Dr. Tabacchi has recently received the honor of being awarded her Board Certification. The excerpt below is directly from the ABO website and describes what it means to be able to claim this prestigious designation.
"A board certified orthodontist is a dentist who has completed an American Dental Association accredited graduate program in the specialty of orthodontics. A dentist who graduates from a specialty program becomes an orthodontic specialist who is eligible to become board certified through the voluntary examination process of The American Board of Orthodontics (ABO). Involvement in the certification process is a demonstration of the orthodontist's pursuit of continued proficiency and excellence."
Dr. Tabacchi has recently been awarded the prestigious designation of being a Board Certified Orthodontist. Approximately only 20% of orthodontists in the United States hold the designation.
Computerized Braces allow Dr. Tabacchi to precisely place each individual bracket on each tooth via 3D computer technology.
The Benefits are astonishing:
Less Treatment Time - Treatment Time can be cut by 25% or more.
Patient visits are less frequent and for a shorter amount of time.
At the first appointment, when the braces are placed on the teeth, the time is cut by 1/2. This means less time having to keep your mouth wide open while placing the braces.
Dr. Tabacchi utilizes 3D Computer Technlogy for the benefit of all of our Braces Patients.

By utilizing this technology, Dr. Tabacchi is able to precisely place brackets on each tooth.

All of our patients get to see their models BEFORE and AFTER 'Smile Goals.' It is extremely motivating for both our adults and our kids in treatment.
