Dr. Waite earned his Bachelor of Science degree in Biology from BYU-Hawaii. He then attended the University Of Southern California School Of Dentistry and graduated with a Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) degree.

Dr. Waite remains on the cutting edge of his profession by staying current on the latest orthodontic research and employing the most effective orthodontic techniques.
