Our office has been voted the #1 orthodontic office in Longmont by our peers in the dental community as published by Denver's 5280 Magazine every year since 2008. In 2013-2021, we have shared the top honors. The top orthodontist results were published in the May issue. Dr. Beckwith has taken the extra steps to achieve his American Board of Orthodontics certification.
Historically, only 20% of orthodontists have completed ALL aspects of their board certification. To achieve this certification means that Dr. Beckwith passed a comprehensive written examination covering all aspects of orthodontics. Many orthodontists stop here as Board Eligible.

Treatment Philosophy
Report
Dr. Beckwith's treatment philosophy is simple. He wants to give you the most beautiful or handsome smile and healthiest bite possible. Teeth straightening is why most patients seek orthodontic care. Dr. "B" will make your teeth as straight as possible; however, Dr. Beckwith knows that orthodontics is much more than just straight teeth.

Faq
Report
Our smile influences not just how we perceive ourselves but how others perceive us as well. In one research study, teachers perceived the kids with straight teeth and normal bites as smarter. Ridiculous? Yes, but true. An attractive smile and improved self-image are just a few of the benefits of orthodontic treatment.
