I graduated from Oregon Health & Science University School of Dentistry in June of 2003. I then attended Kings County Hospital/ Down State Medical Center in Brooklyn, NY for a one-year General Practice Residency (GPR) from July 2003 to July 2004. I obtained my undergraduate degree from Oregon State University. Ive been in private practice since finishing my GPR in July of 2004. I owned my first practice in Brooklyn, NY from 2005-2011. I treated people from my immediate community and the practice enjoyed high success.
In 2011 My wife and I made the decision to leave NY City and relocate to Maryland as we searched for a new place to raise our first two daughters. Upon arriving in Ellicott City, Maryland I started a new position as a general dentist at a large group practice in Columbia Maryland. I practiced there full-time for several years. In 2015 I started a part-time dental practice in Towson, MD.
In the process, I met many wonderful people- both patients and colleagues from the dental profession. The practice grew nicely, but the commute was difficult, especially with the arrival of our third daughter. I decided to sell the practice in early 2019 so I can be closer to home. A few months after I found this practice and I cant be more pleased with the area or location.
I look forward to treating patients and building a successful practice here for years to come. I enjoy all aspects of restorative dentistry and I believe in the team approach to delivering quality care to our patients.
With more and more college-age students and adults deciding that they want a straighter smile, its no surprise that unique orthodontic solutions such as Invisalign have become one of the most popular ways to correct misaligned and crooked smiles. This alternative makes it possible to get the smile you want without having to wear the standard brackets and wires on your teeth. Dr. Mazen Chehab has helped patients of all ages get the beautiful, straight smiles they want with the help of Invisalign.
About InvisalignInvisalign is a clear orthodontic system that uses clear, removable aligners to shift teeth into their ideal position rather than using brackets and wires. Each aligner that we provide you have been specially crafted based on imaging data that we collect from taking digital impressions of your mouth.
We also use state-of-the-art computer software to map out your treatment plan down to every detailed tooth movement. This information is what we provide to an Invisalign-approved lab, so they can create your very own set of aligners.
Once your aligners have been made, you will come back into our office so Dr. Chehab can fit you with the very first set and answer any questions you might have. During this visit, our team will also provide you with detailed instructions that will most likely include,
Since Invisalign technology is so advanced and is constantly improving year after year, this means that our patients also spend less time at our practice for checkups. Since Invisalign doesnt require any adjustments like traditional braces do, this means that most patients can wait about six weeks before coming into our practice, so we can check the progress of their treatment.
Candidates for InvisalignInvisalign is a great option for older teens and adults who want to get braces but also want a more discreet treatment that wont be immediately visible to colleagues, friends, and classmates. We understand that nothing is more important than feeling and looking your best, which is why Invisalign offers the best of both worlds. You have the freedom of clear, removable braces while still having the option to fix crowding, crookedness, gaps between teeth, and other bad bites.
