Black Orthodontics

The Get It Straight Podcast has returned!


As always, our goal is to highlight the best and brightest in the field of orthodontics. Today, we’ll be talking with the good people from over at Black Orthodontics. Joining the conversation is team member Heather Blalock, along with Dr. Black himself!

Their practice is located in Asheville, North Carolina, and they’ve served the community with stronger smiles for quite a while. Dr. Black alone has been in the field for over three decades, and his experience shows in his top level treatment of clients. Read on to learn more!

How Orthodontics Equates To More Family Time


Turning the clocks back to his entry into the field, Dr. Black says he knew this was the path for him in dental school.

“No disrespect to a,l my good dentist buddies, but I knew I wasn’t going to end up being a dentist.” It was between braces, and becoming an all out dental surgeon.

The key factor in his decision making was the overall time commitment of the latter. He reasoned that such a path would be too demanding, taking away from much needed, quality family time. The orthodontic field offered the perfect opportunity for both flexibility and a livable wage.

Dr. Black is sure to note that none of this would be possible without a strong, competent team of colleagues.

This wonderful practice is yet another example of just how favorable a career in the field is for those with the passion and skillset. It’s a grind, no doubt, but by all accounts, it’s more than worth it.

The Get It Straight Podcast would like to thank Dr. Black and Heather for talking with us. You can listen to the full discussion above.
