Thank you for choosing Valley Orthodontic Group for your care. Our practice is like no other, offering features and benefits to deliver the finest orthodontic care in the greater Phoenix and Tucson areas. We are pleased to provide answers to frequently asked questions.
The Doctors
Our orthodontists are highly qualified orthodontists with dental specialty certification. Dr. Daniel J. Grob is a board certified orthodontist as well as a Marquette University trained prosthodontist. He lectures extensively to groups on topics ranging from occlusion to growth and development of the face.
Dr. Barakat is a university trained orthodontist. She recently moved here from New Jersey with her family to practice in the valley.
When Do We Start?
Dr. Grob’s patented Treat By Twelve’s system will help to answer the question of, “Should we consider early or Phase I treatment?” This system is based on research, publications in respected journals and years of experience to properly determine the time to begin treatment.
FACE FIRST Therapy
Patients may be enrolled in Face and Tongue Muscle Therapy (Face First) with or without early care to properly train and balance facial muscles. (Think “Chew with your mouth closed!”) Limited therapy is included in our treatment fee, and it is our philosophy that it is especially important.
COSMETIC AND COMFORTABLE!
Show your smile, not your braces, while in treatment. Options include Clear and Mini Braces, as well as Invisalign for most patients, offering extra comfort and style. We also offer the latest in self-ligating or Damon braces for non-tooth removal therapy and accelerated comfortable treatment.
ORTHODONTICS is AFFORDABLE!
We participate in numerous insurance and dental plans that provide for special fee arrangements. In addition, we offer our Family Smile Plan that provides a host of benefits for your family members, including multiple child discounts.
Our GUARANTEE!
Like any medical or dental service, it is difficult and unethical to guarantee the result. However we guarantee that you will only pay once to be treated. Our Great Smile For Life Guarantee is a unique program offering patients peace of mind and financial incentives should re-treatment become necessary in the future for whatever reason.
COMMUNITY

During the past 25 years, Dr. Grob has donated tens of thousands of dollars of discounted treatment to benefit the school districts within the practice area.
