About Shivam Mehta

For Dr. Shivam Mehta, orthodontics has always come down to one thing: making a difference in people’s lives. “I love orthodontics because it can make such a meaningful difference in a patient’s life. They smile more, they laugh without hesitation, and you begin to see their confidence and their personality shine through.” Patient care is at the heart of everything Dr. Mehta does. He believes excellent orthodontic care starts with listening to patients, understanding what matters to them, and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for throughout their treatment. Dr. Mehta genuinely enjoys getting to know his patients and their families. He loves the energy and excitement kids bring to the office, enjoys connecting with teenagers and seeing their confidence grow throughout treatment, and loves helping adults achieve the smile they have always wanted. He takes the time to listen and genuinely enjoys helping patients understand their treatment, their options, and what to expect along the way. He believes patients should feel informed, comfortable, and confident in their care. Dr. Mehta completed his orthodontic specialty training at the University of Connecticut, where he earned his Certificate in Orthodontics and Master of Dental Science degree. He continued his pursuit of excellence by becoming a Board Certified Orthodontist through the American Board of Orthodontics. He also serves as Program Director of the Orthodontic Residency Program at Texas A&M University College of Dentistry, where he helps train and mentor the next generation of orthodontists. Dr. Mehta has a particular interest in palatal expansion and MARPE. He has published extensively on these treatments and frequently delivers lectures to the dental and orthodontic community at major national and international conferences. His involvement in research and education allows him to stay closely connected to advances in orthodontics and bring evidence based care to his patients.
