Everyone Should Love Their Smile
At Messenger Orthodontics, our vision is the culmination of over 20 years of education and experience, paired with a genuine passion for creating beautiful, healthy smiles. As a top-rated orthodontist in Huntington Beach, we provide Invisalign and braces for children, teens, and adults throughout Huntington Beach and Orange County.
Established in 2018, Messenger Orthodontics combines state-of-the-art technology with a highly personalized approach to care. As a board-certified orthodontic specialist—a distinction held by only 30% of orthodontists—I am dedicated to staying at the forefront of orthodontic advances. Every smile is digitally planned to ensure treatment is efficient, effective, and delivers the most esthetic results for each patient’s unique needs. We use the highest quality braces, aligners, and appliances available to ensure optimal outcomes and comfort.
As an Orange County native, I love the beach and being outdoors, and I’ve designed my boutique practice with those inspirations in mind. We pride ourselves on creating a warm, family-style atmosphere where every patient feels genuinely cared for. We treat our patients like family—and I approach each case with the same level of care and attention I would give my own children.
As a mother, I understand the importance of balancing busy schedules and respecting the time of every patient and their family. We tailor not only our orthodontic treatments, but also our scheduling to accommodate your lifestyle. By planning ahead and keeping appointments, we can typically offer convenient scheduling—including shorter visits like adjustments and checks during non-school hours.
Choosing the right orthodontist in Huntington Beach is an important decision, and I’m here to guide you every step of the way. During your complimentary consultation, I’ll provide all the information you need to confidently choose the best treatment for you or your child.

Treatment Options
Early Treatment
The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that children get an orthodontic evaluation at the age of 7 to check the growth and development of the teeth and jaws. If early treatment is indicated this is known as Phase I treatment.
Adult Treatment
Whether you have never had orthodontic treatment or have had some movement since your braces came off it's never too late to make a perfect smile. We offer several different cosmetic options.
Metal Braces
3D Scanner
No more goopy impressions. Our Itero intra-oral scanner creates a digital 3D model of your teeth.
Teen Treatment
The ideal age for full orthodontic treatment and bite correction is once the permanent teeth have erupted and growth is not yet complete.
Surgical Orthodontics
Some bites require a combination of orthodontics and orthognathic (jaw) surgery. We work closely with your oral surgeon to give you the best result possible.
Clear Braces
Retention
Retainers are for life. As long as you wear properly fitted retainers, you will have a beautiful smile forever. We offer clear and custom designed retainers.
