Cedar Hawk Ranch Boer G.
Dr Galante and everyone in the office has been amazing through my 20 month Invisalign experience, they made it possible to get my gaps closed, and my bite fixed without jaw surgery. Couldn’t have been more happier with my experience and the outcome of my teeth with Invisalign. If you want orthodontist work done Dr Galante is the one to go to!! Hands down the best in the business 100% recommend to anyone.
Kim C.
Everyone there is amazing. I got Invisalign as an adult and they made the whole process so easy! Everything is perfectly timed and the few times I needed them in between appointments, they were quick to get me in. I honestly wouldn’t go anywhere else. If I could give more stars I would!
Jeanette A.
My experience at Cater Galante Orthodontics has been amazing. The staff is always so welcoming and knowledgeable. I now have the perfect smile I have always dreamed of. Also, they provide teeth whitening, which I absolutely love!! Please check this place out! You won’t regret it!

Great orthodontics office with knowledgeable and friendly doctors and techs.
Shannon G.
We absolutely love Cater Galante orthodontist! They truly know how to make new patients and patients in general, feel welcomed and taken care of. My 14 year old has had such a positive experience and all the ladies in the office love seeing him everytime he comes in. Affordable rates and plans available, plus discounts for new patients-typically. We recommend 10/10!
Callie M.
I had a great experience! I had my permanent retainer pop out that was put in 12 years ago by other orthodontist across the country. I called Dr. Caters office explained my situation and they told me they would be able to see me asap. I called on Monday they had me scheduled for Wednesday of the same week! The staff was extremely friendly and transparent about pricing. Dr. Cater was very informative and kind . He explained how they don’t use the type of retainers I had anymore (it’s the older bar) but mine wasn’t damaged from coming out and he was more than happy to rebond mine back into place since all that broken was the bonded glue. He took the time to explain what he thought and what he wanted to do. It took him less than 20 minutes to clean off the old bonded glue, reset my retainer and rebond it and I was good to go! He was incredibly personable and understanding. I could not recommend his office or staff enough! Clear pricing, quick turn around, kind staff, you really cannot get better experience going to the orthodontist than that !
