Dr. Matthew McNutt


Dr. Matthew McNutt's path to orthodontics is a testament to the profound impact of listening to one's mother and the power of self-reflection. From a young age, moving frequently across the United States, Dr. McNutt learned adaptability and the value of community—a theme that would later define his professional ethos. His orthodontic calling was ignited by an essay, encouraged by his mother, which led him to spend a day with an orthodontist, transforming his future. This experience, coupled with his diverse background, from serving in the Army to working as a lab tech and clinical assistant, shaped his holistic approach to patient care. Today, Dr. McNutt is not just an orthodontist but a community pillar in Cary and Clayton, NC, dedicated to enhancing smiles and self-confidence. His practice, enriched by personal experience and a deep commitment to continuous learning, reflects a journey full of passion, dedication, and the joy of making a difference in people's lives.
