Our Story
Dr. Bonner grew up an imaginative child of a dentist, loving to look at “before and after” photos in her dad’s office. There was something magical to her about making a crooked tooth straight and helping another person have a beautiful smile. Being an orthodontist has been her dream since the second grade—it’s the perfect calling for someone who enjoys using their brains and their hands to help people, while creating lasting relationships in the community.
As an adult, Dr. Bonner has the same amount of enthusiasm and even reverence for the process, which she now knows to be more about the skill of finding the right solution and using technology effectively and less about miracles. Not that she doesn’t still find magic in her practice—she still loves to see the power that a great smile has on self-confidence and self-esteem.
After teaching orthodontics at the University of Iowa, she wanted to spread her wings in private practice. Bonner Orthodontics was born in 2015 in Rogers, AR. Every day, every treatment decision is dedicated to helping patients along their own journey to a stronger, healthier, more confident version of themselves.
