Shabir H.
I had an excellent experience over nearly two years of treatment at this orthodontic clinic. The entire team, from Cathy to Kerry and the dental assistants Jenny and Jennifer provided exceptional customer service, and Dr. James Scramstad is both friendly and professional. Every step of the process was clearly explained, and the care was always thorough and personalized. Highly recommend!
terrencemykytiw
I am pleased to share my outstanding experience at Straight Smiles, which exceeded my expectations from previous visits to three other orthodontists. Dr. James and his staff demonstrated exceptional professionalism, efficiency, and provided a significantly lower quote. The modern office space is bright and well-located. I highly recommend Straight Smiles to anyone looking to improve their smile and confidence.
Sandra A.
Dr. Scramsted and his wonderful team have been amazing throughout the process of getting my teeth straight. From being greeted with my name, by Cathy and Kerry, each time I had an appointment to being looked after with a big smile by Jenny, Jennifer and Vanessa. Dr. Scramsted goes above and beyond and is super professional and caring. I love my new smile and I would recommend Straight Smiles to anyone needing braces.
Jadon B.
Best & most nice people work here. Dr. Scramstad goes above and beyond to make sure that his patients are happy. So efficient, so effective. I will rave about this orthodontist office to everyone! Amazing service & amazing people
Cheyenne M.
I cannot express enough how grateful I am for the team at previously Align now Straight Smiles. Every single time they are the sweetest earth angels I have ever met. Ever single time they manage to go above and beyond. This time of year is very hard for a lot of people and they always make sure to make you feel loved even for 20 minutes. I cannot express enough how grateful I am for the team to take care of me. Straight Smiles deserves the world and best in Kelowna! Every single time I leave, with a straight smile!! Even an happy tear sometimes, I know not everyone has the privilege, kindness goes so far and they always take it to the next level. I owe them, they deserve the biggest thank you ever. I will be back to drop off donations for Christmas for families. They really put the Christmas Cheer in this time of year. 10/10 just made my whole day 🥰
brooke I.
I started my treatment back in September and this place has the BEST customer service I have ever seen! I am constantly telling my friends and family on how friendly and knowledgeable everyone is! I still have a long ways to go with my Invisalign but get excited every time I have an appointment with them. I will continue to spread the word on how amazing they are!
Alyssa W.
Great staff, amazing service, and much cheaper than other places that offer the same services! We travel from Armstrong to go here because we get the best care for our daughter’s teeth at the best price!!
Amy F.
I am so grateful for Dr. Scramstad and his AMAZING team. They have been looking after me for years as my teeth have been rather difficult to move. They never gave up, and always went above and beyond to do what was needed to make my smile perfect! HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Also, I did a lot of research beforehand and have talked to a lot of people - they are THE BEST at what they do, but also have the best affordability in Kelowna.
Morgan R.
Everyone was lovely from the moment I walked in, I haven’t been here before and had braces over 15 years ago with permanent retainers put in. Jennifer and Dr.Scramstad educated me on the different options available now for retainers and I left happy with the service I received and will definitely come back here for any orthodontic questions or changes!
Josh D.
I don’t know even know where to begin! Dr. Scramstad and his amazing team have been phenomenal and have given me my confidence back with an amazing smile. I truly am so thankful for this amazing team of dental professionals. If you are considering getting braces, definitely check out Straight Smiles - you will be welcomed with open arms, able to express your concerns freely, have an amazing team that is there to support you, and leave with a perfect straight smile. Big gratitude to Dr. Scramstad and team :)
Nicola N.
I finally, at the age of 60, realised my dream of having straight teeth. Dr Scramstad and his wonderful team are professional and friendly. I was always greeted by name and never kept waiting for my appointments. I am so happy with my new smile and would recommend Straight Smiles to anyone wanting an enjoyable orthodontic experience.
