Meet Our Board Certified Facial Plastic Surgeon

Curtis Gaball, MD is a fellowship trained Facial Plastic Surgeon. He has been Board Certified by the American Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery since 2011 and by the American Board of Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery since 2007. He has held an academic appointment training other doctors how to perform this type of surgery since 2008.

Dr Gaball is a physician who is double Board Certified in Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery as well as Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery. He has been in practice since 2006. He held a position as full time university teaching faculty for over 11 years teaching doctors-in-training in a top American College of Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) accredited 5 year training program how to perform facial plastic surgery, including injectables. Dr Gaball has extensive experience treating men and women of all ages and racial backgrounds.
Dr Gaball believes in offering great value. Whereas most businesses offering injectables delegate these procedures to nurses, assistants, or at best, a physician with no-in depth anatomic knowledge of the face and neck, Inspire Smiles offers a significantly higher level of training and expertise.

An excellent result cannot be seen; it draws no attention. It harmonizes with the rest of the face. A healthy aesthetic mindset is to desire to look like one’s self only better so that our appearance matches how we feel or view our true selves.
All aesthetic treatments should consider ideal function and appear natural so that others cannot detect what was done, only a general sense of improved appearance.
Aesthetically ideal natural proportions have been developed and honed by artists, scientists and doctors over centuries which are specific to gender, age and race. Results should always fall within these norms yet personalized for each person.
I believe the human body is the most beautiful creation in the universe!

Dr. Curtis Gaball provides adjunctive services such as Botox and Filler.

Botox is a safe, FDA-approved cosmetic treatment that has been popular among healthy American men and women since its FDA approval in 2002. Millions of people have undergone Botox injections to help smooth facial lines and restore a younger appearance. Botox is injected into the facial muscles, helping to block nerve impulses and relax the muscles. Without contracting facial muscles, lines become less evident and are prevented from worsening.

Facial fillers are substances injected beneath the skin to help smooth fine lines and boost facial volume. Also known as dermal fillers, these injections are in-office procedures that are minimally invasive alternatives to cosmetic surgery. Patients often undergo facial filler injections to achieve a more youthful appearance with as little downtime as possible. Fillers are available to target nearly any area of the face, including crow’s feet, laugh lines, and thin lips.

Curtis Gaball, MD is married to Elona Gaball. His personal interests include fitness, philosophy, technical innovation, scientific discovery, personal development, Tony Robbins and Landmark training.

Meet Our Highly Skilled Surgical Periodontist

Dr. Deborah Ruprecht is a California native raised in Orange County and attended the University of Southern California for her undergraduate, doctorate, and specialty in Periodontics. Her diverse career path of private practice, academia, and dental relief outreach has provided experiences that differentiate her from her peers giving her a solid foundation in dentistry.

Dr. Ruprecht received comprehensive training from the University of Southern California, one of the world’s leading universities in dental education. She began her academic career with studies in dental hygiene and discovered her passion for periodontics, which would require seven additional years of training. Dr Gaball believes in offering great value. Whereas most businesses offering injectables delegate these procedures to nurses, assistants, or at best, a physician with no-in depth anatomic knowledge of the face and neck, Inspire Smiles offers a significantly higher level of training and expertise.

Her experience could not have been more ideal, as she studied under giants in dental education such as Anna Pattison, Diane and Ray Melrose, Richard Kahn, Jorgen Slots, Hessam Nowzari, Homa Zadeh, Gerald Drury, Winston Chee, and Simon Gamer. These gifted educators helped shape her values and philosophy for patient care, and her gratitude for them and their gifts inspired her to begin teaching also, even as a graduate student.

“The best path to oral health is prevention.”

Working in private practice since 2000, Dr. Ruprecht takes an integrative approach to oral health and its relationship to systemic health. She believes the foundation of excellence in periodontics and implant dentistry begins with and follows a solid preventive care program. Oral health and systemic health go hand in hand. With good health supported by periodontics, dentistry becomes the easier part of the work, and the patient receives a significant life upgrade.

Dr. Ruprecht utilizes a multidisciplinary approach to achieve oral health while supporting the body with natural options to strengthen the immune system. She utilizes supplements, PRF technology, nutritional counsel and smoking cessation programs as well as professional referrals and partners to help patients optimize a healthy mind and body.

Dr. Ruprecht’s strengths are in planning complex implant and multidisciplinary cases and helping patients understand treatment in a systematic, organized sequence. She genuinely cares about the health and well-being of her patients and understands that quality care requires investing time in planning cases and building a solid doctor-patient relationship.

“The only way to keep your education is to give it away.”

Guided by her lifelong enjoyment of instruction, Dr. Ruprecht enjoys teaching surgery and treatment planning in advanced periodontology as part-time faculty at the University of Southern California.

She began investing in the next generation of dental professionals as a graduate student and taught in the departments of Dental Hygiene and Restorative Dentistry. Today, her students benefit from her professional experience, and her patients benefit from Dr. Ruprecht’s connection to USC and its world-class resources in advanced dentistry.

Influenced by her parents’ care for the underprivileged, Dr. Ruprecht felt a calling to mission work early in her career. Dr. Ruprecht volunteers as the clinical director and a board member for SmileOnU, a global nonprofit dental relief organization. She has helped lead mission clinics in India and Cambodia, as well as local clinics in Los Angeles and Orange counties.

Her mission experiences have been profound and life changing. Without exception, she finds that volunteers receive the greater blessing than those they serve.

Beyond her work, Dr. Ruprecht enjoys spending time with her husband and family. Her active lifestyle includes swimming, triathlons, marathons, hiking, skiing, yoga, and traveling. Dr. Ruprecht and her husband Michael also sing in their church choir and serve in a community outreach program.
