Our Orthodontists

Dr. Alex Romero, DDS

Orthodontist

Dr. Romero knew from a young age that orthodontics was the path he wanted to pursue. Drawn to the combination of art, science, and problem-solving, he found a profession that allows him to create meaningful changes in people’s lives while building lasting relationships with his patients. For him, a smile is more than just an aesthetic result. It is an opportunity to help someone feel healthier, happier, and more confident.

After earning his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from the University of Zulia in Maracaibo, Venezuela, Dr. Romero completed his orthodontic residency at the University of Oklahoma in 2013. He is an ABO-Certified Orthodontist and has spent his career dedicated to both patient care and advancing the profession. In addition to practicing orthodontics, he spent 10 years teaching orthodontic residents and dental students at the University of Oklahoma, and he has contributed to orthodontic literature through published research and a book chapter.

Outside of the office, Dr. Romero enjoys exploring new places, discovering different cultures, and spending time with his partner, Misty. He stays active through volleyball and curling, a sport he was introduced to by one of his patients and now helps promote throughout Oklahoma. He also enjoys experimenting with new recipes, creating cocktails and mocktails, and making the most of time with family and friends.

Located at our North OKC Orthodontics office, Dr. Romero combines decades of dental experience with a passion for personalized orthodontic care, helping patients take the next step toward a smile they feel proud to share.
