You don’t stay in business in anything for over half a century unless your doing a few things right. But what truly sets Tulsa orthodontists at Kirkpatrick & Lai Orthodontics apart from other Tulsa orthodontists? In this article we will take some time to explain what we think some of the key factors are in why we have experienced success for so long. We know you have a lot of options when it comes to your orthodontic care. In the next few paragraphs we hope to explain what sets us apart and why.

The first thing that sets us apart; is our approach to patient care and communication. To us the first and most important value of any orthodontic practice should be how it treats its patients. We think that patients recieve the best care when they are encouraged to ask questions and engage in a dialogue about their care options. Every patient is unique. We take the time to ask the right questions and get to know our patients. This allows us to maximize our care for the most dynamic results.

The other thing that sets us apart is our relentless pursuit for ways to give back to our communities and the state that we all live in. We believe that the best way to make this state an incredible place to live in, is to work together to make it great. We desire to reach out and help others. That’s why we started, “Giving Smiles, Giving Birthdays.” It is our way of teaming up with Royal Family Kids Camp in their efforts to help bring joy and laughs to kids in the Oklahoma foster care system. For every new patient we recieve we will make a $10 donation to Royal Family Kids Camp. It’s just one way in which we can help give back and make Oklahoma a better place.

The other thing that sets us apart is our commitment to quality orthodontic products. We believe that our patients deserve the best braces and orthodontic appliances available today. This is why we are proud to get all of our braces from American Orthodontics. American Orthodontics designs, builds, sells and services 100% of its products here in the US. They make outstanding products like Radiance invisible braces, which are the most effective and transparent braces available today. They also help give great jobs to over 400 American workers. We think our patients deserve the best and we think the best products on earth are made right here in the USA. It’s just one more thing that sets us apart from the rest of the people in our field. To learn more about what sets us apart call 918-747-1346.

When you give the gift of the smile, it tends to spread. We think thats the way it should be. A gift is always better when you can pass it on. That why Tulsa orthodontists at Kirkpatrick & Lai Orthodontics started “Giving Smiles, Giving Birthdays.” For every new patient we recieve we donate $10 to Royal Family Kids Camp. Royal Family Kids Camp helps kids who have had a rough start in life experience the joy of an incredible birthday. We love helping them impact the lives of children in Oklahoma.

By treating our patients with respect and taking time to get to know their needs we have built an outstanding reputation in the Oklahoma communities we serve. It all comes back again to our commitment to give the gift of a smile to people in Oklahoma.

Tulsa orthodontists at Kirkpatrick & Lai Orthodontics believe that communication is the most important factor in quality patient care. Communication has to be a two way street. Many orthodontist take the classroom lecture approach when dealing with their patients. They talk and tell the patient whats best and expect them to listen and comply. We take a different approach. We encourage our customers to ask questions and help them know about the best orthodontic practices available for their situation. We stay connected with our patients in innovative ways through phone, text, and social media. It’s all about having great communication in everything we do.

You probably understand by now that we are not just any ordinary orthodontic practice! We are committed to excellence and integrity about how we do things. We stay focused on our patients needs and concerns. We reach out to our community and look for ways to make things better. These are just some of the ways in which we are showing ourselves to be leaders in orthodontic care in Oklahoma.
