About

Dr. Leo Chin practices Orthodontics in Tampa, FL. Comprehensive orthodontic treatment includes metal wires that are inserted into orthodontic brackets, which can be made from stainless steel or a more aesthetic ceramic material. The wires interact with the brackets to move teeth into desired positions. Being advanced in the field, Dr. Chin may also use Invisalign or other aligner trays that have been designed to align a patients? smile. As an orthodontist, Dr. Chin must recognize various characteristics of a malocclusion or dentofacial deformity, define the nature of the problem, including the etiology if possible, and design a treatment strategy based on the specific needs and desires of the patient.

    I've put both of my girls in braces at Dr. Chins office. They seriously OVERBOOK daily, making the wait time extremely long, plan an 1.5hours+ per visit before they even call your child for the first time. (They all have to be called twice, once to see the nurse so she can change wires, then they wait for the doctor to look at them) The office is filthy and rundown, they dont encourage good hygiene, and worst of all they basically STOLE a cash payment I made to them to pay off my daughters braces, they provided a receipt which they are now saying is invalid after saying at her last visit it was theirs, it doesn't matter that my mom was present when i made the payment, they are refusing to do anything, forcing us to REPAY $350 or they won't remove her braces. Never in my life have I disliked a doctor more. I do NOT recommend this doctors office, my experience from start to finish has been one massive headache after another. Save your time, teeth and wallet and find a good doctor.
