Morning tensionThe jaw jointThe smileThe biteMore than straight teeth
The smile is the visible part. Underneath it are the bite and supporting gum and bone, the jaw and joint, and the tension you wake up with — and they get looked at here too, properly.

Two offices: shoreline or skyline
The Santa Monica office holds the imaging equipment, including the panoramic X-ray, so that is where X-rays are taken. Patients seen Downtown can be seen in Santa Monica for complimentary imaging.
Come see it in person — the coffee is decent and the visit is free.

As an adult I really wasn’t sure what I needed. After a thorough exam and a conversation about options we decided on a great approach. A few months later and after timely adjustments I have the changes that I saw reversed and I am super happy. Everyone here is wonderful and kind!!! Thank you SM Orthodontics!!!!

Dr Khan and team are amazing! Had an easy and smooth experience getting aligners here before my wedding and so glad I did!
Julia K. · Google review · Santa Monica
I have been going to Santa Monica Orthodontics since I was in elementary school and when my teeth were crooked and had gigantic gaps. To say that Dr. Khan and Roger fixed my teeth would be an understatement and I am truly grateful that they were able to help me out as efficiently, kindly, and effectively as they could throughout all these years. Thank you!

Five steps, in order
Rehana Khan, DDS, MS
My job is to evaluate you and explain all of your treatment options. It’s important that we find the option that works for you.
Master's in Orthodontics from Loma Linda University, where she is currently clinical faculty in the Department of Orthodontics. She opened this practice in 2009 after working in Harbor City for four years with Dr. Richard Simms — 17 years of children, teens, and adults, one treatment plan at a time.
Dr. Khan is the only doctor in the practice, and she treats every patient herself.
The easiest way to know if she's your kind of doctor: come meet her.
