Dr. Christopher Teo was born and raised in Singapore, and completed both international and postgraduate studies in orthodontic and dentofacial orthopedic training at NYU. He is also a diplomat for the American Board of Orthodontics and is board certified by the American Board of Orthodontics. Dr. Teos treatment philosophy starts with understanding each and every individual patients goals and needs, and works hand-in-hand with them to establish and build a balanced, beautiful smile. Having worked as a general dentist prior to his orthodontic specialization, Dr. Teo also has the benefit of a broader approach to his patients dental needs and enjoys multi-disciplinary cases which may involve working together with a primary dental care provider, as well as other specialists such as oral surgeons, prosthodontists and periodontists.
When he is not working, Dr. Teo stays physically active, from boxing and tennis to yoga and Pilates. He enjoys traveling with his wife and his beloved rescue dog, from road trips to overseas adventures. At home, he can be found working on his many plants, barbecuing and relaxing on the patio.
