Continuing Education
Board Certification
After finishing my orthodontic residency at UNC, I completed the additional work to become a board-certified orthodontist.
This required many additional hours of case preparation, oral and written exams, and case presentation to a panel of examiners with the American Board of Orthodontists. I am proud to say that I received board certification in 2012 and maintain that certification today.
Board-Certified Orthodontist in Sanford & Bayboro
Meet Dr. Brian Smith
One of the primary reasons I went into the orthodontics field was the opportunity to see what a positive impact my father, Dr. Lynn Smith, had on the many people he treated. It is such an honor to be able to provide a meaningful service to so many in our community.
You Are the Key to My Practice
In our practice, you are important. The pathway to your successful outcome starts with excellent diagnosis, treatment planning, and treatment delivery.
We work hard to build relationships with you so we understand your goals, and we also work hard to educate you and your kids about the orthodontic process.
Memberships & Affiliations
Outside of the Office
My wife Jan and I have been blessed with three children: Ginny, Mary Thomas, and Will. My free time is spent with my family or outdoors, where I enjoy mountain biking and running. During basketball season, we support the Tar Heels with great enthusiasm.
Community Involvement
I believe it is important to be active in the local community and supportive of our patients as they pursue their many endeavors.
For me, that takes the form of teaching Sunday school at St. Luke United Methodist Church, coaching youth soccer and basketball, participating as a board member with the Sanford Area Soccer League and giving talks at local elementary schools about oral hygiene and diet.
