Our mission has remained unchanged since first opening our doors-to provide affordable orthodontic treatment while never sacrificing quality. We believe that anyone who comes in-patients and parents-should leave our office with a smile. One visit and you'll quickly see how serious we are about this mission-working every day to fulfill it through expertise and passion, and doing it all with smiles on our faces, too.
During your free consultation, our team will outline the total cost of treatment and guide you through financial options. Whether or not you have insurance, we've got you covered. And we make the process straightforward so you can make the best decision for you and your family.

Mission
Report
To understand how Birmingham Orthodontics became what it is today- a multi-doctor practice with 60 employees spread across 4 locations-you have to go back to the beginning.
While serving his country in the United States Army, our founder, Dr. McCarthy, was searching for quality orthodontic treatment for his daughter.
To his dismay, he soon discovered that because of high treatment prices and the lack of available financial options (options like no-down payment, lower monthly payments, and interest-free financing), orthodontic procedures were basically unaffordable to most people on military salaries.

Be confident: Giving your child the smile they were meant to have gives them the confidence to become who they were meant to be.
Be cool: While some adults with braces might be shy with their smile, kids love to show off their new gear-especially with options like color bands and gold braces!
