I truly feel that being an orthodontist is the best job in the world. I find enjoyment in creating a smile for patients that will allow them to smile with confidence and love their new smile. The journey to a beautiful smile allows me to form a relationship in whichI get to know my patients deeply. Being an orthodontist also gives me the opportunity to make a difference in our community. Its a great feeling when I seepatientsoutside of the office and they are happily smiling.

I grew up as a child of a military parent, which meant we lived in several different states. In total, I went to 11 schools betweengrades K-12. My wife is a native of Charlotte, and after she completed her pediatric dental residency, we decided to return to the Charlotte area in 2010 to start our family and for me to build the type of practice I dreamed of creating: a place for patients to feel comfortable and excited, and a practice that was a pillar to lift the community.

Stephanie and I have two children, Alaina and Roman, and an 18-year-old four-legged furry son named Bernie. We are very fortunate that our parents also reside in Charlotte. Away from work, I spend time with my family, exercise, watch movies, and travel.

A part of the Jackson Orthodontics core philosophy is giving back to our community, especially the local schools. In all, the practice has partnered with 13 schools inscholarships, school plays, speechesat career days, and monetary gifts. I also started a male mentoring program at Southwest Middle School to help connect students with an adult whocan guide them in the transition from elementary to middle to high school. I believe community support is the responsibility of all community leaders.

During my residency at Saint Louis Universitys Center for Advanced Dental Education, I had the opportunity to learn a wide variety of techniques, from classicorthodontic techniques to new, cutting-edge technologiesand treatments. After my residency, I associated in Chapel Hill, North Carolina for three years. I had the opportunity to treat great patients with difficult cases and create beautiful smiles.

Continuing education keeps me current with the latest treatment modalities so that I am continually reducing treatment time while maximizing treatment outcomes and achieving smiles our patients are proud of and cant wait to share!

I attend the American Association of Orthodontists annual meeting, the Damon Forum, and study club meetings with some of the best and most progressive minds in my profession, to exchange ideas about how to best treat our patients. I believe that completing continuing education on various new treatment methods allows me to deliver care to my patients that exceed their expectations. The continuing education that I attend is focused on improving my patients orthodontic experience, increasing our efficiency, and keeping up with advances in materials and technology soI can deliver the best care to my patients.

The Jackson Orthodontics team is experienced and continually trained to ensure your orthodontic journey is as comfortable as possible. Every team member of the Jackson Orthodontics Dream Team is passionate about our mission to have a positiveimpact on each patient by being committed to creating beautiful smiles and strengthening our community.

I began my career in 1995 as an assistant in general dentistry,until I decided to specialize my skills in orthodontics. After working at Jackson Orthodontics, I cant imagine being anywhere elsenothing could come close!

Dr. Jackson and his staff love the energy and fun that comes with working with children, adolescents, and young adults. At the end of treatment, our patientsexcitement at seeing their new smile is always magical to watch. Aformer orthodontic patient himself, Dr. Jackson understands their excitement and loves to help celebrate!

Every detail of our practice is designed to make your journey to a beautiful smile comfortable, fun, and personal. We strive not to be like every practice. Often, patients go through orthodontics without forming a bond with their doctor. Dr. Jackson is committed to being engaged with every patient at every visit.

More important than our office conveniences is the way we care for our patients. Our team always makes sure to treat patients like family members. It is our goal to provide a fun, energetic, and professional orthodontic experience. Our staff is highly and continually trained. We feel the real difference in our office;one of the things that we are known foris exceptional patient care.
