Back To School

Now that many of the schools in Surprise, AZ are back in session, Dr. Bailey would like to remind all of our patients about the importance of scheduling appointments in advance. With school, clubs, sports, and family duties to consider, we know that it can be challenging to find time to visit Bailey Orthodontics this fall. In order to accommodate all of our patients’ busy schedules, it is important that you plan ahead for your appointments so that we are able to provide you with a convenient appointment time.

As always, please remember to give us advanced notice if you’re unable to make your regularly scheduled appointment with Dr. Bailey and our team. Feel free to give us a call if you have any questions, or if you would like to schedule your fall appointment.

We’ll see you soon and hope summer is winding down nicely for you and your family!

Are You A Candidate for Orthodontic Treatment?


It is truly never too late to get treated by Bailey Orthodontics. If you’ve still have teeth, we can straighten them! Certainly,there are age-related changes that affect the way treatment proceeds. Restorative needs, periodontal concerns, and others necessitate a full diagnosis and discussion of your needs. Don’t wait! Enjoy the benefits of a healthy, pleasing smile for the rest of your life!

Are you a candidate for orthodontic treatment?
Orthodontics is not merely for improving the aesthetics of the smile; orthodontic treatment improves bad bites (malocclusions). Malocclusions occur as a result of tooth or jaw misalignment. Malocclusions affect the way you smile, chew, clean your teeth or feel about your smile.

A large percentage of our patients are adults, and they agree that it’s never too late to improve their greatest asset – their smile.
