“Wow! On a holiday my kid had a very painful wire malfunction I couldn’t reach my child’s orthodontist. In desperation I reached out to Oakland Orthodontics and Dr. Rebong answered the phone and kindly, patiently and calmly listened to our situation and coached me through a remedy—so we ended up enjoying our Christmas instead of dealing with pain. This patience, generosity, and knowledge sharing for a kid who wasn’t even his patient was above and beyond what anyone could expect—but I got the sense that he really just wanted to be of help. Thank you so much Dr. Rebong!”

“5 Stars Isn’t Enough — We Love Our Orthodontist! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 I honestly can’t understand how this place has any bad reviews because our experience has been consistently wonderful. The office is always packed — and for good reason. Their schedule is full because they are that good, and people keep coming back. I trust them completely with my kids’ smiles. All three of my children have been treated here, and we are thrilled with their results. They genuinely care — not just about straight teeth, but about healthy development. The doctor is one of the kindest, most compassionate practitioners you’ll ever meet, and her staff is exceptional: welcoming, patient, thorough, and great with kids. One thing I appreciate so much about their approach is how thoughtful they are about timing. They don’t rush into extracting teeth before a child’s jaw has had a chance to grow and widen naturally — something that can be crucial for long‑term facial and dental health. While some practices might yank teeth too early, this doctor focuses on guiding jaw growth and making space intelligently so that the permanent teeth have room to come in correctly. That patient‑first philosophy — combined with real expertise — means healthier outcomes and happier kiddos. Beyond the clinical side, she does a lot of charity work, which says a lot about her heart and values. You don’t see doctors doing that unless they truly care about people beyond just business. If you’re looking for an orthodontist who is professional, patient‑centered, high‑quality, and genuinely lovely, this is your place. My kids feel comfortable and confident every visit, and we definitely recommend her to other families!”
