Having Fears of Orthodontic Work?


I understand that visiting the dentist or orthodontist may not be what most people would choose to do. In our office, our ortho team will guide you through each step of treatment so that you will know exactly what to expect.

We provide a nice relaxing atmosphere for our patients: From a warm waiting room with flat screen TV's and a game room for the kids, to a treatment area that is full of the latest advancements in orthodontic technology making treatment as comfortable as possible.

After visiting our office, you will leave with a warm feeling that will make visiting the orthodontist seem fun!

Field and Wilson Orthodontics is now Wilson Orthodontics

Office News!

First of all, I would like to thank you for the support of our office you have provided over the past two years. You have all been very generous in welcoming me back into the community where I grew up. It truly is very exciting to be back in my hometown practicing what I love, orthodontics.

As you know, with any practice transition, the exiting of the senior doctor eventually takes place. I feel extremely fortunate to have been specifically chosen by Dr. Field as his successor. Our transition has been a very smooth experience, and I am excited to announce that “Field and Wilson Orthodontics” is now just “Wilson Orthodontics.” We still have the friendly, professional staff that Dr. Field had, and we will remain in the same location in Gainesville where Dr. Field’s office has been for over 30 years.

Why a Healthy Smile keeps YOU Healthy

A healthy smile will give you a healthy life! Brushing 2 times a day for two minutes each time as well as flossing once daily are the most important things you can do to keep a healthy smile.

Orthodontics will give your teeth the proper alignment which will make it easier to clean yourKeeping your smile healthy keeps your healthy says orthodontist Dr. Ron Wilson of teeth on a daily basis.

"Having straight teeth is kind of like building a foundation for a house. You wouldn't build a nice house without a good, solid foundation."

The foundation that you need in order to keep a healthy smile starts with orthodontics. By having braces, it will make sure that your teeth are secured by healthy bone surrounded by healthy gums. Then, the everyday cleaning of your teeth will be a breeze!

Tooth brush of the future?


Stumbling upon this toothbrush or rather tooth sponge of the future that Brazilian designer created a tooth sponge... That's right this tooth sponge is supposed to hold water, massage your gums, and polish your teeth!

Just think an electric tooth sponge that is comfortable for all ages, might even be fun!

So I am interested to see if this fancy new device makes it to our markets.

Our Community

Gainesville, Ga is a great place to raise a family. I feel lucky to be practicing in the same hometown where I grew up. The Hoschton/Braselton area is a new and upcoming area where our newest office is located. With football season on the horizon and the smell of fall in the air, I'm excited to attend some of our local high school football games. Many of our patients are football players and cheerleaders for the various schools in the community and I look forward to supporting them this fall. We are currently remodeling our Gainesville office to have a University of Georgia game room. Since we are only 45 minutes away from Athens, there are many Georgia football fans. We hope this new addition will give our patients siblings something to do and look forward to while they wait.



One of the things that I do to give back to our profession is volunteer for "Good News at Noon".

(Prepares and serves lunch the first Wednesday of each month for 50-100 disadvantaged people... read more) This is basically a local place in Gainesville where doctors, dentists and pharmacists volunteer their time to the people in the community to provide services to them at no charge. The emotional reward is worth more than anything else that I could imagine doing for a fee. Since many of the dentists are closed on Fridays, this is usually the day that we give back our time.

One of the favorite places that I like to eat in Gainesville is Poor Richards. This is a local restaurant that has been around for many years and continues to be one of the favorite places to eat in Gainesville. My wife and I go there at least once a week.

Wilson Orthodontics: Tracey Taylor

Wilson Orthodontics would like to congratulate Trey Taylor for being nominated as our “employee of the quarter”. Trey is our patient communication coordinator, and she also works as a chair-side orthodontic assistant. She has worked in our practice since 1998 and has over 26 years of orthodontic experience. She is from Dahlonega, Georgia, and has lived in Gainesville since 1998. She is married to Joey and has two sons, Zach and Chase, and a daughter, Ansley. She is very active in the local school system.

  • Her favorite thing about the practice of orthodontics: Seeing great smiles and watching children, teens, and adults who would not smile in the beginning, just smile and light up after treatment.
  • Her favorite thing about working with Dr. Wilson: He truly cares about his patients and is always interested in what they do.
  • Her favorite things about your job: Working with families to help bring great smiles to them and their children.

Again, congratulations to Trey on all her hard work and dedication to our patients!

What I love about my job!

Practicing orthodontics has been a blessing that I truly feel honored to do on a daily basis. Not only are we able to create beautiful smiles, but we have the opportunity to build self-confidence in our patients. It is absolutely amazing to see someone who is shy and not very outspoken before treatment to become someone who is very outgoing and social in many situations after treatment. It is almost as if we are releasing their "inner beauty" if you will. You know, people are very self-conscious about their smiles...especially when they have alignment issues, missing teeth, "gapped" teeth, etc. In todays society when self-image is ever so important, giving our patients a beautiful and perfect smile gives them reason to smile. Here at Wilson Orthodontics, we are giving our patients just one more tool to take their dreams and aspirations to the next level.
Ron D. Wilson, D.M.D., P.C.
