"A few months ago, we came to SoCo Smiles after our Pediatric Dentist, Sean from Simply Smiles Dental (who is absolutely amazing), referred us to Johnson Orthodontics for my son’s front tooth—believe it or not, it was growing up into his nose. Unfortunately, after a week of unanswered calls from Johnson Orthodontics, we were feeling stuck and frustrated.That’s when we reached out to SoCo Smiles—and I’m so glad we did. From the very first visit, the team has been nothing but welcoming and reassuring. They walked us through every step and even helped navigate the tricky insurance approvals, which was a huge relief.This is going to be a long journey for my son, but I truly feel like he’s in the best hands possible. The care, compassion, and professionalism we’ve experienced at SoCo Smiles mean everything to us. We’re incredibly grateful."

As an adult with a genetic issue affecting my teeth, it was difficult to wrap my head around braces as an option for treatment. Dr. Kofford has been amazing in making me feel comfortable with the process and all of the nuances that come up with my illness. The staff is courteous and professional.

"Both of my kids have gone through braces with Dr. Kofford. Both had lots of issues especially my son! He did NOT wear his retainer and his teeth have shifted!

I literally cried, tears of joy, after leaving my consultation with braces. When I said I would do it today, they made it happen! I am so happy I finally am able to do this for my self.

"Really awesome orthodontist office. I used Comfort Dental for my niece and they charged extra for the retainers and little things here and there. With Dr. Kofford, the price they quote you is the price you pay. They work with you on payments and make everything easy and comfortable. I will be using them again for my kids that want braces."

"You will never find a better orthodontics office! Every last member of the staff is knowledgeable, friendly, sweet and well-trained. I’ve also never seen an office run so optimally and it’s employees work so well together, having fun, aiding one another, changing roles and all without any egos. Your visits really do feel like you’re just going there to catch up with old friends. In addition: the equipment is brand new and immaculate, the spaces are more like a spa than an orthodontics office and they do incredible and fast work. What else could you possibly hope for?"
"Dr. Kofford and the other associates at this clinic are amazing. They are friendly while very thorough and competent at their work. Dr. Kofford has made time to squeeze me in to take care of improving my comfort with my braces and to take care of normal wear and tear of devices. He is the kindest caregiver. He also takes care of my kids and their braces. He is so fun and always makes them feel at ease. I would 100% recommend this practice to anyone needing orthodontic work!"

"My dentist and several friends in the area recommended SoCo Smiles (previously known as Apple Orthodontics). We moved to area in the middle of my daughter's orthodontic treatment and needed to continue her orthodontic plan. Dr. Kofford was able to pick up where a previous orthodontist left off. My daughter just got her braces off last week and we couldn't be happier with the results. Both Dr. Kofford and Dr. Korchynskyy were determined to make her smile perfect - and they did. The office is clean, staff is friendly, and making/changing appointments is easy. I have two more kids to put through braces and will be choosing SoCo Smiles for their treatments as well."

"I love this orthodontist. Dr. Kofford was my orthodontist and was amazing. I had to have jaw surgery and he handled my braces and surgery with care and professionalism. I’ve brought all three of my kids in for braces and they love him as well. He lets you know everything needed and keeps you informed every step of the way. Dr. T is great as well although I only saw him a few times. Highly recommend this office for orthodontic care!!"
"Great place to get braces! Dr Koffard is very nice. He always knows my name and remembers what sports I play. Everyone's friendly and they didn't charge me for my damaged retainer."
"I started at Kofford Orthodontics in 2015! I was not confident with my smile at all. Dr. Kofford scheduled a handful of necessary oral surgeries to guide 5 of my adult teeth into place! And the final product is amazing! Super friendly staff and overall great experience!!"
"Impressive place! The front staff is very friendly and the place is clean and comfortable. They use high advanced technology for x-rays and mouth guards.

They make you feel like they've known you for such a long time right off the bat. Dr K was Super helpful with a problem I was having with my son and a mouth mold. I would definitely recommend friends and family here!"
"My father taught orthodontics at UCLA for 35 years so I am very select when I look for a dentist of any kind, and these are the best around. My dad even gave me a definite thumbs up on the work we had done at Apple Orthodontix. We LOVE Apple Orthodontix in Colorado Springs! Both dentists are really good but we mostly interacted with Dr. Kofford. He was wonderful! Since going here, my son is now determined to be an orthodontist when he grows up. Both doctors are very knowledgable and experienced. They went the extra mile and we loved them for it. We have now moved out of state but we will definitely go back to them if we return to the area. We would refer anyone we know to them without reservation. The staff is super nice and the facilities are beautiful. Very bright and always clean. My kids just loved them and they also loved that the office is next door to an ice cream store."
"I have been coming to Apple Orthodontix for 4 years. My daughter, son and I had braces. Very friendly staff. Dr. K and Dr. T go out of their way to make you feel welcomed and at ease. They have the cleanest facilities I have ever seen. I highly recommend their services."
"I received a referral to Apple Orthodontix from from my dentist when I expressed interest in getting adult braces. I had braces as a child, but due to time and lack or proper retainer wear, I felt I could improve my smile and dental health with another orthodontic treatment.Dr. Taloumis and Dr. Kofford were both great to work with. What really impressed me also was how friendly and knowledgeable their staff is. From the receptionist to orthodontic assistants, they have a really good team supporting them. Very friendly and welcoming atmosphere. Children there always seem at ease, which is paramount for a medical office. When my two young ones are old enough for braces I will definitely be bringing them here if necessary.All in all, I have completed my treatment and I could not be more thrilled with my new smile! It is easier to take care of my teeth and from a cosmetic standpoint it looks even better than I had hoped."
"From day one of starting my experience with Apple Orthodontix, As an adult, I was afraid for some time about about the experience of having braces. I have felt nothing but comfortable with all processes throughout the last 20months. Everyone from the receptionists to the assistants to the orthodontists, was friendly, and effective at everything that they do. My teeth look great these days and my smile is no longer something I am self conscious about. I have the amazing people at Apple Orthodontix to thank for that! Would recommend them to anyone and everyone who is seeking braces."
"My experience with Apple Orthodontix was amazing, we recieved incredible service and my daughters teeth looked fantastic after her braces were removed. The doctors were very nice and polite they made my investment in my daughter's teeth well spent. I would recommend anyone who has a child that requires braces Apple Orthodontix."
"This is the place to go to get great service for any orthodontic needs! Dr. K and Dr. T are both very professional and great with kids of any ages. They worked on all three of my boys over the past two years and we have gotten excellent results. The office staff is super friendly and always helpful with appointments. They even offer easy financing options and payment plans. I would highly recommend Apple Orthodontics to anyone."
"I had a dental emergency back in December when my front teeth were knocked in after taking an elbow to the face while playing soccer on a Sunday evening. I was referred to Dr. Kofford who was generous enough to open his shop at 9pm that night and was able to save me much time, pain, and the potential for further surgeries. The folks at Apple Orthodontix are by far the kindest, friendliest staff I have ever dealt with and I cannot thank them enough. I just got the braces off and my teeth look even better than they did before my accident. If I could give them more than 5 stars, I would!!!"
"I have been to several orthodontic offices over the years and I have to honestly say that this has been the best one! Dr. K recently finished working on my teeth with Incognito Braces (which are a new option for braces- placed behind the teeth so no one even knows you have them!) and I am so thrilled with my new smile! The office is conveniently located, professional, clean, bright, and comfortable. I was always impressed with the positive energy from the staff and doctors. Dr. K went above and beyond with my complicated teeth and successfully gave me a smile I am proud of. I would recommend Apple Orthodontix to anyone."
