Board Certified
A board certified orthodontist is an orthodontist who has voluntarily gone through hundreds of additional hours of preparation to demonstrate their judgment, skills and knowledge required for providing the highest level of patient care. They have achieved board certification through the American Board of Orthodontics, the only orthodontic specialty board recognized by the American Dental Association and in affiliation with the American Association of Orthodontists.
An orthodontist is a dentist who has not only completed a graduate program in dentistry to receive their DDS or DMD (Doctor of Dental Surgery or Doctor of Dental Medicine), but has also gone through a competitive residency at a CODA-accredited orthodontic program for an additional two to three years to be trained specifically in orthodontics and dentofacial orthopedics.
Achieving board certification is the last step in a long and intensive educational experience to ultimately provide excellent patient care.
As a Board Certified Orthodontist, an achievement only one in three Orthodontists obtain, Dr. Bita provides the highest level of care with her continued commitment to excellence.
Continuing Education in Clear Aligner Therapy
Orthodontics does not stand still, and neither does Dr. Bita. The sessions she attends at the Invisalign Ortho Summit cover the parts of clear aligner treatment that patients never see: attachment design and placement, how tooth movement is sequenced and staged, when a case calls for refinement, and which bite corrections aligners handle well versus which are better treated another way. That clinical depth is what her 2026 Top Doctor recognition reflects.
That matters for one reason. Clear aligners are a tool, and results depend on the orthodontist planning each movement and reading the case as it progresses. When you begin Invisalign at Dr. Bita Orthodontic Group, a board-certified orthodontist designs your plan, tracks every stage, and adjusts it when your teeth respond differently than predicted.
