I started working at YSO as a high school co-op student and I never left. The interaction with our patients and the family-like atmosphere with our team is unmatched. I consider it an honor to work here. When Im not at work, Im most likely traveling and spending time with my family.
I started my dental career at the Career Prep Center in 1994. I love the hands-on aspect of orthodontics. In my free time, I am a reiki master and I enjoy crafting, making jewelry and collecting crystals.
I was born in Iraq and moved to the U.S. in 2012. I have been at YSO for almost 2 years and I couldnt be happier. Treating patients and helping to perfect their smiles is my passion. When Im not at work, Im usually spending time with family, friends and my dog, Bruno.
Ive been at YSO for over 30 years. Interacting with our patients and watching the change in their smile is what keeps me going. Our office is like one big family, so coming to work every day is truly a joy. When Im not at work, Im either traveling the world, hanging out with family and friends or riding on the Harley.
I have been with Your Smile Orthodontics since 1989 and loved every day of it. Working with this very family-oriented staff makes each day so fun. This staff truly cares about each patient as an individual and treats them as such. When not working, I enjoy traveling with my family, especially trips to Charlotte, North Carolina to spend time with my new grandson!
Here at Your Smile Orthodontics, we are committed to achieving total patient satisfaction. We use only the highest quality orthodontic materials. With better technology comes greater treatment efficiency, improved aesthetics, comfort, and results. Dr. Daniel Gross and his staff continually work to maintain the highest level of education, training, and expertise.
At Your Smile Orthodontics, we are proud premier providers for ALL PPO insurances and some DMOs. We are committed to providing our patients with the highest level of care at the most affordable treatment fee.
Its more important than ever to brush and floss regularly when you have braces, so the teeth and gums are healthy during orthodontic treatment. Patients who do not keep their teeth clean may require more frequent visits to the dentist for a professional cleaning. Adults who have a history of gum disease should also see a periodontist during orthodontic treatment. Watch the video below on the proper care of braces during orthodontic treatment.
What can you eat? Lets talk about what you shouldnt eat! For the first day or so, stick to soft foods. Avoid tough meats, hard breads, and raw vegetables. Before long, youll be able to bite a cucumber again. But youll need to protect your orthodontic appliances when you eat for as long as youre wearing braces.
When you get your braces on, you may feel general soreness in your mouth and teeth may be tender to biting pressures for 3 5 days. Take Tylenol or whatever you normally take for headache or discomfort. The lips, cheeks and tongue may also become irritated for one to two weeks as they toughen and become accustomed to the braces. We will supply wax to put on the braces in irritated areas to lessen discomfort.
To successfully complete orthodontic treatment, the patient must work together with the orthodontist. The teeth and jaws can only move toward their corrected positions if the patient consistently wears the rubber bands or other appliances as prescribed. Lack of cooperation following instructions and damaged appliances lengthen the treatment time so please follow instructions.

The Huntington Woods office is so amazing. They will work with you no matter what your circumstances are. They truly care about their patients! The doctor is amazing! I love the empathy they show and how they are willing to go above and beyond to assist you. My daughter and I wouldn't have liked to go anywhere else. We've been truly blessed coming here.

Dr Gross and the entire staff were a pleasure throughout our entire experience. The staff is friendly, and Dr Gross is kind and personable. The practice was also very accommodating when in need of an emergency visit (brackets falling off, wires coming loose, etc). The cost was afforable and the monthly payments were a wonderful option for our family. My son was a difficult case because of an extreme overbite and gaps between his top teeth. I was truly amazed at the outcome; my son's teeth are absolutely beautiful. He has more confidence now, and always has smile on his face. I would highly recommend Dr Gross and "Your Smile Orthodontics".

We love Your Smile Orthodontics! We have visited the Huntington Woods and Clinton Twp locations and have been so pleased not only with Dr. Gross but also the office staff. They have so helpful with any questions or concerns, always go above and beyond with scheduling and have taken special care recently to accommodate my child and her anxiety. Most importantly, her teeth are looking fantastic! 100% would recommend to anyone in the area looking for braces.

The staff is AMAZING!! They are courteous, friendly, and eager to help! Case in point: My son's braces were bothering him and we were out of wax. They went out of their way to assure that I got what he needed! The office runs promptly and your appointment time is when you will be seen! Professional and friendly! I have used many orthodontists for other children and this practice puts the other to shame!! Really the best out there!!!

This Office is AMAZING !!! Ms.Donna scheduled my appointment she was very upbeat, friendly, helpful and informative. There was no hassle with paperwork because it was sent to my email and completed off of my phone. As if that wasn't enough I met with Dr.Gross for my consultation and his bedside manner was lovely. He wanted to do whatever was going to make me happy. I won't even have to wait days or weeks to get my retainers. I highly recommend Huntington Woods Orthodontics.
