We know that choosing an orthodontist is a very personal decision. There are many orthodontic offices and treatment options available to you. Here are just a few details about our office that describe “What Sets Us Apart”:
Carrying On A Family Tradition
Two options are better than one. At Shehee and Callahan Family Orthodontics, both doctors contribute to the treatment planning process and are active in the overall treatment of every patient. Having two doctors in our practice gives our patients a clear advantage. Dr. Ed Shehee has over 30 years of experience, and his son-in-law, Dr. Chad Callahan has been trained in the most current concepts in orthodontics. Combining experience and new techniques and training is a winning combination for all of our patients.
Drs. Shehee and Callahan do not want to set up any barriers to exploring your orthodontic options. Our initial exam is free and includes photographs and diagnostic X-rays. We do this because we know your time is valuable! Our goal is for you to leave your first appointment with a full appreciation of your orthodontic treatment options including fees, payment plans, and insurance considerations.
Specialist in Orthodontics
While many dental professionals provide orthodontic care, Drs. Shehee and Callahan have both obtained specialty training and limit their practice to orthodontic care. They focus 100% of their energy on staying at the leading edge of orthodontic treatment.
Superior Customer Service
Because orthodontics is generally a process that can take from several months to several years, Drs. Shehee and Callahan realize that providing a high level of customer service is extremely important. Getting to know you and meeting your individual orthodontic needs are our foremost concerns.
Online Account Management
Our patients can log into their account through our web site to check their appointment times and review their account information. They even have the option to receive e-mail appointment reminders or text messages. This on-line service is available 24/7, and is a convenient way for our patients to stay connected to our office at all times.
Family Program
After we have treated the first member of your family, any additional immediate family member that is treated will receive a courtesy reduction of their fee. This includes Moms, Dads and siblings!
Fun Atmosphere
Shehee and Callahan Family Orthodontics always provides a fun and friendly atmosphere. We have a video game room for younger (and older) patients. We have a slushy machine for patients to enjoy after their appointment. We even have contests throughout the year that give our patients many opportunities to win great prizes like gift certificates, movie passes, IPods and more.
At Shehee and Callahan Family Orthodontics, we believe in giving back 
to the community. Since 2007, Drs. Shehee and Callahan have been coordinating Give Kids a Smile for the Escambia-Santa Rosa Dental Society, which is a program that helps needy children get the dental care they so desperately need. This program serves over 300 local children each year. Local Dentists, Hygienists and Assistants donate their time and expertise at this annual event held at Pensacola State College Warrington Campus. In addition to coordinating Give Kids A Smile, Drs. Shehee and Callahan have recently become partners of Smiles Change Lives, a national nonprofit organization that promotes
and provides access to life-changing, essential orthodontic treatment
for children from low-income families.
