    Went here for a second opinion about having 4 pre-molars pulled for further dental treatment. I was terrified it would flatten my face and cause away issues. The entire staff was amazing, and I walked away confident about NOT getting my teeth pulled and what I can do to help fix my bite without affecting my breathing. 10/10 would recommend. Beautiful office as well. Danielle Fienhage April 25, 2026

    Switching offices in the middle of treatment sounded stressful but this orthodontist in Austin made the transition incredibly easy. They quickly coordinated my records with the previous office, handled the handoff smoothly, and got everything back on track. They corrected my bite issues and still managed to finish on schedule. Overall, it was a seamless mid-treatment transfer and a great experience. Callum Leonard April 24, 2026

    I have Delta Dental and was worried about the insurance process being complicated. Gabby took care of the whole thing and told me upfront what my out-of-pocket would be. No surprises on the bill.

    I searched for an orthodontist in Austin for a while before landing here. Dr. Viecilli looked at my teeth and gave me an honest read on what needed fixing and what didn’t.

    Dr V and the staff are wonderful! Very friendly and willing to answer all my questions. When I have questions Dr V will take the time to explain and help me to understand the process. They listen to all my concerns and make sure I understand why they are doing everything they are doing. I’m almost done with my treatment and, so far, am very happy with the work being done.

    I visited multiple orthodontists in Austin before deciding on my treatment, and I highly recommend Dr.Rodrigo Viecilli, he was the one who made the process feel clear and comfortable. He took the time to explain the entire treatment plan in detail – what the current focus would be, what would come later, and why each step was necessary. That clarity made a big difference for me. I never felt rushed or pressured, and all my questions were answered patiently. Another big plus was affordability – compared to other consultations I had, his pricing felt fair and practical without compromising on the quality of care. If you’re looking for an orthodontist who explains things well, keeps the treatment realistic, and makes informed decisions easy, you should definitely consult with Dr Rodrigo Viecilli.

    My dentist recommended seeing an orthodontist in Austin for my overbite before it got worse. Limestone Hills near Cedar Park was my first stop—and ended up being the only one I needed. They use a special wire system that significantly shortens treatment time. Eight months later, my bite feels completely different, and I can finally chew properly again. Estrella Dejesus September 1, 2025
  • ★★★★★
    My daughter’s friend got amazing results here, so we booked a consultation. Turns out this orthodontist in Austin specializes in complex cases like my daughter’s crowded teeth. Dr. Viecilli showed us digital projections of how her smile would change over time – pretty cool technology. Nine months in and she’s already getting compliments at school. The payment plan made it doable for our family budget. Melvin Howard August 5, 2025
  • ★★★★★
    Limestone Hills kept coming up in my search for the best orthodontist, and I’m glad I chose them. Their approach to bite correction solved issues I didn’t even realize I had. My sleep improved, jaw tension is gone, and of course my smile looks so much better. It’s truly comprehensive care that goes beyond just cosmetics. Kendrick Dillon October 3, 2025

Why Doctor-Owned Matters

Not all orthodontic offices are the same. Here is what makes a difference.

Doctor-Owned Practice

The doctor answers your questions directly
Treatment decisions made by the doctor, not a corporate protocol
Fewer patients, more attention per visit
Pricing set by the doctor, not a corporate office
No quotas, no upselling, no pressure
Doctor answers your questions directly

Corporate Chain (DSO)

The treatment coordinator presents your plan
Rotating doctors, different face each visit
Higher patient volume, less time per patient
Pricing determined by corporate headquarters
Production targets may influence recommendations
Questions go through the front desk staff

Why Choose Limestone Hills

Limestone Hills offers a combination of credentials and care choices that families notice on the first visit. Dr. Viecilli is a Diplomate of the American Board of Orthodontics with a PhD in Orthodontic Biomechanics, and he personally treats every patient at every appointment. The same doctor who designs the case finishes it. Consultations include a free 3D CBCT scan and exact pricing before any commitment, and unlike many practices, the practice does not run production quotas, treatment coordinators, or rotating associate schedules. Families bring their kids back for siblings’ braces; adults refer their colleagues. That is the test the practice is built to pass.

Limestone Hills Orthodontics is privately owned by Dr. Rodrigo Viecilli. It has not been sold to a corporate chain and never will be.

Does Limestone Hills accept my dental insurance?

Limestone Hills accepts all major PPO dental insurance plans including Delta Dental, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, Guardian, MetLife, Cigna, Humana, and United Healthcare. Claims are filed on the patient’s behalf. Average out-of-pocket cost with insurance is approximately $3,000. Full details are in the insurance guide .

What makes Dr. Viecilli different from other orthodontists in Austin?

Every orthodontist in Austin can straighten teeth. The questions parents should ask are these. Who designed the wire that will be in your child’s mouth? How many of the decisions are made by a board-certified orthodontist with the same hands each visit? Is the technology actually different or just marketed differently? At Limestone Hills Orthodontics, the wire your child wears was co-invented by Dr. Viecilli. Every visit is with him. There is no rotating associate, no technician making clinical calls. The CBCT airway scan at the first consultation is free. If a practice charges for a consultation or hands the clinical exam to a treatment coordinator, the parent is buying a logo, not a doctor.

Full credentials →

Do you offer Saturday and evening appointments?

Saturday patient care is limited. 9am-3pm, by appointment only, one Saturday a month (usually the first Saturday). Weekday patient care runs Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday 9am-5pm. Schedule online or call (512) 720-6399 .

Can I transfer my orthodontic treatment to Limestone Hills?

Yes. Patients bring records from the previous orthodontist and Limestone Hills provides a transfer evaluation. Dr. Viecilli assesses current treatment progress, takes a complimentary 3D CT scan, and recommends the best path forward.

Book a transfer consultation →

A $150 fee applies for second opinions and transfer cases already in active treatment. The new-patient consultation remains free.

At what age should my child first see an orthodontist?

The American Association of Orthodontists (AAO) recommends a first orthodontic evaluation by age 7. At that age Dr. Viecilli can identify bite problems, airway issues, and eruption patterns early.
Many children do not need treatment at age 7. Limestone Hills offers a complimentary growth-observation program to monitor development until the right moment.
