do not go to this doctor for any kind of invisiline. the staff were rude and condesending. the dentist literally cut into my gums on purpose and caused permenent damage scraping off my invisiline anchors. i have bad sensitivity. i wish somebody warned me not to go! i was always extra nice and front desk lady was nice to me but thats it!

Dr Scramstad did my braces from the time I was 12 to 14 and retainer until 17, and as an adult now I can say that he does amazing work. I always get complemented on my teeth. Not only that, but I remember the experience there always being great. Not sure what orthodontist the other lady went to who complained on here but Donna was the sweetest lady ever. She sees tons of people everyday and still remembered me each month I came there. She always was there to make a joke with my mom and I as well. My teeth were pretty horrendous, but I’m glad my parents picked Align. They’re pivotal for patient care and outstanding morale.

Dr Scrmastad and his team are excellent and caring professionals. We saw several different dentists in town to decide the right fit for us and we couldnt be happier. he was the only doctor who took his time explaining different treatment options to us and IS THE ONLY one who did not make us feel like we were on a cash assembly line. my whole family has gone through this office and we couldn't recommend them enough, We are very happy with our treatments and smiles,

Some of our teens had braces through Dr. James Scramstad. But we've been so disappointed that we've taken our other kids to somewhere else. He made all kinds of mistakes that cost us extra trips to his office ... and a lot of discomfort for our kids. He doesn't really seem to care. It's just a MONEY MAKING business so he gets lot of days off and extended holidays. And don't get me started on Donna - the front desk receptionist. She's a major B**CH who acts like everyone is dumber than she is. Why she was ever hired to be the front desk person is beyond understanding!!! She's sooooo cranky. Save yourself time & money and start by seeing someone else.

Dr Scramstad and his staff were excellent. dr Scramstad takes the time to talk to you and listen to your needs. Unlike others who tried to push treatments onto my children. Their teeth have turned out beautifully and we have been extremely happy with the whole process. I would highly recommend him to anyone. Especially if you want a down to earth doctor to deal with.

Biography

Dr. James Scramstad’s father, Dr. Don Scramstad, started Align Ortho here in Kelowna back in 1981 and spent over 30 years straightening smiles in the Okanagan before he retired. James wanted to continue the family tradition. So, after graduating from OKM Secondary in Kelowna, he went on to become a General Practitioner Dentist offering Orthodontics only. After working together with his dad for over 17 years, James continues to offer comprehensive Orthodontic care for patients of all ages with a focus on advanced technology and exceptional customer service. His treatment philosophy centers on creating healthy smiles with harmonious facial relationships for the perfect balance of function and aesthetics. James is a family man through and through. He values the time he spends at home with his wife, Natasha, and their kids, Koa and Maléa. When they’re not at home, James and his family can usually be found exploring the Okanagan. They’re avid mountain bikers and also enjoy skiing, hiking, surfing, boating and more. You will often see a bicycle in the office since James rides to work as often as he can.
