why choose us

Thorough Initial Exam

We want you to have the most information possible when deciding which Orthodontist is right for you and your family. That's why we offer complimentary, obligation-free consultations. We are here for you and are happy to answer all of your questions.

Orthodontic Specialization

Dr. Maxfield is an Orthodontic specialist. After graduating as a dentist, he chose to specialize in Orthodontics and completed an extra two years of training.  Dr. Maxfield and our entire staff focus solely on Orthodontics so you can expect the most effective treatments. Dr. Maxfield shares his passion for Orthodontics with his knowledgeable team, who also take great pride in the smiles they create. 

Individual Treatment and The Maxfield Smile

We treat all of our patients as if they are a member of our own family. Every patient is unique, and Dr. Maxfield customizes treatments to ensure their best smile. Dr. Maxfield is a perfectionist, and we believe Maxfield Smiles have certain traits that make them different from some other Orthodontist's smiles.  
Smile arc

Healthy looking, natural smile that follows the lip line. We avoid overly flat teeth!

​

Broad smiles

​

Dr. Maxfield loves to create a beautiful full smile. To do this, we avoid extracting permanent teeth in most cases. We pay close attention to the angulation of the teeth and make sure to avoid "flared" teeth. 

​

Contouring of the Teeth and Gums

​

Each smile is unique, and we strive to not provide the same "cookie-cutter" look on each patient. Dr. Maxfield spends extra time at the end of treatment, shaping the gums with his laser. We don't charge anything extra for this service, and our patients are very appreciative of the fantastic result. You would be surprised at how much of a difference this can make!

Cutting Edge Technology

We use the newest techniques in our treatment!
Our Damon braces are the latest and greatest in bracket technology!  We love how healthy our teeth and roots are at the end of treatment as a result of the light forces that we use with this system! We also like the efficiency of this new technology in moving teeth! It is incredible what less friction will do in some cases! 

Invisalign keeps improving, and our patients love their results! It is so awesome to have another great option for moving teeth! 
iTero scanner! No more gooey impressions. Now a simple scan is all we need!

Retainers

We want your Maxfield Smile to last a lifetime! That's why we always include four retainers in your treatment. We bond a permanent retainer on the upper and lower teeth, and we also include an upper and lower removable retainer to be worn at night. 

Patient Experience

We try hard to make your orthodontic appointments something you can look forward to. We continuously have in-office contests running where you can win some pretty cool prizes. You can also earn prizes by participating in our MaxCash patient rewards program. You can play video games or watch the latest movie release, and our Cottonwood Heights patients can even shoot some hoops while waiting for their appointment.
