Dr. David Ross knew at a very young age that he wanted to help people and be in the healthcare field. As time went by, he began to learn more about dentistry and appreciate what it means to make people feel good about their smiles. This began his love for orthodontics and his passion for giving people an amazing experience and making them feel happy and confident about their smiles.
Dr. Ross graduated from the University of Maryland at College Park with a Bachelor of Science degree in Neurobiology and Physiology. He went on to graduate from the University of Maryland Dental School with his Doctor of Dental Surgery (D.D.S.) degree. He stayed at the University of Maryland Dental School to complete a three-year residency program in orthodontics and received a Specialty Certificate in Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics. Dr. Ross also earned a Master of Science degree in Oral Biology. He’s board-certified and is a diplomate of the American Board of Orthodontics. Only 25% of all U.S. orthodontists reach this status.
Dr. Ross prides himself on having built a practice based on his main philosophy - Aligning Happiness. Our goal is to provide you with the highest quality orthodontic experience that’s personal and unique for you and your child’s smile. That’s why when you begin treatment at David Ross Orthodontics, you’ll never be treated as just a patient, but as family.
