Legacy
After decades of dedicated service, Dr. Bret Mooso has retired, leaving behind a legacy built on genuine relationships, clinical excellence, and a deep love for his patients and community. Known for treating every patient like family Dr. Mooso created a practice rooted in trust, gratitude, and lasting friendships. His passion for orthodontics, commitment to continuing education, and belief that a great experience matters just as much as great results shaped a culture of care that has defined this practice for generations.
As the new owner of the practice, Dr. Josh Murphy is committed to honoring Dr. Mooso’s legacy while thoughtfully advancing the care he provides. By blending modern orthodontic techniques and continuous clinical improvement with the same patient-focused philosophy that has always guided the practice, Dr. Murphy ensures that the values patients have come to trust will remain at the core of everything we do.
