Our Story & Philosophy

Building beautiful smiles and lasting relationships with families across the Quad Cities for over a decade.

How It All Began

Orthodontic Group was founded with a simple yet powerful vision: to create beautiful, healthy smiles while building lasting relationships with families in our community. What started as a dream to bring advanced orthodontic care to the Quad Cities has grown into a thriving practice serving thousands of patients.

Dr. Maura Vroman joined our team with the belief that orthodontic treatment should be more than just straightening teeth—it should be a positive, comfortable experience that builds confidence and transforms lives. This philosophy continues to guide everything we do today.

When Dr. Lora Marine joined our team, we expanded our reach to better serve the growing needs of our community. Together, our doctors bring decades of experience and a shared commitment to excellence in orthodontic care.
