Meet Your Richland Orthodontic Team
Your care is led by Camille Sandifer, DMD, an orthodontist board-certified by the American Board of Orthodontics with advanced specialty training beyond dental school. Board certification signals a commitment to the highest standards in orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning, and it's a credential worth looking for when you choose a provider.
Dr. Sandifer works alongside an experienced clinical team that focuses exclusively on orthodontics. That specialization matters. Every day, our team places brackets, adjusts wires, tracks aligner progress and studies tooth movement. You get consistent, expert hands at every visit.
A few things that set our Richland-area team apart:
- Patient comfort first. We take time to explain each step so nothing feels rushed or confusing.

As Dr. Sandifer often says, giving you a great smile is her top priority, and the whole team shares that mindset. When you visit Sandifer Orthodontics you're treated like family, from the first phone call to the last appointment.

Frequently Asked Questions
At what age should my child see an orthodontist?
According to the American Association of Orthodontists, every child should have a first orthodontic evaluation by age 7. At that age, we can spot early issues with bite, jaw growth or spacing while treatment is still simple. Most kids won't need braces yet, but early monitoring helps us plan the right time to begin.
How long does orthodontic treatment take?
Most orthodontic treatment takes about 12 to 24 months, though minor cases can finish faster and complex ones may take longer. Your total time depends on your bite, tooth movement needed and how consistently you wear elastics or aligners. Dr. Sandifer will give you a realistic timeline at your free consult.
Do you offer payment plans or financing?
Yes. We offer financing options so you can start treatment without financial stress. Our team walks you through every option, including monthly payments and any insurance benefits you may have, so the numbers are clear before you begin.
