Hi my name is Rebecca. I’ve been with Affiliated Orthodontics going on 2 years and I love creating beautiful smiles!! I was born and raised in Toronto, Canada. In 2014 my husband and I relocated to sunny Arizona where I found my passion for orthodontics. I started my career as a dental assistant almost 20 years ago and over time transitioned into the treatment coordinating position. I’m one of the first smiles you’ll meet when visiting our office and I strive to make the New Patient Exam an exciting experience!!! I love teeth, love to smile and love helping our patients journey into perfecting their smiles a smooth and easy process.
