Dr. Brian Gaudreaults decision to become an orthodontist came at a very young age, influenced by the care he received as a child from his orthodontist. He strives to provide the best treatment possible in a friendly, comfortable environment.

Dr. Gaudreault, along with the American Association of Orthodontists, recommends children are first seen at age 7. This allows treatment to begin at the most beneficial time and minimizes the overall length of time in braces. His airway-centered treatment approach for adults and children considers the anatomical structures of the head, neck and face to determine how best to create the perfect smile. He pays attention to creating a customized arch form for each patient to realize the perfect smile arc. Dr. Gaudreault utilizes the best technologies to achieve his goals. These technologies allow for efficient, comfortable, and most importantly, customized treatment for every patient.

Dr. Gaudreault attended Tufts University School of Dental Medicine, where he excelled, graduating summa cum laude (2nd overall) and received his certificate in orthodontics.
