Thank you for visiting the website of the Florida Association of Orthodontists, led by our 2022-2023 President, Dr. Thomas 'TJ' Albert, who practices in Naples, Florida! Founded in 1940, the FAO is an association of orthodontic specialists that proactively fosters the delivery of ethical, quality, professional orthodontic care for the public.
The FAO is one of the largest associations within the American Association of Orthodontists, and we are the largest state association within the Southern Association of Orthodontists, representing more than 600 orthodontists throughout the state of Florida.
We are dedicated to improving the art and science of orthodontics. To do so, every March we offer many hours of continuing education at the FAO Annual Session in Tampa as well as expanded duties certification courses for staff members during the year all across the state.
