About

Dr. William Paulus brings a unique combination of athletic achievement, academic excellence, and decades of orthodontic experience to his practice. He grew up in Fort Worth, Texas, and attended the University of Texas on a swimming scholarship, where he distinguished himself as an elite athlete. In 1980, he earned a place on the U.S. Olympic Team; however, he was unable to compete due to the U.S. boycott of the Moscow Olympics. Despite this, his performance at the Olympic Trials demonstrated world-class ability, and he held the world record in the 100-meter butterfly for more than two years, highlighting his discipline, focus, and commitment to excellence. Following his undergraduate studies, Dr. Paulus pursued dentistry and earned his dental degree from Baylor College of Dentistry in Dallas. He then continued his advanced training at Saint Louis University Medical Center, completing his orthodontic residency in one of the largest and most respected orthodontic programs in the country. Graduating with honors in June 1994, he entered private practice and began working alongside his father, Dr. Peter Paulus, an accomplished orthodontist who treated over ten thousand patients and contributed to the development of modern surgical orthodontic techniques. Dr. Paulus specializes in orthodontic care, including traditional braces and Invisalign treatment, helping patients of all ages achieve properly aligned, healthy smiles. His approach combines technical precision with a personalized, patient-focused philosophy, ensuring that each treatment plan is tailored to the individual’s needs and goals.
