Cindy Tran
Dr. Cindy Tran

Dr. Cindy Tran is a board-certified orthodontic specialist known for her enthusiasm and compassionate approach to patient care. She began her dental journey on the sunny shores of Southern California, where she graduated with honors from the University of California, San Diego.

Determined to explore the world beyond her hometown, she moved to Pittsburgh for dental school, traded flip-flops for snow boots, and graduated at the top of her class with academic honors. She ultimately found her way to beautiful Missouri for her orthodontic and dentofacial orthopedics residency, earning her master’s degree and specialty certificate from St. Louis University.

Dr. Tran’s enduring love for puzzles and art translates seamlessly into her passion for orthodontics, allowing her to approach treatment planning with both thoughtfulness and creativity. Her patient-centered approach comes from her belief that exceptional care should always consider the patient as an individual, and that establishing a healthy occlusion is critical to maintaining a healthy life.

Armed with determination and a good winter coat, Dr. Tran can be found enjoying her community and walking the streets of Minneapolis and St. Paul any time of year. She loves exploring the city, nearby parks, and Minnesota’s many beautiful lakes.

“I could not be happier with Lakeside Orthodontics. My Invisalign experience was fast, easy, and effective; and they worked within my budget. I am 65+ and was hesitant to go in but I am so happy I did. One of the things that most impressed me was that everyone in the office was sincerely nice. All in all a great experience.”
