Richard L. Schechtman, DDS

"I decided to pursue a career in orthodontics because it is a very creative dental specialty that requires a high degree of analytical skill. I am an avid piano player, and being an orthodontist allows me to incorporate my passion and talent for art when creating a radiant, confident smile for every patient I see. Each patient's orthodontic needs are unique, and through meticulous planning and foresight I am able to develop a treatment plan that can provide them with the outstanding results they want. It is personally and professionally rewarding to see the positive impact that my care has on my patients.

"I've worked hard to make orthodontic care a comfortable, rewarding experience for the thousands of patients whose smiles I've enhanced. I do this by staying on top of the latest advances in my field—such as the SureSmile® digital orthodontic system, and Invisalign® The Clear Alternative to Braces—and making them available to my patients. I really enjoy interacting with my patients and providing them with friendly, personalized care."
