Dr. Scott Schames combines world-class orthodontic training with a warm, approachable personality that helps children, teens, and parents feel right at home.

​

Originally from Los Angeles, Dr. Schames earned his dental degree from the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF), widely recognized as one of the nation's premier dental schools. He then completed his specialty training in orthodontics in Atlanta, where he developed advanced expertise in creating healthy, confident smiles.

​

For the past five years, Dr. Schames has served as the clinical director of one of the busiest orthodontic practices in the New York metropolitan area, caring for thousands of children, teens, and adults while leading clinical teams and providing exceptional orthodontic care.

​

Today, he brings that experience and a touch of West Coast warmth to Northern New Jersey. Patients appreciate not only his clinical expertise, but also his genuine, down-to-earth approach that makes every visit comfortable and enjoyable.

​

What truly sets Dr. Schames apart is his meticulous attention to detail and his commitment to creating a treatment plan that's as unique as each patient. He understands that no two smiles or patients are alike. Rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach, he carefully tailors every treatment to each individual's facial features, bite, lifestyle, and goals, delivering beautiful, healthy, lasting results.

​

Whether it's a child's first orthodontic visit, a teen beginning braces or clear, nearly invisible aligners, or an adult finally pursuing the smile they've always wanted, Dr. Schames believes every patient deserves personalized care, open communication, and an exceptional orthodontic experience from start to finish.
