Meet Dr. Huang
Iwei Huang, DMD, MS
As an orthodontist, I take pride in helping our patients enhance both their health and appearance. I strive for excellence in every treatment I provide.
My journey in dentistry began in high school, where I made study models for my orthodontist. This experience inspired me to pursue dental school, where I developed a passion for orthodontics. What drew me in was the blend of art and science and the challenge of planning treatment that addresses the patient's unique needs and goals. I enjoy the problem-solving aspect of my work and find great fulfillment in seeing the results, whether it’s a beautiful, confident smile, or improved function.
Education and Commitment to Excellence
- University of California at Davis – B.S. in Psychobiology
- Harvard School of Dental Medicine – Doctorate of Dental Medicine
- University of Illinois at Chicago – Degree in Orthodontics and M.S. in Oral Biology and Orthodontics
The reasons I became an orthodontist are the same reasons that continue to inspire me today. Every patient has their own story—whether they come to us seeking a more confident smile or need help improving the function of their teeth, my goal is always the same: Listen, understand, and create the right treatment plan to meet your individual needs.
I’m deeply committed to ongoing professional development, which is why I regularly pursue continuing education courses and stay involved in professional study clubs. This dedication ensures that I’m always offering the latest techniques and approaches to my patients.

In the Practice
I have been practicing orthodontics since 2001, and love being able to help my patients achieve a beautiful smile or better function. I believe that technology can play a critical role in excellent orthodontic care, and I implement proven technologies that can benefit our patients. Making a positive change in my patients’ lives motivates me, and I enjoy the challenge of creating personalized treatment plans to achieve great results.
I want our patients to feel completely at ease here, and my staff and I provide an office environment that is comfortable and friendly, where we listen to our patients and address their concerns. We treat each patient with respect and compassion, and offer treatments we would provide to our own families. We hope you feel relaxed and appreciated in our office, and will create a smile that is above and beyond your expectations.
Outside the Office
I was born in Taiwan and spent my early years in Brazil before moving to California, where I attended high school and college in Davis, California. Since 1998, I’ve called the Chicagoland area home where my wife, Doris, and I have raised two sons, Lucas and Logan. Family is incredibly important to me, and we cherish spending time together, whether we’re cooking at home, exploring the city, or traveling to new places.
