Freehold Orthodontic FAQs

Is it worth driving from Freehold to see a board-certified orthodontist?

For most families, yes. Dr. Tara is ABO board-certified and personally handles every case, and Route 79 brings you from Freehold into Marlboro in about 15 to 20 minutes, depending on traffic. Remote check-ins also cut down on how often you need to make the trip.

Do you offer early or later appointments?

Yes. We open at 8:00am on Wednesdays and Thursdays, so parents can often fit a visit in before work. On Mondays we stay open until 6:30pm, which helps families who would rather come after practice or the end of the workday.

How many office visits will treatment take?

Probably not as many as you’d think. With DentalMonitoring, your family takes quick scans at home on a phone, and Dr. Tara checks them from the office. In-office visits are still needed for key steps, but many routine check-ins happen without the drive.

What's the difference between an orthodontist and our family dentist?

Your family dentist handles cleanings, fillings, and overall oral health. Orthodontists go on to several more years of training devoted only to how teeth move and how jaws grow. Board certification goes a step further, and Dr. Tara has earned it through the American Board of Orthodontics.

Is parking easy at your office?

Very. Parking is free and right on site at 479 County Road 520 in Marlboro, so there’s no meter to feed or garage to find. Our suite is A204, and our team is happy to give directions if it’s your first visit.

How much do braces cost for families coming from Freehold?

The cost depends on the type of treatment, the complexity of the case, and how long it takes, so we quote each family individually. Your consultation is free, payment plans are interest-free, we accept most insurance plans, and our online payment calculator gives you a quick monthly estimate.
