Your Trusted Orthodontist Near Mapleville, RI
Mapleville started out as Cooper’s Mills, a Burrillville settlement with a Quaker meeting house built in 1791 and, later, the brick mill of the Coronet Worsted Company. Today it is a quiet village of homes, churches, and the Oakland-Mapleville fire station, and it is one of the closest communities to our Chepachet office.
From Mapleville it is about three miles, roughly 6 minutes south on Victory Highway, to Romani Orthodontics on Putnam Pike. There, Dr. Kirsten Romani, a board-certified orthodontist who has practiced in Chepachet for more than 20 years, and Dr. Jessica Collins treat patients of every age. New patients begin with a free consultation.

Plenty of Mapleville patients find us because their family dentist noticed crowding or a crossbite. A specialist visit tells you what to do with that information. Sometimes the right move is early treatment, sometimes it is to watch growth for a year or two, and sometimes no treatment is needed. We explain which and why.

Frequently Asked Questions
How far is Romani Orthodontics from Mapleville, RI?
Our Chepachet office at 1109 Putnam Pike is about 3.2 miles from Mapleville, roughly 6 minutes by Victory Highway (Route 102). Our East Providence office is about 35 minutes away.
At what age should my child see an orthodontist?
The American Association of Orthodontists recommends a first orthodontic check by about age 7. Most kids only need monitoring at that age, and our short drive makes follow-up visits easy.
Can adults have orthodontic treatment?
Yes. We treat patients from 7 to 77, and many parents decide to start treatment alongside their child. Clear aligners and ceramic braces give adults discreet ways to straighten their teeth, and healthy teeth can be moved at any age.
How much will treatment cost?
Your fee depends on your case. Dr. Romani reviews the cost with you at your free consultation, along with insurance help and payment plan options.
How often are appointments?
During active treatment, braces patients usually come in every 8 to 10 weeks for an adjustment that lasts 20 to 40 minutes. From Mapleville each visit is a quick trip down Victory Highway.
What do I do if a wire is poking?
Call the office. A small piece of orthodontic wax usually takes care of discomfort until we can see you, and our team can talk you through it over the phone. If the problem needs a visit, we will schedule a repair.
