Dr. Rick Escobar

Dr. Rick grew up in Tampa, Florida, and graduated from Jesuit High School. He went on to attend Southern Methodist University, where he earned a bachelor's degree in chemistry and biology.

Dr. Rick received his DMD from Nova Southeastern University College of Dental Medicine, graduating in the top 5 percent of his class. He then moved to Colorado to complete his orthodontic residency at the University of Colorado, where he earned his Certificate in Orthodontics and a Master of Science in Dentistry.

After more than a decade away, Dr. Rick returned home to Tampa, where he has been practicing in the area for the past three years. He is excited to continue caring for patients as part of Abdoney Orthodontics.

On a fun note, Dr. Rick is engaged to one of our fellow orthodontists at the practice, Dr. Marina. The two will be getting married this November and are thrilled to be building both their life and their careers together at our offices.

Dr. Rick is passionate about providing high quality, personalized orthodontic care and building long term relationships with his patients and families. He looks forward to welcoming both new and existing patients and continuing to serve the community he is proud to call home!
