Dr. Boss graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in human biology from Michigan State University. He then went on to receive his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from the University of Detroit Mercy School of Dentistry in 2016. During his dental school years, Dr. Boss knew he would further his education as a specialist, and his engineering mind and drive led him to pursue orthodontics. After dental school, he attended a highly competitive 30-month residency program in orthodontics. In addition to being an orthodontist, he worked part time as a general dentist for three years while living in Arizona. This gives him a unique ability to look at a case from both a specialist and a general dentist’s perspective, which allows him to better communicate with his patients and their providers.

Dr. Boss loves working at Familia Dental because he strives to make a difference in his patients’ lives by building their confidence in themselves through a beautiful smile. Outside of work, Dr. Boss enjoys many hobbies. Among his favorites are tinkering, technology, horticulture, hiking with his wife, and most of all, eating great food.

Dr. Khaled Shalaby grew up in a house of doctors and surgeons and always felt drawn to the medical field. One of their family friends was his dentist, and everything the young Dr. Shalaby saw at their office made him more and more interested in the field. Once the dentist started calling him the young dentist of the clinic, he knew he would follow through with dentistry. Dr. Shalaby began by earning a BDS in 2003 from Ain Shams University Egypt then a master’s degree in oral surgery in 2010 before graduating with a DDS from the University of Minnesota in 2019. He joined our team shortly after.

Dr. Shalaby loves everything about dentistry, especially his interactions with people and watching them become happier and healthier. He loves the patient diversity here at Familia Dental, where he can see patients from six months to 92 years old. Outside of the office, Dr. Shalaby enjoys spending time with his wife and three amazing children, traveling and swimming.
