Dr. Rahimi is also a proud alumnus of The University of Texas at Dallas where he received his Master of Business Administration (MBA) degree in 2016.
Dr. Rahimi is one of the first certified Mechanodontics (Brius) providers in the world and he is also certified to provide clear aligner appliances such as Invisalign® and Clear Correct® to treat patients that don’t like the appearance and discomfort of regular conventional braces and he is also a certified Incognito® lingual braces provider; these braces are attached to the back of the teeth, making them invisible to the public eye and perfect for adults and professionals who seek discretion.
Dr. Rahimi performs orthodontic treatment for all ages, children, and adults, including medically compromised patients with conditions such as developmental anomalies, cleft lip, and palate, autism, and a multitude of genetic disorders. Dr. Rahimi also treats patients that require jaw surgery (aka. Orthognathic Surgery) in collaboration with oral surgeons in the Greater Dallas area.
Dr. Rahimi has published books on subjects of root canal therapy, infection control in dental practices, and a guidebook for hygienists, as well as a dozen articles in peer-reviewed dental journals, an effort that is continuing until today. Dr. Rahimi holds several patents related to a new orthodontic bracket system that is aimed to reduce treatment time and number of visits on one side and increase the quality of orthodontic treatment on the other.
Dr. Rahimi and his wife Dr. Niloo have two children, AvA Bella and Arman Sam. Dr. Rahimi’s hobbies include going to the gym and playing some basketball and Tennis when he finds the extra time. The rest of his time is well spent online on activities such as blogging and participating in online orthodontic forums as much as possible in addition to the time spent on social media, friends, and well, movies!
