What Our Patients Are Saying

Glenda Paredes
My experience was beyond my expectations. I was lucky to find this office for my daughter Layla’s ortho treatment. Also recommended my oldest daughter to have her Ortho treatment. She was very pleased as well with the final result. The office has very professional and welcoming staff who clearly know what they’re doing. Thanks to Gail, Sandy, Jasmine, Kathleen, Melissa and Nina. Scheduling an appointment is easy, and I really appreciate the reminders I receive a couple of days in advance—it makes the whole process smooth and stress-free. Dr. Yu is super nice with great chair side manner. The services received are always top notch with the latest technology. It’s worth the drive coming from Frederick. Highly recommend.

I can’t say enough great things about Dr. Yu and all his staff. My son started his orthodontist work in 4th grade and now got his braces off. The transformation has been incredible. Yu Smiles never rushed the process and we never went backwards. They explained the process for each step along the way. My daughter started with a bridge last year and now has braces. Truly, everything Dr. Yu has proposed to happen has. The results have not only improved my kids mouth structure but saved the good teeth from being overcrowded and damaged if not treated. My whole family is grateful for finding the Yu Smiles practice and want to thank all the staff who have been with us for many years.

Dr. Yu and his team are amazing! If you’re looking to start your ortho journey, look no further than Yu Smiles. I finished my Invisalign treatment with Dr. Yu and he helped me achieve the smile of my dreams! Everyone in the office is so nice and friendly. Sandy and Nina are the best techs. Super friendly, quick and efficient! The front desk ladies Gail, Jasmine, and Kat are always so helpful when scheduling and you never spend more than 20 minutes here for your appointments! I highly recommend!
Marieli Cruz
I’ve had an amazing experience at this ortho office from start to finish! Jasmine and Kathleen at the front desk are always so warm and welcoming. Dr. Yu is wonderful — Nina, Melissa and the rest of the staff, though I don’t know all their names, are equally personable and make you feel comfortable.

I started with Invisalign and later transitioned to braces, and the entire process was smooth and well-managed. I’m now officially done with braces and couldn’t be happier with my smile!

I’ve recommended this office to several friends and family members, and they’ve all stayed on as patients too — which says a lot. I highly recommend this team to anyone looking for exceptional orthodontic treatment!

We’ve had a wonderful experience with our orthodontist! Both of my kids are patients, and the care they receive is exceptional. The doctor is great at explaining every step of the process and always takes the time to answer our questions thoroughly. The staff is incredibly patient, professional, and truly phenomenal with kids. They also offer great payment plans, which has made everything more manageable for our family. Highly recommend!
