Dr. Hessam Rahimi is a Diplomate of The American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) and a distinguished orthodontist with extensive training and expertise. He completed his four-year orthodontic residency at Harvard University, where he also earned a Doctorate in Oral Biology in 2011. His journey in dentistry began in 1997 at Mashhad School of Dentistry, and since then, he has dedicated his career to transforming smiles and advancing the field of orthodontics.
In 2007, Dr. Rahimi narrowed his practice exclusively to orthodontics, beginning his specialized training at Harvard School of Dental Medicine. After graduating in 2011 as a certified orthodontist, he relocated to Dallas, Texas, where he has since treated thousands of patients, helping them achieve the beautiful and confident smiles they deserve. In 2016, he further expanded his expertise by earning an MBA from The University of Texas at Dallas, equipping him with advanced business and leadership skills to enhance patient care and practice management.
Pioneering Orthodontic Treatment & Digital Innovation
Dr. Rahimi is a world leader in Brava by Brius, being among the first certified providers and holding the highest number of treated cases globally using this revolutionary orthodontic technology.

Additionally, he collaborates with oral surgeons in the Greater Dallas area to provide comprehensive orthognathic (jaw) surgery solutions for patients requiring complex treatment plans.
Recognizing the importance of cutting-edge technology in orthodontics, Dr. Rahimi has established a state-of-the-art digital lab within his practice.
