We love Dr Richards and all of his staff they are always absolutely amazing they are always happy and great with my kids. We are just finishing up with one kid's braces and starting the second one He helped my youngest starting at age 5 to make sure she had enough room for her teeth to come in . He helped save my older sons teeth after accident. So he has technically helped with 4 of my kids. On a scale from 1-10 the whole office is a 12.
