Dr. Alexander Dao is a dedicated orthodontist who comes from a proud family tradition of general dentists and dental specialists. His father is a general dentist, his wife and younger brother are fellow orthodontists, his older brother is a pediatric dentist, and his in-laws are also general dentists. Dr. Dao combines clinical excellence with a deep understanding of the patient experience to create beautiful, healthy smiles.

Dr. Dao earned his Doctor of Dental Medicine degree from Temple University’s Kornberg School of Dentistry. He later earned a Master of Science in Oral Biology and completed his specialized orthodontic training at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas.
