Dr. Isaak Yelizar

Moving to the United States as a child, Dr. Isaak felt self-conscious about his oral health and appearance. His ability to access quality dental care was impossible in his former country; however, once he met with a caring and compassionate orthodontist at 13 years old, he began to witness the positive changes occurring inside his mouth.

More confident than ever before, his psychological and physical appearance began to improve, so he also changed his social behaviors.

By the time he reached the end of high school, he was so impressed by what orthodontic treatment had done for him that he knew he wanted to make it his future career.

After graduating from the New York University College of Dentistry with high honors, he served as a member of the Omicron Kappa Upsilon National Dental Honor Society. He completed a general practice residency at New York Methodist Hospital in Brooklyn, NY, – a place where he fell in love with orthodontics. He eventually pursued an orthodontic residency at St. Barnabas Hospital in the Bronx.

As a board-certified orthodontist, he completed many different advanced written and oral examinations and his cases before a panel of experts from the American Board of Orthodontics.

Hear from Patients

Simpli the best! Feeling blessed to have met Dr Yelizar. I got braces 3 times (span of 25 years), Dr Yelizar is my 4th ortho and he finally fixed my issue. He is a problem solver, perfectionist, and extremely passionate about his work. Followed Dr Yelizar on Instagram for 2 years and thought he was in Connecticut. After 2 years, I checked again hoping he relocated to New York City. To my surprise, he was always in Forest Hills. So I am very glad he is now my orthodontist. I highly recommend Dr Yelizar!

EARLY INTERCEPTIVE ORTHODONTIC TREATMENT

If your child is developing bite or spacing issues, early orthodontic guidance can help prevent bigger problems later. Early interceptive orthodontics may address concerns like protruding front teeth, underbites/overbites, and crossbites that can contribute to uneven jaw growth or excessive wear.

Our goal is to support healthy development and create a simpler path to a confident smile for families in Middle Village and Syosset.

TRADITIONAL BRACES

Traditional metal braces are one of the most reliable and cost-effective ways to straighten teeth and improve bite alignment. Brackets and wires apply controlled pressure to guide teeth into healthier positions over time.

This option is especially effective for more complex cases where precise tooth and bite correction is needed.

BRAVA BY BRIUS HIDDEN TREATMENT

Want straighter teeth without obvious braces? Brava by Brius is a behind-the-teeth orthodontic system designed to be discreet. The appliance is placed on the lingual (tongue) side, so it’s not visible when you smile.

During your consultation, we’ll confirm whether Brava is the right fit for your goals, timeline, and bite needs.

CLEAR ALIGNERS

Clear aligners offer a removable, low-visibility way to straighten teeth. You’ll wear a sequence of custom trays that gently shift your teeth in stages.

Many patients like aligners because they’re easy to remove for meals and brushing. Treatment time varies, and we’ll give you a clear plan after your exam.

CLEAR/CERAMIC BRACES

Ceramic braces work like traditional braces but use tooth-colored brackets to help the treatment look more subtle. They’re a great middle ground for patients who want the control of braces with a more discreet appearance.

We’ll help you compare ceramic braces vs. aligners vs. traditional braces so you can choose confidently.
