We’ve got great news! At Smile & Co. Family Orthodontics, we help kids, teens, and adults in Mesquite and Cedar Hill discover confidence through customized treatments tailored to their unique needs.

There’s no head scratching or guess work for our patients. In fact, from the moment you step in the door for your complimentary consultation, our team members will be with you every step of the way! It’s our privilege to help you determine which treatment option is right for your smile based on a variety of factors: ideal treatment length, budget, and lifestyle to name a few!

We proudly accept most insurance coverage to help make your new smile that much more affordable. Our team is trained in maximizing benefits, and we’re happy to help decipher all of that insurance lingo during your complimentary consultation.

Like everything we do, your treatment time and office visits are completely tailored to your care. It’s good to plan for a visit every 4-6 weeks to make sure you’re on track, but Dr. Tongco will provide a treatment schedule designed specifically for you!

Schedule flexibility is a biggie for us, so we’re happy to accommodate your busiest days whenever possible. Our helpful staff are Tetris masters when it comes to fitting in appointments and are glad to see you whenever it’s most convenient. With 2 state-of-the-art offices located near many schools in Mesquite and Cedar Hill, it’s easier than ever to achieve a confident smile without missing school, work, or extracurricular activities! Moreover, we offer a free remote care option that meets busy families where they are, for fewer in-person visits yet more frequent contact with Dr. Tongco and her family of orthodontic pros.

Your experience varies based on what type of treatment you opt for. However, here are some things you can count on when you choose Dr. Tongco as your orthodontist:

• EFFICIENT CARE: No matter what treatment type you choose and what complexities we’re up against with your existing smile, we use every minute of your time with us to help you achieve a confident smile you’re proud to share.
• TEAMWORK: We’d love for you to sit back and relax during your treatment, but the strongest teams require everyone to have skin in the game. While we work our ortho magic, it’s important you comply with all of your doctor’s instructions, attend each appointment, and maintain excellent oral hygiene throughout treatment.

The duration of your orthodontic treatment varies based on your specific needs but typically ranges from 12 to 24 months. We tailor your treatment plan to achieve the best results as efficiently as possible, ensuring you get the smile you deserve in a timeframe that works for you.
