Dr. Joseph Bonifield

Didn’t know Bradenton had an orthodontist just a stone’s throw from the water? Dr. Joseph Bonifield keeps teeth in line without fanfare a few blocks south of the Manatee River. You’ll find the practice tucked into the quiet stretch of 2020 59th St W, a straight shot across town where the back roads hum and new arrivals sometimes overshoot. They handle the usual straightening suspects—metal brackets, clear aligners, lingual braces—plus a few curveballs like early interceptive work for kids and retention checks that stretch years after the main treatment ends. If your teen needs spacers before the molars decide to wander, you’ll know where to point the car. Space for parking sits out front; the only landmark left unnamed is the old tire shop half a block north. Before you hop in, call 941-756-7463. Need a map that actually drops you at the right curb?
