What Makes Us Different

At Magic Touch Orthodontist, we understand that choosing an orthodontist is a major decision for you or your child’s health and confidence. Here’s what sets us apart:

1. A Philosophy Focused on Early Intervention

Dr. Shpuntoff strongly believes in starting orthodontic care early when it can make the biggest difference—especially for conditions like underbites and open bites. By addressing these concerns in childhood, we can often prevent the need for extractions or invasive jaw surgery later in life.

2. Customized, Patient-Centered Care

No two mouths are the same—and your treatment plan shouldn't be either. We create tailored orthodontic strategies based on each patient's unique bite, goals, and facial structure. Whether you need traditional braces or Invisalign, we take a personalized approach every step of the way.

3. Invisalign Expertise for Adults & Teens

Invisalign is more than just clear aligners—it’s a system that requires detailed planning for success. Dr. Shpuntoff uses Invisalign to help adult patients improve their bite before dental restorations like bridges or implants, often reducing the need for additional dental work and costs.

4. Decades of Experience in Complex Orthodontics

Some orthodontic cases require more than just straightening teeth—they need a specialist who can think creatively. From jaw discrepancies to severe malocclusions, we’ve helped thousands of patients overcome complex orthodontic issues with precision and care.

5. Convenient Location & Flexible Scheduling

Located just minutes from Great Neck and Douglaston, our office is easily accessible by car or public transportation. We also offer flexible appointment times to accommodate school, work, and busy family schedules.

6. A Reputation for Results

Our patients describe our outcomes as life-changing—and we take that to heart. Every treatment plan is driven by a commitment to deliver the best possible results, whether it's helping a child smile with confidence or preparing an adult for restorative dental work.

Overview of Services

Invisalign in Little Neck, NY

Invisalign is one of the most convenient and discreet ways to straighten your teeth—ideal for teens and adults alike. Using a series of clear, removable aligners, Invisalign gradually shifts your teeth into place without wires or brackets. As a trusted Invisalign provider near Great Neck and Bayside, Dr. Shpuntoff uses this system not only for aesthetics but also to improve bite function before restorative work like implants or crowns.

Orthodontics for Children

Early orthodontic treatment can change the course of your child’s dental future. We specialize in orthodontic care for children in Little Neck, particularly those with developmental issues like underbites (reverse bites) or significant overjet (“buck teeth”). Our approach emphasizes guidance and growth rather than waiting until all permanent teeth have erupted.

Open Bite Treatment

An open bite can interfere with chewing, speaking, and even self-esteem. At Magic Touch Orthodontist, we offer expert treatment for open bites in Queens, using a combination of traditional braces, habit-breaking appliances, and innovative techniques to create lasting change.

Reverse Bite (Underbite) Correction

An underbite—where the lower jaw extends forward—can lead to long-term issues with jaw function and appearance. We offer early underbite treatment in Little Neck that can prevent the need for surgical intervention later on. If you're an adult with a reverse bite, we can also discuss options for orthodontic compensation or, if needed, coordinate with oral surgeons for orthognathic correction.

Malocclusions and Bite Corrections

From crossbites to severe crowding, we provide comprehensive malocclusion correction in Little Neck, NY. Whether you need full braces or an Invisalign treatment plan, our goal is always a functional, beautiful bite that supports long-term dental health.

Why Choose a Local Orthodontist?

Choosing a local provider like Magic Touch Orthodontist means more than convenience—it’s about trust, community, and continuity of care. When you see a local orthodontist in Little Neck, you gain access to ongoing, personalized attention throughout your treatment journey.

For example, one of our patients from Douglaston came to us after receiving rushed care at a corporate chain. She felt like a number, not a person. After switching to our practice, she noticed the difference immediately—from the time we spent listening to her concerns to the follow-ups that ensured everything stayed on track. Today, her smile is not only straighter, but healthier too.

With a local provider, you also get faster appointment scheduling, better communication, and a more responsive team that understands your family’s needs.
