Dr. Patel received his Doctorate in Dental Surgery from New York University's College of Dentistry.
It was there where he excelled, graduating #1 in his class and receiving numerous accolades.

For most people, achieving a healthy, beautiful smile is the reason for receiving orthodontic treatment.
Using braces or aligners, we can not only put your teeth into their proper, healthy position, but a great smile will also improve how you look and feel.
Whether you have crowding, an underbite, or any of the other number of common orthodontic problems, we will talk you through how we can fix the issues and ensure you are comfortable and confident in your course of treatment.

Orthodontic braces straighten and align the teeth by gently shifting them into the correct position.
The treatment addresses a variety of problems such as crowding, spacing, overbites, crossbites, and underbites.
New technology has allowed the orthodontist to move teeth much more effectively and efficiently than ever before.
Clear braces use new ceramic materials that look more transparent and tooth colored.
Just as effective as metal braces, clear braces allow you to get that great smile you always wanted with a more invisible touch.

Invisalign treatment consists of a series of clear plastic trays that are designed from custom molds of your mouth.
The molds are then digitized where Dr. Patel personally customizes your prescription to achieve the smile of your dreams.
The plastic trays are fabricated according to his plan and according to your individual diagnosis, you wear several sets of trays throughout your orthodontic treatment.

We like to see our patients as early as age 7, as recommended by the American Association of Orthodontics.
At this age, children have some of their permanent teeth and Dr. Patel can diagnose if any early treatment is needed to correct tooth and jaw problems.
Early treatment allows the orthodontist to guide jaw growth so the other teeth come into their proper position, create more space for crowded teeth, avoid permanent tooth damage, reduce the need for future extractions, or remove early habits that can help improve speech, health, and appearance.
