Your Board-Certified Orthodontist

As a board-certified orthodontist, Dr. Caroline Albea is committed to staying up-to-date on the latest advancements and education so you and your family receive the best possible care.

And not every orthodontist is board-certified. Dr. Caroline had to pass rigorous testing to receive her certification from the American Board of Orthodontics. She'll also have to renew her board certification every few years.

With this commitment to ongoing education and professional excellence, you and the rest of the Mills River community can rest assured that your smile is in the best hands.

Easy & Flexible Financing

We understand that affordability is a major factor in deciding to begin treatment.

That's why we make paying for treatment easy by working with you and your insurance to find a payment plan that fits your family's budget.

We offer flexible in-house financing, stress-free automatic payments, and pay-in-full discounts, so you can start smiling without breaking the bank.

Make Yourself at
Home in Our Office

Why do patients feel so at home at our Mills River office? It's because our office used to be a home!

Dr. Caroline Albea and her husband, John, personally converted this former home into a comfortable, modern orthodontic office. The personal touch can be seen from the cozy fireplace in our clinic to the screen-free kids' playroom.

We know that orthodontic care can feel intimidating. That's why we handcrafted our office to help patients of all ages feel at ease.
