About

Hi! I’m Dr. Eyad Albaba, and I genuinely love what I do. I’ve always been fascinated by problem-solving, balance, and how thoughtful orthodontic care can positively impact both health and confidence. My path to orthodontics has been anything but traditional, and that diverse background strongly shapes the way I care for my patients today.

I earned my dental degree from UT Health and completed my orthodontic residency at Loma Linda University, where I developed a strong interest in early intervention and complex orthodontic care. I have additional training in airway-focused orthodontics and sleep medicine, and I am an active member of the American Association of Orthodontists (AAO) and the American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine (AADSM).

I am especially passionate about Phase I (early) orthodontic treatment, airway development, and managing complex orthopedic and orthognathic cases. My approach to patient care is conservative, practical, and highly individualized — I focus on doing what is necessary, at the right time, with the patient’s long-term health always in mind. I believe orthodontics is about more than straight teeth; it’s about proper growth, function, breathing, and overall wellness.

Through my work here, I hope to contribute meaningfully to the community by helping treat complex orthodontic cases, advocating for early intervention, and promoting healthier airways and breathing, especially in a city that struggles with high rates of asthma, allergies, and breathing-related disorders.

Originally from Houston, I enjoy staying active outside the office through hiking, running, biking, and spending time outdoors, as well as traveling whenever possible. I’m married and the proud father of a 9-month-old baby girl. I am honored to serve our patients and community and look forward to helping you and your family achieve healthy, confident smiles through thoughtful, comprehensive orthodontic care.
