About Us
At Gamblin Orthodontics, we look forward to working together with you to create the new, healthy, and beautiful smile you have always wanted. You will never be just another patient to us. We enjoy the personal relationships we form with all of our patients. The whole team looks forward to each patient’s visit recognizing it as a chance to catch-up on what’s been happening with them and their family.
Dr. Jeff Gamblin and our team always put patients’ needs at the forefront. When you come in for a complimentary consultation, we will sit down and talk with you about your goals. Based on that conversation, and the results of the initial assessment, we will develop a treatment plan that will represent a path to your new smile. We will then go over the proposed plan with you, explaining the steps and the treatment options, ensuring that you have all of the information you need to make an educated decision about your care. It is, after all, your smile and you know what you would like to see at the completion of your orthodontic treatment. We want to help you achieve your smile goals.
Our orthodontic offices are warm and welcoming. When you enter, you will be greeted by name and invited to make yourself comfortable in our waiting area. You will not be waiting for long though, because we do not over schedule patients. While we are efficient, you will never feel like you have been rushed through your appointment. Instead, we will always take the time to talk with you about the progress you have made and answer any questions or concerns that may have arisen since your last visit. If you are a parent of one of our patients, we will update you on what’s happening and make sure that you are comfortable with the progress and path of the treatment that you have chosen.
Want to know more about our orthodontic services and how we will be able to help you achieve the healthy smile of your dreams? Please call and schedule a complimentary consultation for yourself or your child at our Ridgeland or Hazlehurst, MS office.
Everyone here at Gamblin Orthodontics is passionate about providing excellent, effective, pain free, orthodontic care to our patients. We want to create a smile for you that will have you and your family grinning with joy.

Meet Dr. Jeff Gamblin
"I love what I do because orthodontics makes a noticeable difference that can dramatically influence the way patients feel about themselves and their smiles. Working with kids of all ages and motivated adults introduces me to a great variety of patients. Before treatment, many patients are embarrassed about the appearance of their teeth, but afterwards they can't stop looking at them." - Dr. Jeff Gamblin
Passionate about his work, and equally as passionate about his patients, Dr. Jeff Gamblin is a gentle, compassionate orthodontist. He enjoys the process of getting to know each patient as an individual. The relationships that naturally develop between his patients, their families, and himself are meaningful and satisfying. Dr. Gamblin is excited when he meets a new patient. He knows that not only will he work with them towards creating a more beautiful, healthy smile, but that he will also be afforded the opportunity to learn more about their lives, work, and dreams which always teaches him more about himself.
Through practicing orthodontics Dr. Gamblin is able to make real, positive, and lasting changes in the lives of his patients. The results of his work are visible in the patient’s smile, oral health improvements, and increased self-esteem as they reach the end of treatment. The day that a patient’s braces are removed, and their new smile is revealed, Dr. Gamblin celebrates with them. He knows he has had a unique opportunity to make a difference.
