out of Read Reviews for Dr. Anthony Costa
My daughter had expander & braces, $6,000.
I would recommend Dr. Costa with reservations.
He did a good job with my daughter's braces. He was conservative in expanding her bite and that was very good--we were concerned about over-expanding and changing the looks of her face.
It would have been nice if the dental assistants flossed her teeth in between putting new wires in--I asked them to do this but they always gave me attitude.
Dr. Costa fell short for 2 reasons: 1. a year into a 2-year plan for braces, he started telling my daughter that she could get her braces off months early and then had to tell her that she needed to keep her braces on to hold her teeth in place longer. That switch caused a lot of tears and problems at home.
2. after taking her braces off, he filed her top & bottom teeth without my permission! Now her top 2 teeth look stubby short and her bottom teeth are flat straight across--it looks very unnatural! Now, he's suggesting I put braces back on her top teeth to pull them down. :(

Very inflexible. Doesn't work Friday's.
In the summer, only works 3 days a week in July.
Impossible to get an appointment that fits child's school
schedule.
Patient overload; it's like a factory. Course of treatment never
clear, changes consistently.
Referrals to other dentists is a business arrangement,
and not based on qualifications.

I call Dr. Costa the Orthodontist for the stars because that is the way he and his staff made me feel. The payment plan was manageable and the treatment was exceptional. I had personalized care throughout. I am 44 and I highly recommend this office for anyone of any age.
