goes exactly where the software calculates optimal force delivery.
Teeth move more predictably.
Treatment wraps up faster.
Less discomfort along the way.
We are also one of the few practices in Florida offering in house 3D printed aligners.
Most offices send scans to a lab and wait two to three weeks for aligners to ship back.
We print them right here.
Same day starts are possible in many cases.
If your child loses an aligner, we print a replacement immediately instead of making you wait two weeks and lose progress.
This is a massive advantage for families who value time.
And as a Top Rated Invisalign Provider, we also offer the full Invisalign system when that is the better clinical choice.
We are not married to one technology.
We are married to the right outcome for your kid.
Direct Answer: SMILE-FX® combines AI treatment planning, in house 3D printing, and optical scanning to deliver Phase 1 treatment in as little as 4 to 6 months, roughly 50 percent faster than the industry average, while maintaining board certified clinical standards.
Teens and Hidden Options
Phase 1 is for the little ones.
But I treat a ton of teenagers too.
And teens in South Florida care deeply about how they look during treatment.
I get it.
School photos.
Homecoming.
TikTok.
Instagram.
They want results without the metal mouth look.
We offer clear aligners through our aligner systems that are nearly invisible.
For the ultimate discretion, I am one of fewer than 10 doctors in the USA credentialed in the Win Lingual system.
These brackets go behind the teeth.
Completely invisible from the front.
Perfect for teens in theater, modeling, or anyone who simply does not want braces showing.
We also offer Inbrace, another hidden lingual option.
For adults reading this who never got treatment as kids.
We see you too.
Our adult braces and clear aligner options are built for image conscious professionals.
Champagne gold brackets.
Ceramic clear options.
The "Miami Glow Up" is real and we help patients achieve it every day.
What Sets a Board Certified Specialist Apart
A general dentist completes dental school and can legally offer orthodontics.
A board certified orthodontist completes dental school, then three additional years of specialized residency focused exclusively on tooth movement and jaw alignment.
Then they pass rigorous written and clinical examinations.
Only about 30 percent of practicing orthodontists earn this distinction.
I completed my residency at the University of Minnesota and earned my board certification because I believe families deserve the highest standard of care.
When a general dentist handles ortho, they are a jack of all trades.
When I handle your child's case, it is the only thing I do.
Every day.
All day.
This depth of experience matters most in complex cases like impacted teeth, surgical orthodontics, and airway driven treatment planning.
Learn more about what board certification means for your family.
Direct Answer: Board certification means the orthodontist completed an additional three year residency and passed examinations demonstrating mastery of the specialty. Only 30 percent of practitioners achieve this, making it the highest credential in orthodontics and a key differentiator for patient safety and clinical excellence.
Airway Health Is the Hidden Priority
Straight teeth look great.
But the real win of Phase 1 treatment happens behind the scenes.
Jaw expansion opens the airway.
A wider palate means more space for the tongue.
Better tongue posture means better breathing during sleep.
Better sleep means better focus in school, better mood, better growth.
I use 3D CBCT imaging to evaluate airway volume alongside cosmetic concerns.
This is not something every practice does.
It should be.
Mouth breathing in children correlates with ADHD like symptoms, poor academic performance, and altered facial development.
When we catch it early, we can often correct it with expansion alone.
No CPAP.
No surgery.
Just the right orthodontic intervention at the right time.
Real Results, Real Fast
Parents ask me all the time how we get Phase 1 done so quickly.
The answer is the combination of three things.
First, AI treatment planning removes the inefficiency of manual bracket placement.
Second, our in house 3D printing lab eliminates lab shipping delays.
Third, remote monitoring lets me track progress between visits so adjustments happen at the optimal moment, not just whenever the next appointment falls on the calendar.
These three together cut treatment time by roughly half compared to traditional approaches.
For a busy South Florida family, that means fewer missed school days, fewer hours in the car, and a faster path to a healthy smile.
Our patient reviews tell the story better than I can.
Check out what families are saying about their SMILE-FX® experience.
We were recognized with the Evergreen Award 2025 for best orthodontic experience and service in South Florida.

How SMILE-FX® Dominates Phase 1 Orthodontics in Miramar Without the Stress
You already know Phase 1 orthodontics in Miramar is the smart move for your 7‑year‑old.
Now I want to show you what happens after you say yes.
I am Dr. Tracy Liang, board certified orthodontist and Co‑Founder of SMILE‑FX®.
Every single treatment plan that walks out of this studio has my eyes on it.
Not a general dentist dabbling in ortho.
Not a rotating associate fresh out of residency.
Me. And my co‑founder Dr. Alex, Fellow of the International Academy for Dental‑Facial Esthetics and a specialist in Digital Smile Design.
Two powerhouse experts.
One studio.
Zero compromises.
The Credential Stack That Protects Your Child
Direct Answer: Dr. Liang is a Diplomate of the American Board of Orthodontics, a distinction held by only 30% of orthodontists. She is also a Credentialed Fellow of the International Academy for Dental‑Facial Esthetics, an honor fewer than 1% of orthodontists in the USA achieve. This dual certification means your child’s care meets the highest clinical and aesthetic standards on the planet.
Here is why that matters when you are choosing Phase 1 treatment.
A board certified orthodontist completes dental school, then three extra years of residency focused strictly on tooth movement and jaw alignment.
Then passes brutal written and clinical exams.
Then continues to re‑certify.
When I evaluate your child’s CBCT scan, I am not guessing.
I am reading airway volume, skeletal growth patterns, and tooth eruption sequences through the lens of a specialist who has treated thousands of cases.
This depth protects your child from unnecessary treatment.
It also catches the stealthy issues general dentists miss.
Things like impacted canines that could damage permanent tooth roots if left alone.
Or a narrow palate that is quietly compromising your child’s sleep.
Read more about what board certification means for your family.
The Technology Stack That Shrinks Treatment Time
Direct Answer: Our VIP Tech Suite combines AI treatment planning, in‑house 3D printing, and remote monitoring to cut Phase 1 treatment time to as little as 4 to 6 months, roughly 50% faster than industry average, while reducing in‑office visits by about 40%.
Let me break down exactly how we do that.
First, we designed our own precision bracket system called FX Ai Braces™.
AI software maps the exact position for every bracket before we ever touch a tooth.
Sub‑millimeter accuracy.
Every bracket goes where the math demands, not where my hand feels like placing it.
Teeth move more predictably.
Appointments get shorter.
Discomfort drops.
Second, we print aligners and models right inside the studio.
No waiting two weeks for a lab in another state.
If your child loses an aligner, I print a replacement immediately.
Same day starts are possible in many cases.
This is a massive advantage for families juggling school, sports, and traffic on the Palmetto Expressway.
Third, Smartphone Remote Monitoring lets me check progress between visits.
You snap a quick scan with your phone.
My AI software analyzes tooth movement.
I only call you in when something actually needs adjusting, not because a calendar told me to.
That is how we slash office visits by roughly 40%.
Discover the full VIP Tech Suite and AI Smile Simulation we use daily.
Complex Cases and Retreatment: Where General Dentists Tap Out
Direct Answer: SMILE‑FX® is a referral destination for complex orthodontic cases including surgical orthodontics, impacted teeth, and retreatment of failed prior orthodontics. Dr. Liang’s specialized training and board certification allow her to safely manage cases that most general dentists and even many orthodontists will not touch.
I see patients who have been burned before.
Adults who did braces as a teen, stopped wearing retainers, and watched their teeth shift back.
Parents who took their child to a general dentist for Phase 1 and now the bite is worse.
Surgical cases where the oral surgeon explicitly requested Dr. Liang handle the orthodontic side.
These are the cases I live for.
Treating an impacted canine is not the same as straightening a few front teeth.
It demands 3D CBCT planning, precise bracket mechanics, and a deep understanding of root resorption risk.
When you choose SMILE‑FX®, you get the orthodontist who other dentists call when they are in over their heads.
Explore the range of treatable cases we handle every day.
Hidden Braces and the Teen Confidence Factor
Direct Answer: SMILE‑FX® offers hidden lingual braces including Win Lingual and Inbrace, where brackets are bonded behind the teeth, making treatment completely invisible from the front. Dr. Liang is one of fewer than 10 doctors in the USA credentialed in the Win Lingual system.
Teens in Miramar care about how they look during treatment.
School photos.
Homecoming.
Constant social media.
They do not want a mouth full of metal.
Our clear aligners are nearly invisible and ideal for responsible teens.
But for the ultimate stealth mode, we offer Win Lingual and Inbrace lingual braces.
Brackets go behind the teeth.
Nobody knows you are in treatment.
Perfect for kids in theater, modeling, or anyone who just wants to keep their smile private.
I am one of fewer than 10 doctors in the entire country fully credentialed in Win Lingual.
This is not a system you want a beginner handling.
Lingual braces demand an entirely different skill set.
We have that skill set.
Adult Options: The Miami Glow Up Is Real
Phase 1 is for the little kids.
But half the parents who walk in end up asking about themselves.
I get it.
You never got braces as a kid.
Or your teeth shifted after pregnancy.
Or you are tired of hiding your smile in professional headshots.
We designed our adult treatment paths for image‑conscious professionals.
Champagne gold brackets.
Ceramic clear options.
Custom 3D printed aligners we fabricate right here, not shipped from a lab.
We are a Top Rated Invisalign Provider, a PINK Diamond OrthoFX provider (the highest tier possible for that aligner system), and a preferred partner for OrthoFX.
That means we have treated hundreds of cases with precision aligners and can match the right system to your exact biology.
Not every case fits Invisalign.
Not every case fits OrthoFX.
Having multiple top‑tier systems under one roof means you get the right tool for your teeth, not the tool the office happens to sell.
Book a free adult braces consultation and see your projected result same day.
The Lens of Airway and Overall Health
Straight teeth look fantastic.
But the biggest win of orthodontic treatment often happens while your child sleeps.
A wide palate creates space for the tongue.
Proper tongue posture keeps the airway open.
Open airway means deep, restorative sleep.
Deep sleep means better focus in class, better emotional regulation, better growth hormone release.
I use 3D CBCT imaging to measure airway volume on every Phase 1 patient.
If I see restriction, expansion becomes a health priority, not just a cosmetic one.
Mouth breathing in children correlates with ADHD‑like symptoms, bedwetting, and altered facial development.
Catching that at age 7 and fixing it with a simple expander can change the entire trajectory of your child’s health.
No CPAP.
No surgery.
Just the right orthodontic intervention at the right biological window.
Financial Clarity: No Surprises, No Hidden Fees
Direct Answer: SMILE‑FX® offers $0 down options for qualified applicants and 0% interest options available with monthly payments as low as a figure that fits your budget. We accept Florida Blue PPO, Delta Dental of Florida, and most major plans. All patients are protected by Florida SB 1808 compliance guaranteeing overpayment refunds within 30 days.
Our team handles the insurance verification for you.
We maximize your benefits so you keep more of your own money.
If you are paying out of pocket, we walk through the numbers transparently.
No bait and switch.
No surprise fees in month three.
We run a tight financial ship with automated ledger auditing because we believe in earning trust, not extracting it.

What Nobody Tells You About Adult Orthodontics and the Real Cost of Waiting
Most adults in South Florida think they missed their window for braces.
They figure straight teeth are a teenage thing.
Something you do in middle school between soccer practice and science homework.
I am here to tell you that is flat wrong.
I am Dr. Tracy Liang, board certified orthodontist and clinical director at SMILE-FX® in Miramar.
Half the smiles I treat belong to adults over 30.
Professionals who never got braces as kids.
Parents whose teeth shifted after pregnancy.
Executives tired of hiding their smile during presentations.
And here is what surprises most of them: adult treatment today looks nothing like what you remember from the 1990s.
No headgear.
No massive metal brackets.
No three year sentences.
Direct Answer: Adults now make up nearly 30 percent of all orthodontic patients in the United States. Modern treatment options including clear aligners, ceramic braces, and hidden lingual systems mean you can straighten your teeth without anyone knowing. Treatment timelines average 12 to 18 months, not the multi year commitments of decades past.
Traditional Braces vs Invisalign: The Real Comparison That Matters
Every patient who walks into our Miramar studio asks the same question.
Should I do braces or clear aligners?
The internet gives you marketing fluff.
I give you clinical reality.
| Factor | Traditional Braces | Clear Aligners |
|---|---|---|
| Best For | Complex rotations, severe crowding, bite correction | Mild to moderate crowding, spacing, relapse cases |
| Visibility | Visible but modern options include ceramic and champagne gold | Nearly invisible |
| Compliance Required | None, braces work 24/7 | Must wear 20 to 22 hours daily |
| Treatment Speed | Often faster for complex movements | Comparable for straightforward cases |
| Office Visits | Every 6 to 8 weeks | Can be reduced with remote monitoring |
| Cost Range South Florida | Monthly payments as low as budget friendly rates | Monthly payments as low as budget friendly rates |
Here is the truth nobody tells you about Traditional Braces vs Invisalign.
Both tools work brilliantly when used on the right case.
The problem arises when a provider only offers one option and tries to force your teeth into a system that was never designed for your biology.
At SMILE-FX®, we are a Top Rated Invisalign Provider and we also offer SureSmile and OrthoFX aligner systems.
That means I match the tool to your teeth, not the other way around.
If aligners will give you a mediocre result but braces would nail it, I tell you.
If braces are overkill and aligners will get you there faster, I tell you that too.
Explore our full range of clear aligner options and see which system fits your lifestyle.
Does Insurance Cover Braces? The Straight Answer for South Florida Families
Direct Answer: Many dental insurance plans do cover orthodontic treatment, typically with a lifetime maximum benefit ranging from $1,000 to $3,000 per person. Coverage depends on your specific plan, whether treatment is medically necessary, and the age of the patient. At SMILE-FX®, we verify your benefits before you commit to anything.
I hear the question "Does Insurance Cover Braces?" at least five times a day in our studio.
Here is the breakdown.
Florida Blue PPO plans often include orthodontic benefits with lifetime maximums that can substantially offset Phase 1 or Phase 2 treatment.
Delta Dental of Florida typically covers a percentage of treatment up to a certain age limit.
Some plans cover adults.
Some stop at 19.
My team handles this maze for you.
We call your insurance company.
We verify exactly what your plan covers.
We present the numbers clearly before you sign anything.
No surprises three months into treatment when a bill shows up that you did not expect.
For families without orthodontic coverage, or for those who have exhausted their lifetime maximum, we offer 0 downpayment options for qualified applicants.
We also provide 0% interest options available with monthly payments as low as a number that keeps your budget intact.
This applies whether you are looking for Affordable Braces Miramar, Affordable Braces Broward, or Affordable Braces West Palm Beach options.
We comply with Florida SB 1808 standards for patient overpayment refunds within 30 days.
That means automated ledger auditing keeps everything transparent.
Financial clarity is not a nice to have.
It is a requirement.
Why We Are the Referral Destination for Complex Cases
General dentists do great work.
But when a case gets complicated, they pick up the phone and call a specialist.
I receive referrals from dentists across South Florida for impacted canines, surgical orthodontic prep, and retreatment of failed prior orthodontics.
These are not straightforward cases.
They demand 3D CBCT imaging, precise biomechanics, and experience with surgical coordination.
When an oral surgeon in Broward County needs orthodontic setup for jaw surgery, they send the patient to someone they trust implicitly.
Being known as the Best Orthodontist for Complex Cases did not happen by accident.
It happened because I treat every case like it is being reviewed by a board of my peers.
Because honestly, sometimes it is.
That is what board certification demands.
Continuous scrutiny.
Continuous improvement.
See the range of treatable cases we handle every single day, from simple alignment to full surgical orthodontics.
The Technology That Makes Us a Top Tech Driven Orthodontist Miramar
Direct Answer: SMILE-FX® operates the only in house 3D printing lab for orthodontic aligners in the Miramar area, combined with AI treatment planning and smartphone remote monitoring. This technology stack reduces treatment time by roughly 50 percent and office visits by 40 percent compared to traditional practices.
People search for Top tech driven Orthodontist Miramar because they want efficiency.
They want fewer visits.
They want faster results.
They want to know their doctor is using modern tools, not techniques from 1995.
At SMILE-FX®, our VIP Tech Suite is built on three pillars.
First, AI precision bracket placement through our FX Ai Braces™ system.
Software calculates the exact position for every bracket to sub millimeter accuracy.
Teeth move more predictably because the physics are optimized from day one.
Second, in house 3D printing.
Most offices ship your scan to a lab in another state.
You wait two to three weeks for aligners to arrive.
We print them right here in Miramar.
Same day starts are possible.
If an aligner gets lost, we print a replacement immediately.
No lost progress.
No extended treatment time.
Third, Smartphone Remote Monitoring.
You scan your teeth with your phone.
AI software analyzes the movement.
I review the data.
I only call you in when something actually needs adjusting.
This is how we slash in office visits by roughly 40 percent.
For a family driving in from Weston or Cooper City, that is real time saved.
Real gas saved.
Real life given back.
Adult Orthodontics and the Miami Glow Up
There is a phrase circulating in South Florida right now.
The "Miami Glow Up."
It refers to that transformation where someone levels up their entire look.
Skin, fitness, style, and almost always, their smile.
I see it every week in our studio.
A professional walks in for Orthodontics for Adults Miami style treatment.
They feel self conscious about crooked teeth that have bothered them for decades.
Six to eighteen months later, they walk out with a smile they cannot stop showing off.
Their confidence in meetings shifts.
Their dating profile photos get updated.
They smile in group pictures without covering their mouth.
We offer options built for the image conscious adult.
Champagne gold brackets that look more like jewelry than orthodontic hardware.
Ceramic clear brackets that blend with your natural tooth color.
Custom 3D printed aligners fabricated right here, not shipped from a warehouse.
For the ultimate discretion, we offer Win Lingual and Inbrace hidden lingual braces.
Brackets bonded behind the teeth.
Completely invisible from the front.
I am one of fewer than 10 doctors in the USA credentialed in the Win Lingual system.
This is not a treatment you want a beginner attempting on you.
When you search for Adult Orthodontics Aventura or Best Orthodontist Miami, you are really searching for expertise you can trust with your professional appearance.
That is exactly what we deliver.
What Our Patients Say About Their Experience

Teens who finished treatment and actually miss coming to the studio.
