Orthodontists in Rochester Hills

Dr. Salman is a Michigan native. She grew up in Kalamazoo. She considers herself to be a true Michigan Wolverine, having spent eleven straight years at the University of Michigan for her undergraduate, dental, and orthodontic specialty training.

After Dr. Salman earned her Bachelor of Science degree in neuroscience, she initially considered pursuing a graduate degree in that field but decided to switch gears to dentistry after observing all the fun her brother (now a practicing oral surgeon in Jacksonville, FL) was having in dental school.

While in dental school, Dr. Salman fell in love with orthodontics. She feels that orthodontics is the perfect combination of science, art, and patient care that allows her to make a lasting and positive impact on the lives of others.

After completing her residency training, she spent time practicing in Minnesota and Wisconsin. She is happy to return home to Michigan to be closer to her family and friends in the area and is so excited to join the TDR team.

In her free time, Dr. Salman enjoys cooking, hiking, yoga, reading non-fiction, and traveling to new places.

Dr. Groth is a native of Metro Detroit and the son of a local dentist. He attended Cranbrook-Kingswood school and then Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia where he was an academic all-American. He was also a four-year varsity athlete, attending two NCAA national championships and earning multiple all-America swim awards.

He attended dental school at the University Of Michigan where he graduated at the top of his class. His main course of study at U of M was the leading edge of orthodontics: the benefits of robotically bent, custom wires in orthodontics. Quick to embrace new technology, Dr. Groth leads our team in harnessing the latest innovations in digital impressions.

His innovative thinking has allowed us to make our own clear trays for minor movement and then 3D print the models for aligners and retainers to save our patients money and treatment time.

As a Diplomate of the American Board of Orthodontics since 2012, Dr. Groth has lectured regularly to the second-year residents at the University Of Michigan School of Dentistry. He’s a published author, and his articles have appeared as the cover stories for the Journal of Clinical Orthodontics. He also speaks nationally on the benefits of 3D technology in orthodontics.

Dr. Groth enjoys running and cycling with friends and his wife Kelly. Both have a passion for running races in support of local charities, and you’ll see them running in their TDR t-shirts. They are the proud parents of two beautiful children, daughter Reese and son TJ.
