At Laster Orthodontics, we are passionate about creating beautiful smiles that inspire confidence for patients of all ages. Since 2004, weve been serving the community of Raleigh and surrounding areas with unmatched service quality and attention to detail. Our first priority has always been making sure our patients enjoy a personalized and comfortable treatment that leads them to achieve a dazzling smile. Theres nothing more exciting than seeing your brand new smile for the first time, and our team works diligently, so our patients get to have this life-changing experience. Weve had the unique honor of treating several generations of families because of the trust weve built with our patients.

One of the cornerstones of Laster Orthodontics is community outreach. Dr. Laster chose to build his practice here because he loves that Raleigh has the conveniences of a big city with the relationships of a small town. Our office has become a staple in the area because we understand the culture that makes the community so great. Beyond the beauty of the nearby beaches and rolling mountains, our town truly shines because of the fun and family-centered values of our neighbors. We want to invest back into the community that has accepted Laster Orthodontics with open arms by supporting local sports teams, schools, and more.

The driving force behind our one-of-a-kind patient experience is our knowledgeable team. Each of our team members is highly trained to help our patients achieve the smile of their dreams. Our office has many pieces of cutting-edge technology, but only our skilled staff can operate them with the technique necessary to optimize your time in treatment. Beyond technical skills, the Laster team thrives because of their passion for providing life-changing treatment that results in gorgeous smiles. Well always go the extra mile to give you the tailored treatment you deserve.

Behind every amazing team is a skilled leader, and Dr. Laster has set the tone for our office in terms of quality and culture. While he has been an orthodontic expert for years, he knew early on in his education that he wanted to spend the rest of his life improving his patients confidence while perfecting their smiles. Dr. Laster believes the best orthodontists are those who understand there is always more to learn, and he is devoted to being a lifelong student of his field. His patients benefit from his desire to learn and attention to detail as they enjoy smoother treatments and long-lasting results.

Our dream is for everyone in our community to have access to quality orthodontic care and healthy, long-lasting smiles. While the cost of treatment varies depending on the severity of your oral health issues, our team will go through all the financials with you before treatment so you can better prepare for the costs. As a courtesy, we will be happy to complete and file the primary insurance forms related to our treatment. We work hard to ensure an easy payment plan and act as a liaison between you and your insurance company. However, our professional services are rendered to you, not your insurance company. Please remember that you are directly responsible to us for the obligation of payment for treatment. We also offer payment plans to suit different budgets, including a low down-payment option.

Dr. Stewart Laster loves the transformation a great smile brings to a person! He has made it his lifes passion to help others love their smiles. He truly enjoys creating a lasting impression on the patients he serves. In addition, he believes in providing the best care and patient experience at Laster Orthodontics.

Dr. Laster grew up in Norfolk, Virginia, and went to The College of William and Mary for his undergraduate degree in biology. Then, he attended UNC-Chapel Hill for dental school andorthodontic residency and finished in 2001 and 2004. Then, immediately joined this practice and have been practicing orthodontics in the Raleigh area for over 17 years. Dr. Lasters thesis on three-dimensional imaging won the national research award and paved the way for incorporating unique and specialized technologies in his practice.

It was his early work in three-dimension imaging that gave Dr. Laster the expertise to develop the Laster Perfect Smiles (LPS) clear aligner system, and start the first and only clear aligner lab in the Raleigh area. LPS is a cost-effective clear aligner system (like Invisalign) that in our practice delivers amazing smiles for our patients using plastic as opposed to braces. Dr. Lasters real passion is providing patients with top-notch service, and seeing the amazing smiles that we create together.

Dr. Laster met his bride, Dr. Christine Laster while attending dental school at UNC-Chapel Hill when they both volunteered to do a mission trip to the Nuestros Pequenos Hermanos Orphanage in Mexico. They have been married for over 20 years, since 2001. Dr. Laster has three children Cate (UNC-Chapel Hill) Caroline (North Raleigh Christian Academy) and Will (Thales Academy). Dr. Laster enjoys time with his family and dogs, traveling, reading, training for marathons, and coaching and attending youth sports.
