As an orthodontist, Dr. Fisk must recognize various characteristics of a malocclusion or dentofacial deformity, define the nature of the problem, including the etiology if possible, and design a treatment strategy based on the specific needs and desires of the patient.
Orthodontics is the perfect blend of dentistry, engineering, and biology, and the reason Dr. Jonathan initially pursued the field. But what excites him the most is seeing the genuine happiness of his patients when they finish their orthodontic treatment.
He develops close relationships with his patients during the course of their treatment. Hearing their latest news, catching up on their most recent adventures and plans for vacations, and learning about their lives, is very rewarding. For him, being an orthodontist isn’t just about straightening teeth and creating beautiful smiles; it’s about the people he serves and the friendships they develop.
