Patient Reviews

I called this morning to see if we could come in for a consultation and they had a cancellation for same day. The lady I spoke with was professional and so helpful. We arrived at the Murrieta location which is beautiful and clean! Everyone is friendly and welcoming. I had conversations with several staff members and enjoyed it. Ryan was awesome and communicative. My daughter and I loved our experience and i will bring my son and refer anyone we know here. Thank you Rucker Ortho!!!

Place to amazing and friendly highly recommend

We are thrilled with our experience so far. My nine year old who has exceptional crowding, had her braces put on today with doctor Ryan Rucker. He has been extremely patient and answered all the questions I could come up with. Care coordinator Caitlyn helped us tremendously with a financial breakdown payment options. We took advantage of the pay in full discount and are pleased with the affordability and atmosphere of the office all around. Alexis was very caring in assisting with the preparation of the braces and took her time making sure my daughter was comfortable through the entire process.

Highly recommend Rucker Orthodontics.

Rucker Orthodontics has exceeded my expectations. When I visited the office for a second opinion, they said everything I needed to hear—before I even asked my questions.

My main priority wasn’t simply straight teeth; it was my daughter’s airway and breathing. The system they use to align her teeth has already improved her sleeping posture and breathing in just one month.

We also deeply appreciated the financial transparency throughout this process. Unexpected costs can be scary, but they alleviated those concerns and made everything very clear.

The office itself is beautiful and welcoming, with large windows that create a peaceful environment and helped ease any worries we had. The staff are attentive, helpful, and super friendly.

Overall, we’ve had such a positive experience at Rucker Orthodontics!

Took care of my daughter really well.

Amazing office, highly recommend for your kiddo’s braces.

Great experience with everyone. Very friendly and comfortable.

Rucker orthodontics is AMAZING! My daughter has autism and they handled her extremely well as she was scared and has sensory needs. I HIGHLY recommend Rucker Orthodontics!!

I can’t say enough great things about this orthodontic office. The facility is spotless—amazingly clean and welcoming from the moment you walk in. The staff is incredibly kind and professional, making both me and my son feel completely comfortable at every visit.

What really stood out to me is their use of the latest technology and equipment, which gave me confidence that my son is receiving the very best care available. Everything feels modern, efficient, and done with precision.

The teamwork between the doctor and the assistant is something I’ve never seen before—it’s like watching a well-coordinated dance routine. Their motions are so seamless and practiced that it’s clear they have perfected working together. It made the whole process smooth and reassuring, and my son felt completely at ease.

Truly an exceptional experience from start to finish.

Dr Rucker and his staff are so great at what they do! We are returning to Rucker to complete Phase 2 of my son’s braces. Brittany answered my questions prior to my son’s appointment and Kenna was so patient and gentle with him, she was very thorough in explaining what she was doing while he was in the chair. We look forward to working with the Rucker staff during the process of getting a more beautiful, brighter smile for my son!

Amazing job on my daughter’s first phase of braces. Night & day difference and quickly. We’re back for her phase 2 and she’s excited to have her perfect smile!

Great experience as always, especially with an anxious kid!

The office has a bright and modern vibe, filled with decor that really makes you feel at home. The friendly staff greets everyone with warm smiles and a genuine welcoming spirit. They don’t just do their jobs; they go the extra mile to make sure everyone who walks in leaves with a positive experience, making every visit feel special!

Everyone from the front office staff to the orthodontist themselves were so friendly and welcoming. They go over everything and to make sure you understand the treatment plan. They have flexible payment options if needed. Hands down the best experience we’ve had.

Dr Rucker is absolutely amazing! Their office staff (Rosie) is the best and super communicative. Made my son feel so much better about braces. Super friendly, quick, such a beautiful office! So glad to have my family come here.

Very welcoming office cant wait to see my children's smiles transform:)

Amazing experience for my daughter getting braces!! Answered all her questions.

Great staff made it easy and smooth

My whole experience was seamless from beginning to end in starting my treatment. Everybody was very professional and caring!

Easy, perfect, staff was great and the office is very aesthetic! Looking forward to coming here while on our braces journey. Also, the Murrieta office is very convenient for those that live closer to French Valley.

Great experience. Super patient with my daughter

They were able to fit my child in on the schedule and get braces put on. Staff is super friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable when it came to questions or concerns. The braces were reasonably priced. All in all, so glad my family was referred to Rucker.

Update: Just brought my second daughter to get her braces done as well. Absolutely love this place. They have been amazing and continue the tradition of patient care!

Awesome experience! We made our first appointment by phone last week and walked out with braces on my 9 year old son TODAY! The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful and their financing options made braces for my son possible and affordable! 10/10! Excellent!

So happy we came to Rucker! Everyone was so helpful especially Rosie she made my daughter feel so comfortable!

It was a very smooth process with scheduling and consultation. My daughter finally got her braces done. It was very quick and they are definitely excellent in what they do.My daughter is happy.
