Orthodontics is more than just straightening teeth. Orthodontists understand the complexity of growth development and facial form. There’s a reason orthodontists go to additional years of highly competitive orthodontic school – to learn and perfect their ability in the specialty.
A board certified orthodontist is committed to the highest level of patient care including a comprehensive treatment approach to ensure quality work. Board certified orthodontists must re-new their certification every 10 years to demonstrate their continuous commitment to excellence.
Choosing a board-certified orthodontist gives you the confidence that the orthodontic professional has not only demonstrated high clinical knowledge, up-to-date on the current orthodontic literature and modern understanding, but has a record of proven case results as judged by their top rated peers. On average, most board-certified orthodontists have graduated in the top 15% of their class from one of the top 10 orthodontic programs in the US.
Here are just a few reasons why you would consider a board-certified orthodontist over other orthodontic professionals according to the ABO are:
•They can recommend early or preventative treatment options that could improve your child’s overall future health. Some health issues include your child’s bite and improving the child’s airway as they grow.
•They have put an additional 2-3 years of study into jaw and facial/cranial dynamics. They are not only trained in straightening teeth, they are also trained to correct problems with your bite.
•Choosing board-certified orthodontist ensures you have a professional who fully understands these dynamics and can recommend the best treatment.
