Meet Dr. Christine Bode

Hi there! I’m originally from Gadsden, Alabama, and a proud Auburn University alum (War Eagle!), where I earned my degree in chemistry. After college, I was honored to receive the U.S. Air Force Health Professions Scholarship, which led me to the University of Alabama at Birmingham for dental school. From there, I completed an Advanced Education in General Dentistry Residency at the U.S. Air Force Academy and had the incredible opportunity to serve in South Korea, Germany, and right back home in Alabama.

After seven amazing years practicing general dentistry, I was thrilled to chase my longtime dream of becoming an orthodontist. I headed to the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (go Tar Heels!) for orthodontic training, where I dove deep into everything from braces to jaw surgery to the latest in treatment technology. Though I’ve wrapped up my active duty service, I’m proud to continue serving as a Major in the Air Force Reserves.

When I’m not working on smiles, you’ll find me spending time with my husband, Casey, and our two high-energy, fun-loving daughters, Reagan and Peyton. I’m so excited to be part of the Star Orthodontics family and even more excited to help you or your child achieve a confident, healthy smile. Let’s make this journey fun, friendly, and full of great results. I can’t wait to meet you!
