Our entire experience has been great! The doctors started it off by explaining everything in terms I could easily understand without talking down to me. The staff is always cheerful and it seems as if it would be a great place to work. My son's smile says it all! Thanks for everything =)

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!

My son just got his braces off today!! Yay!! His teeth look beautiful. I have enjoyed working with the staff at Embrace Our World. They are extremely helpful and considerate to our needs. The billing dept worked with me with the payments when I came across some hard times. He is now wearing retainers - case it or face it - look the saying. They will continue monitoring his teeth for quite a while, which I am thankful for. Thank you for an awesome job!!

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.

Very, very happy. Very professional, but very relaxed and fun environment. This has been a long journey, but my daughter's results are amazing, and her smile is even more beautiful. Can't say enough thank you's, but thank you to everyone.

The entire staff and doctors are professional, prompt and make each visit a comfortable, valuable and efficient experience.

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!!!

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??

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!

We had an outstanding experience with our son's braces experience. The staff was patient and understanding with our questions, concerns, and supportive of our son's needs while wearing braces. As parents, we felt that we understood the course of treatment; our son's teeth issues were complex but every step was carefully explained to us. We feel that he received outstanding treatment,and would highly recommend this orthodontic practice.

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!!!!

The quality of care and knowledgeable that the orthodontist(s) practice is outstanding! This orthodontist office was recommended by our dentist due to the extreme nature of our son's mouth. It was not near our home, almost an hour one way and 6 years later, the result is incredible! I highly recommend Embrace Our World Orthodontics not just for their expertise in the field, but for the amazing always helpful and kind staff too. Truly a great experience. Many Thanks.

Always professional. My son never complained once. Not that I want braces again for myself or my child, but I'd go back!! Thank you to everyone who works there and thank you all for always having a smile on your faces.

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.

I have had three children get braces here. The quality of care and attention to detail has been wonderful. The doctors and staff couldn't be nicer. The equipment is state of the art. The only issue ever was that if you had to change an appointment for any reason it was difficult at times to get something else convenient with your schedule. Other than that I had three great experiences here.

So refreshing to be in a atmosphere where it shows the staff cares about their patients! We were always treated with respect and no surprises with extra cost. We highly recommend Dr. Shankers Orthodontics! Thank You!

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.

My daughter started her treatment eleven years ago, when she was 5. I honestly couldn't be happier with the care and treatment that she has received for all of these years. The three doctors have all always communicated her treatment thouroughly. I have never had a negative experience with them or any of the assistants. Thank you all for such a positive experience and for giving my daughter 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.

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.

I have had two daughters go through Orthodontic care with Shanker, Shanker and Schlueter Orthodontics. The doctors and staff were always professional, helpful, and accommodating from the initial visit all the way until the removal day. They genuinely care about your child and strive to give them the best smile down to the smallest detail. They stay current with the latest technology in orthodontic procedures which is very important to me as a parent. My son is about to embark on his journey into braces and I wouldn't trust anyone else with his smile. I recommend them to everyone!

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!

Our daughter Sarah LOVED every visit! She thought everyone at the office was outstanding, and we agree! Everything from phone calls to make appointments to being in the "chair" were excellent. We were always welcomed by name and all questions were answered. Anytime there was a problem with needing more rubber bands to something needs adjusting, it was done! Sarah enjoyed the experience, her confidence in her smile is the greatest testimony! We loved you all so much, we have an appointment this week for our daughter Hannah and one of Sarah's classmates is starting his adventure with Embrace our World! Thank you so very much and keep doing what you are doing! You all ROCK!
