Meet Dr. Tejjy Thomas

Philadelphia’s Premier Orthodontist – Dr. Tejjy Thomas is a dual Ivy-league trained and certified orthodontic specialist.

After a childhood exposed to various cultures and countries, he brought his international flair to Philadelphia, where he received his Doctorate in Dental Medicine from the University of Pennsylvania, where he graduated with honors.

After several years of practicing as a restorative dentist, his passion for continued learning and interest in orthodontics led him back to the University of Pennsylvania to do his post-doctoral training in Orthodontics & Dentofacial Orthopedics. He has been dedicated to creating beautiful smiles ever since.

He is proud to be an orthodontic faculty member at the University of Pennsylvania and enjoys teaching and giving back to the residency program where he received his training.
