A Truly Exceptional Experience with Dr. Kim at Smile Story Orthodontics!

From the moment I walked into Smile Story Orthodontics, I knew I was in good hands. Dr. Kim and the entire team are the perfect blend of professionalism, warmth, and genuine care. The office is modern, clean, and welcoming, and every visit felt more like catching up with friends than a dental appointment.

Dr. Kim is not only incredibly knowledgeable and skilled, but also incredibly kind and patient. He took the time to explain every step of the process, answered all my questions, and always made sure I felt comfortable and informed. You can tell he truly cares about his patients and takes great pride in creating beautiful, confident smiles.

The results of my treatment exceeded my expectations—I couldn’t be happier with my smile! If you’re looking for an orthodontist who combines expertise with a personal touch, I highly recommend Dr. Kim at Smile Story Orthodontics. You won’t find a better experience anywhere else!

김원장님한테 인비절라인으로 투명교정 치료 받고 있는데 완전 대만족이에요!! 제가 영어가 좀 부족해서... 미국에서 교정하는거 자체에 걱정이 좀 많았는데, 진짜 다행히도 한국어 능숙하신 원장님 만나서 얼마나 마음이 놓이는지 몰라요ㅜㅜ 곧 치료 마무리되가는데 기간 내내 꼼꼼히 잘 살펴주셔서 너무너무 감사해요ㅠㅠㅠ 치료 시작할때랑 비교해서 완전 좋아진게 한눈에 보여서... 거울에서 눈을 못때겠어요 ㅋㅋ 김원장님 최고에요!!!

Chi Taw Lin

I have been a general dentist for 41 years and all my patients in the area go to Dr. Kim for invisalign and braces. He is excellent with patients and capable of treating the most complex cases. If you are thinking about braces, UPenn trained Dr. Kim is the best.

Lee Wu

Dr. Kim was great and took care of my daughter Lizzy! She loves her new smile and can’t stop showing it off all the time now. Would definitely recommend to friends!

Christopher Lin

After relocating back to New Jersey, I was anxious looking for a new orthodontist for starting my kids braces. I was so lucky to come across Dr Doug.
He was so nice to me and my children, and truly a perfectionist. My daughters smile looks like a movie stars’ !!
I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone that would like Invisalign or braces.

Alisson López

I am missing teeth and a really complex case. Dr Kim took the time to go over my case and speak to the dentist regarding the overall goal of treatment. I ended up getting Invisalign and couldn’t be happier. Cost was very reasonable and quality of the work is superb. I love Dr KIM!!!

Jessica Ramos

Dr Kim took his time to explain treatment to me. He was thorough and really impressive in his knowledge of orthodontics.
I came here looking for treatment for myself but I am going to bring all three of my children here when they are old enough for treatment!!

Kyungsuk Kim

I am so happy with Smile Story Orthodontics! Dr. Douglas is very knowledgeable and takes his time to listen and explain things to you. Soonjung and Isa are both always friendly and accommodating. They take care of me like family so I never felt like just another patient. They make for an incredible team!

I got my invisalign treatment and I’m very satisfied with my results. Dr. Doug was so detailed and made sure I understood what was happening throughout the process. If you want a beautiful smile, I highly recommend Smile Story Orthodontics!

Lauren Kim

Dr. Kim and Smile Orthodontics were excellent! Dr. Kim was very attentive throughout my entire orthodontics journey, constantly checking in on how I was feeling about the progress and whether we should make any changes. He wanted to make sure I was 100% happy with the final product. He was also extremely attentive during in-office check-ups, making sure to explain each step of what he was about to do. He also went above and beyond by being flexible around scheduling due to numerous changes in my travel plans. The Smile Orthodontics team was also very helpful in explaining and helping with my orthodontics insurance coverage in a way that was very clear and understandable to me. I would recommend Dr. Kim and Smile Orthodontics to anyone looking for personalized care and attention. Five stars!!
