My name is Dr. Alex Shalman, and I am a cosmetic dentist in New York City and New Jersey. I am also a fifth generation dentist. Since my great, great grandmother finished dental school in 1917 to become one of the first female dentists in Moscow, Russia, my family has been practicing dentistry for nearly 100 years. I am the first male dentist.
I am obsessed with aesthetic, reconstructive and cosmetic dentistry, and I specialize in designing beautiful, healthy smiles with innovative technology. My desire for knowledge and belief in constant and never-ending improvement has led me to meet and learn cutting edge dentistry from some of the most prominent dental professionals in the world, also well-known as one of the best cosmetic dentists. My involvement in the dental community includes teaching at my alma mater NYUCD, advising the NYU Aesthetics Society and Participating in the University Relations committee in the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry.
I have always been in the dental industry, and what I mainly cared about was having healthy teeth and gums. I always ate well, exercised and took great care of myself, and when I saw Dr. Shalman’s other work it occurred to me that it was the right time to have my own Smile Makeover. Now I love my smile and get compliments on it all the time!
Ella KotlerThanks to Doctor Shalman and his team, I finally have the smile I've been looking for! The doctor's patience, confidence, experience, attention to detail, and friendliness made the whole smile makeover process easy. I'll definitely be recommending Dr. Shalman's dental practice to all friends, relatives, and others who are looking to change their lives by taking their smile appearance to another level!!!
