“Whenever anyone asks, I can honestly say that I just love what I do. As an Omaha, NE, orthodontist, I get to change smiles and provide each patient with an opportunity to create a smile they are happy with. I love the excitement when they are getting ready for braces. As treatment progresses, it is great to see my patients start to smile more and more as they see a change in their smile and their confidence growing.
I am so lucky to have such a great team to work with each day. I love that we all love to laugh and enjoy the work we do. I absolutely could not do what I do without them; they all work hard to make each and every patient feel welcome and important. We truly believe that each person is significant and that they deserve the time and attention necessary for a successful smile. We try to make every patient feel comfortable in the office and help them to understand that they don’t need to be nervous.”
– Dr. Michael Morrison
Omaha Orthodontics’ patients have access to the most highly trained and certified orthodontists in the field. After Dr. Morrison earned a Bachelor of Science in Medical Biology from the University of Utah, our Omaha, NE, orthodontist went on to Creighton University School of Dentistry for his Doctorate in Dental Surgery. Dr. Morrison’s extensive education and training also includes a general practice residency at the University of Nebraska Medical Center, an oral surgery internship at University of Pittsburgh School of Dentistry, and his Master of Science in orthodontics from Indiana University School of Dentistry.
Dr. Morrison, our Omaha, NE, orthodontist, is strongly committed to continuing education to ensure all his patients receive the highest possible quality orthodontic treatments. His considerable training in the most recent advances in orthodontic technology delivers the most comfortable, efficient treatments available.
Dr. Morrison’s strong knowledge of his profession keeps Omaha Orthodontics at the very forefront of cutting edge treatments in the field of orthodontics.
In addition to his formal training and continuing education, Dr. Morrison went through the rigorous process to become a board-certified Omaha orthodontist. Only one in three orthodontists is certified; it is a voluntary certification that requires the specialist to pass a written exam and have the quality of his or her treatment results evaluated by the American Board of Orthodontics. Dr. Morrison wants the best for his patients, so achieving this level of certification was a no-brainer!
ABO Board Certification is a voluntary credential that represents an orthodontist’s personal and public commitment to the standards of specialty practice and lifelong learning. The ABO Certification process requires the completion of peer-developed, externally validated written and clinical examinations. A Board Certified Orthodontist has reached this level of achievement by pursuing additional voluntary education and ongoing self- assessment.
Board Certification is confirmation of an orthodontist’s personal commitment to providing lifelong quality patient care.
The American Board of Orthodontics is the only orthodontic specialty board recognized by the American Dental Association and the American Association of Orthodontists.
These professional affiliations enable Dr. Morrison to stay current with all the latest trends, techniques, and technologies within his specialty, and allow him to interact with his colleagues for the collective benefit of all patients’ care.
While Dr. Michael Morrison is originally from Salt Lake City, he and his wife, Nichole, are thrilled to be raising their six children – Hannah, Gracie, Joshua, Sophia, William, and Josie – here in Omaha, NE. His family enjoys Nebraska’s many outdoor activities, and loves to spend time boating, hiking, camping, playing games, or just hanging out together. Outside his practice as an Omaha, NE, orthodontist, Dr. Morrison also continues his active role in the local community, adding to his prior volunteer experience with the Boy Scouts, Little League, and overseas missionary work.
