Why Choose a Board-Certified Orthodontist?

What Is A Board-Certified Orthodontist?

As a board-certified orthodontist, Dr. Snider has undergone hundreds of hours of additional study and completed rigorous examinations to achieve her certification from the American Board of Orthodontics. Board-certifications must also be renewed every ten years, ensuring that members keep up with the latest advancements in orthodontia. She is a true specialist, and can offer a level of patient care that is second-to-none.

Why Choose 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. 

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.

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 are constantly self-evaluating and keeping up with the latest in orthodontic techniques and technology. 

Peace of Mind

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.
