Personalized Orthodontic Solutions: As part of your first visit, we vest time in listening to you in order to learn what you need and expect from treatment. Following the initial exam, Dr. Peterman will walk you through his findings: explaining the diagnosis and reviewing treatment options. He will discuss what he recommends and why, answer your questions, and provide the information needed to guide you to a decision that is right for you and your new smile! This open conversation and easy accessibility continues throughout treatment and even years after you’re finished. Dr. Peterman and our team are here to help you, with compassion and integrity.
Advanced Orthodontic Treatment Options: A Diplomate of and board certified by the American Board of Orthodontics, Dr. Peterman provides the latest proven orthodontic options, including clear aligners and Clarity™ Ceramic brackets. His experience, dedication to continual learning, and blending of advanced techniques with individualized care ensure the ideal orthodontic experience and delivers your best smile.
Improving Aesthetics and Oral Health: As you work with Dr. Peterman to develop your treatment plan, he will discuss the impact treatment will have on your oral health. Properly positioned teeth improve the bite and function, and decrease the strain on the jaw joints. In addition, straight teeth are easier to keep clean and healthy with good home dental hygiene practices. You’ll finish your orthodontic journey with a bright, healthy, and beautiful smile!

Extremely professional whilst keeping a ver personal care for their patients.The entire staff is beyond hospitable and clearly know what they are doing.One of their advantages is their location in Chatham which is incredibly convenient, specially in emergencies and follow up appointments.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My family loves Dr. Peterman and his team! I am so thankful that our dentist referred them. They welcomed us with positive energy and caring hearts every single visit. My son was not initially thrilled with the idea of braces, but they made it so fun and treated all of us like we were the only people in the office. He has a perfect smile just in time for Senior Pictures! And, now I get to start my journey too!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had such a great experience with Dr. Peterman and his amazing staff, Bree and Christian. Everyone was incredibly friendly, caring, and understanding from the moment I walked in. I needed to have my braces removed for my upcoming journey with the Navy, and to my surprise, Dr. Peterman himself was a former naval officer! He shared some great advice and made me feel confident and comfortable about the next steps ahead.
I truly appreciate the professionalism and kindness shown by the entire team — they go above and beyond for their patients. Highly recommend Dr. Peterman and his staff to anyone looking for quality orthodontic care!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr. Peterman and his team are second to none!!! From the moment you walk in the door everything is first class. The office is impeccably clean, welcoming and comfortable. I was seated for my appointment promptly, and Dr Peterman helped me understand my orthodontic problems very concisely and offered me different options to achieve my goals. The office is also on the cutting edge of the latest and greatest technology like 3D printing so I didn’t have to take those awful impressions. Dr Peterman is incredibly kind, trustworthy, knowledgeable and just an overall good guy. If you or a family member need to pursue orthodontic care Dr Peterman is who you need to see!!!
