If you're hesitating getting braces, just do it!"

"Love SoCo orthodontics, the staff and Dr.’s are super friendly and kind. My kids love going there especially for all the extra gifts and perks they get like their events and summer reading program. They really go above and beyond!!"
"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."

Half way through Dr. Korchynskyy took over and she took one look at my teeth and said, "Don't worry, I will take care of you." I am a paraplegic and wasn't treated any different. There was always a warm welcome when I came in, nothing but polite beautiful women. Don't think I can come up with one complaint if I tried."
"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."

"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.

"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 place for my kids! I have 5 that are going thru braces at some point and they have worked with me on payments when I was a single mom and my oldest is out of her braces today and she looks amazing! They are always great with the kids and super friendly! I give them 15 out of 10 stars! Seriously love that they make this so easy! My daughter loves the fact that they asked her (not me) if she was happy with her smile and really included her in the process. Seriously these guys are the BEST!!"

"Dr. Kofford and his staff have made my grandchildren very comfortable in all visits. The parents appreciate the good results from the various treatments, plus the easy financing (3 kiddos at once!). As Grandma, I furnish transportation to/from each visit and am so glad for the convenience of a Canon City office. Having the word "Smiles" in the name is more than appropriate as (1) they are creating the opportunity for beautiful smiles for their patients and (2) this group of professionals always greeted us with their own friendly smiles! SoCO Smiles Orthodontics is a remarkable group of professionals."
"I can’t say enough wonderful things about Dr. Kofford & his staff!!! Friendly, knowledgeable and conveniently located near Cañon City schools with the option to go to Pueblo too if needed. They are awesome with patients of all ages and accommodating in every way. They even offer a discount if more than one person in the family is in braces at the same time!!!! We had an awesome experience & highly recommend Soco Smiles!!!"
"What a great place! I wore braces for a long time as a kid, but I didn't wear my retainer enough and my wisdom teeth also pushed lower teeth back together. I'm wearing adult front work braces. They're less expensive and just rearrange the front. I wish I would've known about this years ago!"
"There aren’t enough good things to say about this office. Every single time I go in, they are incredibly professional, kind, and gentle The assistants are top notch, and Dr. Kofford is amazing. He is a master at what he does. I got my braces off ahead of schedule and the results are amazing. I could not be happier."
"Dr. Kofford and his staff are outstanding!! From the day I went in for a consult, to thw day I got my braces off, I was always impressed. They always educated me in every step of treatment, and always answered my questions. His assistants are all very knowledgeable and kind, aswell as his front desk. They offer reasonable appointments and always got me in quickly after a few bad decisions and a few broken brackets (because lets be honest, brackets dont JUST keep breaking).

They have a little video game section for siblings who aren't being seen by the Dr. Which is very entertaining ( even for myself 😉 ) I would highly recommend this amazing group of people."
"My son and I thoroughly enjoyed our experience at Smiling Springs Orthodontics. Being that this was our first exam, of course we didn’t know what to expect- but as soon as we arrived, we noticed a very clean and inviting office with a happy and extremely helpful receptionist. Being that I already filled out my paperwork online, Dr. Horne politely came out to introduce himself and immediately proceeded with my son’s exam. My other three children quietly waited in their kid friendly touch screen computer area, in which they also have children magazines to read as well. The exam roughly lasted an hour and he was very knowledgeable about my son’s condition and the treatment he needed. He was very dedicated in making sure we get a resolution to his issue, showing he cares. We can’t wait for our next visit."

I enjoyed conversing with him and his staff. Dr. Horne went out of his way to accommodate my personal needs and crazy schedule countless times. Once he came in early just so I could have my adjustment. He really cared about me, my life, and my health. If there was ever a problem, he helped me through it and never failed to get it solved.

I highly recommend him to anyone considering orthodontic treatment. Thank you Dr. Horne!"

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."
"My son and I both had braces put on at the same time about a year ago, and we always look forward to our appointments because Dr. Kofford and his staff are always so wonderful and friendly!! I am very happy with the whole process so far, and am excited to have a beautiful smile thanks to Dr. Kofford!!"

It has been a great experience with Smiling Springs."
"You must meet Dr. Horne to believe it, but he is the best kept secret in Colorado Springs Orthodontia! He is phenomenal! My daughter has a phobia of all doctors, dentists, and orthodontists because of painful, past experiences but she LOVES Dr. Horne. He is so gentle, friendly, and explains everything. He took care of my daughter during the last year of her braces and we were thrilled with the level of personal care we received. Try him, you will not be disappointed."

"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."
"I absolutely love going to Skelton Orthodontics! The staff members are extremely nice and they help give information about your teeth, braces, retainers, etc. It's like a family business and everyone is super friendly. They will align your teeth and give you a better, bigger, brighter smile. They will take good care of your teeth. They are very encouraging and like to motivate their patients to do better with their teeth. For example: they have a rewards system where you can earn points for taking care of your teeth on your own or doing activities and challenges that they give you. This makes caring for your teeth much more fun and motivating. I guarantee that you won't regret going to Skelton Orthodontics."
"Skelton Orthodontics is by far the best place for children with braces, retainers, etc. They're kid friendly and are good about motivating kids to keep up with cleaning their teeth."

"I've had the distinct pleasure of getting to know Dr. Tom Skelton and his staff really well. These people do orthodontics the way it should be done - no shortcuts, no gimmicks, no hassles. If you want the job done right, this is who you see for braces in Colorado Springs."
