We create beautiful smiles
Here are a handful of the 10000+ cases that Dr. Tajaddod has performed for our Bay Area Residents.
Case of the Year
Our "Case of the Year" features a 10-year-old patient with severe dental crowding, impacted canines, Class III malocclusion, and sleep apnea. The parents strongly preferred a non-extraction approach, despite other orthodontists recommending extractions due to crowding. Through a carefully planned treatment involving a palatal expander, partial braces, and Invisalign, we successfully achieved ideal teeth alignment, ideal Class I occlusion, and corrected the child’s breathing issues. The non-extraction approach not only preserved all teeth, but also significantly improved the patient’s smile, profile, and overall oral health.
