We invite you to read a little more about what makes our practice different below, and if you have any questions or feel inspired to schedule a consultation, give our office a call!

A Legacy of Trust, Evolved

Dr. Nelson Howard built our practice and its reputation over 30 years ago, and Dr. Khizer Hafeez and Dr. Dariyan Ayazi are proud to carry his legacy forward. Dr. Howard chose them as his predecessors because of their extensive training and reputations in the community, as well as the passion they have for not just their quality of work, but also their patients.

State-of-the-Art Technology That Improves Outcomes

We have invested in the latest technology to provide our patients with exceptional, long-lasting results. Diagnostic instruments such as our Trios 6 scanner and CBCT scanner are able to show us every detail of your facial anatomy as well as detect cavities using infrared light. We also utilize our soft tissue laser to make your procedures faster, more precise, and most importantly, more comfortable. Come experience the difference that cutting-edge technology makes in your care!

Committed to Personalized, Comfortable Care

Our dentists in San Marcos understand that using the latest technology and techniques is only half of what’s required to provide outstanding dentistry and results. The other half is listening to our patients and building relationships that last a lifetime. This dynamic allows us to truly hone in on what you’re looking for when you want us to plan a smile makeover for you or restore missing teeth with dental implants. It helps create a collaborative atmosphere where you feel comfortable, listened to, and understood.

We Believe in Evidence-Based Dentistry

Dr. Hafeez is a globally recognized researcher that has been published in several national and international publications, and Dr. Ayazi has advanced experience in treating patients who have complex medical histories as well as providing special needs care. Together, our dentists share a strong core of practicing evidence-based dentistry. That means using the best materials available and continually updating our techniques and technology as they change over the years.
