About Us

Orthodontics is a team effort involving parents, patients, orthodontist, and staff. Orthodontic problems can be quite complex, and often involve the growth patterns and bone structure of the face as well as misaligned teeth. Orthodontists undergo 2 to 3 additional years of postdoctoral training in order to learn the specialized skills required to treat orthodontic complexities that may arise.

Our practice utilizes the most up-to-date, advanced techniques available today in determining the most effective treatment option for correcting each of our patients’ individual problems. For example, we use digital x-ray equipment in our office, which decreases x-ray exposure up to seventy percent. This also gives us the ability to review the x-rays immediately on the computer screen with patients and/or parents. Because we take x-rays routinely at our new patient exams, Dr. Bovenizer can more accurately diagnose any problems that may not be seen by just an oral exam and will be able to better determine the direction of treatment.
