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 and reconstructive dentistry, and I specialize in designing beautiful, healthy smiles with innovative technology. My desire for knowledge and belief in constant and never-ending improvement have led me to meet and learn cutting-edge dentistry from some of the most prominent dental professionals in the world. 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 of the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry.
