Your New Smile
At Rucker Orthodontics, we know that braces and Invisalign mean more than straight teeth. Orthodontic treatment is a smart investment in your physical and emotional well-being. Straight teeth and an attractive smile enhances overall health, creates better facial balance, and improves self-esteem. Properly aligned teeth also make brushing and flossing easier, preventing costly and avoidable dental procedures in the future.

Rucker Orthodontics is a certified Damon System Braces provider! Damon Braces combines the use of tie-less brackets and high-tech arch wires to minimize discomfort and help create a lifetime of confidence in your smile!
Beautiful, straight teeth you've always wanted - without the braces! Invisalign uses specially designed clear aligners in order to straighten your teeth! Unlike traditional braces, these aligners can be removed to brush, floss and eat!
We are a digital impression practice! No Goop. No Gagging. Even under the best conditions, traditional impressions were messy, uncomfortable, and occasionally unreliable. That's why we are proud to offer goop-free, completely digital impressions of your teeth with our 3D iTero element digital impression scanner. Your digital impression is faster, more accurate, and offers you a superior clinical endpoint compared to the old putty based impressions.
We are humbled by our patient reviews

Great experience all around. Easy to make and change appts. Love the photo shoot at the end and the discount on whitening. The only thing I would have liked was for them to go over all of the different braces options while I was with the payment person at the beginning of the process. I didn't know to ask about other products they offered.

Just like previous interactions with the staff at Dr. Rucker’s office, today was no different. From the front office staff, to the technicians, hygienists, and Dr. Rucker himself, we felt completely at ease with the care that we received. Everyone was very conscientious to make sure that we were fully informed about every aspect of the process, and we would not hesitate to recommend Dr. Rucker to family and friends.

We had our first appointment at Rucker Orthodontics on my daughter’s 8th birthday. Not only did we feel like they rolled out the red carpet for us, but the entire experience was warm, personal and professional. Both my girls were welcomed with smiles and enthusiasm and my 8 year old ended up with braces at our first appointment! Wow...what service! Love this office already and all the staff seem amazing! We feel like we are in the best of hands for our orthodontics journey :)Thank you!!

Dr. Rucker and his staff are top notch! He had a vision for my daughters 'cone head' like teeth and over 20 months helped my little girl go from not wanting to smile to all SMILES all day long! We can't say enough about his caring fun office staff. Plus their renovated office makes you feel like you're in a spa.

I visited this office for my son because one of my friends recommended Dr. Rucker. My son has malocclusion. Airian guided us through all the consultation process. It was very professional, clear and easy to understand. Dr. Rucker was knowledgeable and friendly. He looked like a reliable person. Payment plan is flexible. So far we are happy with our choice. I will update more review later.

Had a great experience today with Dr. Rucker and his staff! They are very knowledgeable, friendly and patient. The appointment was for my 7 year old son and they explained everything to the both of us in a way he could understand as well. He enjoyed his visit and left the same day of our consultation with braces. Glad we chose this team to take care of my kiddo and would definitely recommend them!

I am going with the Invisalign to help correct my teeth and I am absolutely ecstatic that I decided to go with Dr. Rucker's office. I will most definitely recommend this office to any and everybody who's asking to help correct their smile.

Dr. Rucker and his staff are PHENOMENAL! They were all so helpful from start to finish and I can NOT say enough how thrilled I am with my daughter's treatment and GORGEOUS smile!

Dr. Rucker’s character is seen throughout his practice and staff. Today my daughter had Dameon braces put on and I overheard him complimenting his technician, telling her she will do great anywhere she applies herself, and that he loved the pictures she took. It’s such a comfort to be in an office where the staff and doctor are happy. The office is as beautiful as the smiles Dr. Rucker creates and my kids love him! He is sharp and knows his “stuff!” My son has all kinds of problems going on but Dr. Rucker takes one problem at a time and is very conservative in how and when he treats them. Over this last year, we have seen such a big difference in my sons smile and confidence and can’t wait to see the end result with both of my kiddos. I look forward to becoming an Invisalign patient soon!! I’m so thankful we found this place and I know my kids are in great hands!

Dr. Rucker is truly the best in the business! His staff is always so nice and everyone is right on schedule unlike other offices. They see you on your appt time and get you out quick too. Rosie has been not only apart of my sons journey with braces but mine as well. She’s the best when it comes to anything the doctor doesn’t do. She has the best bedside manner along with being accurate on anything she has to touch. If you’re looking for a great, professional, best results without pain and most importantly treated as you matter not a number. Rucker Ortho supersedes all excpections!

I was referred to Dr. Rucker by a friend who's daughter had braces and she was happy with her daughters results. My son's consult was 2 years ago. He had his braces on to straighten a couple of teeth no major work was needed. About 16mo later I can't get him to stop smiling. The office staff is so pleasant, at the most we had a 5-7 min wait to be seen and have his adjustments done. Back office staff always made my son feel welcome and I never felt like a hovering parent! We were there through the construction expansion of his office and there was never any inconvenience. His office is clean, bright, and modern. For younger kids or siblings they have a waiting room with tablets to play on. I would strongly recommend Rucker Orthodontics.

I have to say that Dr. Rucker and his staff exceeded my expectations from the moment we first walked in their door. 🙂 And bonus my son has an absolutely great smile! I was unaware of the Damon Method prior to our first visit to Rucker Orthodontics and was very impressed with the process. Do your research it will be worth the extra time. Thank you Dr. Rucker, Rosie and the rest of the team.

If you must get braces this is the place to do it! I have 4 children, all of whom require orthodontics. I found Dr. Rucker after my first 2 children had already gone through both surgery and braces to fix their bites. When it was time for my younger 2 to do the same thing I wanted to look around again and see if there was anyone who thought that they could avoid surgery and Dr. Rucker was the only one who said he could do it. Well a year and a half later my 3rd daughters bite is fixed without surgery and my 4th daughter just started treatment. I just wish I would have found him sooner! Dr. Rucker really is very knowledgable and up to date on the most current and effective treatment options. Also, the office staff is wonderful; nobody wastes your time but they also never rush you - it is really the perfect balance for a busy mom. I really couldn't be happier with my experience.

We loved our experience at Rucker Orthodontics! I’ve had now 2 kids go through the whole process and it was seamless. The office is beautiful and welcoming, the office staff members are kind, friendly and personable. Our wait times were minimal and check in was super easy. Each visit was short and quick allowing us to feel like we could make visits even during school hours. If my kids had brackets coming off or pokey wires as the teeth moved into place, we were able to get in quickly to make those adjustments. Dr. Rucker makes the kids feel comfortable and establishes a relationship with them allowing them to be at ease at their visits. Because he uses the Damon method, many visits are as easy as switching a wire. That method I feel appears to be the most efficient and the least painful. The office also has updated technology when it comes to recommending a treatment plan, taking xrays, and making molds for retainers. I recommend Rucker Orthodontics to anyone seeking a straight beautiful smile for themselves or their kids!

Dr. Rucker and his staff are amazing. We had several opinions for our sons final phase due to a bad experience with our first phase of treatment at another local office. Rucker Orthodontics is beautifully designed and impressive as soon as you walk through the door. The staff is friendly, patient and kind from the initial phone call to make an appointment and throughout the entire experience. Our family was a little anxious starting treatment and Dr. Rucker was nothing short of awesome making sure to make this phase a pleasant experience for all of us. He's fun for the kids and was patient and sure to answer all of my millions of questions before starting treatment. Our sons case is a bit more complicated than most, and after a few scary opinions elsewhere suggesting very invasive (outdated) methods for correction, Dr. Rucker came in with a newer, less invasive approach that will keep him comfortable while giving our boy the beautiful smile and confidence he deserves!

For Rucker Ortho 5 stars is an understatement. The amazing group of people there are very respectful, knowledgeable and take pride in what they do. They treat you like family. I came in because my smile played a huge part in my confidence. I used to cover my mouth when I laughed etc. I was nervous at first but Rucker Ortho is a very comfortable place to be. I had the damon braces for about a year and a half and best believe I do not cover my mouth anymore! I appreciate everything they have done for me and can't thank them enough. Nothing negative to say here! Thanks again to all of you there at Rucker Orthodontics. You guys truly make a difference.

Amazing people and office. Classy operation. Dr. Rucker and his entire team are very friendly, knowledgeable and welcoming. Using state-of-the-art equipment he prescribes an extremely detailed plan to achieve each patient’s most beautiful smile. You are able to see what your results will look like before you even begin treatment. Very helpful to teenagers who are about to make a commitment to braces or Invisalign. My daughter is thrilled to begin treatment, knowing what she has to look forward to after completion. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND Rucker Orthodontics to anyone who needs braces/Invisalign. We’re very thankful to have found them! Thank you so much for your help and encouragement!

I wish we could give more than 5 stars! Our daughter was TERRIFIED to get braces on. She was crying, shaking, and resistant to going back to the chairs. But Sarah was amazing! Her patience and positivity (and did I mention patience?) helped my daughter get comfortable and calm down so that they were able to get it done. Dr. Rucker was so great with her, too! Definitely an amazing team, and my daughter is a very satisfied customer. I just heard her say to herself, "These braces are awesome!"

Dr Rucker is indeed a professional and he’s “great with children!” His staff extends excellent PR, transparency, open communication and provides an enjoyable atmosphere to everyone that walks through their doors. Whether it’s a consultation, scheduling an appointment or sitting with Dr Rucker the entire staff is just amazing. When it was time to look into getting my daughter braces, Dr Rucker was highly recommended as the Orthodontist to meet our families’ needs. I’m extremely impressed with my daughter’s incredible transformation in just a short time and with that my son is now with Rucker Orthopedics for braces. From my family to theirs...”Thank you Rucker Orthodontics” for being that perfect partnership during this phase with my children.

Our family chose to return to Dr. Rucker and his staff now that our second child is ready for treatment. The staff is knowledgeable and helpful and our first visit went great. The team was able to start treatment on the same day, which is very helpful for busy families like ours. The staff worked very well together as a team, making our transition from assessment to treatment seamless. The best part was that everyone who was in contact with my son was deliberate in communicating with him at each step of getting his braces placed. I was pleased to see that it was important to them that my son be an active participant in his treatment.

Great atomosphere. The staff is always upbeat and happy. We didn't know much about braces when we started out, but after some research, and meeting with Dr.Rucker, we deciced to go with Dr.Rucker and Damon Braces. Mainly because we really liked Dr.Rucker and his staff and we understood that with the Damon system there would be less pain and discomfort with fewer visits needed. We told Dr.Rucker we wanted a natural smile, we didn't want to completely transform her teeth, we just wanted to fix the wonky ones and get them to where they were supposed be naturally. Dr.Rucker listened to what we were wanting to achieve, told us it would take about a year and half, and now my daughters teeth looks like she never wore braces. Her teeth are perfectly perfect for HER, and that's what was important to us.

They have the best staff! We specifically picked Dr. Rucker because of his knowledge. If you want old school Orthodontics with medieval appliances, then this is not the place for you. He is the only one that was willing to help my daughter without the torcherous devices that other orthodontists recommended and I wasn't willing to put her thru that unnecessarily. We now have 3 of our daughter's seeing him. Dr. Rucker and all of his staff are amazing and super friendly! We couldn't be happier. 😊

I researched and visited a few offices including Dr. Rucker’s in my search for a good orthodontist. When I walked into Dr. Rucker’s office, I was really impressed with the ease of check-in and the environment itself. The office is state of the art with contemporary decor that is cool, yet warm and inviting. The whole office team, from front desk to back office were welcoming and provided great service. Everyone has a smile on their face 😊, including the patients. Dr. Rucker put my mind at ease and after speaking to him and meeting with Airian, I was confident in putting my daughters smile in his hands. I don’t think I can ask for more in an orthodontist. My daughter is happy with the choice as well. With every visit, she goes in and out with a smile. She especially likes that she can check herself in, via the touch screen pad. I appreciate the time spent with me to explain the process thoroughly and also the payment program options. Most of all, I love that they offer the Damon braces. I’ve researched this particular orthodontia treatment and I’m relieved that Dr. Rucker uses them on his patients, my daughter being one of them. I look forward to seeing my daughter’s improved smile after her treatment and I’m especially fortunate to have found an excellent doctor and great office to work with. The team is wonderful, thank you Kailey!

We had a great experience yesterday! The staff was very friendly. Dr. Rucker was very kind and gentle with my daughter. They were very informative and took care of all of our questions and concerns. We have been to two other orthodontist and this was a far better experience than in the past. Thank you Dr. Rucker and staff!

I am so glad that I took the time to to read the reviews of many orthodontist or I might not of come across Rucker Orthodontics! At first I thought hmmmm...so many 5 star reviews?? But after taking my daughter there, I knew why. What a treat to see such a professional, friendly and extremely welcoming staff! The office is beautiful, soothing and spotless!! Dr. Rucker is so knowledgeable and caring. My daughter was so nervous at first, but was made to feel relaxed after the first few minutes. Never waited longer than a few minutes in the waiting room. I have never been this happy with any dental or orthodontics office. I highly recommend Dr. Rucker, I wish more places could be like this!!

It’s happening again! We get to spend lots of time with our favorite crew at Rucker Orthodontist 😬☺️ My son just got his braces on and I want to give a HUGE thanks to everyone at Rucker Orthodontist for taking their time with Devin. I will continue to refer them to all my family and friends! Their staff, quality, patience and facility is truly the BEST!!

My daughter had her braces taken off today. My son and younger daughter had braces put on today. We have been seeing Dr. Rucker for over 2 years now and look forward to many more. The office staff is friendly, efficient, and competent. I can honestly say we have not had one complaint throughout the entire process. We couldn’t be happier and we highly recommend Dr. Rucker for all of your orthodontic needs.

Incredible! The office is absolutely beautiful, the staff is very kind and helpful and Dr. Rucker is pretty awesome! I went in for a consult and walked out with braces 😁 in the same day! Maybe I got lucky with my timing because they were able to get me in right away but either way I would encourage everyone who is thinking about braces to stop in there first! You won’t be disappointed! Oh! And did I mention there’s a little play area for your kids if you’re an adult needing some ortho help?!

I was referred to Dr. Rucker by a friend and I'm glad that I listened. We were seeing another orthodontist at the time and I just wasn't happy with the care that my son was getting. From the moment that we walked into the office I knew this is where we were going to continue treatment for my kids. Not only is the office beautiful, the staff is fun. Best of all Dr. Rucker does not do unnecessary treatment!

There are not enough words to sing praises to Dr. Rucker and his team. I spent close to a year doing research to pick an oath for my teen, and after reading the 5 star reviews everywhere on the web, I chose Dr. Rucker. This was just the first reason, the second was the product differentiation because it's the only office in the area that uses Damon system and the latest technology. The 3rd reason was Airian, who is a wonderful coordinator, patient and very informative. She walked us step by step through the different options and payments. Which brings me to the last deciding factor, they offer 10% off if you make a payment in full instead of the monthly plans, which is what we took advantage off and saved almost $600. The braces just got put in today so we hope it's as smooth a process as it has been so far until the end. We are very grateful for Dr. Rucker and his amazing team!

Dr. Rucker and his staff demonstrate high levels of expertise. Five stars is not enough! The staff here is upbeat, yet highly professional. The equipment used is state of the art and the newest in the industry. No more cement molding and teeth pulling! The facility is nearly new with a modern welcoming feeling as you enter. Dr. Rucker is confident in his work and will recommend the best treatment plan/ option. The experience you receive from rucker orthodontics is transformational. They accept almost every insurance and also have interest free payment plans. I Highly recommended Rucker Orthodontics!

Office staff is very friendly, knowledgeable & accommodating. We have dozens of friends who are either patients themselves or their children are. So, it was only natural we called to schedule a consultation appt here. The appointment scheduling process was fast & easy. At my daughter's appointment all our questions were answered, treatment plan was discussed, material options were explained & we left with her appointment scheduled to put on her braces. Today she is having her braces put on & everything is running smoothly. If you're considering getting braces for you or another family member, we definitely recommend calling Rucker Orthodontics and setting up an consultation appointment.

My daughter just had braces put in this morning and Dr Rucker and his staff were great. So patient with her. She was not pleased having to have the retracters in her mouth, and was resistant. She was met with a great attitude, lots of patience, and humor. The team is very efficient, everything done in a timely manner, which with a young child is great. The office is very clean and set up nicely, with a small playroom in the waiting area. The paperwork is mainstreamed and easy to read/follow.Follow up: We just came today to get my daughters braces off and it's been a great yr of care here at Dr Rucker's office. They have done a wonderful job with my daughter and with her teeth. We have retainers now for 6 weeks and then go from there to the next phase. The staff is thorough and easy to talk to.

We have just begun with Rucker Orthodontics, but already I notice a difference in ease of scheduling and availability of appointments over my experience with my older daughter at other practices. I also notice that they are VERY prompt in calling patients back for their appointment and visits are completed thoroughly but promptly with little to no wait time. My friends whose children come here also report the staff is friendly, prompt, and available if emergencies arise.

We recently moved to Temecula and I knew our daughter was going to need braces so I searched for the best orthodontist in the area and came across Dr. Rucker, not only is he a wonderful dentist but his staff is so welcoming and extremely helpful. Dr. Rucker amd Alana both took the time to answer all my questions, and Season was so patient with me and all my rescheduling. I would definitely recommend anyone looking for a an amazing dentist with a fantastic staff to look no further go see Dr. Rucker.

I found Dr. Rucker's office thanks to the recommended yelp reviews and I've had an awesome experience so far! As soon as you walk in you are greeted by the receptionist and you sign in just by clicking your name on an iPad they have on the wall which is very convenient. The office is very nice, I love the clean ocean vibe I get from the place. You get your X rays right away and meet with Dr. Rucker where he asks you a few questions about yourself and tells you what his plans for your teeth are and shows you a before and after picture of what your teeth would look like. What really was the deciding factor on why I chose him was when he told me his belief that not only does he want to try to give me a straight and perfect smile but a smile that is symmetrical to my facial appearance! I have been to many dentist around my area and all they wanted was to pull healthy teeth to make room for braces. Dr. Rucker believes in the conservative and specializes in Damon Braces which in my opinion is a better form than traditional braces due to its light size and shorter treatment. After meeting with Dr. Rucker I was then seated with their auditor Alanah who has been very helpful in explaining the different options of braces, payment plans, and insurance. I went with the clear damon top and regular nickel braces bottom as my top teeth are mostly shown when I smile. A week later after my first appointment I finally got my damon braces! Special thanks to Carolyn and Rosie for setting up my brackets and explaining my new diet with braces!

When we brought our twins in for a consultation, the first thing that amazed me about Dr. Rucker's office was the welcoming atmosphere and more importantly, the availability for on-site Xrays. Our daughter had her first stage of braces 2 years ago and I remember what a pain it was chasing after Xrays. After meeting with Dr. Rucker, we knew immediately that he would be our "Ortho". We were so confident in our impression that as we were leaving for a cruise the next day, we told another mother of twins about Dr. Rucker. Surprisingly, on our return, our friend was so impressed with Dr. Rucker and his staff that she signed her kids up too! When we brought the kids into get their braces installed, Dr. Rucker and his team were already prepared and had our first child in a chair within minutes. The whole process took slightly over 2 hours for installation on both kids, all while other patients were coming in and out for their check-ups. As I sat in the front office area I noted this "lost art" in efficiency at doctors offices. Dr. Rucker, you and your staff have an amazing thing going! Please don't change a thing.

From the minute I walked into the office, I knew I had made the right choice. As an adult getting braces for the second time (the first time as a kid) I did my research. The reviews for the staff and Dr Rucker were awesome, and I can see why - they are so friendly to patients, but you can tell they all really enjoy working together, too. I chose Dr. Rucker because I wanted clear braces and he offers the Damon system. I was so excited during my consult to learn that this system would take less time than Invisalign, that I scheduled to get my braces on 6 days later. Dr. Rucker was so quick and efficient, it only took an hour. No pain, no uncomfortable struggling like in the old days - it was a breeze. THANK YOU to Dr. Rucker & the team, I look forward to my great smile. I would recommend them to anyone who is looking for ortho work for kids or adults!

The staff is INCREDIBLY FRIENDLY, Dr. Rucker is polite and informative, their office is beautifully decorated, and our appointments are quick and easy. Plus, they were over $500 or more cheaper than the three other orthodontists we spoke with, without the over an hour waiting room wait. can't recommend this office enough. They are over and beyond in customer service and general just NICE PEOPLE!!!

I have just started the process of braces. I feel confident in my decision to work with Dr. Rucker and his staff. I had gone to another orthodontist who said I needed four teeth pulled and metal braces for two years. I went to Dr. Rucker for a second opinion. I was relieved to hear I could avoid getting any teeth pulled, and he recommended a shorter treatment plan. What a relief! The staff explained everything thoroughly during my visits. The office is clean and comfortable. I look forward to working with Dr. Rucker and his team!

The office is comfortable and welcoming from the moment you walk in. Every staff member is kind, welcoming and knowledgeable. Evlach step in the treatment plan is carefully explained and questions are encouraged from both me as a parent and from my son, the patient. Coming from the east coast, I was pleasantly surprised with the treatment cost (significantly less than what u was quoted out east). Recommend without hesitation.

I couldn't be happier my good friend referred me to Dr. Rucker's office after learning my son needed braces. Dr. Rucker is extremely personable and took the time to answer all of our questions. The office is spotless and has such a functional flow to it. I love how modernized and accessible it is too. His Office and staff are top notch, so accommodating. They seriously thought of everything but most importantly my son is happy to go to his appointments which makes life easier. I will gladly be sending friends his way 👌🏼

Save yourself the time and hassle and use Dr. Rucker! Between myself and my friends we have consulted every ortho in town. Dr. Rucker was by far the best, from the system of braces he uses, the professional, friendly office, even his pricing. The office is beautiful and eveyone we work with has been stellar. Everything has been a pleasure. I wish Id discovered him sooner!

We are so pleased with Dr Rucker, his beautiful office and friendly staff. At our initial consultation, we were greeted with friendly smiles and immediately felt welcome. The office and waiting areas are immaculate and very pleasant. I really appreciated the knowledge and organization from his staff and that Dr Rucker spent time answering all our questions. After consulting with several orthodontists for braces, we were positive that Dr Rucker was score!

Had a great experience getting my braces on today. The office has a great feel...very comfortable. Dr Rucker was very thorough and has been very nice and informative from the first visit. Alana was very helpful answering any questions that I had. Rosie and Season were also very nice and put you at ease. Overall, I would highly recommend this office.They are honest, and aren't just looking to take your money...but they help you any way that they can.

What a great experience! Dr. Rucker and his staff and hands down the best at what they do. We had already gone through phase 1 of a 2 phase treatment for our son but decided after meeting Dr. Rucker and his staff, to move everything over to his office. They are friendly and warm and made the entire experience of getting braces on very comfortable. My son was a bit nervous but there were no molds or painful brackets, wire clipping or bands with their system of braces. It is the best decision that we have made.Thank you Dr. Rucker!

Dr. Rucker was referred to us by our friend to get a second opinion for our daughter after our less than stellar visit with another highly recommended doctor in the area. We immediately felt comfortable with Dr. Rucker and his staff as they actually took an interest in getting the proper care for her and didn't rush through explanations to get to the next patient. We HIGHLY recommend Dr. Rucker and his team for your orthodontic needs! Our daughter is now on her way to a more beautiful smile.

HIGHLY recommend. We interviewed 4 different orthodontists in the temecula/murrieta area and Dr. Rucker was by far our top choice! My son is 12 and his opinion was also very important in making our decision, and he wanted Dr. Rucker from the very beginning. My son has a very difficult case and Dr. Rucker has worked with us to achieve the best results with the least invasive measures. We are very excited to see the end result! Office is beautiful, staff is always helpful and friendly (no snotty front desk!!) Alana was awesome and held our hands through the financial portion and made everything very easy and pleasant!

Dr. Rucker is phenomenal. I was in search of the best orthodontist in this area after learning my daughter had an impacted eye tooth up near her nasal passage that would require an extraction, surgery and significant treatment to bring this important tooth into place. Dr. Rucker and his staff are so competent I immediately knew we had found the right practice. After six months of treatment, everything could not be going better! I highly recommend Dr. Rucker and this caring, professional team at Rucker Orthodontics' beautiful, state-of-the-art practice. Check out the Smile Portfolio on their website!

Dr. Rucker is very positive and he was excellent at getting my daughter excited and happy about the thought of braces (with a previous Ortho consult at another office, she left feeling frightened and was in tears). We are thrilled with the office! Alana and Carly are so friendly, helpful, and informative. Dr. Rucker's office is efficiently run and has a great environment. We love the Damon system used which has cut her treatment down from 2 plus years to a year, will be much more comfortable (she won't have a painful mouth appliance), and the cost ends up being quite a bit less. His treatment sounds perfect for to fix her open bite due to my daughter's habit of sucking her fingers as a baby until she was in kindergarten. What a lucky find in Temecula!!

Dr. Rucker is amazing as is his staff! I took my 9 and 11 yr olds in for a free consultation in their beautiful new office. They use state of the art technology and tools. I was impressed by how they thought through every detail of their office, from the iPad check in system that the kids do themselves, to the incredible digital x-ray that they display on a large screen monitor in their consultation room so you can see exactly what Dr. Rucker is talking about and really understand what the treatment plan will be for your child.We had both kids in braces within a week of each other. The appliances Dr. Rucker uses are the best and most current technology. The Damen System braces are excellent, no ties or rubber bands on the brackets, no pallet expander, no night time head gear, and no large uncomfortable bands around the teeth! A bonus is they only come in to the office every 10 weeks instead of the every 4 weeks for other types of braces.Dr. Rucker also gives each child a SoniCare Tooth Brush with a head made specifically for braces. These are crucial for their dental health while in braces.Our family is so happy we were recommended to Dr. Rucker by our Pediatric Dentist, Dr. Brian Smith who is right downstairs! We look forward to our journey to a beautiful smile for 2 awesome kiddos!

I just had to write a quick review to say how pleased we have been and continue to be with Dr Rucker. We saw 5 orthodontists for consultation, and ultimately the choice was made easy financially, as his practice was extremely reasonably priced AND they accepted our insurance. Luckily, Dr Rucker really knows what he's doing too -- my son's teeth look great! The office is fun for the kids, the staff is efficient, and they are always quick to respond to any questions or concerns. Overall great experience!

I can actually say that I am glad that I waited an extra year to get braces put on my son because had I had it done the first time we were advised to, we wouldn't have gotten to meet Dr. Rucker. He was referred to us by my son's dentist and got to meet him for a consultation. JT, my son was very comfortable with Dr Rucker and everything that he told him about what to expect. My son was so excited, he was actually counting down the days until his appointment to get them on. He wasn't even bummed out about some of his favorite foods that he might not be able to enjoy for a little while. Dr Rucker is very friendly and has a way of putting his patients, and their parents, at ease. We know what to expect from the treatment plan and he stands behind his product, his work, and his staff. I'm amazed at how much my son's teeth have responded so far and it's been less than 2 months since he's gotten them on. The staff is warm and friendly, making my son feel right at home in the office. They're very open to working with you on getting you scheduled when it's convenient for you, not them. I have no billing questions at all but if I did, I know who to go to for the answers. I will have to deal w/ my insurance carrier on some issues but I'm confident that the staff will help me clear this up ASAP with the appropriate paperwork they're requesting. I am very thankful that we found Dr Rucker because I know he cares about my son's teeth as much, if not more than I do.

Braces have been long time coming for our 13 year old son, and we wanted to find the right orthodontist. We found that in Dr. Rucker. He has taken the time with us to explain the Damon System, and we felt like it was a good fit for a teenager. The office staff is very professional and friendly. The office is comfortable for patients and their families that are waiting. I am highly recommending Dr Rucker to all of my friends! He has brought a new smile to our son's face, even though it has only been a few days. Thanks Dr. Rucker!

Dr. Rucker has been both a personal and professional friend of mine for the past 10 years...so you can trust my review. As a general dentist, I can easily say that Dr. Rucker is not only the most personable orthodontist, but also the most skilled person I have ever met. I highly recommend Dr. Rucker for any and all of your orthodontic needs! Trust me, you won't be disappointed!
Zack Nelson

As a fellow orthodontist, I've known Dr. Rucker for many years and I can say that I would trust him in the treatment of my own children. I think he provides the highest level of care. He is also lots of fun to be around - and since braces usually take around 24 months, you want an orthodontist who you and your kids enjoy seeing during that period. I highly recommend Dr. Rucker!
