Dr. Trevan Samp "Dr. Trev”

Trevan and his wife, Ashley, moved from Denver, Colorado to the Lowcountry in May 2020. Their daughter, Bowie, and son, Webster, were both born at East Cooper Hospital, and they have absolutely loved life in Charleston. Ever the adrenaline junkie, Dr. Trev traded in weekly mountain skiing and hiking "14ers" for beaches, boating and kite surfing (You can probably find him struggling to learn this new hobby at Sullivan's Island on a windy weekend!).

Dr. Trev played football (Wide Receiver) for Brown University and was a member of the 2008 Ivy League Championship team. After college, Dr. Trev attended another Ivy school (UPenn) to become a dentist!

Since graduation from Orthodontics residency at University of the Pacific (San Francisco) in 2016, Dr. Trev worked in NJ, PA, and CO before landing in South Carolina. Dr. Trev is board certified by the American Board of Orthodontics after strict case presentations and in-person exams. Dr. Trev is constantly taking CE courses to better treatment efficiencies and is motivated by how technology is changing the game in orthodontics.

Dr. Trev started High Tide Orthodontics from scratch in January 2023! Born and raised in Green Bay, Wisconsin, Dr. Trev is a huge Cheeshead (Go Pack Go). The Mount Pleasant community has been so welcoming!
