WHAT IT MEANS TO BE BOARD-CERTIFIED
It takes dedication to make it to the top.
An orthodontist is a specialist who has completed an advanced education program following dental school to learn the special skills required to manage tooth movement and guide facial development. Board Certified Orthodontists have committed themselves to you and your orthodontic treatment to provide the highest level of care. In addition to dental school and an accredited orthodontic program, they have successfully completed a voluntary, rigorous examination process through The American Board of Orthodontics, the only orthodontic specialty recognized by the American Dental Association and in affiliation with the American Association of Orthodontists.
WHY CHOOSE A BOARD-CERTIFIED ORTHODONTIST
Orthodontics is more than just straightening teeth.
Orthodontists understand the complexity of growth development and facial form. Treatment plans include issues related to the jaw and bite, not just the movement of teeth. There’s a reason orthodontists pursue 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.
BECAUSE YOUR SMILE MATTERS
Trust your smile to a Board Certified Orthodontist.
If you assumed all orthodontists are board certified, you're not alone. But the truth is less than 40% of orthodontists actually take this voluntary step to achieve certification. Dr. Mihalik took the extra step to give the best orthodontic care for his patients! He is the only one in Coprus who has taken all these steps.
