About Markham Orthodontics

Markham Orthodontics is a dental practice on Truxel Road in the North Sacramento area of Sacramento, California. Orthodontic treatment straightens teeth and corrects bite problems using braces, clear aligners, or similar appliances over a period that commonly runs from about a year to several years depending on the case. It is offered to both children, where early evaluation can catch developing issues, and adults at any age.

At the core of a general dental practice is preventive and restorative care: checkups, professional cleanings, fillings, and screening for decay and gum disease before either becomes a bigger problem. It is the kind of appointment most people need on a routine schedule rather than only when something hurts.

Children benefit from starting dental visits early, generally by their first birthday or within six months of the first tooth coming through, mainly so they become familiar with the setting before any treatment is actually needed. Establishing that routine early tends to make ongoing checkups far less stressful for both child and parent.

Payment and insurance arrangements vary by practice and by treatment, so it is worth asking directly what is covered and what options exist for anything that is not, rather than assuming either way. Getting that clarified before treatment starts avoids surprises once it is underway.

Beyond any single treatment, most dental visits start with an examination — checking for decay, reviewing the gums, and looking at existing fillings or crowns — often alongside X-rays where there is a reason to look between or beneath teeth. That groundwork is what a dentist uses to explain any findings and set out next steps before you leave.

Routine attendance, roughly every six months for most people, is what actually keeps small problems small. A lot of decay and gum disease develops without any pain in its early stages, which is why regular checkups matter even when nothing seems to be wrong, rather than only booking an appointment once something hurts.

Echoing a lot of the great reviews after having had my exam and consultation for my treatment plan and can happily say every interaction was nothing short of pleasant and courteous! Had xrays, digital 3d modeling, and photoimaging all done for the assessment (all the assistants were so nice and polite) before Dr. Markham personally examined my teeth and jaw health. You can instantly tell Dr. Markham has first-class communication, and he made sure to put me as the patient at the center of my treatment (unlike a lot of very condescending and arrogant orthodontists I've been to in the past). He very quickly earned my trust and without a doubt is truly exceptional. Yvette is amazing as a treatment coordinator and really made the process as smooth as can be, providing a lot of insights I wouldn't have had any idea about. Walked out of there feeling really confident about the journey I'm starting with Dr. Markham and the team. Would highly recommend! P.S. The office is literally the nicest and most aesthetic one I've ever been to, and it helped provide a relaxing and comfortable environment. They keep up with seasonal decorations and it really is a nice touch both seeing them and knowing they are thinking about the details of the client experience.

I had my imaging and consult yesterday. You are able to self check-in which is very straight forward and easy to navigate the screen. From the assistant to the treatment coordinator to Dr. Markham, it was a very pleasant experience. I’m looking forward to beginning my treatment soon.

Dr. Markham and his team are amazing! I had a great experience throughout my entire braces journey. The environment is very nice and clean, and the staff are so sweet and professional. Dr. Markham is really kind and friendly. He took his time to explain every step and also addressed every concern I had. I got my braces taken off today and walked out with a brand-new smile. Thank you for putting your magic hands on me, Dr. Markham!”naagode”! And special thanks to Brenda, Cynthia, Karolina, and America ❤️

Dr. Markham and his team are truly the best! They’re professional, kind, and genuinely caring people who make every visit a great experience. Dr. Markham always takes the time to explain what he’s doing and why, so we never leave with unanswered questions. We’ve been coming here for years with all three of our kids, and thanks to his skill and attention to detail, their teeth look perfect! We couldn’t ask for a better orthodontist or staff — they’re simply amazing.
