Meet Daniel M. Allen, DDS MSWelcome! I am excited that you have chosen Allen Orthodontics, and I look forward to having the opportunity to work with you and your family. My approach to orthodontics is simple: treat all patients as I would treat my own family. I believe that modern orthodontics has so much to offer to just about everyone. I stay up-to-date on the latest scientific and therapeutic advances in the field of orthodontics to be able to provide state-of-the-art services to my patients.
It is a joy to see the changes in the lives of my patients because of their orthodontic treatment. I enjoy the relationships with patients and fun time we have together.
