After struggling with a 5 year journey in orthodontics as a child, Dr. Bernstein decided to become an orthodontist to help make orthodontic treatment a more rewarding and engaging adventure for patients.
At Bernstein Orthodontics, it is our mission to provide our patients with big, wide smiles in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere. Our orthodontic offices in Santa Rosa, Windsor and Petaluma utilize the most comfortable, efficient and advanced treatment options available to get our patients smiling faster than ever before! Our friendly, professional staff is with you every step of the way from your first visit to the exciting day you get your braces off.
We believe nothing should stand in the way of achieving a beautiful, confident smile, especially when it comes down to finances. Our staff will work with you to find a payment option that fits best with your lifestyle and financial situation.
We understand that choosing an orthodontist is a big decision. Thats why we want to share with you our treatment and team philosophies. We hope that by sharing our vision, mission and how and why we do the things we do, you will better understand the Bernstein Orthodontics brand and what makes us different.
Dr. Bernstein was born and raised in South Africa and attended the prestigious Wits Dental School finishing top of his class. He then completed his orthodontic specialty residency at the State University of New York at Buffalo. Following his residency, he accepted a fellowship position at the University where he became a clinical assistant professor in the orthodontic department.
He yearned for a climate similar to South Africa so he decided to relocate to Southern California, where he met his wife Debbie, also a dental specialist. He opened his first orthodontic practice shortly after.
Dr. Bernstein is committed to excellence in orthodontics. He has lectured nationally on self-ligation and early interceptive treatment to other orthodontists and dentists. He strives to provide the latest and greatest to all of his patients in a friendly, upbeat atmosphere.
In his spare time, Dr. Bernstein enjoys racing go-karts, working out, snowboarding in winter and devoting himself to his wife and two daughters by going to birthday parties, ballet recitals, gymnastics classes and more.
