Dr. Maria Yazji does more than straighten teeth with orthodontic care. Her face-first approach crafts confident smiles that elevate and complement your entire facial aesthetic, rather than just straightening teeth. With over 30 years of experience 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.
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.
Join our exclusive Botox Club to enjoy youthful, radiant skin with customizable treatments throughout the year.
This treatment is perfect for relieving jaw tension and clenching. Botox also smooths fine lines, all under the care of a skilled orthodontic provider.
We know that achieving your best smile goes beyond straightening teeth, which is why we offer additional orthodontic treatments beyond the standard range of care. In three decades of experience, Dr. Yazji has learned which treatments best serve her community, and she goes to great lengths to ensure that her practice can give everyone what they need for an exemplary smile.
Our professional take-home teeth whitening kits combine convenience and powerful results, so you can achieve a noticeably whiter smile from the comfort of home. Each kit includes our exclusive color-correcting serum, specially formulated to lift stains gently and safely while enhancing the natural brilliance of your teeth.

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.

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.
