Dr. Amanda was born and raised in Fountain, Colorado. After graduating from Fountain-Fort Carson High School, she attended Southwestern University in Georgetown, Texas for her bachelor’s degree, majoring in both Spanish and Biology. She then returned to Colorado to attend the University of Colorado School of Dental Medicine where she graduated with her Doctor of Dental Surgery in 2017. During dental school she met and married one of her classmates, Dr. Adam Vega. Ironically enough, she and Adam lived only about a mile apart from each other while they were growing up. Timing really is everything!
Although Dr. Amanda loved practicing as a general dentist, she knew her passion was in orthodontics, and she worked diligently to be accepted into orthodontics residency at A.T. Still University in Mesa, AZ in 2020. She graduated in 2022, and she and her husband are so excited to be back in Colorado Springs!
Dr. Amanda and her husband welcomed a son, Archer, in the fall of 2023, and he really is the apple of their eyes! Dr. Amanda also loves dogs, and she has a chiweenie named Finn and a silver lab named Elsa. Like any native Coloradan, Dr. Amanda loves the outdoors. She enjoys hiking, camping, and spending time with her family and friends.
Dr. Amanda believes that orthodontics is much more than just straightening teeth. Improving someone’s smile can truly be life-changing, and she takes great pride in building relationships with each of her patients and their families in order to provide them with the best possible care. She works hard to ensure that all of her patients achieve the smile they have always wanted and deserve!
Dr. Amanda is a Diplomate of the American Board of Orthodontics (Board Certified Orthodontist) and is affiliated with the American Association of Orthodontists.
