Meet Dr. Tarek Abousheta: Diving Deep into Smiles and Service
Dr. Tarek Abousheta, an orthodontist based in Irvine, California, brings a thoughtful, relationship-driven approach to his practice. A graduate of the University of the Pacific (UOP) orthodontic residency program, Dr. Abousheta is passionate about creating confident smiles while also building strong, lasting connections with his patients and the wider community.
“I’ve always loved building rapport,” he shares. “Whether it’s with patients or with the people around me, that connection is at the heart of what I do.”
His commitment to service extends beyond the clinic. Through his involvement with the California Association of Orthodontists, Dr. Abousheta seeks to make a meaningful contribution to the profession he loves. “I serve the CAO to have a positive impact on the profession,” he says simply—but powerfully.
Outside of orthodontics, Dr. Abousheta has a passion for scuba diving—a hobby that reflects his adventurous spirit and his appreciation for depth, both literally and figuratively.
With a focus on relationships, growth, and giving back, Dr. Abousheta exemplifies the values that drive the CAO community forward. We’re proud to have him among the dedicated professionals shaping the future of orthodontics in California.
