Our Story

The Practice
He Wished Existed

Dr. Brandon Foltz knows what it feels like to be a kid with a smile you're not proud of. When his adult teeth came in during middle school, his self-esteem took a hit — until an orthodontist changed everything. That experience didn't just improve his smile. It changed his life's direction.

In 2017, Dr. Foltz founded Avenue South Orthodontics with a single purpose: to give Nashville families an orthodontic experience that's genuinely different. He designed the practice from the ground up — the office, the atmosphere, the coffee bar, the arcade games, the patient-first philosophy — because he believed the way orthodontic care is delivered matters just as much as the results.

Today, the ASO team treats children, teens, and adults across Nashville, combining clinical expertise with real human care. Every patient who walks through the door is more than a case file — they're a smile story in the making.

Solutions For Your Smile

Treatment Options
Tailored to You

From traditional braces to clear aligners, Dr. Foltz offers comprehensive orthodontic solutions for every age, lifestyle, and goal. Every treatment plan is built around you.

Traditional Metal Braces

The gold standard in orthodontic treatment — reliable, effective, and available for children, teens, and adults. Most cases complete in 18–24 months.

Clear Braces

All the effectiveness of metal braces with a more discreet look. A popular choice for teens and adults who want results without the metal mouth.

Invisalign

Clear, removable aligners that straighten your smile without anyone noticing. For mild to moderate cases, treatment can be completed in as little as 12 months.

Popular Choice

Phase 1 Early Treatment

Early orthodontic intervention for children can guide jaw development and prevent more complex issues later. Dr. Foltz determines the right timing for your child.

Phase 2 Comprehensive Treatment

Full orthodontic treatment following early intervention — designed to achieve the complete, lasting smile result your child deserves.

Retainers

Protect your investment after treatment is complete. Custom retainers, worn nightly, keep your teeth in their ideal position for the long haul.

Common Questions

Everything You Want to Know

Early evaluation allows Dr. Foltz to spot potential issues before they become bigger problems. Many children benefit from an initial assessment even before all their permanent teeth have come in, as early guidance can simplify future treatment.

Phase 1, or early intervention treatment, addresses bite and alignment issues while a child's jaw is still developing. It can reduce the complexity of Phase 2 treatment later and in some cases shorten overall treatment time.

It depends on the complexity of your case and the treatment type. Traditional braces typically run 18–24 months. Invisalign can address mild to moderate cases in as little as 12 months. Dr. Foltz will give you a realistic timeline during your consultation.

Braces use metal or clear brackets and wires bonded to your teeth — ideal for a wide range of cases. Invisalign uses removable clear aligners, making them more discreet and convenient, especially for responsible teens and adults. Dr. Foltz will help you choose the best fit.

Yes — we work with most dental insurance providers. Once Dr. Foltz creates your treatment plan, our team will verify your benefits so you know exactly what to expect out of pocket.

Absolutely. Our in-house financing is designed to make treatment accessible for families. We require a down payment and offer flexible monthly payment dates on the 1st or 15th. Best of all, it has no impact on your credit score.

Some mild soreness after adjustments is normal, but our team works to keep you comfortable throughout your treatment. Most patients adjust quickly and find the process far more manageable than they expected.

Not at all. A misaligned bite can cause excessive tooth wear, jaw pain, TMJ issues, and even cavities — since crooked teeth are harder to clean. Straightening your smile is an investment in your long-term oral health, not just your appearance.
