Services
We recognize that all of our patients are unique and deserve to receive orthodontic care that reflects their individual needs. Our experienced and talented orthodontic team is committed to working with you and your family to create a comfortable, stress-free, and rewarding orthodontic experience every time you visit our practice.
At Markham Orthodontics, we consider providing our patients with the straight, gorgeous smiles of their dreams our number one priority. We offer several types of orthodontic treatment to achieve this goal. Our most popular treatment by far is Invisalign. This program provides patients with a system of clear acrylic aligners worn in succession to gently move their teeth into alignment.
I am in the business of growing people: my patients, my team, and myself. I just happen to straighten crooked teeth and make beautiful smiles along the way! Working with my patients and my team every day inspires me to improve myself, to be happier and healthier with each new day, and to age gracefully.
I have been in the dental field since 1997. Orthodontics is not just about creating attractive teeth. It is also about the way your teeth will bite, chew, and function, for the rest of your life. I will help you achieve a balanced bite for comfortable function, as well as a beautiful smile, with the kind of personal attention you and your children deserve.

Dr. David Markham is awesome! I lost my retainer years ago and my teeth had shifted significantly, so I started the Invisalign process with him a couple of years ago (as an adult). Dr. Markham was patient and, even though it took a bit longer than we originally anticipated, he wanted to make sure we got it right. I just finished my treatment and my teeth look fantastic!
Love this office and the staff, but especially Dr. Markham who is energetic, enthusiastic and an excellent orthodontist. Highly recommend if you need orthodontia treatment. And his wife, Dr. Luminita Markham is a great dentist. She treats our whole family and she's an excellent dentist as well.

I really don't recommend this place. First of all, I just wanted my bottom teeth straightened. They told me that braces and Invisalign would be the same price, but if I signed up that day they would give me a small discount. So, I felt pressured to sign up for Invisalign. I wish that I would have gotten a 2nd opinion. My daughter ended up getting braces somewhere else after I signed up and they offered a much cheaper price for braces, plus her teeth straightened out within a couple months with braces!
I have had to go months with the same disgusting aligners because they won't fit me in for an appointment and they won't send me my trays. Plus my teeth are not straightened. It's really annoying and a waste of time and money

I went to get a consultation but was told need some fixing before being able to work on my teeth. Now some time later I tried to go back, I made a schedule online and was sent an email that I will get a call back. No calls. I called a month later for a follow up on the scheduling and the girl I spoke to said she couldn't hear me and advised me to text.
So I texted. She only texted twice back and was not given a schedule. 4 stars because I really wanted to come here because I have friends that came here and they enjoy the service. My initial first consultation I was very convinced too. Everyone was nice. With the new way of booking, hard to get in.

Our kiddos dentist recommended Markham Orthodontics for her braces. The whole process from initial review to finally get the braces done went very smooth and hassle free. The whole staff was very helpful, knowledgeable and answered all our questions and concerns. They did a great job of explaining, talking and demonstrating the whole process to my kid again and again. My kid got Invisalign and she is very comfortable taking them in/out, cleaning etc. I will highly recommend Markham Orthodontics!

Dr. Markham is the best orthodontist EVER! - hands down. I'd do it all over (no questions asked), but I don't have to because my smile is AWEsome! :) Everything Doctor and his team does is top-notch. They're professional, friendly, super down to earth, clean, on-time, on-point, organized, and affordable. My entire experience was 110% positive. I HIGHLY recommend!

I was a former client of Dr. Markham's and felt compelled to leave a review after all these years because I am so happy with my teeth! I decided to get braces in my late 20's and Dr. Markham and his staff made the experience super comfortable for me. I got my braces off in late 2017 and to this day people compliment my smile and teeth. I regularly wear my retainer at night to keep Dr. Markham's and his staff's magic going for my smile. Thank you for making my smile better and for giving me so much more confidence in my life! 10/10 recommend

Completely disappointed in the office here. Due to COVID my daughter has to be home for school. She is 5. The first time I had to cancel because they wouldn't let me bring her with me. The second time I had to cancel because my babysitter fell through that same day. I'm tired that parents are having to be penalized when they can't afford babysitters.
I was completely shocked because when I had to cancel the the last appointment no one told me the issue. When I called today I was informed that I have to call in everyday to check for an appointment that same day. When I Know that is usually next to impossible with doctors offices today. Appointments could take months to get. Meaning once again, unless you can afford or be able to not go to work on a week day (without requesting your work day off in advance), you cannot have an appointment.
I asked to speak to an office manager to explain and this woman said she is the office standin manager and would not let me leave a message. Completely shocked and disappointed by this office's policies that would disproportionally penalize low income parents. And when I asked if the doctors office recommends other orthodontists in the area she said, "Google it." Take caution. :(

Dr. David Markham was amazing with my daughters. Their teeth turned out beautiful. We were very satisfied with the amazing team and how they treated us. They worked with us financially and had several appointment options for our crazy busy schedule. I woul highly recommend this office for kids and adults. AWESOME

Our son was nervous & excited and Dr. Markham and all of his amazing staff made us feel like long time family friends! Dr. Markham was attentive, thorough, a great listener, and very funny! Plus, the facility is very clean. Dr. Markham came highly recommended by many of our friends & family who now have amazing smiles! We are super excited about this journey!

I love Dr. Markham, he is definitely one of the best Orthodontist out there, and thats saying a lot as I have a complex case. I am able to talk to him freely, we are in constant communication with the process of my braces. I am relieved at the fact that he is willing to hear my suggestions and concerns, as well at always making sure i'm comfortable and not hurting. I love all his Dental Assistants, they are so nice and I feel like I'm their friend they didn't ask for but got anyway and they love me because of it.lol.

Dr. Markham and his team are pretty amazing! The office is always clean and all of my appointments were always in and out without a long wait. I received treatment from Dr. Markham for 2.5 years and always felt welcomed at his office. He is very professional and friendly and you can feel he genuinely cares for his patients. I couldn't have chosen a better team to take care of me during my process of getting braces. They are the best! I will miss seeing them every couple months.

While 100's of miles away from home my son had an orthodontic emergency. My stress level immediately went up. I am VERY picky and love our hometown orthodontist. I called Markham Orthodontics and they saved the day! The office is in an easy to find location, the staff is friendly and the care was top notch! The way they took care of us makes me believe anyone able to come here for orthodontics is very lucky!

Dr. Markham and his team are amazing! I had my braces removed late September 2018, right before my wedding. The team was able to work with my busy schedule and have my braces off for my special day. I want to give a special thanks to Ciera, Cossandra, and Jackie for always making me feel comfortable during the appointments that I thought were a little painful (I'm a baby when it comes to pain). I love my new smile! Thank you Markham Orthodontics! :) Sorry I took so long to post this review. I checked my notes on my phone and realized I never got to it.

I cannot say enough just how AMAZING Dr. Markham and all of his staff are! From the second you enter the office, you are greeted warmly and feel welcome. Every step of the process was thoroughly explained. I never expected having braces to be a wonderful experience, but thanks to Dr. Markham and staff, it truly was. I am just about done with my treatment, and my daughter just got started with hers. I look forward to seeing all of the lovely people at Markham Orthodontics.

I received clear retainers from Dr. Markham after needing replacements from previous treatment from another orthodontist. The process of treatment was good and retainers came out fine. The issue comes with billing. My insurance coverage was pulled and the assistant mentioned how I had a great plan for orthodontia. I asked if these would be covered, and she said insurance companies can find ways to not cover so it is possible.
I was then charged $887 and they submitted my claim. My claim was denied by insurance because they billed it as "replace lost or broken retainers." Whomever entered this claim knew that this would be denied, yet did not tell me so. I was then responsible for $443 more than I should have. I would have never gone with Dr. Markham had I known my coverage would be denied. Furthermore, they should not have billed my service as a replacement for lost or broken when I never received treatment from them prior.
I spoke with them on the phone and explained my frustration, and the response was "we will use this as a teaching moment." Whomever I spoke with also admitted that they knew this type of coding would be denied by insurance. Their communication is very poor. I suggest taking a LONG look at your coverage before thinking about coming here and/or giving them your credit card.

Dr. Markham is awesome! His staff is amazing! I'm already feeling sad for the day I won't have to see them again. I look forward to every appointment and especially look forward to seeing my results. I went with the Insignia braces thanks to Dr. Markhams recommendation. I wanted invisalign because of the commercials and he said I was a candidate however, he listened to what I wanted and I'm extatic with what i got. I'm extremely satisfied with the level attention they put into my treatment. This is just the first of many reviews to come. I mean who doesn't like a Dr. That has a RUSH poster in his office.

My experience with Markham Orthodontics has been nothing less than exceptional. Ever single person I worked with on staff was professional, efficient and just a pleasure to work with. They put a lot of effort and care into their customer service. I had received multiple quotes for the Invisalign work I needed done and the pricing I recieved from Markham came in 10-20% less than the other doctors I met with. I highly recommend Dr. Markham and his wonderful team.

I was referred to this office by a friend and a coworker. After having a bad experience at a different orthodontist we gave Dr. Markham's office a try. It is not an overstatement when I stress the EXCELLENT service we received. The ladies at the front desk make you feel like they are happy to serve you. They make the kids feel comfortable and explain things in a way both me, my husband, and my daughter could understand.
They do a great job with scheduling so there is not a wait and we were seen on time. It's apparent that they truly care about providing a great experience and not just getting the most patients seen in a day.

Okay. ummmmmmmmmm. The staff here are INCREDIBLY caring, and nice! I am so extremely happy with this office, and how they operate! I am so glad that I chose them to make my smile pretty again! It is also helpful that Dr. Markham offers a payment plan so it is possible to get braces. Another place I went to for a quote asked for all the money upfront, and unfortunately I just can't do that.
When I went in to get my braces put on the dental assistant walked me through everything she was doing. I loved that. She even apologized for getting some of the water splashes on my cheeks. which was totally unnecessary only because of course water is going to splash everywhere. so super sweet and nice of her. Thank you to Dr. Markham and staff for being so accomodating, and personable. It does not go unnoticed by your patients! I can not wait to get further into my treatment to see the end results!

I am so glad my Dentist referred me to this office! I had already found it on Yelp, so I guess it was meant to be. I was really nervous getting braces in my 30's, but Dr. Markham and his staff made are extremely knowledgeable and me feel really comfortable. My consultation was very detailed - Melissa is awesome! I recently got my braces on and I'm glad I got them done here. Everyone there is so friendly and welcoming, you don't feel like you're in a typical office. Great experience overall :
