Hall Orthodontics is a boutique practice on Harding Pike in Belle Meade led by Dr. Miriam Hall, who earned her dental degree and completed her orthodontic residency at the University of Pennsylvania and has been in private practice since 2010. She was named to the peer-nominated topDentists list for orthodontics in 2025 and 2026, and her research on rapid palatal expansion was published in the American Journal of Orthodontics. Dr. Katie McCormack, also an orthodontist, practices alongside her. The office offers metal and ceramic braces, Invisalign and Invisalign Teen, iTero digital scans instead of impressions, and a Kids Club that monitors growth for children 7 and up at no charge.
