ABO Certification
As a Diplomate of the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO), I’ve completed an extensive certification process that includes both written and clinical examinations. This credential shows that my knowledge and clinical abilities have been carefully reviewed by an independent orthodontic board. To uphold this credential, I undergo recertification every 10 years.
When you choose a board-certified orthodontist, you’re choosing someone who has gone above and beyond the standard requirements—someone dedicated to ongoing learning, elevated expertise, and the pursuit of exceptional results.
