The Doctors
A beautiful smile can be a reflection of many things. Whether it boosts inner self-confidence or exudes outer positivity, it can change the way a person carries themselves day in and day out. At Camas Orthodontics, Dr. Gabriela Aranda & Dr. Tod Hardin take pride in being given the opportunity to contribute to a person’s overall experience. Our doctors are committed to helping their patients feel happy and confident with their brand-new smiles.

“The majority of her patients are referrals and previous patient’s families which is a testament to her belief in overwhelmingly delighting her patients.”
Dr. Gaby
Dr. Gaby started her dental career in 1998 at the prestigious New York University School of Dentistry. She graduated at the top of her class in 2002 earning national honors.
She specialized in Orthodontics at Oregon Health Science University and immediately knew that she had found a home here in the Northwest. Since 2007, Dr. Gaby has been creating beautiful smiles for children and adults in the Gresham and Camas area. As a mom she can appreciate the life of a busy parent and makes every effort to make treatment affordable and convenient for the families in the practice.
On her time away from the practice she enjoys spending time with her three daughters and husband. They all love taking in everything that the beautiful Northwest has to offer especially outdoor exercising and enjoying all the local culture.

Dr. Hardin
Dr. Hardin believes that a healthy sense of humor, a constant drive to learn new things, and a sincere desire to be involved and interested in the lives of his patients and staff pretty much sums up what Camas Orthodontics is all about!
Since 1996, Dr. Hardin has created beautiful smiles for thousands of families in the greater Portland and Vancouver areas. He comes from a long line of dental professionals, with his father and grandfather having impeccable careers in the dental field.
When he’s not at the office, he enjoys spending time with his family, dabbling with photography, anything to do with the outdoors, and yes, even showing up at the starting line of a few endurance events (whether he finishes or not is another story)!
“My father taught me from a very young age that always striving to do the right thing, in every circumstance, is not only a great way to practice orthodontics, but a great way to live your life and raise your family!”
