Bradley E. Goings, DDSWelcome to my website! Thank you for taking the time to learn about my orthodontic office in Fort Collins, CO. I hope what you read is helpful and interesting.
I am a board certified orthodontist in Fort Collins, CO who specializes in providing orthodontic treatment for all ages. I opened Goings Orthodontics in June 2007 with my wife, Kathryn. Together we have built our practice from the ground up into what it is today. I wanted to create a place where people feel comfortable, welcome, and receive excellent patient care. I also wanted to ensure that I have the latest technology and advancements to serve my patients.
I grew up on a farm and ranch in western Nebraska, and spent many summers visiting the northern Colorado area. After graduating from Chadron State College in northwestern Nebraska, I earned my Doctor of Dental Surgery degree with high distinction from the University of Nebraska in Lincoln in 1999.
I then served in the U.S. Air Force as a general dentist for five years and was stationed in England, just outside of Oxford. I was one of two dentists for the military members and their families and provided a variety of services (cleanings, extractions, root canals, wisdom teeth surgeries, etc). While there I developed and directed the children's dental education program, as well.
Prior to becoming a dentist, I was very interested in becoming an orthodontist. I had orthodontics when I was younger. Unfortunately, my parents did not get me to an orthodontist early enough. I went when I was 12 or 13 and had 2 impacted canines (means the teeth are stuck in the bone) and had to have a surgery to get them to come in the mouth correctly. I also had to have an expander and full braces. When I was 18, I had jaw surgery to correct my underbite. I have been through the whole range of treatment with orthodontics. When everything was finished, my face, jaw, and smile were completely transformed. I felt amazing. I wanted to have the ability to make others feel howI felt. That is when I began looking into what I could do to become an orthodontist.
I graduated from the University of Colorado orthodontic program in 2006. I always knew I would move to Northern Colorado and decided to build my practice here. Together, Kathryn and I have created a place that we feel is our second home. We want our patients to feel comfortable and welcome they come through our doors and while they are in treatment.
Kathryn and I enjoy working together but when we have spare time we like to hike with our dogs - Daisy and Brackley, travel, cook, watch movies and especially love watching college football. I am a big fan of the Cornhuskers and try to attend a few games a year.
I am constantly learning new things about teeth, orthodontics, and how I can better care for my patients. I regularly attend Continuing Education courses on orthodontics, the Damon System, and TMJ disorders.
