Dr. Maz Moshiri
D.M.D., M.S.
Like his father, Dr. Maz Moshiri has spent his life in service and study in the field of professional orthodontics. When it comes to clear aligners and Invisalign, there’s nothing he can’t do—or teach.
After graduating from MICDS in 1998, Dr. Maz enrolled in Emory University where he received his B.S. degree in Neurobehavioral Biology. He then moved on to the University of Louisville to obtain his Doctorate, Masters in Oral Biology, and Certificate of Advanced Training in Orthodontics.
In no time, Dr. Maz attained Diplomate status with the American Board of Orthodontics and became Associate Editor for the American Journal of Orthodontics, Dentofacial Orthopedics Clinical Companion, and a Fellow of the American College of Dentists, the International College of Dentists, and the Pierre Fauchard Academy.
Currently, he is a Clinical Assistant Professor in the orthodontic residency program at the Center for Advanced Dental Education at Saint Louis University. He manages the clear aligner curriculum and provides lectures on Invisalign.
He’s also a featured lecturer and “Ask the Expert” speaker for Align Technology, the makers of Invisalign, traveling internationally to educate orthodontists on the proper use of the appliance. He is co-founder of the Aligner Intensive Fellowship, an online residency that has educated thousands of doctors worldwide on the proper treatment planning and use of clear aligners.
