After Dental School, Doctor Wright completed a one-year residency in clinical and hospital-based dentistry at the VA hospital in the San Fernando Valley.  He also spent a year practicing General Dentistry, an experience which has given him a unique perspective on the relationship between Dentistry as a whole, and Orthodontics.  Afterwards, he traveled to Indiana, where he completed a two year residency in orthodontics, receiving his Specialty Certificate as well as his Masters of Science in Dentistry Degree in Orthodontics from Indiana University. 
After graduating from IU, Doctor Wright came
to Camarillo and opened his first orthodontic
practice in 2001.  He then purchased his Santa

his office was awarded the Readers’ Choice

treated over 500 such cases, in addition to
more than 5000 cases with traditional and
ceramic braces.  An experienced lecturer
and speaker, Dr. Wright has taught at
numerous venues including Oxnard College
Dental Hygiene School, The Santa Barbara
Dental Hygiene Society, several private dental offices, Clinicas of Oxnard, and multiple continuing education seminars in the past several years.
Doctor Chad Wright is an active member of the American Dental Association, the American Association of Orthodontists, and is one of the few Board Certified Orthodontists in Ventura and Santa Barbara Counties.  He uses the latest technological advancements that make braces less noticeable, improve patient comfort, and reduce appointment length and total treatment time. As a certified Invisalign provider, he has proudly earned the reputation of being one of the top Invisalign providers in California. Dr. Wright enjoys being an active member of the community by supporting both educational and athletic activities whenever he can.
Doctor Chad Wright and his wife, Laura, were married in 1992, and are the proud parents of two beautiful girls, Megan and Sophie, and two great boys, Adam and Sam.  When he is not practicing orthodontics, Dr. Wright enjoys camping, singing with his Old-School Rock-n-Roll band FESTIVUS, writing fiction, and watching his kids play soccer.
