Prosthodontist in Weston
Get to Know
Dr. Alaa Alwazzan
Dr. Alwazzan discovered his passion for dentistry at just 10 years old after his dentist showed him the transformation of a family member's broken tooth before and after treatment. While attending Tufts University School of Dental Medicine, he had the honor of being trained by the late Dr. Lloyd Miller and Dr. William Heggerick, gaining invaluable experience and mentorship throughout his education. He was later chosen to take over ownership of the practice, continuing its legacy of high-quality, patient-focused care. Today, he still loves the opportunity to work with his hands each day while helping patients restore their smiles, confidence, and oral health, while building lasting relationships within the community.

Today, he is a board-certified Diplomate of the American Board of Prosthodontics and a Fellow of the American College of Prosthodontists, with a focus on esthetic dentistry and dental implants.
