Our Orthodontist

Dr. Alex Rivera, DMD MS

Board-certified orthodontist and Invisalign Diamond Provider. 14 years transforming smiles across all ages — from first teeth to adult corrections.

Background

The Doctor Who
Loves This Work

Dr. Rivera completed his undergraduate degree in biology at UCLA before earning his DMD from Harvard School of Dental Medicine and his MS in Orthodontics from the University of Washington — widely regarded as one of the best orthodontic programs in the country. He returned west to build a practice he'd be proud to send his own children to.

He became an Invisalign Diamond Provider within his first 5 years of practice — a milestone that requires exceptional treatment volume and completion rates — and has maintained that designation every year since.

"I became an orthodontist because I saw what happened to a shy kid's confidence when their smile changed. I wanted to do that. I still feel that way about every single case."

— Dr. Alex Rivera, DMD MS
