Why Shannon Orthodontics

The Difference You Feel From Day One

There are plenty of orthodontists in Central Florida. Here is why patients drive past others to come to us — and why they send their neighbors, too.

Exceptional Patient Experience

Patients always come first. From the team we build to the way we plan your treatment, every decision is made to help you feel genuinely cared for, valued, and welcome at every visit.

A Passion for Your Best Smile

Orthodontics is our passion, not just our profession. We care deeply about every patient and give each smile the time, attention, and thoughtful planning needed to achieve the best possible result.

We Respect Your Time

Most new patients can be seen within one to three days of calling. We also offer the opportunity to begin treatment the same day, helping you move forward without unnecessary delays.

Treatment That Stays on Track

Every treatment plan is carefully monitored to stay on track. We watch the details, communicate clearly, and make timely adjustments to help patients finish treatment as efficiently as possible.

Deep Community Roots

We proudly support the schools, events, and youth sports that strengthen our community. Giving back to the families who call this area home is something we truly value.

Physical Therapy Perspective

Dr. Shannon's background in physical therapy brings a unique perspective to orthodontics. He approaches jaw health and bite function in ways that set his care apart.
