Dr. Dean Azzeh comes to Southern California from
Harvard University. His excellence in orthodontic
practice is a result of a four year rigorous training
program, twice the time frame an average orthodontist
is trained in. His training in orthodontics was
concurrently paralleled by his scholarly endeavors
which earned him a Doctor of Medical Sciences
Degree/Phd from Harvard Medical School. Upon graduation, he was awarded the most prestigious degree amongst his peers, the James Shaw award.
Dr. Azzeh is a board certified orthodontist, an honor earned by less than 25% of all orthodontists in the United States. To become a member of the American board of Orthodontics, one must pass rigorous tests and take re-certification exams. One must also strictly adhere to the highest standards of care and abide by all the laws and regulations of the board. A dentist who graduates from a speciality program becomes an orthodontic specialist who is eligible to become board certified through the voluntary examination process of the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO).
His philosophy accentuates the importance of
remaining at the forefront of the advancements in the
profession which he’s been contributing to by his
publications since 2002. He is the editor of the two
premier journals in the field. He is also an interviewer for Harvard College admissions.
Dr. Azzeh’s professional affiliations include: The
American Dental Association, American Association of
Orthodontics, the California Dental Association, the
Pacific Coast Society of Orthodontists and the Harvard
Society for the Advancement of Orthodontics.
Dr. Azzeh is committed to being a leader in his
profession. His relentless pursuit of excellence and his
use of special appliance systems and memory wires
allows for fewer visits and faster treatment for his
patients. His emphasis on keeping up-to-date with the
latest advancements in orthodontics and on patient
care and comfort enables him to provide the best
quality of care for his patients. |
