Our Orthodontist Dr. Trent in Madison has been Certified by The American Board of Orthodontics & now has become an orthodontic specialist who is eligible to become board certified through the voluntary examination process of The American Board of Orthodontics (ABO).
- Madison, WI (1888PressRelease) January 04, 2014 - Dr. Trent Cox, orthodontist with First Choice Dental, a Madison orthodontist and general dentist group practice, recently obtained his American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) certification. 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.
For a patient searching for a quality Madison orthodontist, ABO board certification is a mark of distinction and commitment. Patients who choose an ABO-certified orthodontist can rest assured that they're working with a top orthodontist in Madison, since fewer than 20% of orthodontists earn this certification. There are only four ABO board-certified orthodontists in the Madison area.
The certification process involves a thorough written examination covering all areas of information on which an orthodontist should be knowledgeable. Successful passage allows the orthodontist to present treated cases which are evaluated by expert examiners of the Board during a clinical examination. Certification is awarded for a time-limited period and the orthodontist must re-examine on a periodic basis to retain the board-certified status.Through this accomplishment, an orthodontist has earned the title of Diplomate of the ABO.
This effort by Dr. Trent Cox is well beyond what is required to practice orthodontics. It is a testament to his commitment to providing superior orthodontic care for patients throughout greater Madison.
