Meet Our DoctorsWhen I first came to Smile Orthodontics, I was 11 years old, and my smile had a lot of work to do. By the time I was done being treated, my smile was exactly how I wanted it to look. With my new, big smile, I gained a lot of confidence in myself. Overall, my time at Smile Orthodontics was life-changing and very enjoyable.Kendall S.

First appointment 14 year old son was taken back while I was still doing the paper work. When I turned in the paper work I asked about my son and was never told I could go back. He comes out and I am told they are done. They will call with an appointment when braces are approved through the insurance. The next call I receive is to have my sons braces put on. I am never allowed to meet the dentist, discuss prices or options. When I ask about this process I am told you don't meet the dentist. I am also told I was supposed to get more information on my first visit. Well some one should of allowed me to be with my son, Remember this is a minor.
All of this is happening on a phone with a secretary not a dentist. When I asked is this the normal process I was told yes. I was also told the X rays, molds and everything else was done on the first visit and all that is left is to put the braces on. I again asked to speak to a dentist about cost and Invisalign before we schedule his braces, I was told that wouldn't happen. I told them to cancel my appointment and remove me from their files because I wasn't comfortable with the way they do business. I asked to pick up my medical records and the molds seeing they had been paid for. Then the secretary says we never made molds. What's going on here? Looks like all they care about is the billing. If you want to be treated like cattle this is the place for you!!!

This is a great place to go for braces. They always took great care of my son. They seemed fast and efficient. I had an emergency once late evening, they met me and my son, and took care of the problem. I would recommend them.

If I could shout it from the roof tops I would.....If you are in need of braces this is the place you most definitely want.
The people are complete ANGELS...they have made our journey a piece of cake. They are willing to guide you, answer any questions, hold your hand and walk this journey with you. I love Smile Orthodontic. I have not met Dr. HEARNE yet, but Dr. TAYLOR IS OUT OF THIS WORLD FANTASTIC . AS WELL AS HIS STAFF.

The staff is very friendly and answers all questions asked with complete answers. They always ask do we have any questions at the conclusion of the visit. We’ve never had to wait a long time at our appointments. Dr Taylor is very personable and always makes you feel relaxed while sitting in the chair. I would recommend this office to anyone who needs it.

Very toxic work environment. Might look nice from a patient perspective, but a terrible place to work. The girls have their own clicks and gang up on one person. I would stay AWAY from this place, considering the Dr is very sexual to the woman in the facility. TERRIBLE!!!

Dr. Taylor and his staff are excellent! Courteous, professional, timely ... and just fantastic with kids! They explain things simply and thoroughly and put us at ease every time. I am confident with their knowledge and skill. Most importantly they are kind and compassionate! I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend them!

Our experience with Dr. Steven Hearne has been excellent. All four of my children have had orthodontic treatment under Dr. Hearne. He has always provided our family with a plan of treatment that has transformed and enhanced their smiles. The staff is always welcoming, friendly, caring & professional. I would definitely recommend Smile Orthodontics to family & friends!

My son got his braces here and they did a great job-- very thorough...if it looked even remotely like teeth were moving or whatever, they were immediately on it. We tended to have Meagan when he was seen and she was great but even when he saw the other girls they were all pleasant and took the time to chat with him, see how his day was and were really kind 🙂 He has finally gotten them off- his teeth look great! Very happy with the process 🙂

My daughter and I absolutely love Smile Orthodontics! As a parent, I have worn braces, as well as, my older son, so I've actually had the opportunity to experience other orthodontists in the past. With that being said, I can truly say that Dr. Taylor, Dr. Hearne and the staff are phenomenal! From the very moment that you step into their office, until you exit, they display nothing but, professionalism, compassion, respect, patience and amazing knowledge! I honestly feel that my daughter is in very good hands and I would highly recommend this practice if you are in need of orthodontic care.

Great service. Doctor Taylor was very particular in the best way to make sure my teeth and bite would be the best they could in the future. Taylor and Meagan were also great! They both explained things well and Meagan was very gentle when getting molds.

My experience at this office was very pleasant.
My son and I were greeted with a smile and the atmosphere was very warm, friendly, inviting and most of all nerve calming...lol
My son has been very nervous about getting his braces but the introduction lesson of his new “hygiene care world” was nicely given and details were clearly explained. Being a patient here has started this process off on a positive note.

Both of my children receive orthodontic treatment here. The staff is always so nice, personable, and friendly. They make you feel very welcome. I can already see a change in my daughter's teeth, and I am confident that they are receiving the best treatment possible.

Smile Orthodontics Harbor Breeze office is Awesome!! The staff are very knowledgeable and friendly!! I definitely recommend this place of business! My son just got his braces on today. The first part of the appointment was very informative, they talked about hygiene, care and price. They answered all my questions. They also went above and beyond to make my son comfortable:)

All 3 of our daughters have had braces and after care with Dr. Taylor.The girls have been his patients from the start of his practice at Smile. He and his staff have been so caring and the ultimate professionals. Any and all questions we have had have been answered promptly, professionally & courteously. Dr. Taylor wants his patients to be pleased (and I think HE wants to be pleased) with the outcome of his treatment. He listens to make his patients happy. My husband and I recommend Dr. Taylor’s practice often to our friends with ortho needs as the place to go for orthodontic care. We tell people he is the best because he is.

They have a great team! Today my son got braces put on and they spent an entire hour going over the process, procedures, hygiene requirements and costs. My son was very nervous and they took extra steps to make sure he was comfortable and could ask questions. Braces are such a big investment, you need to trust that the people doing the work care about your concerns and act in you and your child's best interest. You can trust this team! I could only pick one name, but Shanna, Dr. Taylor, Taylor and the Front Desk team all deserve kudos.

My daughter came in for her initial braces appt. Taylor was very thorough and super personable. She helped make my daughter feel more at ease with understanding the process and really took time to make us feel welcome, instead of rushed. All of the staff is super friendly and the atmosphere is very inviting!

I had a rough start the day I got my braces on about 2-3 weeks ago because I felt it was lack of communication with the first point of contact as to what was going on. Then I got introduce to Stephanie. She turned that whole negative start into an awesome,relax visit. Thank you Stephanie for being so detailed with what you were about to do. Very sweet and compassionate young lady. Excellent customer service skills,with that you will go a long way! The most important thing she did was introduce herself instead of just jumping in my mouth as the previous young attempted to do. I look forward to seeing her my next visit.

I have a difficult situation going on and today I was there for 3 and a half hours. Through it all, I had a team of the utmost courteous and professional staff that you could imagine. Both physicians (Dr. Hearne and Dr. Taylor), as well as their assistants worked diligently to get my issue resolved. They even consulted with my specialist and told me they would be on standby if I needed anything. If you need orthodontic treatment, this is the only place I would recommend to anyone. My daughter will need braces in the next couple years and no one else but Smile Orthodontics will be seeing her. They make me enjoy my braces. Thank you to the whole office for all you do. I greatly appreciate you all and look forward to the next time I get to see you.

I have been coming to Taylor Orthodontics for over five years now. The Dentists and their team is nothing short of amazing. This organization makes you feel like family and knows how to have a good time. Today I have brought my children here to be apart of the family as they begin their braces treatments and we look forward to seeing the awesome smiles they will have in the end. This place is a sure thing, so if anyone is looking for an orthodontic team that treats you with quality while still having fun, Taylor Orthodontics is the place. It’s even worth the drive if you live on the other side. We do it routinely 🙂

Dr. Taylor is currently treating me and my son for braces. I really didn't know what to expect at first. I am very pleased with the work he has done thus far. Dr. Taylor always has a smile on his face and asks us questions, which shows he is very passionate and thorough regarding his work. He knows the importance of making sure my son and I understand the process. I thank you Dr. Taylor, for putting our minds at ease and for making this moment in our lives enjoyable! We really appreciate you!!

My daughter has been seen at this office for over three years. She went quickly from having large gaps to having a completely different smile. In only two years her braces were off and she is now in retainers. She has a beautiful smile thanks to them. I love how prompt and courteous they are. The office is friendly and welcoming and they are incredibly time efficient! Thank you for such great work!

My experience with Taylor Orthodontics was amazingly good. I love the office and the staff. My son was a patient here first and they done such a great job with his teeth I had to join in.

I was very skeptical to begin my journey to the “perfect smile”, but Dr. Taylor has made this experience wonderful! His excellent staff worked together to evaluate my unique case and develope the best plan for me. This team laid everything out for me making sure that I understood every detail and are always there to answer my questions. They never fail to deliver excellent customer service, their facility is very well maintained and the atmosphere during every visit is nothing short of welcoming. They stay true to your appointment times and I do not believe that I have ever waited longer than 5 minutes, if ever at all! I normally see Dr. Taylor and Shawna- they always greet me with a smile and engage in true conversation. I was also nervous about how much this work would cost, but they have made it so easy for me to tackle this plan in a way that benefits me well! I could not be happier with the orthodontic care that I have received and I have spoken very highly of this practice to everyone that has inquired about my dental work! I cannot wait to see the end result and thank you to everyone that has had a hand in making this journey as pleasant as it could possibly be!

When I was first told that I needed braces at my age I thought it was going to be hard. This process and been the smoothest that I have seen and I owe it all to Dr. Taylor and his staff. They provide timely service and they make you feel right at home. I would recommend this location to anyone thinking about getting or needing braces.

I literally loved going to my orthodontist appointment! Because they took great care of me and every employee was extremely nice. Great music was always plying and smiles and jokes would fill the room. And then at the end when it’s time for your braces they had like this little celebration room, with candy and would take your pictures. Also they would sing to you! How cool. Dr Taylor and ladies were the best. Would absolutely recommend anyone to them

Today visit was wonderful. The staff (Alona) was very helpful and understanding when my child had no idea where she lost her retainer. At this time of the year, they were able to work with me to replace her retainer. I truly enjoy working with this great staff. My daughter loves coming to the office. Thanks again for the great experience.
