I had an initial consultation with Dr. Murphy and his assistant, Dawn, and they were absolutely amazing! From the moment I walked in, they made me... feel so comfortable and at ease. Dr. Murphy took the time to explain everything thoroughly, answering all of my questions with patience and expertise. Dawn was so kind and personable, making the whole experience even better. I couldn’t be more impressed with their professionalism and care. I’m excited to move forward with them and highly recommend their practice to anyone considering orthodontic treatment!read more

I went to Dr. Murphy when I wanted to correct some movement from my original orthodontic treatment. He was able to solve some problems with my teeth... that I'd had for decades that no dentist or orthodontist had recommended before. The office atmosphere was always upbeat and positive, and I had such a great experience there that when my children's dentist told me that my (then) 7 year old was going to need early intervention orthodontics, I asked her to rewrite her referral for Dr. Murphy. My son just completed his Phase 1 of braces and his teeth look absolutely fantastic. My second child will be getting her phase 1 braces from Dr. Murphy within the year, and then they'll both be back for phase 2. Dr. Murphy has an energetic and cheerful personality which is just what my kids need to smile through getting braces at such a young age. I couldn't ask for a better experience for myself or my kids. You will not be disappointed with Dr. Murphy and his team.read more

Dr. Murphy and his entire team are the best! So grateful I came to them. After being self conscious about some teeth movement my dentist referred me... to Dr. Murphy to explore Invisalign. Every time I step into the office the entire team is warm, friendly and caring. They even took all my attachments off for my wedding! Dr. Murphy takes the time to discuss options and listens to patient concerns. Highly recommend!read more

This was my 3rd time wearing braces and by far the best experience. They are truly one of the best teams in healthcare that I have had the pleasure... being a patient of. I always scheduled my appointments for first thing in the morning because their energy is untouchable. Everyone is knowledgeable and the practice goes beyond to give outstanding service. What I appreciated most was the fact that Dr. Murphy gave me options in the beginning of my treatment and allowed me to make the decision based on my personal needs. They are truly THE BEST!read more

Southern Maine Orthodontics in Scarborough Maine is hands down the best organization I have worked with to get my teeth to where I want them to be.... Dr. Murphy is the most talented and generous orthodontist I have ever had the pleasure to work with. From the moment you walk through the door he is nothing but smiles and good vibes. He genuinely wants the best for your teeth and works with your life style in mind. I participate in consistent training with jujitsu, and mentioned concerns about my teeth. He made me a mouth guard with my teeth scans and got me in THE NEXT DAY. If you are struggling finding an orthodontist, go to Southern Maine orthodontics. You will simply not find better people or talent anywhere else.UPDATE A FEW MONTHS AFTER INITIAL POST:THEY HAVE DONE IT AGAIN!! I had chipped my tooth and and attempted to have my dentist (not in relation to Southern Maine Orthodontics) fix it years prior. It resulted with my smile being slanted (even though my teeth were pretty straight). I had always been upset about that encounter, but when I had mentioned it to Dr. Murphy he CREATED a solution. He reshaped my upper TEETH (not just the one that was effected by the chip) and I left his office with an amazing new smile. To be completely honest, my teeth have never looked this good in my entire life. The level of confidence this orthodontist and his team have brought into my life is priceless and I could not be more grateful. With all that being said, go to Southern Maine Orthodontics if you want a team that creates jaw dropping dental results and cares about all of their patients well being!read more
