Our Philosophy

It all begins with an ethical philosophy of how to best take care of people. Dr. Schwartz and his staff believe each patient is a unique individual with his or her own treatment needs and goals. They respect and celebrate that fact.

Dr. Schwartz and his staff strive to provide every patient with quality care based on clinical knowledge as well as the understanding that listening closely to their patients' concerns creates beautiful smiles and functional bites to last a lifetime. You can be assured that with 25 years of patient care experience and by using technologically advanced brace systems, your treatment will be a rewarding experience.

Dr. Schwartz's philosophy is to use orthodontic techniques that are both efficient and comfortable for patients. Whenever possible, Dr. Schwartz and his staff strive to take care of all your treatment needs in a single phase of braces. Utilizing the advanced technology of the new "light-force" brace system, Dr. Schwartz seldom needs to extend treatment into multiple phases. By combining several procedures simultaneously, treatment can often take less time and be more cost effective.

The Pioneer Valley's only dual-trained in both orthodontics and pediatric dental specialties, Dr. Schwartz has always been an advocate of Non-extraction Orthodontics. Your treatment planning is directed toward utilizing the body’s natural growth and biology to create space in the dental arch without the need for tooth extraction, whenever possible.
