Grand Rapids, MI

“Smiling — it seems like an easy thing to do, but not if you are unhappy with the way your teeth look and feel. I never smiled in pictures when I was a kid; I was embarrassed by how my teeth looked. My passion for orthodontics stems from helping other people find the confidence in themselves to smile. I feel great pride in my profession, knowing that as orthodontists, we can help others become healthier, happier, and smile more confidently.” — Dr. Lathe Miller
