Meet Dr. Richard Bruno

“I have always revered the practice of orthodontics. Orthodontics is more than just straightening teeth” says Dr. Bruno. “It’s about inspiring confidence, and about making health-positive change that has the power to transform our patients’ lives.” I respect the hard work and dedication required to become an orthodontist and I am continually experiencing new ways to expand my knowledge of the orthodontic specialty.”

Working alongside Dr. Greenlees, Dr. Bruno witnessed the importance of taking time to understand each patient’s needs and the impact that individualized care and attention has on their treatment.  “Our patients are not just the orthodontic case that we treat — they are our friends, family, and neighbors and we want them to feel that way when they visit our practice.”

While preserving the spirit of a family practice, Dr. Bruno’s other passion lies in innovation that powers his patient’s treatment, and is proud to be the first provider in the area to offer some of the latest advancements in contemporary orthodontic care.  “We’ve invested in technologies that allow for easier patient communication, increased patient comfort and greater clinical control and precision.”  Dr. Bruno and his team agree that the most rewarding aspect of working in a tech-forward practice is having extra time to spend with each patient.

Dr. Richard Bruno, a Rochester native, has been a practicing orthodontics since 1997. He received his undergraduate degree in biology from Albion College, his Doctor of Dental Surgery from The University of Michigan School of Dentistry and his Masters of Science and Orthodontic Certificates from The University of Detroit Mercy.

He and his wife, Kate, have two wonderful adult children, Grace, who is pursuing her J.D. degree and Domenic, an undergraduate finance major. In his free time, Dr. Bruno enjoys time spent with family, staying fit, travel, and personal growth.
