Dr. Elisha Taavar
Passion for Orthodontics
As an American Board-Certified Orthodontist, I find immense joy in transforming my patients’ smiles, knowing that it can truly change their lives. My patient-centered approach ensures that each individual’s unique needs and preferences are carefully considered. By staying abreast of the latest clinical techniques and modern technology, I strive to provide top-notch care while prioritizing a positive and comfortable experience for all. Meeting new people, learning about them, and building meaningful connections is one of the most rewarding aspects of my profession.
Something Personal
I was born and raised in the Flatbush neighborhood of Brooklyn and have always dreamt of serving my community as a passionate clinician. As a fervent Yankees fan, I always enjoy discussing anything about the New York Yankees. I am married to my wonderful wife, Tehila, and we have four amazing children. I cherish every moment spent with my family. My commitment to treating my patients as I would my own children truly sets me apart in my field.
Education and Continuing Education
I earned my Doctorate Degree at NYU College of Dentistry in 2017, followed by a rigorous clinical general residency program at St. Barnabas Hospital in the Bronx. My academic journey continued with a highly competitive post-graduate Orthodontic residency program at Maimonides Medical Center. To stay current with the latest advancements in orthodontics, I continually engage in continuing education and professional development. This dedication ensures that my patients receive the best possible care with the most up-to-date techniques and technologies available.
