Orthodontics
Richard Shin, DDS, MS
Shin Orthodontics
Drs. Richard and Debra Shin run Shin Orthodontics in Potomac’s Cabin John Village, a family practice featured in Bethesda Magazine. Dr. Richard Shin earned his dental degree at the University of Maryland and completed his orthodontic residency at Vanderbilt University; both doctors are certified by the American Board of Orthodontics — a credential held by a minority of orthodontists.
Why patients choose Dr. Shin
The Shins are Invisalign Platinum Plus providers and are personally involved in every step of each patient’s treatment rather than handing visits to assistants. Patients repeatedly highlight on-time appointments, a spotless office, and clear explanations of the plan.
Practice focus
Invisalign and clear aligners, braces for children and teens, and adult orthodontics, with a strong family-practice emphasis.
