Lawrence J Levens, DDS, MSD, MScLO – Levens Orthodontics

I am an adult who has had incognito braces (placed behind my teeth) for about a year. I was thrilled to discover the hidden brace alternative offered by Dr. Levens, the only orthodontist in the St Louis area that provides this fabulous option. Dr. Levens and his staff are terrific– very professional, friendly and responsive to my individual needs and questions. I enthusiastically give them five starts!

The experience I had with Dr. Levens for my orthodontia work has been the best ever. As an adult needing orthodontic work, I was nervous. The staff, along with Dr. Levens, have been so accommodating, upbeat, cheerful, not to mention extremely knowledgeable regarding my care. I will recommend Dr. Levens and staff to everyone I know. Thank you all!!!

I am so very pleased that I chose Levens Orthodontics. I could not have asked for a better experience. Dr Levens has given me a beautiful smile!
Every visit was pleasant and the entire staff could not have been more friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend.

I went to see Dr. Levens as an adult. I was super scared to go on the orthodontic journey as an adult & take on the expense. But I am super glad I did! My teeth look amazing! And Dr. Levens & his staff were awesome always friendly & super outgoing! I highly recommend him to EVERYONE who is looking to wear braces. He is upper passionate & GREAT at how what he does. Keep up the great work Dr. Levens & his staff! Thank you for everything you have done for me

I have always loved to smile, but as I got older I became self-​conscious because my teeth were spreading farther apart. I had thought about braces for years but I am a performer and was engaged, and I could not get past the idea of having braces on my teeth in all my pictures and during all of my performances. And so I put it off. The idea of having braces behind my teeth intrigued me, but I thought they were only for the rich and famous. So when I found Dr. Levens in St. Louis, I was thrilled.
Dr. Levens is personable, professional, and particular about your smile. His staff is professional, friendly, efficient, and are as excited to see your progress as you are. The office is very, very clean (I work in a doctor’s office and I am very particular) and very comfortable. In the almost 2 years I’ve been a patient I have never waited more than 3 – 5 minutes for an appt. I drive 2 hours for each appt and I would not be driving if if he was not the best.
My lingual braces were awesome. The changes were almost immediate. No one could tell I had them which was perfect. The edges of the braces were very smooth and my tongue forgot they were there. I was able to speak and sing clearly within the first 2 days after having them placed.
Fast forward to 19 months later — I have been in several musicals and have gotten married in my braces and no one was the wiser. Thanks so much Dr. Levens and staff!

I can understand why there aren’t any reviews for an orthondontist since most folks with braces are in middle school, and I don’t know many middle-​schoolers who are Unilocalers…
HOWEVER, if you are one of the unfortunate adults like me who are planning to sport around a metal mouth in your adulthood, then this may be something for you to read.
I was referred to Dr. Levens’ practice by my dentist, and I was glad that fate kicked in to pair me with such a professional office.
Dr. Levens and his wonderful staff have been outstanding from the moment I stepped in with a mouthful of crowding. Needless to say, 30+ years of orthodontic fear had been building up in my brain, and I was terrified of what was in store for me. Fortunately, everyone here has been great, and I have found that getting braces isn’t really as bad as I thought.
Of course, one can’t really deny the product of all of the work that has been done so far. My teeth are finally straight, and I will soon be ready to shed the hardware in my mouth!
The price is right, and their interest-​free payment plan was outstanding. Please check his place out if you are searching for a great orthodontist for you (or your kid).
If anything, it’s a great experience to be jealous of a 12-​year old who is trading their braces in for a retainer. It really puts perspective on where you stand in life.
