Meet Our On-Site Specialists

Since 2010, StarBrite Dental patients no longer have to travel to see a oral specialist. All Oral Surgery, Implant and Root Canal Services are performed right here at our dentist office in Rockville, Maryland.

Dr. Ali Eghtesadi - Root Canal Specialist

Dr. Ali Eghtesadi - Root Canal Specialist

Dr. Eghtesadi, in addition to being a highly-skilled dentist, is a specialist in endodontics: a field that focuses on the intricacies found inside our teeth. He is particularly known for his skill in the areas of root canals and endodontic microsurgery.

After earning a Bachelor of Science in Biology degree (with honors) from the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, Dr. Eghtesadi moved on to the University of Maryland Dental School. Being in the top 5% of his incoming dental school class, he was awarded a full academic scholarship. Upon graduation from the University of Maryland Dental School, Dr. Eghtesadi had the honor of being accepted for the General Practice Fellowship at Harvard University School of Dental Medicine. 
Completing his residency, Dr. Eghtesadi pursued an Endodontics specialty at the Lutheran Medical Center in Brooklyn, New York. In addition to his professional degrees, Dr. Eghtesadi also holds an MBA from Maryland’s Mount St. Mary’s University.

Dr. Eghtesadi is a perfect fit with our culture at StarBrite dental because of his considerable care for his patients as individuals. Explaining procedures to patients in detail, making them comfortable and alleviating any anxiety they feel about treatment are every bit as important to him as the treatment.

Dr. Eghtesadi has been in practice for 9 years while also performing extensive research at the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Biological Sciences.
