Being an orthodontist is possibly the best profession in the world. For me, it is a blessing to be able to help others achieve a beautiful smile. I find it very rewarding to take a person who is already beautiful and make them even more beautiful, confident, and comfortable through orthodontic care. It is not only the patients smile that transforms, but their personality as well.
I appreciate, and am very thankful to my family and mentors for all their continued support in helping me achieve the education and training I received. I am thrilled to be able to pass on my knowledge and skill to my patients smiles. It is important for me to keep current and up-to-date through constant study and attendance of lectures and seminars throughout the year.I made a promise to myself that I would pass it forward. It being the enthusiasm I have for my profession. I am honored to be an attending at Saint Barnabas Hospital, Bronx, and mentor 12 of the brightest orthodontic residents. I find this truly rewarding.
Born in Johannesburg, South Africa, I immigrated to the United States in 1986. I currently reside in Cresskill with my husband, Craig, our two lovely children, Emma and Chase, and our two dogs, Kaiaand Simba. When Im not in the office, I love spending time with my family, spin, yoga and listening to classical music.

I enjoy working in orthodontics, especially being able to laugh and smile with our patients and making sure that they have a positive orthodontic experience. My favorite part of my job is getting to meet new patients and seeing what their teeth look like after their braces are removed. When Im not in the office, I enjoy spending time with my two sisters and nephew and my friends, shopping, and writing poetry.
I am excited and honored to work with Dr. Reisner. I enjoy meeting our patients and helping them with their needs. I love to see the transformation from before to after orthodontic treatment and the truly beautiful smiles when they are done with treatment. In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my family and friends and going on hikes and adventures.
Our patients are so much fun! I enjoy getting to know them on a personal basis and watch as their teeth transform into beautiful, confident smiles. I love working with Dr. Reisner and our team because we all have the same goal: provide the best care for our patients in a friendly environment. In my free time, I love being with my family and traveling.
Along with our patients, I've had the privilege of having my own smile transformed by Dr. Reisner. I enjoy working with a team that's passionate about making beautiful smiles every day. Outside of the office, I love to spend time with my family and cat.

We also want you to feel comfortable and confident throughout your entire orthodontic experience, and our teamis dedicated to making sure that you receive the quality care you deserve.
Orthodontic appliances are made of metal, ceramic, or plastic. They may be removable or they may be brackets bonded to the teeth. By placing a constant, gentle force in a carefully controlled direction, orthodontic appliances slowly move teeth to the proper position.
Gone are the days of having 'railway tracks.' Today the braces are smaller and more comfortable. You can now choose clear or metal brackets and in some cases, clear aligners. Today 's wires are far less noticeable, and the latest materials are designed to move teeth faster with more comfort. Today, any age is a great age to wear braces!
Treatment time varies and can last between one and four years, depending on several factors including age, treatment method, and how minor or severe your case is. A big factor in a successful treatment is you! The more involved and diligent you are, the more efficient your treatment will be. For children, receiving interceptive or early treatment can also help provide a quicker treatment time in full braces.
