The Whole Team Feels Like Family!

We absolutely love Dr. Lena and Dr. Eric! They are so sweet and fun. Dr. Lena helped my boys feel comfortable when they were both nervous to get braces on! Their office is absolutely beautiful, and the entire staff treats you like family from the moment you walk in!

What This Means for You

While this marks the beginning of a new era, it’s also a thoughtful and gradual transition. Dr. Hubbard will still be a familiar face around the office, working alongside Dr. Eric for the next several months in a more limited patient role. This partnership ensures a smooth, seamless handoff with no interruption to your care.

The heart of our practice isn’t changing—and that’s what matters most. Our incredible team at Hubbard Orthodontics will remain right here, providing the same friendly faces, personalized service, and dependable care you’ve always known. As Dr. Eric Bortnem steps into ownership and leads the practice forward, you can trust that our commitment to you and your family remains just as strong.

Carrying on a Legacy of Excellence

Dr. Hubbard and the entire team are genuinely excited about this transition. Why? Because we truly believe the Bortnems are the perfect fit. They share the same values, compassion, and dedication to treating patients like family. This isn’t just a change in leadership—it’s a continuation of the loving, community-focused care that has always been at the heart of our practice.

You’ll continue to be welcomed with warmth, treated with respect, and cared for like one of our own. That’s a promise—from our family to yours.

Stephenville Braces

Braces in Stephenville are a reliable and cost-effective option for correcting complex dental issues. They often work faster to close gaps and align teeth than some newer treatments, which can mean shorter overall treatment time.

Traditional metal braces use brackets, wires, and elastics to guide your teeth into place. With regular adjustments by our doctors, they remain among the most effective tools for achieving a straight, healthy smile.

Stephenville Clear Aligners

Clear aligners are a popular and discreet alternative to traditional braces in Stephenville. Instead of brackets and wires, they use a series of custom-made, removable trays that gradually straighten your teeth.

Made from smooth, comfortable plastic, the aligners fit snugly and should be worn 20–22 hours a day for best results. You'll switch to a new set every one to two weeks, as directed by Dr. Eric and Dr. Lena.

Clear aligners work well for many common orthodontic issues, but they aren’t right for every case. During your free consultation at Bortnem Orthodontics, we’ll help you determine if clear aligners are the right fit for your smile.
