What Sets our Bakersfield, CA Orthodontic Practice Apart From the Rest

There are many factors that set Dr. Montano's office above and beyond his competitors. You may already be aware of Dr. Montano's outstanding reputation and commitment to excellence, but did you also know that the level of technology in his office is unrivaled by any other office in Kern county? The reception areas are equipped with large flat panel televisions that display information about the office as well as new products and treatment options offered. Dr. Montano has the only office in Bakersfield with an on-site Radiographic and full service Orthodontic lab. All x-rays, photos, appliances, or repairs that may be needed during the course of your treatment can be completed in one convenient location. Since there are no additional lab or radiology fees, we are able to keep our fees at a reasonable rate. Being a digital office permits us to perform x-rays with the lowest amount of radiation possible and eliminates environmentally hazardous waste that traditional film-based products create. Dr. Montano is a nationally recognized expert in dentofacial orthopedics, thereby being able to balance facial features with an individual's smile.

A fully integrated computer system makes it possible to send appointment reminders directly to your e-mail. Every patient can access their appointment times, records, and account information from home. A large variety of treatment options ensure everyone has the opportunity to get the smile they have always wanted. Dr. Montano offers everything from conventional metal braces to clear braces to Invisalign®, and now SureSmile®. Dr. Montano is the only orthodontist in Kern County awarded the special distinction of Premier Provider by Invisalign year after year. He is also the only orthodontist in Kern County that utilizes SureSmile®, which is the most advanced 3-D computer imaging technology in orthodontics. SureSmile® technology allows Dr. Montano to create virtual treatment and individualized custom-made wires for each patient. It is a means of more personalized care while also shortening treatment time.

To keep things fun there is an incentive program that awards patients points for showing up to every appointment on time. After accumulating points patients can then redeem them for prizes. Periodically patients are able to participate in office games, which present the opportunity to win anything from iPods to movie tickets to gift certificates. The annual skate party allows Dr. Montano and his staff to show their appreciation for the patients, their parents, and any friends who may want to better their smiles as well.
