Practice Philosophy
Professional excellence – combining individualized service with the highest level of clinical care – is the hallmark of our practice. Keeping abreast of clinical innovations is a commitment orthodontist Dr. Nahid Maleki honors by taking far more than the minimum requirements in continuing education each year. She also regularly conducts research and has published results in well-regarded orthodontic journals. This involvement means that the clinical aspects of your treatment take advantage of the latest advances in the field of orthodontics.
Dr. Maleki understands that orthodontics isn’t just for aesthetic reasons. We strongly promote the importance of good dental health through orthodontics. Not only can orthodontics improve facial balance, appearance and bite, it can also increase one’s self-confidence.
Being a mother, Dr. Maleki also recognizes the value of maintaining a warm atmosphere where children and their parents, as well as adult patients, feel comfortable. Mothers often sit chairside in order to remain active partners in their child’s treatment. Developing such a partnership bodes well for satisfying results. Further testament to the practice is the fact that most of our patients are the friends or family members of other patients from whom they have been referred.
Exceptional orthodontic treatment with the highest level of personal attention is the ultimate goal of our practice here in Washington D.C. Recognizing that every patient’s case is unique, Dr. Maleki uses state-of-the-art technology to develop the best treatment plan for each individual case. Rest assured that Dr. Maleki will see you or your child at each visit and will personally perform most treatment procedures. We are committed to this philosophy and ensuring every patient’s treatment is successful.
