Strickland Orthodontics

About the Practice

At Strickland Orthodontics, our mission is simple: to improve life one smile at a time by delivering exceptional, patient-centered orthodontic care with integrity, expertise, and a personal touch.

We believe that every beautiful smile begins with confidence – and that confidence changes how people feel about themselves, how they interact with others, and how they engage with the world. From the moment a patient steps into one of our five convenient locations in south Alabama, they are welcomed into a supportive, family-oriented environment where their comfort, understanding, and individual goals drive every decision. Our team combines advanced orthodontic technology with compassionate communication so treatments – whether braces or Invisalign – are efficient, effective, and enjoyable. 

What makes Strickland Orthodontics unique is our commitment to long-term relationships and comprehensive care: we guide patients through every step of their smile journey with personalized treatment plans and a focus on lifelong oral health. With over 19,000 successful smile transformations and a reputation for warm, professional care, we strive to make the orthodontic experience as smooth and empowering as possible – because we know a confident smile can truly change a life.

Why We’re Excited About GT Smiles

We are excited to offer plant-based and more sustainable retainer options because they represent meaningful innovation at the intersection of patient care and environmental responsibility.

Many of our patients value products that align with their personal and environmental values, and being able to provide effective orthodontic solutions with a reduced ecological footprint enhances the overall patient experience. Sustainable materials help us meet patients where they are – not just in terms of comfort and performance, but also in the values they hold regarding sustainability and conscious consumption. This aligns with our broader commitment to offering modern, patient-focused treatment options that reflect both clinical excellence and thoughtful stewardship of the world our patients live in.

Our Experience Working with GT Smiles

We have been impressed with the performance and patient feedback on GT Smiles / GT FLEX GREEN retainers.

Patients appreciate the comfort and fit, and many have noted that the plant-based material feels comparable to traditional retainers while giving them peace of mind that they’re choosing a more sustainable option that is not petroleum based.

Dr. Stephen Strickland, DMD

From a clinical perspective, the product has performed reliably and integrated seamlessly into our retention protocols, and our team values the support and responsiveness we’ve received from the GT Smiles team throughout implementation. Together, these factors help us continue to offer high-quality orthodontic care that aligns with both our practice values and the preferences of our patients.
