Patient Reviews

Hands down the best Ortho in our area. My son is wrapping up his only phase of braces and my daughter who is now in her second phase. All of our experiences at Dr. Rucker’s office have exceeded our expectations. Both offices are clean, modern, and well-organized, and scheduling has always been so easy and accommodating. Most importantly, the results have been amazing. Will continue to come here for all future orthodontic needs.

Our experience at Rucker Orthodontics has been beyond great. My son, Noah Ayala (12), is costeophobic and can become very anxious in medical and dental environments. From the moment we walked in, we were met with warmth, patience, and genuine care.

The dental assistant was incredibly supportive and compassionate, taking extra time to comfort Noah and guide him through everything in a way that made him feel safe and understood. Her kindness truly stood out and made a huge difference for him.

The dentists and front desk staff have been just as wonderful—welcoming, thorough, and always willing to explain things clearly. The entire environment feels calm, reassuring, and family-centered, which is such a gift when your child struggles with fear or anxiety.

We are deeply grateful for the care and respect shown to our son. Rucker Orthodontics is a place where patients are truly seen and treated with heart. We couldn’t recommend them more highly.

Just received my clear aligners after the holidays. Due to the holidays, it took longer than expected to receive my aligners, but Dr. Rucker called me personally to apologize and reassure me. Everyone is so nice and friendly.

3rd and final child to go through Rucker Ortho! Super excited about the new Murrieta location. Very convenient and it’s a gorgeous office. Millennial parents will dig the soundtrack too. Staff is kind and very good with kiddos.

Amazing experience, would recommend Rucker Ortho to anyone!!

We had an amazing experience! The dentist and the staff were friendly, professional and nice.Highly recommended!!!

Rucker is the best choice for ortho!!! Everyone was so kind and informative. They made the education process easy and visual. They use top of the line techniques and technology and in doing so my son was able to skip a painful process the other offices had insisted on. We couldn’t be happier with our decision to be their patient, and with 0% financing it was an affordable solution. We actually look forward to seeing them again 🙂 Beautiful office and all personnel are so friendly. Rosie is an experienced Technician and Dr Ryan is cool, which put my son at ease. Kids deserve the best care and this is the place to receive it!!!

Office and staff are great. Super informative and helpful with everything.

Best ortho office! Rosie is amazing!

My son just got his braces on, and it was a great experience. Rosie was fantastic! At every step she explained what was about to happen, which put him at ease. She was very gentle, positive and professional. Dr. Rucker was great as well, and we’re excited to see the outcome.

I had a great experience at Ruckers orthodontist. The staff was welcoming, professional, and always made me feel comfortable during visits. Everything was explained clearly, and the treatment process felt smooth and well-organized. I’m very happy with the results and would definitely recommend this practice to others.

My husband and I are super excited to start our braces journey with Dr. Jonathan Rucker and his amazing staff. The entire staff was extremely friendly, helpful, and professional. The office is designed well with modern decor, beautiful artwork and great music.

My daughter went in for a consult today and walked out with braces. They made it easy and the process was very quick. My daughter was so excited and the team did great. Everyone explained things very clearly and were very thorough.

I cant say enough about Rosie and the entire Rucker staff! It’s our 3rd time here with multiple family members and there’s a reason we keep coming back. Thank You for always taking the best care of us!!

Everyone in this office has been so helpful and friendly! This is our family’s first experience with braces, and they’re super patient with all of my questions!

My daughter got her braces on today and was very nervous. Rosie was so kind and patient with her explaining the steps and how to care for her braces. Thank you Rosie for encouraging Keira and cheering her on!

Wonderful and knowledgeable staff. A great experience!

Everyone is so welcoming. Everything was explained very well. Made my daughter feel very comfortable. Can’t wait to see the process in her teeth.

Omg !! I was expecting pain and stress and I did not even feel a thing! When they told me they were done I couldn’t believe how easy and pleasant the experience was. Seriously! The best!

My daughter just got her braces on with Dr. Rucker. They were so welcoming and answered all of our questions. So excited to see her results!

We absolutely love Rucker and the incredible team! We are here for our 3rd family member to get a perfect smile and wouldn’t consider anywhere else for our ortho needs.

We have the whole family getting braces here. So far it has been a great experience from the start. The staff takes the time to answer your questions and makes sure you are comfortable throughout the process. I would recommend.

This place is absolutely amazing!! and the whole staff is a delight to be around. The place is clean and feels new! Rose helped me today and was funny, caring and confident in her work and it showed! Her attitude and her work is a 100/100!!
