Background & Approach
Meet Dr. Singer
Dr. Andi Singer combines specialty training in orthodontics with a craniofacial orthodontic fellowship at NYU Langone Hospital. She earned her dental degree at McGill University and completed a Master of Science in Craniofacial Science and Diploma in Orthodontics at the University of British Columbia.
Her fellowship involved interdisciplinary care for patients with craniofacial differences and special care requirements. Her clinical interests include growth modification, airway health, and collaboration across specialties.
Her research spans clear aligner treatment, orthodontic appliances, and presurgical infant orthopedics for cleft lip and palate. At AOS, her orthodontic perspective contributes to coordinated assessment of the teeth, bite, and facial structures.
Her clinical perspective brings together orthodontic tooth movement, growth, facial structures, and collaboration across specialties. Research in infant cleft care and orthodontic treatment adds to her interest in understanding both treatment outcomes and the experience of care.
