Dr. Jared Little

Dr Jared grew up in Michigan where he attended college and dental school at the University of Michigan. He then escaped the winter and moved to San Francisco, California for his orthodontic specialty training. His training focused on making perfect bites and beautiful smiles with braces and clear aligners for patients of all ages – Winning him a national Invisalign case competition (Class I university challenge) the year he finished residency!

Shortly after finishing residency, Dr Jared’s long-time mentors, Drs Matt and Megan Lineberger, called upon him to join the smile team in North Carolina. After creating smiles all over the Charlotte-Metro area, Dr Jared focused sights on Mint Hill – thus, Mint Hill Ortho was born!

Patient Testimonials

“I love the staff. Very relatable and gives you a great peace of mind. The results are even better!”

-Robin G., Patient

“What a great team! Very attentive, clean environment, professional and welcoming, plus had various options for care and payments. Highly recommended!”

-Nickie H., Patient

“I love how friendly, professional and patient the staff was. I’ve never had braces before and I wanted Gold Braces and this was the only place here in Charlotte to do them. The Dentist explained the process and checked in on me to make sure I was ok as he prepped my teeth for my brackets. I highly recommend them!”

-Ta-Keema M., Patient

“HIGHLY recommend Mint Hill Orthodontics- the staff is amazing. Dr James is personable, incredibly professional, and not at all stuffy like other orthodontists tend to be. I immediately bonded with Katie when making my appointment because we are both rescue dog mamas, seriously the best staff ever! Although I simply needed a new retainer I WISH I had to come back (I’ll be visiting, just because)!”
