Ours is a long-standing commitment to our patients-one that has lasted over 75 years of combined experience creating smiles: Two generations of doctors and three generations of patients. Dr. William Thompson started this practice in Bradenton in 1960, and was joined by his son, Dr. Jeff Thompson, in 1985.
Since then, our family has been passionate about creating awesome smiles for thousands of your families in the Bradenton, Lakewood, Sarasota, Palmetto, and Ellenton communities. Thank you for visiting Orthodontic Specialists! We believe that orthodontics is much more than just straightening teeth.

As a second-generation orthodontist, I have had the unique opportunity to see first hand how satisfying and how enjoyable it is to 'Create Smiles for Generations' that everyone is proud of and that will last a lifetime. I love that we have developed long-term relationships and friendships with our patients and changed lives.
There's never been a better time to straighten your teeth with the most advanced clear aligner in the world.

Faster treatment: With weekly aligner changes, you're on your way to the smile you want even faster.
The American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) was founded in 1929. It is the oldest and most prestigious specialty board in dentistry. The ABO's aim is to elevate the standards of the practice of orthodontia, to familiarize the public with its aim and ideals, and to protect the public against irresponsible and unqualified practitioners.
Dr. Thompson is uniquely qualified to provide you with comprehensive and custom treatment plans that result in the best outcome, in the least amount of time. In addition to using traditional braces, Dr. Thompson is able to treat a broad range of issues with Invisalign, so if you've been told in the past that you are not a good candidate, please request a complimentary Invisalign consultation.

Dr. Thompson and his staff are exceptional with my two eight year old boys. Everyone is very kind and respectful and they take the time to answer our every question. We’ve been to the Lakewood Ranch location several times and each visit has been very pleasant. Dr. Thompson’s work speaks for itself, and he’s created a custom plan for each of my children and so far it is going very well. We look forward to going through the rest of our orthodontic journey with this truly wonderful group of professionals.

After several Orthodontists and dentists suggested veneers for my daughters small teeth, Dr. Thompson said he could do it with Invisalign and he did! Her teeth look great, her smile is beautiful, and he is a man of his word. Veneers would have been intrusive, costly and less than ideal for a teenager. Her experience was nothing but positive and easy with this practice. We highly recommend!
