About Us
Dr. Stephens
For Dr. Claude R. Stephens, it was family that inspired him to spend his life helping others. His father was a medic in the military and his siblings are nurses and teachers. He earned his Bachelor’s degree from Austin College and his Doctorate of Dental Surgery from Baylor College of Dentistry. While at Baylor, he discovered that his true calling was orthodontics. He went on to complete orthodontic training and earn a Master of Science degree from the Ohio State University. Dr. Stephens is a board-certified orthodontist and a member of the American Dental Association, American Association of Orthodontists, and the Texas Association of Orthodontists. He is a part-time professor for the orthodontic program at Texas A&M dental school in Dallas . Dr. Stephens served 32 years in the United States Navy both active and Reserve. He retired as a Captain in 2013. Dr. Stephens and his wife, Valerie, a pediatric nurse, are happily married and have three children: one of whom is a college professor, another who followed in her father's footsteps serving in the United States Navy, and the third who is still deciding on a career. All three have straight, great-looking smiles created by their dad.
Fun Fact
Since 2010 Dr Stephens has often been invited to be a guest examiner for the mock Board exam given to graduating orthodontists at UT Houston Dental School and Texas A&M dental school because of his extensive experience and work with the American Board of Orthodontics.
