Welcome to
Liberty Hill Orthodontics
Drs. Barbara and Scot O’Donnell have been creating beautiful smiles in Liberty Hill and Central Texas for more than 25 years. We have only one location so that we can be here when you need us! We were the first orthodontic office in Liberty Hill and remain the only full time practice. In response to the needs of our community, we adjusted our schedule to mirror the Liberty Hill and Burnet school district calendars, allowing more convenient access to our services. Liberty Hill Orthodontics is proud to have been recognized as The Best Orthodontic Practice for 7 straight years. We are excited to offer patients Invisalign® clear aligners, iTero® Lumina™ imaging options, along with traditional braces and early interventional appliances. Learn more by calling our office today!
WHAT SETS US APART
A PERSONALIZED APPROACH
The team at Liberty Hill Orthodontics understands that every smile is unique, and so are the personalities of our patients. We will take the time to get to know you and deliver treatment in a gentle, caring manner.
Working with you, we can design a treatment plan that best meets your needs and concerns.
AN EXCEPTIONAL TEAM
We routinely receive compliments on our highly experienced team of compassionate staff members. Our shared purpose of excellence has been cultivated over many years, allowing us to retain team members. These talented individuals are well trained, excellent communicators and committed to creating a positive experience. Their knowledge and dedication make routine visits informative and enjoyable.
COMMUNICATION
Effective communication produces outstanding results. Parents are encouraged to accompany children into the clinic to observe, ask questions, and receive updates on progress. Drs. Scot and Barbara O’Donnell will partner with your general dentist, and in more complicated situations can recommend a team of specialists to provide you with exceptional results. We listen to your concerns and provide treatment options and recommendations so you are able to make an informed decision about your care.
CONVENIENT AND AFFORDABLE
All services are provided within our one location, which eliminates excessive travel times to other facilities. We are close to neighborhood schools, yet easily accessible to major thoroughfares. Ample parking and desirable appointment times minimize hassles for busy families and professionals. A variety of payment solutions enable us to make this investment affordable and stress-free.
MODERN TECHNOLOGY
Liberty Hill Orthodontics has recently updated all equipment technology in order to provide the safest, most comfortable and effective treatment available. Our x-ray machine allows us to take both 2D and 3D images utilizing the lowest radiation possible.
The Itero Lumina scanner eliminates uncomfortable dental impressions, provides photo realistic images and can even produce a simulated outcome.
Facial
Esthetics
BOTOX® is an FDA-approved, non-surgical treatment to prevent wrinkles from forming by weakening muscles of facial expression and other muscles in the head and neck that cause TMJ discomfort. After a complimentary consultation, treatment takes approximately 15 minutes. Dermal fillers add volume to the lips, nasolabial folds, oral commissures and other areas with lost volume.
