What Sets us Apart?
Board-Certified Orthodontist
Dr. Whitney Mostafiz went the extra mile to become a Diplomate of the American Board of Orthodontics. This means that cases that she treated were peer-reviewed and that she had to take a written as well as oral exam about orthdontic diagnosis and treatment. Less than one-third of orthodontists receive this distinction. Being Board-Certified is the highest level of professional achievement and is a testiment to Dr. Whitney's dedication to superior treatment outcomes in her orthodontic cases.
Life-Long Passion
Dr. Whitney remembers the first moment she became fixated on teeth when she was five (you'll have to ask her about that!). From a young age, she discovered an interest in dentistry and realized a love for orthodontics when undergoing her own orthodontic treatment. Dr. Whitney realized that orthodontics offers her an opportunity to bridge several things that she loves to do: to make people happy and healthy, to think like an artist and a doctor, and to be constantly innovative like a scientist. For these reasons, Dr. Whitney is sure to offer you exceptional care and hopes that her passion may rub off on you, too!
Fun fact: Dr. Whitney dreamed to be an orthodontist since she was 12!
Contemporary and Customized Treatment Approach
Dr. Whitney wants you to have an orthodontic experience that is all smileworthy. She is experienced with and offers you cutting-edge orthodontic technologies. Dr. Whitney is devoted to bridging modern orthodontic techniques with a personalized edge. Each orthodontic case is individually assessed, with no cookie cutter approach here. No questions are to be left unanswered, and with Dr. Whitney's friendly and gentle approach, she hopes that you feel at home from start to finish.
Knowledge is Power
Dr. Whitney is an active leader in the orthodontic community locally and at-large, and strives to stay on the forefront of orthodontics. Dr. Whitney has contributed to driving the field forward as faculty at NYU and as a published author in several prestigious journals, most recently publishing in the American Journal of Dentofacial Orthopedics in April 2019. She has received several awards in relation to her research endeavors. Dr. Whitney has lectured at Mt. Sinai, Columbia, NYU as well as for multiple study clubs and meetings (check out some of these Events!). She is also a member of multiple study clubs, as well as orthodontic and dental associations. She was selected to attend the American Association of Orthodontics Emerging Leaders Program in 2015 as well as Board of Directors Meeting in order to help contribute to what the future offers in orthodontics. As president of the New York Chapter of the Alpha Omega International Dental Fraternity, Dr. Whitney organizes a continuing education series for dentists in the New York Area.
