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.
