Doctor-Led Excellence
Why Patients Choose Wall Street Orthodontics for Orthodontic Treatment in NYC
Patients come to us for more than straight teeth. They come for a doctor who listens, explains each step, and respects their time.
Advanced Expertise, Including Complex and Adult Cases
Dr. Shapiro completed post-doctoral orthodontic training at Tufts University and focuses on cases that some practices turn away, including adult skeletal expansion. Many adult patients have been told they are past the point where expansion can help. That is not always true, and it is worth a second opinion. You can read more about his training and background on our About page.
Dr. Lucas W. Shapiro, Tufts Trained Discreet Options Designed for Working Professionals
A large share of our patients work in the Financial District and need treatment that fits a professional, client-facing schedule. Lingual braces and C5 Hidden Orthodontics move teeth from behind the smile, so treatment stays private during meetings, presentations, and everyday work.
A Whole-Health Approach to Orthodontic Care
Orthodontics is not only about appearance. We look at how the bite affects breathing, sleep, and jaw comfort. This whole-health view shapes how we plan treatment, especially for adult patients dealing with airway or TMJ concerns alongside crowding or bite issues.
