We recognize that all of our patients are unique and deserve to receive orthodontic care that reflects their individual needs. Our experienced and talented team is committed to working with you and your family to create a comfortable, stress-free, and rewarding orthodontic experience every time you visit our practice.

I was born in Washington, D.C. and raised in Prince George's County, Maryland. I currently attend UMGC and major in Accounting. I've been in the dental field for more than 4 years and have developed a love for Orthodontics. I enjoy working at Shefferman Orthodontics. Here I am able to combine my passion for dentistry and finances every day!

He also treats more dentists' families and children than any other office in the area.
We understand your need to receive treatment in a practice where you feel comfortable, safe, and welcome. Please feel free to schedule an appointment, or stop by for a complete tour of our practice.

We understand that choosing to receive orthodontic care is a big decision, and we respect your reasons for wanting to improve the way you look and feel. Our practice will work with you every step of the way to make sure that your orthodontic care is as rewarding as possible.
The cost of your orthodontic treatment will vary depending on your individual needs and treatment plan. Our staff will discuss with you the cost of your treatment and each available payment plan option, so that you can make the best choice for you and your smile. We will work with you to create a payment plan that fits your budget, and you will know what to expect before beginning treatment.
If you'd like to share some kind words and smiles, please ask our front desk staff for a comment card at your next appointment. We'd love to hear about your experience! When I first came to you, I was struck by how kind and thorough you were in addressing my concerns, recommending a course of treatment and correcting the problems with my bite.

Amazing office staff!! We are not patients and were traveling. My son forgot his rubber bands. They welcomed us into the office and helped him find the right size would not accept any money. They were so helpful and kind. If they do this for an out of town non-patient, I can only imagine how great they would be for patients. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a great orthodontist office!!

The people working here are so kind and competent! We are not patients of Shefferman Orthodontics, but found ourselves in situation with a wire from my daughter’s braces cutting her cheek and our regular practice closed. I did a Google search, found Shefferman’s, called, and the woman I spoke with was kind and helpful. They agreed to see us that same morning, and when we got there, my daughter got the best service! She felt very comfortable in their presence.They took the time to make sure both sides of her mouth were comfortable. Dr. Shefferman himself chatted with us and gave us some great

What a wonderful experience! I was visiting family in DC, and my 10-year old daughter lost a tooth, but it was stuck on the wire in her braces. I found Dr. Shefferman’s office online., They saw us same day, on a holiday, when they weren’t officially seeing patients- even though she wasn’t a patient of his. He and his staff were so kind to my very worried daughter and did an excellent job. I cannot recommend highly enough!

As an older patient, I appreciated the subtly of the invisaline trays. It was great to get this problem solved in such a comfortable way.

Asbed and the team were wonderful in helping me with replacement retainers as an adult. They gave me a variety of options at reasonable price points. I now have my orthodontist in town that I’ll recommend to anyone who asks

I am an adult with ongoing TMJ discomfort. One dentist had recommended getting every single tooth (!) on my bottom jaw capped to adjust my bite to rid me of the issue. When I went to Dr. Shefferman for a second opinion he proposed a much less-invasive approach. Through use of retainers, including a night-guard, in about six months my bite has re-set and I only need to continue with the night-guard. I am hugely grateful to Dr. Shefferman for his wisdom, vision and gentle approach.
