About Arlington Dentistry By Design
Invisalign comes up often here, including cases paired with implants or used to correct shifted teeth after years without a retainer.
Arlington Dentistry By Design is a general dental practice that also offers Invisalign, traditional braces, clear aligners, and clear braces alongside its regular dental services. Reviews mention Invisalign more than typical for a general dentist, with cases ranging from routine alignment to more complex situations like reopening space for an implant. Dr. Khalil and Dr. Ray Cho are both mentioned often for explaining treatment plans and handling procedures with care, and several reviews describe the office easing longstanding dental anxiety.

I can’t recommend Dr. Khalil enough! My case was especially challenging because I had to undergo Invisalign first to reopen the space for a dental implant after having a molar removed years ago. It wasn’t a straightforward implant, but he handled everything with incredible skill, precision, and patience.

Arlington Dentistry by Design did the impossible! Due to past experiences, I have a lot of anxiety about going to the dentist, but the hygienists at DbD are gentle and responsive and Dr. Khalil always explains the procedures before he begins and gives options to alleviate any anxiety I’m having. I no longer avoid going to the dentist.

I am contemplating changing dentists. I had an appointment today to meet the staff and dentist. At every interaction, the staff was super helpful and kind. I met Dr Cho today and his dental assistant, Elena. They both were very patient and answered all of my questions regarding a few outstanding dental issues that need attention. It’s never easy to change health care providers, but I have been very impressed so far with the staff at Arlington Dentisty by Design.

Dr. Khalil and his team (shoutout to Sara!) did a phenomenal job at my most recent checkup. D-by-D is a highly professional clinic and provided me with a solid gameplan for my dental journey. Had a much better experience here than at the other, sketchy dental clinics I've visited in Arlington.
