Hulme Orthodontics

Richard D. Hulme, DDS, MS, Diplomate – American Board of Orthodontics
Sandra S. Nairooz, DDS, MS, Diplomate – American Board of Orthodontics

Dr. Nairooz is from Cairo, Egypt, and she completed dental school and orthodontics residency in the United States before joining Dr. Hulme in private practice in February.  Dr. Hulme is from Houston and moved to San Antonio for his orthodontic schooling, where he’s been practicing since 2005.    We’ve grown from two locations to six locations in the greater San Antonio area.  We are both among the 2% of all dental professionals who are board certified orthodontists.  This means that straightening teeth and aligning bites isn’t just something we do – it’s all we do.

 
We offer a full spectrum of specialty orthodontic treatments for children, adolescents, and adults: limited cosmetic alignment, early treatment to proactively care for difficult cases, transfer cases for military families, comprehensive orthodontics with braces or Invisalign, TMJ dysfunction therapy, and jaw surgery. From our diverse backgrounds – Dr. Nairooz is fluent in Arabic, and Dr. Hulme is fluent in Spanish – we bring our combined 25 years of clinical experience, expertise, and commitment to excellence to create a customized treatment plan for each patient, working closely with their other dental professionals.

 
Having each invested many years in our own education, we strive to educate our patients about the benefits of being treated by an orthodontist, the importance of lifelong oral health, the details of well aligned teeth, jaws and bite, and of course smile esthetics.  We recommend seeing patients at eight years old to screen for significant orthodontic concerns like extra or missing teeth, mouth habits, dental crowding or spacing, overbites, underbites, and crossbites. We evaluate twelve-year-olds for comprehensive treatment.  Adults love our treatment options like clear braces, clear Invisalign aligners, and braces hidden behind the teeth.  Our consultations are complimentary, we accept nearly all orthodontic insurance plans, and we offer in-house interest-free financing.  We’d love to meet you and help create your best smile!
