Dr. Jasleen Raina

Between beachfront traffic and inland ridges, old-timers still point to 3rd Avenue North as the spot where the quiet blocks swing back into whatever normal looks like on a Tuesday morning. Dr. Jasleen Raina, the neighborhood orthodontist, anchors this stretch with straightforward straightening—braces for teens through clear aligners for adults, plus early interceptive care for kids—all under one roof.

Her office sits where the sidewalk dips toward the Intracoastal, halfway between the train tracks and a cluster of dog runs. From metal brackets to lingual braces tucked behind the teeth, the setup favors function over flash; lingual appliances and self-ligating systems share shelf space with diagnostic records and progress models, all tucked into a single suite.

Patients pop in at staggered times, some clutching retainers still warm from the sterilizer, others still sunburned from the beach—straightening isn’t seasonal. Digital imaging checks alignment; minor adjustments fit into weekday slots without a week-long wait list, and the front desk keeps a spare wax kit near the door.

Add the address to any weekend beach loop, then dial (904) 246-6714 after the tide recedes. The latest map shows the closest route around the construction detours—here’s the link for directions: find your entry point.
