Meet the Doctor Guiding Your Smile Journey
Hi, I’m Steven Dent. My approach to orthodontics is rooted in compassion, precision, and a genuine commitment to patient education. My goal is to create a welcoming, relaxed environment where patients of all ages feel right at home — whether it’s their first visit or they’re counting down the days until their braces come off.
Every Smile Matters
We Treat the Whole Family
From a child’s first orthodontic visit to an adult finally deciding it is their turn — we are here to brighten your smile. We serve families across Ponte Vedra Beach, Nocatee, Beacon Lakes, St. Augustine and Jacksonville with braces, Angel Clear Aligners and two-phase treatment for younger kids.
Early orthodontic care can prevent bigger problems down the road. We make the experience fun, low-pressure, and something kids actually look forward to.
Teen years are the most common time for orthodontic treatment — and we make sure the experience is one they feel good about, not just something they endure.
Many of our adult patients started as parents watching their kids get treated. One look around the office and they decided it was their turn. We are ready when you are.
The Right Path for Your Smile
We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all orthodontics. We believe in getting it right for you, your schedule, and your goals.
From traditional metal to self-ligating Damon Ultima brackets, braces remain one of the most precise and effective ways to achieve a lasting, healthy smile.
Nearly invisible, removable, and custom-fit to your smile. Angel Aligners offer a flexible, discreet path to straighter teeth — ideal for all age groups
From palatal expanders and two-phase treatment to early orthodontic care and habit appliances — we address the full picture of your family’s orthodontic health.

Do you want to finish treatment with your clear aligners on time? We always recommend 20-22 hours wearing them a day. 😁
At Sunrise, we specialize in clear aligners and braces for kids, teens and adults. Clear aligners provide a nice discreet option and allow you to eat the same way, and brush and floss your teeth easier. They rely HEAVILY on patient compliance.
If you’re doing limited treatment lasting 6-12 months or comprehensive treatment lasting up to 2+ years with clear aligners, you still have to wear them the same amount of time during the day.
A beautiful smile is about more than straight teeth. It’s about how your teeth fit together, how your bite functions, how your gums and supporting structures stay healthy, and how everything works together for a lifetime of smiles.
At Sunrise Orthodontics, we look beyond what you see in the mirror. Because a great smile isn’t just about how it looks but how it works too! 🌅💙

Young children don’t have the manual dexterity to brush their teeth. We want your teeth healthy before starting any orthodontic treatment.
As a dentist and now orthodontist, my kids’ teeth and oral healing is really important. I learned the skills in dental school to help them have success. I want your kids to have healthy teeth too! 🦷🪥
