"We’ve had one visit and they won my son and I over. They are nice and work with you on payments. I was always afraid to think of braces because $$$ BUT I’m excited for my son to start his braces journey. I can’t wait to start mine!"
"3 kids, 3 sets of braces, all phenomenal experiences!"
"Made us feel special and took time to explain everything before getting braces on the same day!"
"Everyone there was so wonderful! It was such a smooth process. They explained everything to me and my daughter. It was so fast and easy. They made us feel welcomed and comfortable through it all. My son also had braces done here and he just got out of them the entire process was so easy!"
"I was so nervous to talk about braces, but when I walked in and heard the Christian music playing, I felt a sense of relief. Everyone was so kind and gentle, and Kathy and Dr. Tivis were really informative. They didn't try to upsell me like the place where I got a prior consult, and they worked with me on the financial side. Before I left, Kathy said she would pray for me and my family for our recent loss, and that's what made me go with them. I feel really good about my decision."
"I had a wonderful experience at this orthodontic clinic! After my consultation, I was able to get my braces on the same day, which was incredibly convenient. The customer service was excellent, and the entire staff was friendly, welcoming, and very accommodating. They made me feel comfortable throughout the whole process. I highly recommend this clinic to anyone looking for quality orthodontic care!"
"Dr. Tivis and Courtney were amazing during our first consultation. Dr. Tivis thoroughly explained the Invisalign process and Courtney was very helpful with our payment plan, taking our scans and explaining even more about everything else that was going to happen. I am very excited to come back here and I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a braces consult and other issues that need to be looked at by an orthodontist."
"10/10!!! I'm 30 years old, have had braces twice, and even worked in the dental field, so I don't hand out compliments lightly. This place is truly amazing!Everyone was incredibly friendly, efficient, and thoughtful. They even had a front-row parking spot reserved with my son's name on a sign—such a cool personal touch that made us feel welcomed before we even walked in.The office has all the latest technology while still giving you that old-school hospitality. My family and I are genuinely excited to keep coming here. If you're looking for a ortho office, this is the one!"
"Our first time here I was intimidated at first, but these professional, family friendly people are fabulous!!! They made us feel so at home and I'm excited to start this journey with them for my son's braces experience!!"
"I had a great experience at this office. Everyone was so nice and sweet from my first appointment until getting my actual braces. I have no bad words for this orthodontist office and I would suggest anyone that wants/needs braces to come to Sperry, Tivis & Wentz Orthopedics."
"Everyone was so friendly and welcoming. My daughter got braces for the first time, and I can’t believe how quickly they put them on her. They were so efficient. Each person was kind and made sure my daughter was comfortable. I’m very glad we decided to use Dr. Sperry!"
"Wentz was great! They got us in and out with braces the same day as the consultation. 3 of my children have gone through Wentz and they have never disappointed us!"
"We absolutely love Dr. Sperry and his entire team! We have been coming here for several years and have had an amazing experience every step of the way. My son first went through Invisalign and later braces, and the results are incredible. Dr. Sperry has always been patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely cared about making sure my son had the best smile possible.Today was a special day because my son’s braces finally came off! To make it even more memorable, he happened to lose a tooth during his appointment, and Dr. Sperry gave him a $2 bill from the Tooth Fairy. It was such a thoughtful and fun gesture that completely made my son’s day.The office is always welcoming, appointments run smoothly, and the staff treats us like family. We are so thankful for the care we’ve received and highly recommend Dr. Sperry to anyone looking for an orthodontist. Thank you for giving my son a beautiful smile and making the journey such a positive experience!"
"The entire staff from the front to the back were friendly and professional but still made you feel like you were part of the Sperry/Wentz family. This was a very exciting day because I graduated into just nightly retainers so the attachments were taken of my teeth and they feel and look great! I am not the traditional Invisalign/ braces patient because I am in my 50’s and should have had braces years ago but due to life I didn’t and the entire staff made me feel comfortable and explained the app and scanning of teeth in a easy to understand way due to the fact I wasn’t 16 years old and born with a smartphone in my hand. LOL , I would highly recommend this fantastic facility to anyone who ever needed or wanted orthodontic care.They are professional, classy and caring!"
"My husband and I were looking for a place to get our son braces. We got consultations from a few different places and we chose Wentz for a single reason ~ the customer care. From the first phone call with Neisha (sorry if its misspelled) we felt like we were cared for. After that first call, I felt like I had made a new friend. Then we got a call the day before our appointment from Courtney who was just the sweetest and she ended up seeing our son for the consultation. Courtney and Dr. Tivis both treated me and my son with the utmost respect and care. The thing I love the most is they talked to my 13 year old like he was a real person, not just a child and included him in the conversation. My son actually engaged in that conversation and that says a lot to me. Everyone else we had any interaction with was so kind and sweet. They even offered my kiddo ice cream before we left. We are excited to start our care with the team at Wentz. Thank you Neisha, Courtney and Dr. Tivis for your care."
"Absolutely loved my experience! Went in for a free consultation and was greeted with friendly staff and walked out with a scheduled appointment for braces! I am so excited for this experience!"
"This is the second round of braces in my family with Wentz. My youngest son just got his off and they went above and beyond. To top it off everyone from the ladies at the front desk to the assistants in the back and so kind. Would 10 out of 10 recommend."
"So let me start by saying I do not do anything dental related without massive anxiety. Ok maybe cleanings and that’s it. So here I am a grown, mature adult going in to get Invisalign put on. All I knew is that my grandkids (grandson had his braces done there) kept talking about “grandma you get ice cream when you’re done”. Yeah while there I could care less about ice cream, I just wanted to be done and get the heck gone lol.Let me tell you I couldn’t have asked for more compassionate, caring crew that worked on this grown woman’s mouth today. They worked with me to assist thru my anxiety and I left with the start of a whole new future that will fix the problems that I’ve been having.Next time I will get the ice cream 😉"
"Love the staff at Plainview. They made my son having braces and easy process."
"We love this place. I had braces here and now our kids are getting theirs. Kathy is our treatment coordinator and she is AMAZING and so helpful. Macy put on our braces and she was so kind and patient!"
"When I tell you EVERY staff we have encountered here has been absolutely incredible is an understatement. Professional, polite & extremely welcoming. They work so well with our schedule & any changes. Dr. Wentz has made our son’s experience with braces easy & manageable. Affordable & friendly care. Would highly recommend!!"
"I absolutely love this ortho office. We took our oldest and they made his braces journey, a dream and understandable, and they’ve always been so friendly and welcoming. Every time we come in!Our youngest son has a severe underbite and we were recommended to a different orthodontist, but we chose to go here instead and we are so happy we did. They have been absolutely amazing in both of their journeys with ortho! They’ve made the dentist a fun and inviting environment, where my kids love going to their appointments."
"Considering how hard it is to find good establishments here in the Permian Basin, this dentist office really impressed me and my husband. Staff is super welcoming, I know it’s funny to say but everyone was so kind and well mannered and the dentist himself was amazing! Very detailed in the process my son was going to have to follow and even although my daughter had braces a year ago from a different place, she was a bit dissatisfied with her two front teeth (one was sitting what looked like a centimeter longer than the other) he did a quick 1 minute fix and didn’t offer treatment charges or even services as he said her teeth looked great she didn’t need any further work. The honesty and customer services was amazing! I highly highly recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"
"My son got his braces off after a year or so of having and we are extremely pleased! Thank you Dr. Wentz and Dr. Sperry - AND STAFF!"
"Everytime we go here we have the best experience. Everyone is so nice, and informative. Today we went to put my daughters braces on, and the person who who put them on her - i think her name was Deija -- was so sweet with her, calmed her, made her feel relaxed and talked with her through the entire process explaining each step as she went that my kiddo said she didnt even feel a thing. Explained in detail afterward the importsnce of takimg care of them, just a great overall experience."
"Kathy and Dr. Tivis were wonderful to work with! Two sets of braces at this establishment and we couldn't be happier."
"Staff is super friendly and professional. From the consultation to getting my kids in a week later for their braces was a breeze. They were all smiles when we left."
"3 of my kids had there braces here very happy with there results."
"I had such a great experience getting my braces here . The whole team was so sweet. Everyone made me feel comfortable during my appointment. They explained everything clearly and made the process very easy. I’m so glad I chose this orthodontist I would highly recommend them !"

"Sperry, Tivis and Wentz have been part of our family orthodontic care for many years. All 3 of my daughters had braces and after they finished, it was moms turn. My case was complicated and I needed to see the doctors for several years. They have taken such good care all of us. The office has always been helpful, and they have gone the extra mile many times to help us get in for appointments or anything we might need. I am thrilled with my new smile. Thank you Wentz Orthodontics for sticking with us all of these years! We will always point friends your direction."
"I really loved how our visit at Wentz Orthodontics went. I have two children who saw Dr. Tivis for an evaluation. We were able to schedule an evaluation and have their braces and aligners set up that same day. They were able to work with us to ensure that the monthly payments would fit within our budget. The technology at Wentz Denistry is top of the line and the whole process was explained in detail. The customer service is top tier. Dr. Tivis was incredibly kind and spent a lot of time explaining everything to us. I would definitely recommend Wentz Orthodontics to my friends and family for any of their orthodontic needs."
"Drove from Midland for a second opinion and glad we did. Kathy and Dr. Tivis are awesome. Decided to get our daughter her braces right then and there. All of our questions were answered and they were very informative."
"Great experience!! Kathy and Dr.Tivis explained everything that my son needed and affordable payment plans with getting your braces on the same day!"
"When I was a teenager I went here for my braces now that my kids needed them I took them to the same place where I got mine. It's a good environment my kids like going over there"
"They were so nice and patient. They explained things very well and helped us figure out how to cover braces."
"Kathy and Dr. Tivis were polite and efficient. My girls were excited to have braces put on same day! And Kathy was very helpful financially!"
"Kathy & Dr. Tivis have been so amazing! They made sure we were taken care of and understood the process. Definitely recommend to anyone who wants to get braces."
"***I want to add that Sperry, Tivis, & Wentz have always gone above and beyond for our family. It is truly amazing to me that orthodontics has come so far since I was a wee teen. One thing I have loved is that Dr. Tivis works closely with my youngest daughter's pediatric dentist, Dr. Jackson.(who-by the way- used to work at Wentz when I was in braces back in the day) I appreciate that there is collaborative communication and commitment to my youngest's best interests. There are so many reasons to look forward to our appointments there, we especially love getting to see all of the kind faces, but also love to get an ice cream or cookie on our way out. ***Wentz Orthodontics has been our orthodontics go to for decades! I had braces as a young girl, my oldest daughter went there and now my youngest is beginning her journey there as well. The Wentz Team treats us all like family! We are so grateful for their services and their dedication to helping us smile beautifully and confidently. They are very good at what they do, I appreciate them all so much! There are also fun events planned throughout the year that they invite us to. My daughters and I have always felt special with Dr. Wentz and his team. I would recommend this office to anyone for a free consultation of services."
"Just got my top braces on she did a great job explaining everything had me in and out! Everyone was welcoming and nice when you first walk in!"
"Staff is WONDERFUL. I had 2 kids in braces until today. Our first just got done with his treatment plan. It took a little longer than originally planned, but the wait was worth it. Our second kiddo will be in braces for a while longer, but I have faith that he will have outstanding results as well. We went the traditional route, but the technology involved is amazing. You can scan your teeth at home weekly to update the office of your progress and address any concerns."
"Such an awesome experience for my son who is now braces free!! We are extremely grateful for the past couple of years this journey for him could not have gone any better. The staff and Dr. Sperry have just been so good to us. Thank you all. We recommend WENTZ to all family and friends."
"Dr. Sperry was amazing through my braces journey. He was patient and understanding and heard my concerns. The staff and dental assistants are very friendly as well. I will 100% go back for any of my orthodontic needs and recommend to any one."
"Myself and 4 other loved ones I recommended Wentz to have gotten braces with Wentz. We all have been so happy with their work. I'm back today to set up another loved one who has a some what complicated work schedule. I spoke with NEISHA and she was absolutely GREAT!! I've always loved the Drs & Assistants, but to even have such a great experience with scheduling?! She was so kind, patient and understanding to what we are needing! Went to the extent of calling offices to see if they could move things around/ squeeze us in any possible way for a date that was showing to be fully booked already. She was able to get us the date we really wanted! :DThis is why I will always recommend WENTZ, the whole team is the absolute BEST in every way! (:"
"my daughter adriana had an appointment we were new patients everyone is super friendly, had the best experience ever and the process was easy and my daughter left satisfied and happy with her new braces on thank y’all for everything."
"I love the staff of Wentz..my oldest got braces back in 2013, and now my 8 and 11 year old had spacers put in a month ago, and then braces is our next step. I love the friendliness and inviting atmosphere they give. We've always been treated great and the girls in the front are so welcoming . I DEFINITELY RECOMMEND WENTZ, YOU WON'T BE DISAPPOINTEDUpdate.: This is my 4th in braces and still friendly and exceptional service."
"Loved kathy she helped me understand everything I needed to know about braces going into it"
"This is our third time getting braces at Wentz and it is always a great experience. The staff is so nice and accommodating. They make the process very simple!"
"Always a welcoming visit, for barley repairs, monthly checkups and overall care! And to top it off the cookies, coffee and ice cream are a hit that make the other siblings want to get braces lolThe staff wore these cute baseball TTU jerseys and it was just so welcoming as always!"
"GREAT, GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE. I TELL EVERYONE THAT IS LOOKING TO GET BRACES "GO TO WENTZ"!!"
"I love this place! I've had such a great experience with every person working here and my teeth are beautiful. It's very kid friendly too. My son is excited to go with and get a treat. I'll be getting my teenager braces here next."
"When I first pulled up the had a sot dedicated to me. I walked in they greeted me and the entire staff was really nice. I wanted braces but then decided Invisalign after the great information they gave me. The whole consultation process went very smoothly they also gave me recommendations on other things as well. I left with a goody bag and a Tshirt :) BEST ORTHODONTICS EVER"
"Although I have only had my braces on for a month, this office is great! There are multiple locations and the staff remembers you! All of the staff is kind and help you with the journey to a great smile. The orthodontists care a lot about you and are ready to help, as well as the dental assistants. The first consultation was thorough and I was told about every possible problem that could come up. I am so happy I chose Wentz!"
