No. All orthodontists must be licensed to practice, but at this time only 1 in 3 orthodontists have continued on to complete Board Certification. The American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) certification process signifies a unique achievementa significant step beyond the two to three years of advanced education required for a dentist to become a specialist in orthodontics. The process requires the orthodontist to demonstrate actual accomplishments in patient care with detailed case reports on the treatment provided for a broad range of patient problems. Board certification is a voluntary achievement that all orthodontists do not choose to pursue. In order to become board certified by the ABO, an individual orthodontist is thoroughly interviewed by a highly respected panel of examiners to demonstrate their orthodontic knowledge, clinical skills and judgment.
One. The American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) is the only certifying board in the specialty that is recognized by the American Dental Association. The ABO was founded in 1929 and is the oldest specialty board in dentistry. The boards purpose is to elevate the quality of orthodontic care for the public by promoting excellence through certification, education and professional collaboration.
Successful completion of the examination process demonstrates the orthodontists highest commitment to excellence in orthodontics to both the orthodontic profession and the general public. It represents a commitment by a licensed specialist that he/she has the necessary knowledge base and skills to treat patients to the highest of standards. It exemplifies a practitioners commitment to continue to keep abreast of the latest advances in patient care, and to continue to deliver these latest advances to patients. Many orthodontists see it as a demonstration of their dedication to the specialty and the highest level of personal achievement.
Since the establishment of the ABO in 1929, the certification process requirements have continued to adjust to the demands of the specialty. Today, the process involves a thorough Written Examination (240 questions) covering all areas of information which an orthodontist should be knowledgeable. Successful completion of this board exam allows the orthodontist to proceed to the Clinical Examination where they present detailed case reports from their practice/residency, demonstrating a history of excellence in patient care. These cases are evaluated by a panel of examiners and later discussed during an oral examination where the applicant is tested on a wide variety of academic and clinical topics. After successful completion of these examinations, the orthodontist has officially achieved Board Certification, for a time-limited period. The orthodontist must go through Certification Renewal every 10 years to maintain their certification status by demonstrating this continued level of patient care.

Look no further, for the best Orthodontic treatment! I've had the most amazing experience with Dr Bert Rouleau & Dr Aaron Rouleau, and cannot recommend them enough. I'm about to complete an Invisalign+braces treatment, and my teeth look so good compared to when I started - I'm truly grateful. They've been so patient with me, as well as changed the course of the treatment to optimize for the best outcome. Not surprising that they have all 5 star reviews - I wish I could give them even more stars!

Hello, I would like to take a moment and thank Dr. Rouleau and his staff for our wonderful experience from October 2019. My 14 years old son needed braces but first a surgery for his complicated wisdom and molars teeth. We met Dr. Rouleau to get advise as one of my friends recommended this office late 2019. With Dr. Rouleau's advise we met Dr. Beech (Surgeon). A clean and fine surgery without any complication following by Dr. Rouleau's expertise in Orthodontics after almost one year we could see everything went well as expected! During the hard time of covid this office continuously acting very professional and thoughtful to take care of its patients. Calling to remind making appointment and so on. We really appreciate your wonderful work Dr. Rouleau! Wish you, your family and your staff the BEST ! Stay Safe! Arya's parents

What a wonderful team they are at Rouleau Orthodontics! My daughter had such a great experience there I would highly recommend to anyone. The front office staff were extremely helpful with all scheduling and billing issues and the doctors are not only excellent doctors but they are the nicest people too...a warm, family atmosphere that my daughter always felt comfortable in.

Very nice and professional staff and doctors. I took one star off because they don't send reminder msg the day before; instead, they sent the message two weeks before the appointment. I have missed two out of my three appointments and paid $100. Remember to set alarm on your phone calendar.

When was the last time you heard someone say "we loved going to the orthodontist"? Well, we did. We looked forward to every visit. What a fantastic team. The highest level of professionalism, great care, the best service, smiling faces, awesome people, fast and efficient, no surprises, and it was all over too soon. We're going to miss going to Rouleau Orthodontics. If you need or want orthodonture, I wouldn't consider anyone else; this team is the best. Thank you Dr. Rouleau!

The doctors Rouleau, father and son team, are really outstanding. They are both informed and up to date with all the current treatment modalities available within the field, teaching on the side at UOP Dental School. But, the best part is that they are both so friendly and personable! They seem to really like the kids they help and what they do. It is always a pleasure to come by their office. The staff is superb, so sweet and skillful. Being a dentist myself, I chose this office with care, looking for the best for my daughter.

Beyond Awesome experience!! We were referred to Dr.Rouleau by our family dentist back in 2014. Dr.Bert and Dr.Aaron gave our daughter not only a beautiful smile but also helped with overall jaw and facial alignment. Dr.Bert was patient and conservative in his approach for braces and guided us for nearly 18 months post butterfly treatment to determine if braces were absolutely necessary. The front desk is warm, friendly and easy to work with regarding scheduling appointments. Very clean welcoming office. Highly recommend for orthodontic treatment for any age group.

We were referred to Rouleau by our dentist. Father and son orthodontist team gave us professional guidance and corrected a pronounced overbite and gave a new smile to our daughter. The entire orthodontist team from receptionist to hygienist was very competent, friendly and accommodating. I highly recommend the Rouleau orthodontist office and would go back any time.

I cannot begin to describe the AMAZING service I've received from Rouleau Orthodontics! I am so impressed with the kindness and professionalism shown towards patients by the staff. I had braces applied in April, and Dr. Aaron and Dr. Bert made sure that I understood of all my options and clearly explained exactly what would take place. Pember and Megan are so polite and great at scheduling appointments that work with my schedule. The entire process has been seamless and so stress-free! I would definitely recommend!

Rouleau Orthodontics was fantastic! My journey to a happy smile was a long one to say the least. It took over 3 years for my teeth to get fixed! The invisalign worked for me and allowed me to avoid getting braces. There were three other Orthodontists that I saw and they all told me it would be impossible without braces. Rouleau made me feel confident they could do it but I HAD to be vigilant about wearing my trays. Needless to say I wore them for 23 hours almost every single day for about 3 plus years! They were accommodating with all of my appointments!
