About Touni Orthodontics
Many people feel self-conscious about their teeth, hiding them while smiling or speaking. Board-certified orthodontist Walied Touni, DDS, MSD, believes everyone should have a smile they're proud of. At Touni Orthodontics in Sunnyvale, California, dream smiles become realities.
Dr. Touni earned his Bachelor in Dental Surgery, graduating with honors, from Cairo University in Egypt, where he also completed a residency in general dentistry. He continued his education there with three more years studying prosthodontics.
After moving to the United States in 1998, Dr. Touni opened a dental surgery center in San Jose, California. But his true passion was in orthodontics, and he sold his practice to pursue a fellowship in craniofacial genetics and a master’s degree in orthodontics and dentistry, all from the University of the Pacific in Stockton, California. Following this, he opened Touni Orthodontics in Silicon Valley.
Dr. Touni built Touni Orthodontics on the philosophy that science and technology go hand in hand. The team uses the latest dental technologies during treatment, whether they’re providing children’s orthodontics services, treating TMJ pain, creating clear aligners, correcting an overbite, or monitoring impacted teeth.
That focus on technology also means that individuals can enjoy more efficient scheduling, reduced care times, and an all-around better experience at every visit.
The team at Touni Orthodontics places health and safety at the forefront of all they do. They invest in state-of-the-art technologies like the Mocom Sterilizer - B Futura, the Sterisil® Straw V2, and the Safe-Flo™ saliva ejector in their drive to create an immaculate and sanitary environment.
Put dental health first when you partner with Dr. Touni and the team at Touni Orthodontics. Call today or book a consultation online.
