Martin Orthodontics is the closest orthodontist for Newberry families. Our Jonesville office sits on the same road as Newberry High School, about 10 minutes east. Dr. Paul and Dr. Dave Martin practice together here, continuing the practice their father, Dr. Bill, founded in 1979. (We also have a second office in Chiefland, about 25 minutes south of Newberry, if that one is a better fit for your schedule.) Most Newberry patients can drop by for a consult, a wire adjustment, or an emergency visit without reshuffling their day around a long drive.
What Brings Newberry Patients to Martin Orthodontics
Short drive, same road. Newberry residents take Newberry Road (SR 26) east about 8 miles and arrive at our office at 13820 W Newberry Rd, Suite 300. That is roughly 12 to 15 minutes of driving, with no interstate and no downtown Gainesville traffic.
Proximity matters over the course of a braces treatment. You are looking at appointments every 6 to 8 weeks for a year or more, plus the occasional emergency when a bracket comes loose or a wire pokes. Keeping the office close means your kid does not have to miss a half day of school for an adjustment, and parents can usually combine the visit with a stop in Jonesville or Gainesville without it dominating the afternoon.
We have treated multiple generations of Newberry families. Parents who wore Martin braces in the 1990s now bring their own kids, and Dr. Paul and Dr. Dave have been in practice here long enough to treat the teachers and coaches who send us their students.
Services We Offer Newberry Residents
Every case we treat starts with a free consultation. One of our doctors evaluates your bite, explains your options in plain English, and gives you a firm quote before you commit to anything.
The treatments we offer cover every age and case type:
- Traditional metal braces. The most reliable tool for complex cases, bite corrections, and younger patients. Learn more about braces.
- Clarity Aligners. A discreet alternative to braces for mild-to-moderate crowding, gaps, and minor bite adjustments. Twelve to eighteen months of treatment, 22 hours of daily wear. Learn more about clear aligners.
- Retainers. The piece of orthodontic treatment most people skip and later regret. We custom-fit every retainer in-house. Learn more about retainers.
- Teen and child orthodontics. We see kids starting around age 7 for the initial evaluation recommended by the American Association of Orthodontists.

You will get a firm cost and coverage breakdown at your free consultation. For a general overview of what affects orthodontic cost, see our guide to braces cost in Gainesville.
What does a free consultation include?
A digital scan of your teeth (no gooey impressions), a complete exam with Dr. Paul or Dr. Dave, a review of your treatment options, and a firm quote for the recommended plan. No pressure, no obligation to book treatment that day.
Can we use clear aligners instead of braces?
Our Clarity Aligners work well for mild-to-moderate cases. At your consultation we will scan your teeth and tell you straight whether aligners can get you the result you want or whether braces are the better fit. Read more about our clear aligners.
