Dr. Albert is Your Board-Certified Orthodontist in Simi Valley: What That Means
When it comes to choosing the right orthodontist for you or your family, credentials matter. At Soul Orthodontics in Simi Valley, Dr. Albert is not only known for his compassionate, personalized care — he is also a board-certified orthodontist.
That distinction sets him apart. While not every orthodontist pursues board certification, Dr. Albert went the extra mile to demonstrate his mastery, skill, and commitment to providing the highest standard of orthodontic care.
Why choose a board-certified orthodontist near you?
Orthodontic treatment is about more than straightening teeth. It’s about designing a healthy, functional, and beautiful smile that lasts a lifetime. When you choose a board-certified orthodontist near you, you’re choosing someone who has voluntarily completed rigorous testing and case reviews to prove their expertise.
At our premium orthodontic office in Simi Valley, Dr. Albert personally creates each patient’s treatment plan, whether you choose braces, Invisalign®, or orthodontics for your teen or child. Tools like Invisalign® are powerful, but it’s the orthodontist’s training and precision that ensure your results and quality of care.
What does board-certified mean for an orthodontist?
An ABO orthodontist is an orthodontist who is officially certified by the American Board of Orthodontics. (The American Board of Orthodontics is the only orthodontic specialty board recognized by the American Dental Association and the American Association of Orthodontists.)
Orthodontists don’t have to pursue board certification; it’s an additional and voluntary credential that not every orthodontist puts the time and energy into earning.
The ABO certification shows Dr. Albert’s commitment to perfecting his skills and techniques in order to provide the highest possible standard of care for you and your family.
How do orthodontists become board-certified?
For an orthodontist to earn his or her board certification with the ABO, here’s what they have to do:
1. Pass rigorous written and clinical exams.
The path to board certification requires passing an in-depth written examination that evaluates an orthodontist’s understanding of everything from biomechanics to advanced treatment planning. This isn’t just a test of knowledge; it’s a test of mastery.
Once the written exam is passed, orthodontists must present detailed case studies of their own patients. These cases are closely reviewed by a panel of expert orthodontists who evaluate the precision, outcomes, and overall quality of the treatment. Only orthodontists with the highest level of skill and attention to detail earn the board’s approval.
2. Commit to ongoing excellence - for life!
Earning the certification is just the beginning. To maintain their board-certified status, orthodontists must regularly demonstrate their commitment to advancing their skills through continuing education and case reviews. This ensures that board-certified orthodontists (like Dr. Albert) are always at the forefront of innovation and clinical excellence.
From here, the ABO requires that orthodontists renew their certification every 10 years to maintain an active certification. During the renewal process, orthodontists typically need to complete continuing education, submit additional case reviews for evaluation, and meet other requirements set by the ABO.
This means that board-certified orthodontists are dedicated and required to stay at the forefront of orthodontic advancements and continuously improve their craft — for life! Isn’t that the type of commitment you want for your doctor - or your child’s doctor?
