About Us

I love being an orthodontist. Over the years, I have had the opportunity to meet so many wonderful people, and the friendships that I’ve built with my patients and their families are one in a million. It has always been my focus to make each patient feel at home when they come to me for treatment, and I work hard to give my patients the attention they deserve!

Education & Experience:
My education in dentistry and orthodontics has provided me with a strong foundation of knowledge and experience. Before becoming an orthodontist, I received my undergraduate degree from Boise State University. I also graduated cum laude from the University of Louisville School of Dentistry. Following dental school, I completed one year of hospital residency in general dentistry. Following my hospital residency, I completed two years of formal orthodontic training at the University of Louisville.

Continuing Education:
By regularly participating in continuing education, I am able to stay current on the latest technology in orthodontic treatments. My patients deserve the best, and continuing education allows me to provide my patients with more options and better results. I am a member of several professional associations that provide me with opportunities for continuing education, including the:

• American Dental Association®
• American Association of Orthodontists®
• Idaho Dental Association
• Pacific Coast Society of Orthodontists

A Commitment to the Community:
I am truly blessed to live and work in such a wonderful community. I enjoy getting to know my patients and their families, and it is always such an honor to know that I have made a difference in so many of my patient’s lives. I couldn’t ask for a better job or a better group of people to be sharing their smiles with me. I look forward to working with you!

Personal:
I am an avid mountain biker, hate sushi, and love being with my family. Whether I am boating, hiking or just hanging out, it’s my favorite place to be! If I had a superpower, I would be the world’s greatest ninja! However, if you ask my patients or team, they might say I already am!

Dr. Curtis loves being around people, and he became an orthodontist because he loves working with both kids and adults to help them transform their smiles!

Dr. Rebekah Goforth was born in Boise. Although her family moved to North Carolina when she was a child, they always kept the Treasure Valley in their hearts. When she was ready to settle with her family, they decided to call Treasure Valley home. Always attracted to the mountains, Dr. Goforth attended Appalachian State University, nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains of the East Coast, where she graduated with honors with a major in biology and chemistry. Afterward, she attended the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill School of Dentistry, where she served as the president of the dental school’s student body, followed by an orthodontic residency while earning her master’s in oral biology from the University of Tennessee. Her husband’s career in obstetrics and gynecology moved her family to Baltimore, Maryland, where she practiced orthodontics in a private practice. As a tribute to her commitment to excellence, she is among the 33% of orthodontists nationally who are board-certified. She enjoys making smiles and giving back to her community and her profession, and she teaches orthodontic residents and practicing orthodontists alike at the Tweed International Orthodontic Foundation. In her free time, you can find Dr. Goforth spending time outdoors with her husband, her son, her daughter, and her dog. Her favorite indoor activities include painting, knitting, writing, and reading. She enjoys eating good food and trail running in the foothills to compensate.
