Care Philosophy

Dr. Vahab loves what he does, which is giving families in the Waldorf, St. Charles, Brandywine, Charles County and the Southern MD area new smiles that they will have for the rest of their lives. Dr. Vahab has a conservative approach and prefers, when possible, to begin orthodontics in children when all the adult teeth have erupted. Leveraging the most modern technology, Dr. Vahab transforms smiles with braces, invisalign, Invisalign teen, clear braces, and dentofacial orthopedics. Dr. Vahab believes that the medical/dental world is becoming increasingly rushed, which is compromising the doctor-patient relationship. In order to ensure that all of his patients feel comfortable and taken care of, Dr. Vahab is committed to being personally accessible to his patients by e-mail, text and cell phone evenings and weekends.

My daughter just completed her hair and a half in braces with Doctor Vahab. I appreciated his gentle approach, and our desire not to have any of my daughters teeth polled. Success! And now her smile is so incredibly straight and beautiful! Thank you so much, Dr Vahab!
