Our team at Carter & Higgins Orthodontics is here to make you smile! Here are some fun facts about one of our clinical assistants, Mel.

Where were you born? Mexico

Why did you chose to be in the orthodontic field? “Honestly, I never thought I would be in ortho, but I was asked to be an orthodontic assistant so I thought I would give it a try. I loved it, and now I couldn’t see myself doing anything else. I love that we can change people’s lives with a smile.”

What is your favorite movie to watch? “I don’t have a favorite movie. I like every genre- funny, scary, comedy, and action.”

If you could travel any where, where would it be? “Anywhere where the weather is in the 70’s-80’s and on a beautiful beach.”

What is your favorite place to eat in Tulsa? “I’ve recently been exploring downtown Tulsa. There is so much going on downtown and I live close by, so it is perfect.”
