Meet Dr. Barbara Fodero
‘‘I only recommend treatment that I would do for myself or my children."
Why did Dr. Fodero choose orthodontics?
“I became interested in orthodontics in college. I’m artistic and love working with my hands, but I always had an aptitude for math and science. I wanted a career that would allow me to pursue my two passions — having the artistic license to work with my hands while having the challenge of problem solving. My medium is not typical of most artists — I work with teeth. I engineer moving them to make a beautiful smile that has a profound impact on someone’s self-confidence and overall dental health. It’s very rewarding.”
What’s the best part of being a Chatham orthodontist?
“The best part of my job is connecting with people. I enjoy forming a relationship with my patients, particularly young people because I get the privilege of seeing them change and grow. I also had orthodontic treatment, so I relate to the process and do my best to make it as pleasant as possible. Finally, I enjoy seeing the end results, of course!”

about our family-friendly orthodontist.
‘‘When I’m not straightening teeth, I enjoy being a mom to my two very active boys."
“My mom taught me to always be kind.”
Dr. Fodero and her staff are super friendly, caring, and professional. The kids never complain about going to their visit to the orthodontist, which is so great! My oldest son had his expander put in and already removed and his teeth look awesome! We haven't even taken the next step of braces yet and I am so happy with results thus far. Dr. Fodero takes her time and really gives 100% to attention to detail.
