Meet the Heart of Our Practice: Dr. Hussaini

Doctor Hussaini is a passionate orthodontics in Herndon, VAOur Herndon location is led by Dr. Hussaini, who has been part of the local community for over 25 years. That long-standing connection means he gets the families he serves like only a true local can.

His credentials are just as strong as his local roots. Dr. Hussaini earned his Bachelor of Science in biomedical engineering from Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU), graduating summa cum laude. He went on to complete his Doctor of Dental Surgery at the VCU School of Dentistry on the MCV campus, graduating magna cum laude.

He then earned a Master of Science in Orthodontics from Columbia University College of Dental Medicine, where he served as class president and chief resident. Dr. Hussaini is a Board-Certified Orthodontist and Diplomate of the American Board of Orthodontics, a distinction held by roughly one in three practicing orthodontists nationwide.

Outside the office, Dr. Hussaini is a husband to Maria, a proud dad to Zaynab and Yusuf, and an avid sports fan. He loves dinners out, movies with the family, and traveling whenever life allows. That down-to-earth personality is part of why our visits feel less like dental appointments and more like catching up with a friend.

What Orthodontic Services Do We Offer in Herndon?

At our Herndon location, we focus on two core orthodontic treatments: traditional braces and clear aligners.

Traditional Braces

Today’s metal braces are smaller, stronger, and way less in-your-face than the bulky ’90s versions. Add elastic colors to show off school spirit, holiday flair, or just because.

Clear Aligners

You weren’t made to be invisible. These aligners were. Custom invisible trays, scanned digitally to your teeth, are designed to gently shift them into place without anyone noticing. Perfect for teens and adults who want a low-key option.

How Much Do Braces Cost in Herndon?

Our braces start at $2,998 with monthly payments of $123. That’s up to 60% less than most practices charge for comparable orthodontic treatment. Clear aligners are $3,998 total, with the same $123 monthly payments. A great smile, without the sticker shock.

The whole idea? Everyone deserves a smile they’re proud of, and price shouldn’t be the thing standing in the way. Contact our Herndon office to confirm specific insurance options.
