Dr. Akram H Shouhayib

Since 1989, I've helped hundreds of people in the Washington metro area feel better about their smiles. I believe my easy-going personality combined with my deep passion for the dental profession has caused the tremendous growth in our practice. I really love my patients. It's a joy for me to come in and help them.
I graduated from the University of Detroit in 1983 with a master’s degree in orthodontics. I've been an active member of the American Association of Orthodontists since 1983.
I established K-Street Dental and Orthodontic Group in 1995. I envisioned a complete dental treatment center where the highest level of care is delivered to each individual patient. This vision has become a reality.
The demand from many patients in Montgomery County to come to our Washington, DC, office inspired me to open a beautiful office in The Kentlands (Gaithersburg) in 2001.
Our philosophy remains the same. We emphasize that the comfort and emotional well-being of you, the patient, comes …first. We know that going to the dentist triggers an automatic fear button for some people. We believe you'll find a soothing nature about our dental center, and everyone who works here. It is all about you. We're here to serve your needs.
When you come to see us, I can only promise you three fundamental things: One, we will give you truly expert care. When it comes to your health and your teeth, there can be no substitute for expertise combined with a passion for this profession. Two, we will respect your time. No one, including me, likes to set an appointment, only to be seen an hour late. Three, our fees are fair, and we do everything we can to assist you with your insurance.
In essence, I promise you that you'll receive the highest level of dental care in a pleasant, respectful environment. As with all of our current clients (sounds better than patients doesn't it?), we welcome you with the goal of building a lifelong relationship.
I look forward to seeing you soon.
Positively,
Dr. Shouhayib
