Dr. Ruidan Ma

After moving between 9 cities in 3 different continents by herself, Dr. Ruidan Ma is excited to call Houston her new home. She graduated summa cum laude from Vanderbilt University double majoring in Chemistry and Spanish. The desire to create beautiful smiles for people in different backgrounds has led Dr. Ma to complete her Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from University of the Pacific in San Francisco, California, and her orthodontic certificate along with a Master of Science degree from University of Illinois Chicago. Dr. Ma is a board-certified orthodontist and has earned numerous dental awards. She has served as Class President during her residency and was selected to represent in the Diversity & Inclusion, as well as the Dental Health Committees in the Greater Houston Dental Society. She also loves giving back to the community not only through her day-to-day work, but also through volunteering events including "Give Kids A Smile".

Outside of dentistry, Dr. Ma loves cooking, dancing, playing tennis and trying out new restaurants with her family.
