My daughter recently had braces from Dr. Hughes. I also took my son to have his teeth straightened about 4 years ago. Dr. Hughes was a referral from a friend who swore by his amazing work. I see now what he means. My daughter was so self conscious of her smile and now since having her braces off, surprisingly in only a little over a year for them on, she has a beautiful smile and an abundance of confidence. People always ask me-"why would you drive 1 1/2 hours for a dentist?" Well, I always tell them that I would never go anywhere else. Thank You Dr. Hughes and your staff
