Tradition of Trust. A Commitment to Innovation.
Our Story
LaHaye Orthodontics has been creating smiles in the Bayou Region since 1973.
Founded by Dr. Philip W. LaHaye, the practice was built on personal relationships, quality orthodontic care, and treating patients like family. Dr. Mark LaHaye joined his father in 2004 and continues that tradition today while incorporating modern orthodontic technology and treatment options.
Over the years, we've had the privilege of treating multiple generations of families throughout Thibodaux, Houma, Lafourche Parish, Terrebonne Parish, and the surrounding communities. Some of our patients today are the children and grandchildren of patients we've treated before them.
We're proud of that history—but we're equally committed to continuing to improve.
Our Approach to Orthodontic Care
Every patient is different. Your treatment should be too.
Dr. LaHaye develops an individualized treatment plan based on your smile, bite, goals, and stage of development. Whether treatment involves traditional braces, clear aligners, or simply monitoring a growing child's development, our goal is to recommend the right treatment at the right time.
We combine decades of orthodontic experience with modern technology, including digital scanning, 3D printing, advanced treatment planning, and customized orthodontic appliances.
Technology matters when it helps us provide better care—not simply because it's new.
What Matters to Us
Patients Come First
We want every patient and parent to understand their treatment, feel comfortable asking questions, and know why we're recommending a particular approach.
Personalized Orthodontic Care
There is no one-size-fits-all treatment plan. We tailor treatment to the individual patient.
Quality and Attention to Detail
From diagnosis and treatment planning through your final result and retention, details matter.
A Team That Knows You
We're proud to provide orthodontic care in a friendly, welcoming environment where our team gets to know our patients and their families.
A Practice That Keeps Improving
LaHaye Orthodontics has been here for generations, but we aren't practicing orthodontics the way it was practiced generations ago. We continue to invest in technology, education, and better ways to care for our patients.
Part of the Community
We're not simply located in Thibodaux and Houma. This is our home.
LaHaye Orthodontics has supported local schools, organizations, charitable causes, community events, and families throughout the Bayou Region for decades.
