Dr. Rothstein has been practicing Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics in Brooklyn Heights since 1976. A member of the American Association of Orthodontists who has treated more than 6000 patients, "Dr. Ted" (as his patients fondly refer to him) is also a teacher, author, inventor, writer, and film maker. His public service films, which deal with various health related subject matter, can be seen on www.YouTube.com. In addition to providing traditional metal braces, his unique skills include mastery as a provider of cosmetic tooth-straightening appliances including Clear, Lingual and Invisalign braces, since they were first offered to the public in the late '1980's. He  invented OJW®.  (orthodontic jaw wiring for weight loss) and is the sole provider of this service in the country. Dr. Rothstein's web site (www.drted.com) can always be found in Google searches on page because of its currency and diverse and rich content. A PhD in Physical Anthropology with a specialty in  Dento-facial growth and development of children age 10-14, highly qualifies Dr. Rothstein as a provider for problematic or difficult cases. A progressive professional, he is now offering  patients the super "Snap on Smile" that has taken the world by surprise, and recently introduced Laser soft-tissue removal for overgrown gums. You have only to read Dr. Rothstein's resume to realize his extensive expertise and capabilities which assures you that you are choosing a seasoned professional who will provide you with the best care possible.  November 14, 2011  "A beautiful smile is a priceless asset."

I visited Dr. Rothstein for a second-opinion consultation regarding braces which I had for two years.  He was fair in pointing out what my doctor got right and what my doctor could do better.  Dr. Rothstein is very patient and enjoys exchanging with clients about their concerns.  He is a very warm and affable person.  He also took the time to call my doctor to advise how my treatment should proceed henceforth.  The second-opinion consultation fee was $75 dollars. It was well worth it. Marcos T. 

August 12, 2011:  Hi Dr. Rothstein,
      I was so pleased after leaving your office Thursday afternoon I decided to send you and your kind staff an email.
 After struggling with my braces for over 5 years, moving for different reasons and had to change orthodontists at least 3 times.  I found your office because I wanted to finally have them removed, initially i was very frustrated because I thought i have had it with braces discomfort, costs and orthodontics in general.  However visiting your office I am of an entirely different view,  I was absolutely blown away by your service,  your staff were warm and friendly and the ambiance was great.
      I want to thank you firstly for removing my braces and giving me my retainers at such short notice in under 2 hours, i am extremely satisfied with the result I feel like a new person. Thank you also for removing the tads/temporary bridges free of cost, and saving me the trouble of an additional visit and additional expenses, your are heaven sent. 
     I want to commend your very warm and friendly staff, say hi to Brian and Jenny for me, i feel like i have know them forever even though it was my first visit . In addition I must say your office is in a very tranquil location and inside was exceptional I love the decor it improved my spirit and I definitely did not leave feeling the way i felt when i came in. I had an overall great experience, made me felt sorry it had to be my last visit.
     This experience has renewed my faith in orthodontics and made me feel like the years of pain and torture was all worth it.
 Once again, THANK YOU!

Natalie is an Orthodontic Jaw Wiring patient  whose OJW I started about 6 months ago. She was so happy with this method of weight control that she wrote:

Hi Dr Ted
 
Natalie here. Still maintaining 150/152 pounds. PCP and plastic surgeon told me not to lose anymore weight or my thighs and behind would sag and then I would need a body/thigh lift. Going to have a tummy tuck August 20 with lipo of the upper arms and inner thighs (the areas that were resistant to diet and exercise)
Pray for me.

PS:                                         remember you can always give my number to potential or current ojw patients

I Sent my three kids for orthodontic treatment to Dr. Ted Rothstein on 35 Remsen St. and now my little girl needs braces. Guess where i'm sending her? He is a warm and cordial person who you will take to the moment you meet him. He's very thorough and  attentive to creating a smile you will love for a lifetime. My kids love him. Moreover, his resume is remarkable and as you will read there he is thoroughly versed in all the kinds of braces currently being taught in modern orthodontic schools. Check around and you won't find another orthodontist with a PhD in a topic directly related to his field. He's got my vote.

My experience with Dr. Ted Rothstein has been terrific. His fees are reasonable, and he is always accessible and extremely pleasant and professional. Best of all, he has done a wonderful job with my orthodontics and is finishing the job in  much less time than was originally estimated.  I  recommend him highly. --Tracey Harden (lingual braces).

I am now on month 4 in my braces journey and I literally cannot remember the last time I enjoyed time passing this much! Every night I look into the mirror to examine the transformation my smile is going through. It's such a rewarding experience to see new tiny, yet visually observable changes in the alignment of my teeth. I wanted to thank you for your hard work--I'm so glad that I chose a doctor who had an innovative approach to my treatment plan! My experiences at your office have been nothing but extremely positive, from the kind and friendly staff to your patient guidance during my visits.
Thank you and see you next week!
Best, Satomi Tsuyuki.  March 9, 2010
 

 Hi Dr. Ted, I am currently writing you from sunny Arizona. My husband is still in Iraq (25 months). I decided to move to where he will be working once he comes home. I cant ever thank you enough for helping me lose the 50 pounds and keeping it off almost 2 full years! I’m loving this lifestyle and am actually going to try to lose another 10 pounds. If I do I do.. If not well then I don’t. Without you i would never have been able to get my eating under control. All that I have been through ( success, happiness) Its still not as rewarding as feeling this damn good about myself. Thanks again to you and your staff. P.s. I had my brackets removed for some time now., but  I still pretend they are there. Every single overweight person has the power to do this without any harsh horrible life threatening surgery! Thank you again. Apryl Copenhaver   11/8/2009     Orthodontic Jaw Wiring
