Dr. Andros' bio
This content was provided by Dr. Andros "I first became passionate about orthodontics after having braces myself. I saw first hand how a great smile has a huge impact on one's life. I look forward to getting to know my patients over the course of their treatment and working hard together. One of my favorite things is seeing how happy patients are when their braces are removed and seeing their beautiful, confident smiles." Dr. Andros grew up in the Tri-cities. He attended Richland High and has always been an active member of the community from a young age. As a youth he became an Eagle Scout, worked for The ARC of Tri-cities for 3 years, organized several Red Cross blood drives and many other service opportunities. He served a volunteer 2 year mission in Eastern Australia where he became fluent in Mandarin Chinese. Dr. Andros obtained his B.S. in Biology at Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah. There he was involved in multiple research labs studying Type II Diabetes, Alzhiemers, perinatal ultrasound safety and Parkinson's disease. He also was chosen as a teaching assistant and was on the rugby team that took 2nd place at Nationals. After his undergraduate studies were completed, Dr Andros studied at Columbia University College of Dental Medicine. He was the Paul Nicholas Scholarship recipient and his area of concentration was Facial Pain Management. In 2011 he received his DDS (Doctor of Dental Surgery). Dr. Andros was very involved at Columbia. He participated in orthodontic research, The NYC Oral Cancer walk, CDM Student Run Free Clinic, Orthodontic Club, Give Kids a Smile, KADSA, Smile Savers, Children's Oral Health Month, and JADA. The highlight of his time at Columbia was his Global Health Externship in rural Guatemala, where he provided dental care to the Mayan Tribes. It was an experience that he treasures and looks forward to serving again. Following recieving his DDS, Dr. Andros returned to the Tri-cities to work as a general dentist and also taught at Charter College. Dr. Andros then attended the 2 year orthodontic residency program at Jacksonville University School of Orthodontics in Florida, where he received his Certificate of Orthodontics. Dr. Andros is excited to be back in the Tri-cities. He feels it is a great community to live and raise a family. In his free time he enjoys spending time with his family, surfing, paddleboarding, leather working, and reading.

Care Philosophy
This content was provided by Dr. Andros "At Andros Orthodontics, we pride ourselves on providing treatment that is affordable, transformative and efficient. We use world-class qualifications, the latest technology and cutting-edge products to give our patients the attention and care they deserve — all while managing their treatment programs to be considerate of their time.When you enter the doors of our tastefully decorated, state-of-the-art offices, we want you to feel welcome and comfortable. If you're a young person, looking to play video games in the kid's area and lounge on the bean bags, or an adult who prefers privacy while receiving care in one of our separate, secluded rooms, there is something for everyone.We treat each of our patients as the valuable individuals that they are, and we love nothing more than to see the beams of happiness shine from our patients' faces as they smile for the first time after treatment — no more hesitance, no more insecurities. Our greatest reward is seeing how a smile can bring confidence where there was insecurity, pride where there was pain.Spending time and money on an orthodontic program can be an investment, but when you choose to invest in us for your orthodontic treatment, we promise to invest in you. And we promise, for the years and years of smiles to come, it's worth it."
