See why choosing us for your smile is the best choice.
Expert Training
Dr. Oral Francis is an orthodontist. Orthodontists are dentists first. Out of 100 dental school graduates, on average, only six go on to become orthodontists.
To practice orthodontics, Dr. Francis spent 11 years in training (four years of college, four years of dental school, and three years of orthodontics residency).
The orthodontic student spends three years learning the skills needed to manage tooth movement and to guide facial development.
Dr. Francis is also a board-certified orthodontist, a designation held by only 30% of orthodontists.
You want an expert orthodontist like Dr. Francis to create your new smile—not from aligners you order through the mail.
Personal Service
From the moment you contact our office to your final retainer check appointment, our goal at Decatur Orthodontics is your complete satisfaction.
Dr. Francis will review your photos and X-rays to find the best way to treat your individual needs.
Then you’ll choose the type of braces you want - traditional metal, clear ceramic, or Invisalign. Our goal at Decatur Orthodontics is not just to give you the smile of your dreams.
We want you to leave our office after every appointment knowing that you got the best possible care.
Comfortable Treatments
Gone are the days of painful headgear, clunky bands on every tooth, and overly tight stainless steel wires. Today's orthodontic treatment is much more comfortable than it used to be. This is because of shape-memory NiTi wires.
With the same technology that NASA uses, NiTi wires exert a continuous force against the teeth to move them in the right direction. This gets rid of the need for wire tightening. This means you spend less time in braces, and the time you do spend is more comfortable.
At Decatur Orthodontics, we take pride in making the process of straightening your teeth as comfortable as possible.
Modern Techniques
Dr. Francis stays up-to-date on the latest in orthodontic treatments and braces technology.
Decatur Orthodontics is your location for modern orthodontic treatment. We offer aesthetic options like ceramic braces and Invisalign for faster and more efficient tooth movement and faster treatment times.

After we’ve determined your insurance coverage and filed it for you, we'll sit down and come up with a monthly payment plan that fits your family’s budget.
You can also get a discount if you pay in full on the front end.

Once you feel like we've answered all of your questions and concerns, you can start your treatment that same day.
