Dr. Rana Barakat became an orthodontist to fulfill her lifelong dream of creating beautiful smiles for her patients. Her passion for orthodontic care originated in her childhood, because she needed to have extensive work on her own teeth. When her treatment finished, Dr. Barakat became so elated looking at her new, beautiful teeth in the mirror that she was inspired to become an orthodontist to help others feel the same way.
To this day, she has always believed that a beautiful smile is essential to achieving oral health as well as confidence. While Barakat Orthodontics uses the most innovative orthodontic technology available, it is Dr. Barakat and her team’s personal touch that really makes patients feel so special. It is her priority to provide excellent orthodontic treatment, ensure optimal clinical results, and at the same provide a warm, positive experience for patients.
Dr. Barakat completed her specialty training in Orthodontics at the prestigious Eastman Dental Center, University of Rochester, New York, in 1996. She attended the University of Tennessee, College of Dentistry in 1990 and received her Doctorate of Dental Surgery (D.D.S.) with honors in 1994. She attended Vanderbilt University for her undergraduate studies in 1987. Dr. Barakat regularly participates in continuing education programs to stay current with leading treatment techniques.
Dr. Barakat is a Board- Certified Orthodontist, an achievement held by only 25% of all orthodontists. She has been featured in several magazines, including Health and Beauty, I am Modern, and Northern Virginia Magazine. Dr. Barakat has been voted “Top Orthodontist” by her peers in Health and Beauty Magazine (2006, 2007, 2008), Washingtonian Magazine, Top Orthodontist (consecutively 2009 – 2018), Northern Virginia Magazine (consecutively 2009 – 2018) and Virginia Living Magazine (consecutively 2011 – 2018). Most recently, Dr. Barakat has been voted a “Top Dentist” in the Nation by topDentist.
In her free time, Dr. Barakat volunteers at area schools for career day and dental health education, and she enjoys spending time with her husband Jerry, and their two children, Hope and Paul.

Patient Reviews
“Wonderful experience, friendly staff, comfortable waiting room. The kids were excited to come in for appointments. I would definitely recommend this location.”
“Very happy with my daughter’s smile! The office is nice and they are always friendly and punctual about the appointments! We couldn’t be happier with Dr. Barakat!”
“Invisalign process worked great. Cool technology. Appointments were fast and easy.”
“My experience with Dr Barakat and her staff have been so great, I told my family that my little brother HAD to come to her office for his braces journey. Dr Barakat has helped rectify some wrongs caused by other poor practices and has always had my full confidence in my post-ortho treatment. I was not 100% happy with my ortho results with another doctor, so I came straight here and she helped build a plan that worked for me and my particular situation. Today, I am picking up my new Invisalign aligners and ready to fix everything that I was upset with before!!! I tried another aligner company🥴they were beyond THICK and uncomfortable, my top lip would always get stuck on them… Invisalign with Dr Barakat? BARELY FEEL THEM!!! Love Dr Barakat, love her staff, would recommend to any looking to start a braces journey, or fix a previous one😊”
“Awesome service and crew… Dr Barakat is amazing. Beautiful atmosphere.”
