Dr. Maria Yazji’s holistic approach to orthodontics focuses on crafting confident smiles that elevate and complement your entire facial aesthetic. With over 30 years of experience, 20,000+ patients treated, and a personalized methodology rooted in compassion and clinical precision, Dr. Yazji has become one of the most trusted names in orthodontics across South Florida.
Recognized as a Diamond Plus Provider of Invisalign®, a distinction earned by only a few of the top 1% of providers in North America, Dr. Yazji combines cutting-edge technology with a deep understanding of how orthodontics transforms not just teeth, but lives. A lifetime of newfound confidence in your smile starts with a complimentary consultation at Smarter Orthodontics.
Dr. Yazji knows that a brand new, stunning smile is not just simply about straighter teeth. Instead of only fixing malocclusions (gaps, spaces, and bites), Dr. Yazji focuses on seven key areas to ensure your smile is designed for your unique facial structure:
Every patient is different, but a focus on these features allows Dr. Yazji to build you a smile that is well-balanced, proportionate, and functional.
Smarter Orthodontics offers a full range of treatments tailored for kids, teens, and adults, from braces and clear aligners to beyond. At our practice, using state-of-the-art technology supports a broader mission: a face-first and aesthetic approach tailored to your unique needs.
Whether you prefer classic metal, low-profile ceramic, lingual, or Insignia™ custom-designed braces, we offer options that fit every lifestyle.
For kids, our WildSmiles® brackets add a fun, personalized twist to orthodontic treatment, making every smile one of a kind.
As a Diamond Plus Provider, Dr. Yazji has helped thousands of patients transform their smiles with Invisalign. Super Elite Provider status indicates that not only are we among the most experienced Invisalign® practices in the country, but we are also committed to staying current with the latest Invisalign® treatment techniques.
We also offer DreamSmile by Dr. Yazji. This nighttime aligner technology offers a convenient, comfortable way to straighten teeth and is ideal for patients of all ages who want results without the all-day commitment.
Like the American Association of Orthodontics, we recommend that all children see an orthodontist by age 7. Using advanced diagnostics and tools, we guide facial development in kids and prevent more complex issues down the road.
Our goal is to limit extractions and give kids an early start to a fantastic smile.
Retainers keep your smile looking its best for years and are available in fixed and removable options.
With our Smart Retain Program, you’ll receive extra retainer sets as needed. At Smarter Orthodontics, we’ve got your back from start to finish and beyond.

At Smarter Orthodontics, we believe great results start with understanding. Dr. Yazji brings a legacy of excellence and uses a unique co-diagnosis philosophy—a collaborative process where patients are active participants in their care. Rather than simply telling you what needs to be done, Dr. Yazji takes the time to review your X-rays, photos, and digital scans with you. Raised by two dentist parents, she developed a passion for helping patients of all ages look and feel their best through orthodontics early on. With more than 30 years of experience, she highlights the areas that can be improved, explains the “why” behind the treatment plan, and answers your questions with transparency and care.
Our team is committed to delivering exceptional orthodontic care with a personal touch. From our knowledgeable administrative staff to our skilled clinical team, every member shares the goal of making your orthodontic experience as smooth, comfortable, and rewarding as possible.
In addition to being an award-winning orthodontist in Greater Miami, Dr. Yazji is also a published author. Her book, Unlock the Power of Your Smile, highlights real stories from past patients.
