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

My son began his treatment in about 2nd grade (now in 8th grade) with functional, psychological, and cosmetic problems. Now, thanks to the personalized and innovative treatment he received from Dr. Shanker, Dr Shanker, Dr. Schlueter and the orthodontic assistants, his bite is corrected and his smile is beautiful! We are very grateful for their talents!

Office staff is great. Early treatment meant my son's time in braces was short.

Quality of treatment is outstanding with all 3 doctors. Staff is courteous and professional and always willing to fix small problems quickly.

Good value, great communication and AMAZING quality of treatment!! Love ALL the staff.

My daughter was very comfortable going there. The doctors and staff are caring and always smiling. An outstanding facility!!

The entire staff is very pleasant a considerate. They are very good at making sure the parents know what is going on with the progress of their children's braces/appliances.Great place !!

Our experience with Shanker, Shanker & Schlueter Orthodontics could be described in one word - Outstanding! The entire team of Doctors and staff are experienced, knowledgeable and very friendly. After each visit they made sure that we understood what was going on and what to expect. After two and half years of visits our daughter's smile is gorgeous. Need I say more?

I highly recommend Embrace Our World Orthodontists for yourself or your child. The staff continually goes above and beyond during every visit. I honestly could not be happier with my daughters beautiful smile. I haven't seen so many selfies taken since she had her braces removed. What a great experience we have had with Embrace Our World Orthodontists. They definitely are the absolute BEST.

THE BEST THING THAT'S HAPPEN TO ME IN A LONG TIME!! CHANGED MY LIFE FOR THE BETTER, SMILE IS SO NICE AND PEOPLE COMENT ON THEM ALL THE TIME! I'M BLESSED TO GET TO KNOW YOUR WHOLE STAFF,FROM THE DR.'S TO ALANA, MARY, KAREN, DOPEY, SLEEPY, AND DOC. EVERYONE WAS VERY HELPFUL AND KIND !!! THANK'S AGAIN STEVE

Our experience at Shanker, Shanker & Schlueter has been top notch with both of our kids. We could not be any happier with the outcome of their teeth and the quality of care our kids received was exceptional. Every staff member was friendly, polite and competant and all three doctors are AMAZING. We love Dr. Schlueter and can't say enough positive things about him. He is great with people of all ages and shows each one of his patients respect and kindness. He is always smiling and really cares about the outcome of each one of his patients. Everyone in that office seems to have a smile on their face when you are there and they all work well together. I highly recommend this practice to everyone I know looking for quality orthodontic care. We are so grateful for Dr. Brian Schlueter!

Fantastic care!!

This group effectively communicates the entire process. We were able to pay for the braces over an 18 month period with zero interest and it covered everything. From bumper to bumper/brace to brace /). All staff are very nice and knowledgable. We are now in the retainer process, now that the braces have come off. My son was not the best about maintaining his braces, and the doctors explained each time that it was up to 'him' when they came off and how long it would take. Thank you!!!

I cannot possibly express how happy I am wit my experience over the last 3 years with Dr's Shanker and Dr. Schlueter. I decided to get braces at 27 years old...which is a tough decision to make. Turns out it's the best thing I could have ever done for myself! Every visit I felt very welcomed by the staff, as if they were my own personal cheerleaders! I had a blast every time I stepped foot into the office, and at the same time knew i was recieving the best care possible. I was referred for a mandibular advancement surgery which I had in the fall of 2014. The doctor that I was referred to was also amazing...I look and feel better than ever. I had my braces off this month...and I just want so say the entire experience has been life changing. I could not imagine going anywhere else for any orthodontic care. Absolutely, hands down, best medical office I've ever stepped foot in . As much as I am happy to be done with everything, I will miss going there every couple weeks!!!

I was impressed with the comprehensive treatment plan. I was also impressed that as her teeth changed and improved the plan was flexible and met her needs. The only problem was my daughter felt she was pushed and encourage to do something that would make her treatment end sooner only to actually wear it longer. For example, she was told if she wore her head gear exactly as she was told, her treatment would be about 9 months. It took 12 and she wore it religiously, even to overnight parties!! She felt deceived. So each visit she wanted me to sit by her and make the doctor tell me what was going on and how long it was going to take so her hopes didn't get too high. Visits became stressful. We were thankful that last day when they told us it was coming off and the balloons were on the chair!!

The office of Dr.s Shanker, Shanker & Schlueter is wonderful! They have a great atmosphere and a fantastic staff. They were very easy to work with and took the time needed to make sure everything was just right. My son had so many obstacles just to get the braces, then years of adjustments and finally jaw surgery. Every step of the way they put us all at ease and made sure things were as they should be before moving on to the next step. I would highly recommend this fantastic group of phenomenal people!

The two words that I would use to describe Dr. Shanker and Schlueter's office is Excellent and Awesome! From the minute that you walk in the door from the front desk staff to the technicians and doctors everyone is cheerful and makes you feel right at home. The office has an upbeat cheery atmosphere and the staff really strives to make the experience of orthodontia a positive one. My kids have always looked forward to coming to their appointments and the results have been amazing! Thanks so much.

Both of my daughters have had braces from Embrace Our World. We have no complaints. Excellent service.

We had a wonderful, professional experience over many years. The staff is extremely pleasant, the doctors are very thorough, and there is great communication. I would definitely refer my family and friends to this office.

My experience at Shanker, Shanker & Schlueter was fantastic. As an adult patient, I was a little nervous and apprehensive about starting treatment. However, the doctors and staff were welcoming and friendly from the moment I walked through the door. Thanks for everything!!!

Dr. Gary Shanker, Dr. Jonathan Shanker and Dr. Brian Schlueter provided our daughter with excellent orthodontic care! The entire staff is so friendly and welcoming. We are glad we chose this office and are grateful for such a wonderful experience.

Extremely happy with the staff and doctors at your office. Also extremely happy with the results of my daughters braces. Waiting for our other daughter to start treatment for her teeth and I'm sure we will be just as please with the results, staff and doctors.

Excellent orthodontic experience! The staff is SO friendly and helpful. The docs are kind, attentive and professional. Love our daughter's beautiful smile! We will definitely be back when our youngest is ready. Thank you for everything!!

Thank you. I had heard horror stories of teens and braces but my son had no issues. We found the experience very easy and manageable. The Shanker team was very supportive and never made us feel uncomfortable even if we showed up with a broken wire or two..... All the employees are very caring and have positive attitudes which helped my son have a positive attitude toward this experience. Keep up the great work. Thank you.

All I can say is WOW !! Both of my children (Brock & Lexi) received their braces through 'Embrace our World' and we could not have been happier ! The doctors and chair side assistants were AWESOME & Very Friendly ! I would have to also give a shout out to the GREAT Front desk girls Karen & Kelly. They always are very friendly and do a great job scheduling my kiddos appointments which is not an easy task with our family/school/sports schedules. I am always raving about this practice to my friends and neighbors to send any potential business to this awesome practice. They have also improved on their time management with appointments. In the past, sometimes this office would run a little behind schedule but I have noticed an improvement in the last 6 months !! GREAT JOB !! :o)
