Reviews of Embrace Our World Orthodontics in St. Louis, MO

The staff at EOWO are amazing! Any time we needed to re-schedule, or we missed an appointment, they were always understanding. The office is comfortable and accommodating and again...the staff is THE reason this place runs and does so well. Thanks for the great treatment! We'll see you soon for our other child's braces!

I'm a bit of a snob about teeth. My first job, as a teenager, was for a pedodontist so I am interested in the technology involved in orthodontics. EOWO did a superior job showcasing the latest, useful technology and keeping me in the loop on what they thought and how they hoped to accomplish it. My younger daughter is also a client. I highly recommend them.

Our experience with all the doctors at Embrace Our World Orthodontics has been wonderful!!! The entire staff and doctors are professional, prompt and make each visit a comfortable, valuable and efficient experience. I appreciate the fact they are respectful of the schedules and take patients on time. Also, the entire atmosphere at the office is one of enjoyment and you can clearly see the staff and doctors enjoy their patients and what they are doing. That translates to a great experience for everyone. Thank you for providing superior service and making my children's smiles something they will be proud of forever!!!

Everybody is always so friendly and helpful. I had my braces for 32 months so I spent a lot of time in the office and never had an unpleasant experience. Thank you everyone!!

We had the best experience possible dealing with Embrace Our World Orthodontics. From the staff to the doctors, everyone was great. Price and payment plans work for our budget. My daughter is very happy with the results and more confident because of it. Our family couldn't have had a better experience. Thank you EOWO!

I should talk about how much my daughter loved it, because she did - especially how gorgeous her smile looks now! But I'm going to talk about me. I loved it. I loved it for a million reasons. How easy it was to make appointments, the reminders, the child-led check-in process, the tranquil waiting room (seriously, I could nap there!), the upbeat staff, the visuals, the gaming systems, the movie on the big screen. All of it. Such attention to detail. All so very positive. You guys are pros at every element of making orthodontics pleasant and, yes, even fun. Seriously, can I come take a nap in your waiting room??

It was a great experience from start to finish. Doctors & staff are all very friendly. Love the way I would always hear someone singing along to the music. :-) I'm very happy with the results & I would definitely recommend Embrace Our World Orthodontics to anyone looking to have their smile straightened. :-) Thank you!

I want to Thank You for the beautiful smile you gave my daughter, Megan!!! Your office is wonderful!!

Our experience over six years and three children in braces with Embrace Our World Orthodontics has been wonderful! The staff is friendly and helpful. We've had our share of appointments that I needed to reschedule and orthodontic emergencies, and the staff has always been able to accommodate us without any censure or problems. We've had several occasions where they have gone well beyond expectations. They make the experience as fun as possible for the kids, have excellent communication via email and reminders, and are competitive price wise compared with places my friends use. Most importantly, my children's teeth look beautiful!

It was a huge decision as an adult whether or not to get braces and I am so glad I did. Dr Schlueter was extremely kind and patient. He was always welcoming and made me feel at ease by explaining everything in detail. The staff was equally as welcoming and friendly. I always left with a complete understanding and feeling encouraged. I was a patient for over 3 years and although the treatment was a lot longer than expected the price never changed. I was never asked to pay an additional fee which was a blessing. I can not tell you what a difference Dr. Schlueter and his staff made in my life. I am smiling with confidence for first time in a lot of years!

Highly recommend! The staff has always happy and helpful. The plan was right on target and she has a beautiful smile!! Thank you!

Having 5 boys all go through the ortho experience add in a few moves to different states. I have been to 3 other offices. Also, being in the dental field I am very picky who is our orthodontist! I went on several consultations here in Saint Louis...And am so happy I found Dr. Shanker! He did a great job on my son and I am super happy with the results! The girls in the office ALL are supportive, professional and great to explain things to my son and me! THe office is all around my favorite and I will highly recommend it!

My daughter was a unique case and had quite a few things going on with her teeth. We started when she was 6 years old with two different night guards and through the course she ultimately had spacers, tongue thrust speech therapy, oral surgery, and braces for almost 3 years. She is now 15 almost 16 and braces were removed last week and she looks FABULOUS! I did personally visit and interview other orthodontists and while I found they were comparable in price, some offering discounts if you book during school hours,....what sold me on Shanker, Shanker, & Schluetter was that they offered complete value and quality of treatment ... all 3 doctors were involved in my daughters progress. They all collaborated while most offices have one doctor and one opinion. This turned out to be very important because she was ranked in the 20% of difficult cases. In addition, I like that the doctors are conservative. I brought my son in for various progress type appointments and each time Dr. Shanker advised to do nothing but wait....mostly for all baby teeth to fall out. Finally, on our last visit we received good news that our son actually needs no orthodontic treatment. How many doctors are honest enough to tell you that??? I would be remiss if I did not offer a standing ovation to the entire team from the front desk, technicians and accounting - everyone and I mean everyone is so friendly, and I truly believe the work environment promotes an awesome place to work. You can tell everyone enjoys their job and what they do. It has been the best experience and I am so thankful for Shanker, Shanker Schluetter - I can't imagine going anywhere else. I recommend them to EVERYONE!!!!

We had the very best experience at Embrace Our World Orthodontics. The value we received for treatment was exceptional. I felt the communication was great.

The beautiful straight teeth and the clarity of the financial process might be all the review I need mention, but having a son with disabilities, the success of the process must be mentioned. The energy level and time from all associates of EOWO helped our son manage his own orthadontia needs to the best of his abilities. Services included drawing pictures to help him 'see' what he needed to do, lending us dental equipment to aid where fine motor skills were lacking, and taking time to ensure he understood what needed to be done.

Very informative about process and length of treatment. Doctors and staff very friendly. Still have 2 more children that will need orthodontics and will not hesitate to bring them to Embrace Our World.

The doctors at Embrace Our World are top notch. The entire process is clearly explained and the quality of care is remarkable. Dr. Gary was my orthodontist (30 years or more ago)so when it was time to bring my two children to an orthodontist I didn't have a second thought. Dr. Gary's reputation is evident by the growth of the practice. His son is equally impressive and caring. Last, but certainly not least, Dr. Schlueter is our favorite (no disrespect to Drs. Shanker). Thank you, Andrew's teeth look beautiful.

Our experience with the orthodontists at this office has been nothing but wonderful! Our appointment wait times were minimal and the staff and orthodontist were patient and attentive with my young daughter. She now has a beautiful smile!

Considering that Orthodontics is never an inexpensive process Embrace Our World makes it much easier to digest. The professionalism and truly caring attitude of ALL the team members is unsurpassed. It was a pleasure having our daughter Olivia's beautiful smile reconstructed by them...well done all and thank you.

Embrace Our World Orthodontics is fabulous! All the doctors are amazing and give very wonderful individualized care to each patient. The staff and doctors go above and beyond to make each patient feel special and happy about having braces! I recommend them to anyone and everyone that hear is thinking about Orthodontics. Wonderful wonderful group!!

From day 1 with my daughters teeth the team at Embrace Our World put her needs first. Kacie started out with a mouth piece for several years before she was even able to start on braces. And through it all the doctors and assistants were a joy to work with. There were several times where an emergency visit had to be made because of a broken bracket and they were very accommodating in getting her early the next business day. Love the time span the office was open and how they worked around the child's school schedule. I have referred several people and will continue to do so.

We tell everyone we can about how wonderful Embrace Our World Orthodontics is. The first time we went to get our daughter evaluated, we felt very welcomed and comfortable. Every single staff member is so friendly and attentive...every single time! Our younger daughter was apprehensive about getting braces, but after her first visit, she was all for it! They really have a way of making it fun for their patients. Thanks for the beautiful smiles!

Always a friendly, fun, welcoming atmosphere at Shanker, Shanker & Schlueter! We had a fantastic experience there, and my daughter's smile looks beautiful!

If I could give this Orthodontic office a 10 I would have. Wonderful Doctors and Staff! Both of my Children are patients and the treatment they get is exceptional. I believe the value and price of service is equal or better than all other Orthodontic offices. Everyone is so accommodating.
