Dr. Rafaele Desire Brooks is a board-certified orthodontist with a distinguished academic background, advanced training in dento-facial orthopedics, and a passion for delivering confident, healthy smiles through innovative orthodontic care. Known for her meticulous attention to detail and patient-first approach, Dr. Brooks brings a wealth of global expertise to the Coastland Dental team.
With a career rooted in academic excellence and clinical innovation, Dr. Brooks continues to redefine what’s possible in modern orthodontics.
Dr. Brooks completed her dental education at the prestigious University of René Descartes in Paris, France, one of Europe’s most elite dental institutions. Graduating at the top of her class, she went on to complete a rigorous three-and-a-half-year post-graduate residency in orthodontics and dentofacial orthopedics (C.E.C.S.M.O)—earning the title of Certified Orthodontic Specialist in France.
Her training encompassed a comprehensive understanding of craniofacial growth, skeletal correction, and complex tooth movement, giving her a deep foundation in both functional and cosmetic orthodontic care for patients of all ages.
As a standout student, Dr. Brooks was awarded a competitive scholarship to travel to Beverly Hills and study lingual orthodontics directly from its inventor. Immersed in one of the most technique-sensitive disciplines in orthodontics, she quickly became a rising expert in the field.
Her scholarship experience culminated in her co-authoring the first-ever operational manual on Lingual Orthodontics, a groundbreaking publication that continues to shape how this technique is taught and practiced around the world.
Today, she brings that expertise to Coastland Dental, where patients seeking invisible braces behind the teeth can benefit from her unmatched precision and knowledge.
Dr. Brooks believes that orthodontic treatment is more than just straightening teeth—it’s about transforming confidence, improving oral function, and creating harmony in facial structure. She takes a customized approach to every case, listening closely to her patients’ goals and designing treatment plans that align with their lifestyle, age, and dental needs.
From early interceptive orthodontics to complex adult smile makeovers, her gentle manner and advanced skill set allow patients to achieve their ideal outcomes with minimal discomfort and maximum results.
At Coastland Dental, Dr. Brooks works alongside a team of experienced general dentists, prosthodontists, and implant specialists. Her role as an orthodontic expert ensures patients receive collaborative, full-scope care, especially in cases involving multidisciplinary treatment plans such as:

She remains committed to continuing education and attends advanced training seminars worldwide to stay at the forefront of the ever-evolving field of orthodontics.
