I got my braces off on Friday, November 22, 2024. I’ve had my braces with COS for five years now and never once had an issue with any of the staff. I never had a broken bracket or... wire (even when eating everything like normal 🫢). I definitely recommend them to anyone looking for an orthodontist. Thank you so much to everyone at the Summerville office. 😁read more
