Meet Our Doctors

The Fishbein Fundamentals conference was founded by Dr. Ben Fishbein and Fishbein Orthodontics COO Amanda Floyd in 2018. Since then we have hosted more than 500 orthodontic practices and 1000 attendees across more than 15 conferences.

Our purpose is to share the “secret sauce” that helped make Fishbein Orthodontics the fastest growing practice in the Southeast.
