Patient Reviews
"My teeth look amazing I’m really happy with the service after having braces earlier in life my teeth seemed to be out of alignment but Dr. Cox team put together a plan to bring my luster alignment back to life"
"Every office of Cox Orthodontics that I took my granddaughter too the staff was always very friendly, North Charleston, Summerville, and last, but not least Goose Creek treated Brooklynn (my granddaughter), with respect. I highly recommend them, their pricing for braces were great, financial plan was easy to pay."
"We had a great first visit with Dr. McAllister. Jessie and Dr. McAllister were both great with my son during our consultation for braces. They explained things well and were very friendly!"
"Dr. Cox and team provided great service and paid close attention to details. We have had a great 2 years with them. My daughter gets her braces off in a few weeks! Thanks Dr. Cox for my daughter’s beautiful smile 😃."
"I love my smile so much after having my braces removed. My bite is perfect and Dr. Cox and his staff are wonderful. I highly recommend this office for your orthodontic treatment."
"We have had an amazing experience with Cox Orthodontics! Every doctor and staff member has been incredibly helpful, supportive, and attentive throughout the entire treatment process. They truly take the time to make sure you and your child are comfortable, informed, and happy every step of the way.We are currently on our third round of braces with our daughters, and each experience has been exceptional. We will absolutely be returning when it’s time for our youngest daughter to begin treatment.One thing we especially appreciate is how willing they are to work with families financially. They take the time to discuss payment options and help find a plan that works best for your budget, making the journey to a beautiful smile much less stressful.What truly sets Cox Orthodontics apart is the genuine care they show their patients. They treat you like family rather than just another appointment on the schedule. In a world where so many healthcare offices feel rushed and impersonal, Cox Orthodontics goes above and beyond to make you feel valued and cared for. We are so grateful to have found a practice that combines outstanding orthodontic care with such kindness, compassion, and professionalism. Highly recommend.The image below shows my 9 year old daughter on day 1 of braces to day 30 of wearing braces!!! Truly impressive"
"Absolutely stellar experience from initial phone call for consult thru brace placement. Dr. Cox and his staff made this momma feel like it was her daughter’s special day and he even called to check on us that evening personally to make sure everything was settling in well. There’s a reason this Charleston Orthodontist dominates the Lowcountry with braces by cox stickers all over town!"
"When we looked for an orthodontist we were nervous because my son had already had them on for a year but we moved and needed a new orthodontist. Dr. Cox made us feel like it was no problem and I feel is more productive with moving his teeth. We’ve seen wonderful changes this past year. They are very upfront of the cost and duration of time for the braces to be on. If you set up a payment plan with them they give you a couple options which I thought was wonderful. Normally it just auto drafts on the date you started, but having the option to choose which paycheck would be better for you was amazing and helped us out a lot.They are a wonderful office to be a patient of. They truly care about each of their patients and are very understanding of you/your kids be humans, making mistakes, needing schedule changes due to illness, etc. Our oldest is the one using there services but there is an area of games and coloring stuff for kids to use, which our other kids use when they wait on their brother. The office is very calming place to be in. You don’t get that normal stressful office vibe from them. We will use them again if our other kids need orthodontic care."
"Dr Cox and his team were literally the BESTTTT! They made me feel extremely comfortable because I was so nervous! Getting my braces on was extremely quick and they made sure I was ok and comfortable throughout the whole appointment. The best part for me however was the fact that Dr Cox personally reached out to me after my appointment to see how I was doing. I thought that was very different than any Doctor I’ve ever been to. 10/10 all across the board from the front desk to all the nurses and Dr Cox Himself!!"
"My first time getting braces and it was fast and painless. Doctor Cox and his staffs are amazing...."
"Dr. Cox and his staff went over and beyond with my daughter. From the extra time to explain the plan for her teeth, which she was very overwhelmed by, to the checking in phone call, the day of my daughter got her braces. I’m grateful for all they have done to make this experience wonderful for my daughter!"
"I came here as a child & my son comes now too for braces. Dr. Cox is very thorough & caring. He even left a voicemail the first night my son had braces just to check on him. His staff is professional & kind. I recommend anyone to come here for braces where they take care of you."
"Wonderful experience so far! My 11 year old had her braces put on today, she left the office knowing how to take care of her teeth and looking forward to returning for her next visit.

Supportive staff that explain everything in a bright and happy office. Highly recommend this office location."

They quickly got me in and everything done, with little wait! Goose creek office is easy to get to, is very clean and has a welcoming environment. Also, I was quite impressed with how efficiently run the practice is.

My daughter loved the games in the waiting room and all the staff are SO nice. Dr. Cox and his team are AMAZING!"

Mackenzie also did a great job and made me smile the whole time. I can't imagine having gone somewhere else to get my braces done"
"I can’t say enough good things aboutDr John is AMAZING. He is so friendly and attentive, and a perfectionist with our teeth. My daughter originally started her journey With braces at another orthodontist office here in the area after many appointments running over 30 minutes late and then never being able to get her in if a wire broke we switched To Cox orthodontics. Besides Dr. Jon being amazing the girls that work with him are super sweet and attentive. I would recommend them to anyone and I have."
"I’ve been transitioning back to the area along with having had a less-than-favorable experience with my previous ortho in Savannah. After shopping around for a few orthodontist in Charleston to continue my treatment, I came across Cox and they really eased my anxiety around so many things, including the price (since I’m paying out of pocket and basically starting over), the service, and the course of treatment. They explain what’s happening and what you need, which is not something I’ve had before, even though I already have braces. Thanks Dr. Pauly(sp?) and staff for bringing back hope to me!"
"Ms. Kim and Ms Shannon are awesome they really worked with me to get my braces taken off on my first day of starting care thank you guys your the best"

"Last week on the 22nd my 9 year old is starting the braces process and during the consult Dr. Cox and his assistant was so friendly and professional. He even asked me twice (I'm assuming it was just to make sure ) if it was ok for him to take my daughter to look at all the colors choices that they have for braces why I took care of the financial paperwork. Today the 30th we went back for spaces and the two techs were AMAZING! I'm really liking them so far. If anything changes I will update my review."
"Dr.Cox and his staff went above and beyond for me. About half way through my treatment I fell behind on payments and my braces where left unattended. When I got to a place where I could pay everything off Dr.Cox and his staff welcomed me back with open arms and I even managed to finish treatment on schedule. It’s been 5 or so years and I still can’t get enough of my smile."

My son was finished in two years & we're so happy that he can't pop peas through his front teeth! Really a classy office. Thank you for giving my children confidence to smile."

"NOTHING SHORT OF A TERRIFIC EXPERIENCE EVERY STEP OF THE WAY:).... If you have been searching for a professional, affordable, fun and CLEAN Orthodontist office you found it! I have 2 daughters, one who has just recently had her braces removed and another who is going to have braces put on. We live in Mount Pleasant but I would not even think of taking my girls anywhere else as this personable environment is well worth the drive! This practice far exceeded my expectations when I first moved here from the West Coast. The entire staff are ALWAYS friendly, energetic and genuinely care about each and every one of their patients.
