What You Get From a Board Certified Orthodontist

When you choose a board certified orthodontist, you’re choosing peace of mind. Know that your oral health is in the hands of a highly-trained expert, and that your smile will be beautiful and functional for the long run. 
1

Education

To prepare for board exams, orthodontists must undergo additional study on top of their orthodontic residency. This means they have a deeper understanding of facial anatomy and how it relates to the smile, so they can provide patients with exceptional care.
2

Commitment

Board certification is a voluntary achievement that only about 1 in 3 orthodontists complete. Certification must be renewed every 10 years, so board certified orthodontists constantly self-evaluate and keep up with the latest in orthodontic techniques and technology.

When you go to a board certified orthodontist, you’re choosing a highly-trained professional at the top of their field. They will work with you to create a custom treatment plan that addresses the look of your smile, the functionality of your bite, the alignment of your jaw, and much more.

Do orthodontists have to be board certified?

Board certification is a voluntary achievement. Out of the 19,000 members of the AAO (American Association of Orthodontics), about 58% are board-certified. The rising number of board-certified orthodontists is a testament to the ABO’s commitment to advancing the standard of care when it comes to orthodontics.

Am I too old for orthodontic treatment?

The good news is that you are never too old for orthodontic treatment or to get the smile you want. In fact, 1 in 4 orthodontic patients are adults, and that number is rising. Orthodontic treatment not only improves the look of your smile, but also helps promote better oral and overall health.
