Meet the Team

For more than 30 years, Dr. C. William Groesch, Dr. Thomas J. Longos, Dr. Bethany R. Middleton, and their incredible staff have successfully met the orthodontic needs in the Springfield and Jacksonville areas. Every patient is treated as a unique individual and each smile as a custom case. Our premier orthodontic practice, not only develops sensational smiles, we help people achieve great oral health.

Our philosophy is to treat each of our patients the way we like to be treated: with respect and personal care. You will see this idea put into practice when you visit the office and meet our team. The friendly faces you see on our website would love to meet you and answer some of the questions you may have concerning your teeth and orthodontics.

Meet the Assistants

Our orthodontic assistants will help you prepare for your visit with the doctor. They ask if you have any concerns regarding your treatment, check to see if there are any loose or broken appliances, and assist the doctor with the treatment process.
