Meet Dr. Rohra

Dr. Rohra is considered one of the best orthodontists in Saint Louis, providing the highest quality orthodontic services for children, teens, and adults. Originally from Saint Louis, he is thrilled to be treating patients in his hometown.

Through advanced education at elite universities and extensive travel working with some of the brightest minds in orthodontics, Dr. Rohra has been able to achieve wonderful results across a very broad spectrum of patient cases. With a philosophy rooted in education, Dr. Rohra frequently lectures to doctors and their teams in addition to residents in the Department of Orthodontics at SIU School of Dental Medicine.

As a pillar of support within St. Louis, Dr. Rohra and his team have held partnerships with St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, Saint Louis Science Center, local elementary schools, and nonprofit organizations. A fundamental component of our mission is to give back to the community that has entrusted Olive Orthodontics as their Smile Specialist.

When he’s not transforming smiles, Dr. Rohra enjoys sharing time with his family, traveling, good food, fitness, and a great sports competition. When he isn’t cheering on the Blues, Cardinals, or St. Louis City SC, you may see Dr. Rohra and his doctor wife Diane with their daughter at one of the local parks.

Dr. Rohra believes that orthodontics is an exceptional profession that uniquely blends art and science, whereby he can positively impact his patients’ oral health, confidence, and self-worth. Dr. Rohra and his team at Olive Orthodontics are looking forward to creating beautiful and healthy smiles for you and your family!
