The Story of the Mills River Orthodontic Office

Before becoming Caroline Albea Orthodontics, the office was someone's home up on the hill, overlooking the old runway.

To make room for a new house in its old place, workers slid the soon-to-be office carefully down the hill where it sits now.

How a House Became Our Home Office

Once Dr. Caroline Albea saw the former home and the beautiful view it had, she knew it was the perfect place to start her practice.

Since her husband John works in construction, together they took on the family project of designing the layout of the office to keep the feeling of the comfort of home.

A History of Smiles

It turns out that the house had its own orthodontic history.

While tearing down the laundry room, they found a note written by a mother to the school to excuse her son for an orthodontic appointment! Some things are just meant to be.
