Making You Smile for 60 Years
We've made more smiles than anyone else in the area, so you can trust your smile to us!
Board-Certified Experts
Dr. Glassick and Dr. Hamer are orthodontists. Orthodontists are dentists first. Out of 100 dental school graduates, on average, only six go on to become orthodontists.
To practice orthodontics, Dr. Hamer and Dr. Glassick 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.
On top of that, our doctors are board-certified. That extra training means you're getting expert care.
You want an expert to give you a new smile - not aligners you get in the mail.
Personal Service
From the moment you contact our office to your final retainer check appointment, our goal at Hamer & Glassick Orthodontics is your complete satisfaction.
You'll be cared for as a person, not just a number. Dr. Hamer and Dr. Glassick 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 Hamer & Glassick 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 Hamer & Glassick Orthodontics, we take pride in making the process of straightening your teeth as comfortable as possible.
Modern Techniques
Dr. Hamer and Dr. Glassick are up-to-date on the latest in orthodontic treatment and braces technology.
Hamer & Glassick Orthodontics is the location for modern orthodontic treatment. We offer aesthetic options like ceramic braces and Invisalign. In fact, our office is an Invisalign® Platinum Provider, and we're in the top 5% of the nation in terms of experience and expertise.
That means Hamer & Glassick Orthodontics is Charlottesville's leading Invisalign provider.
We also use high-tech scanning equipment to save you from goopy impressions as well as a 3D printer to give you more efficient tooth movement and faster treatment times.
Flexible Payments
Everyone loves medical offices that offers flexible appointments and flexible treatment options, but we also offer flexible payment options.
We'll go over all of your payment plan options at your initial appointment, so that we can work together to find a plan that fits your family's budget.
You can also get a discount if you pay in full on the front end.
Convenient Locations
With state-of-the-art offices in Charlottesville and Crozet, you can get a new smile only a few minutes from your home, work or school.
