"Dr. Ting and Staff are always upbeat, supportive and positive. They make each experience for my 12 and 8 year old stress free by explaining what treatment will take place at the appt. As a parent, I am impressed with Dr. Ting's positive reward system. My kids enjoy earning "Ting Bucks" to spend in his "store" for good hygeine, being on time for appts etc...As a family, we are so grateful for the care we are receiving. "

"We had 3 consultations by orthodontists and Dr Tings was the most acceptable to us. One doctor wanted to do nothing and wait and mabey have to break his jaw later and another wanted to wait for 5 years. Dr Tings plan was immediate and quick and had wonderful results. 2 years later and my son has perfect teeth and a great smile. The orignal plan was for a second phase, but there might not even be a need for it. His teeth look great. The staff is friendly and helpful. Dr Ting is kid friendly and very informative. In his office you can play video games while you wait, eat fresh baked cookies. Earn Ting Bucks to turn in for awesome prizes. We love Dr Ting and would suggest him to all of our friends and family.

First, your dentist will determine if Invisalign is right for you. Next, the dentist will take impressions (models), photographs and X-rays of your teeth... read more

Children's orthodontics | Richard Ting | Orthodontist | Rancho Santa Margarita, CA

It used to be that kids got braces when they were in middle school or even high school. Now it seems that children are starting orthodontics in elementary school. Why the rush? There have been studies that show that the sooner children start some kind of orthodontics, the more successful their treatment will be. Although most orthodontic problems are best treated with traditional braces, some problems need to be treated as soon as they are noticed, no matter how young a child is. Because... read more
