What Sets Us Apart

At Orthodontics by Bradford, exceptional care starts with experience, advanced training, and a commitment to doing things the right way. Dr. Stephen Bradford and Dr. Colby Bradford go beyond standard orthodontic care to deliver results built on precision, teamwork, and long-term health.

What Does It Mean to Be a Board-Certified Orthodontist?

Not every orthodontist chooses to pursue board certification. While all orthodontists complete dental school and specialized orthodontic training, board certification through the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) is a voluntary achievement that reflects a higher level of dedication.

Board certification demonstrates a commitment to:

• Advanced clinical knowledge and judgment
• Evidence-based orthodontic treatment
• Ongoing education and professional accountability
• Delivering care that meets the highest specialty standards

Dr. Stephen Bradford and Dr. Colby Bradford believe this commitment directly benefits their patients.

Why Is ABO Recognition Important?

Dr. Stephen Bradford’s expertise has been nationally recognized. In 2002, he received the American Board of Orthodontics Award for Best Clinical Cases, an honor that reflects exceptional skill in diagnosis, treatment planning, and execution across complex orthodontic cases.

This recognition highlights:

• Excellence in clinical outcomes
• Attention to detail and precision
• A deep understanding of orthodontic biomechanics
• A focus on long-term, stable results
