Why He Became an Orthodontist
At the young age of 17, Dr. Alkhoury was first exposed to orthodontics when he learned that his older sister was going to need braces. After they were placed, he could see how her smile transformed over time. He quickly realized it was for the better as she started to become more talkative, social, and confident overall, especially after completing treatment. This was a life-changing moment for him and it’s exactly what motivated him to pursue orthodontics himself. This way, he could help others achieve the same positive experience and he couldn’t be happier with this decision to this day.
