Trust Your Smile to Board-Certified Expertise
Only about a third of all orthodontists have demonstrated the mastery of orthodontic knowledge and best practices needed to be board-certified.
What does that mean for you? As a board-certified orthodontist with 19 years of experience, Dr. Thames has the expertise to design a treatment plan fully customized to your goals, needs, and lifestyle.
He’s also committed to providing high-quality care and staying up-to-date with the latest techniques to help give you and your family the best care possible.

Enjoy Quality Care Close to Home
Located on North Dean Road, we're just minutes from Auburn, Opelika, or one of our nearby communities like Valley, Smiths Station, Salem, or Cusseta. Getting here is quick and straightforward.
Plus, we offer early morning appointments several days a week, so you can stop in before work or school without missing a beat.
Start a Plan Made Just for You
At Thames Orthodontics, you’ll get an individualized treatment plan that’s as unique as your smile.
You’ll begin with a thorough consultation with Dr. Thames and our expert smile team. You’ll tell us about your goals and concerns, and we’ll use a digital scanner instead of goopy impressions to get a precise, accurate look at your teeth.
From there, Dr. Thames will create a plan tailored to your smile needs and lifestyle.
Best of the Best
“From the initial visit, follow-ups, and all the in-between appointments, Dr. Thames and his staff are the best of the best. Knowledgeable and friendly, and flexible with their scheduling. Thankful for their expertise in the field and their time with our son to perfect his smile.”
— Beth
Super Convenient
“We have two boys, both have gone to Dr. Thames for their braces. With the expense of how much braces are, it was super convenient that you could pay up front and get a small discount off of the overall fee or you could pay monthly over time.”
— Vino
Find Payment Options That Fit Your Life
At Thames Orthodontics, we’re here to make the financial side of treatment as easy as possible.
