Dr. Oscar Reyna-Blanco is a Culver City Orthodontist living in West Hollywood, California.
“I’m a big believer that if you’re passionate about what you do, your family can see it & so can the community.”
Initiative is a cornerstone for Dr. Reyna-Blanco. He’s proud to have his dream career, and continues to be thankful to the people who helped foster his dreams into reality. Growing up with society’s barriers and strong family traditions, it took many influential mentors to guide him towards his continued education.

Family and hispanic culture is extremely important to him. He enjoys staying active and being outdoors.

Dr. Reyna-Blanco’s goal is to have an impact in people’s lives. As an orthodontist, he enjoys connecting with both children and adults, but truly values seeing the transformation and confidence their new smiles can bring. He sees the impact treatment has on their lives, and continues to feel honored and lucky at being a part of it.
