Amy B.

Dr. Richards is the best orthodontist! He is very attentive and is very personable! His knowledge is outstanding! I have recommended many friends and family to him.

I came here in with braces because I moved states and my braces were in bad condition.But they repaired my teeth looks like I been going to them the whole time. I am so happy with my smile and have gained a lot of my confidence back. Michael Richard and his staff are the best. They were so welcoming and never judge I don’t what i would’ve done without them.

Response from the owner:Thank you for your kind words Anthony! We are so happy we were able to help you finish your treatment, We werent there at the start, but we are glad we got to be there for the end! Congrats on getting those braces off!

Spencer D.

Now that this is my fifth and final experience with braces, I can honestly say I wish I had brought all of them to your team from the start. The service has been outstanding, and I’m genuinely grateful to have found your practice. I would enthusiastically recommend you to anyone.

Response from the owner:Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us review, we would have loved the honor of treating all of your kids, but we are lucky we got to treat at least one of you!

Jack F.

I look so beautiful now. I think after their service I could actually get married. The best!

Response from the owner:We are so happy you love your smile! Dr. Richards will want an invitation to the wedding ;) Go show off that smile!

I had a button pop off and was going to be across the country from my normal orthodontists for 6 weeks. Michael Richards orthodontics was so helpful in offering to glue the button back on for me! They saved me from 6 weeks of not being able to wear my elastics!

Aside from how helpful they were with this, their office is very nicely decorated and everything clean and new. All the staff were wonderful as well! Haley was so kind and also very quickly was able to put the button back on for me

Id highly recommend this place if you’re in need of an orthodontist

Response from the owner:We are so happy we were able to help you with that button! We are always happy to help other aligner patients with their emergencys, thank you for trusting us. If you have any emergencys in the future please do not hesitate to reach out!

They did a great job fixing my teeth. Not hard to make an appointment when you need to come in. They have coloring pages in the office if you have a velcro girlfriend (or a kid) like me that comes everywhere with you and needs to be occupied. 10/10

Response from the owner:We are so grateful you took the time to write us a review! Come color a coloring page anytime! ;) Go show off your new smile!

Another lovely visit at MRO so I wanted to write a review. What stands out to me is the doctor and staff’s exceptional care and patience with each child in their care. My son has anxiety and sensory processing issues which means he needs to really understand what’s going to happen in his mouth and sometimes take extended breaks while work is being done. The staff is so kind throughout this - taking the extra time to explain, chatting with him while he calms before resuming work. Never once have I felt that they were exasperated or trying to rush during over a year of care. I started watching and listening in at other appointments too - the calm, thoughtful engaging way that Dr Richards has around talking through options - not in a shaming way but in a realistic, here is what’s needed, what can you do way? The practice was also lovely in working with insurance and financing options. I can’t say enough wonderful things about the care received.

Response from the owner:Thank you so much for taking the time to write about your experience at your last appointment, your kind words mean so much to us! We look forward to seeing you for his next appointment!

I cannot say enough good things about everything regarding my treatment at Dr. Richards' office!

My case was complex, requiring jaw surgery (that I'd known I needed since I was a teenager) and some veneer work. Given the professional nature of my career, having Invisalign (or a similar product) was a requirement - Dr. Richards did an amazing job at developing a plan, recommending and coordinating with my dentist and jaw surgeon, and ensuring my results were perfect. On top of all of this, I relocated for work near the end of my treatment; once again, he and his team did a great job of coordinating with me to fit me into the tight windows during which I was able to travel back to Salt Lake City to finish treatment.

Amazing experience in every regard - and I always felt like I wasn't pressured or trying to be upsold. I paid a price that I felt was totally fair, especially given the complexity of my case!

The last thing I wanted to share was that, as I was recovering from jaw surgery in the hospital (which was a process entirely owned by the jaw surgeon), Dr. Richards personally stopped by the first night (after my friends / visitors left for the day) and gave me a gift card to Jamba Juice and a card signed his staff! He totally didn't have to do that! Wanted to share that story as I think it reflects how awesome of a practitioner and person Dr. Richards is!!!

Thank you so much Dr Richards and staff!!!

Response from the owner:Grant, it was an honor treating you! Thank you for trusting us with your care, we love getting to serve patients as grateful and kind as you. We wish you all the best in your adventures to come!

Kim M.

The service at the Salt Lake location is supportive and consistent. I had three separate friends. Tell me that we should go to this office because they have had the best experience there. I agree!

Response from the owner:Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, we are honored you chose us for yout treatment! We look forward to seeing your new smile!

Grayson H.

Dr. Richard’s has been perfecting my smile since 10 years ago! He just fixed my permanent retainer that snapped and made sure it was perfect before I left, I won’t ever go to another orthodontist!

Response from the owner:Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review, we are so happy we could help you get a new retainer!

I decided to get braces when I was in my early 60s. I interviewed three Orthodontists. I chose Dr. Richards. I've been very grateful ever since. I just returned to Dr. Richards because my permanent retainer broke. It was delightful to go back! What great people with amazing knowledge and ability. I'd give them 100 stars if I could.

Response from the owner:Thank you so much for leaving us a review, we are happy we were able to help you. Thank you so much for choosing us, we are honored!

Veronica P.

Literally some of the best people I’ve ever encountered. They made my entire experience so easy, and somehow knew exactly what concerns I had before I ever voiced it. My teeth are so straight, it’s almost embarrassing to smile. 16356/10.

Marie P.

Hanna is the best, she made my essperience fun, and I am afraid of the dentist. Please go here and ask for her, she's amazing!!!! Love the staff and the building is clean!!!!

Ashlyn O.

Great experience all around! Everybody is super friendly and knowledgeable. The space is clean and fun for kids.

Jaime G.

I cannot recommend this Orthodontist office enough. Staff takes care of you and gives you the undivided attention that you deserve. They will answer all your questions making sure that you are presented with the best options for you and your smile!

Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your kind works Jaime! We are always so happy to help!
