I have been an orthodontist for over 25 years. I currently practice out of Tampa, Florida, where I manage my three Farina Orthodontic Specialists practices (Wesley Chapel, North Tampa, and South Tampa). To date, I've treated more than 25,000 smiles in the Tampa Bay Area, from children as young as six to adults as wise as 82. Whether caring for a patient in the office or donating my time to a child in the community, there is no greater joy than seeing a happy, healthy smile I helped make come true.I received my undergraduate degree from Boston College with a BS in Biology. After undergraduate, I attended the University of Pennsylvania, where I completed my Doctorate of Dental Medicine. Post-graduation, I received advanced orthodontic training from New York University and in-depth training on the integrated diagnosis and treatment of TMJ. I am deeply committed to continuing my education to stay up-to-date on the latest breakthroughs and innovations in the industry. Annually, I attend more than 80 hours of professional seminars to bring the most advanced diagnosis, treatment, and technology to my colleagues. I have also served on research teams at New York University and the University of Pennsylvania to find new and better ways to solve orthodontic problems. Additionally, I am proud to share that I was voted the Top Orthodontist in Tampa by my dental peers in the last several years. In 2023, I am the #1 volume Invisalign provider in Florida and rank in the top 10 nationwide.
