Such an amazing experience from start to finish and one of the friendliest staff I've ever had the pleasure of interacting with. My son and I both had treatment here and we couldn't have been more happy with the results.

Make You Feel Valued
Dr. Mahlmann & Borders and Staff are amazing. They treated my son when he wore braces and most recently they serviced my daughter. She just got her braces off today and she received more compliments than you could ever imagine.

“Everybody around me I knew was going to Dr. Mahlmann so it was kind of a no-brainer to come here.
They cared about me as a person and my family and it was very heartwarming every time I walked into the office. I felt like I belonged here.”
