Dr. Jyoti Srivastava was, “born to do this job”. Or at least that’s what her friends might say. She completely agrees. With
her eye for perfection and passion for excellence, Dr. Srivastava would
gladly admit she's found her true calling.
It came by way of her seemingly unlimited aptitude for all things
design, from the wide expanses of architecture to the inner spaces of
molecular science. By becoming a prosthodontist she's achieved a
pinnacle of dentistry, but not before stopping to get her Masters of
Science in Biophysics. She loves to teach and is currently Associate
Professor, Department of Postgraduate Prosthodontics at NYU College of
Dentistry Graduate Program, where she teaches the specialty to future
prosthodontists.
Her ability to restore good oral health and proper biomechanical
functionality is matched only by her talent for creating beautiful
dental aesthetics. Her devotion and meticulous attention is on display
in the beautiful smiles of her many patients.
Dr. Jyoti Srivastava’s
practice is also a reflection of her calm. Her patients embrace her
personal approach and holistic perspective. There is a tangible sense of
trust between Dr. Srivastava and her patients. With her there is a
knowing that you’re receiving the very finest dental treatment.
Dr. Srivastava has been a trailblazer all her life, especially in
dentistry, where she raised the bar over and over. “I’ve worked my
whole career at pioneering the successful merging of preventive care
with aesthetic consideration for each and every patient.”
As a leading
academic prosthodontist at NYU College of Dentistry, she is on the
cutting edge of advancements in the field. NYU’s program is one of the
foremost centers for dental technology in the world and Dr. Jyoti
Srivastava is helping to shape that debate.
She has a rare talent for
putting together a comprehensive treatment plan for her patients.
Achieving good dental health is the foundation of her work
alongside her knack for creating beautiful smiles and great aesthetics.
Her sensitive touch and calming presence are a relief to each and every
patient that sits in her chair.
Robert G. Castracane, D.M.D.
While the wide-open thrills of downhill skiing may be one of Dr.
Robert Castracane’s favorite pastimes, it is the precision and attention
to detail of implant surgery that inspires his true expertise. As a
graduate of the renowned Misch International Implant Institute, Dr.
Castracane is at the forefront of techniques in implant dentistry.
His
knowledge and abilities are a ready match for the exacting dentistry he
practices, skills he first cultivated as a student at Tufts University
School of Dental Medicine. He knows and values the trust his patients
place in him. His caring attitude is revealed in his sure touch and
comprehensive, restorative dentistry. While he treats each tooth with a
singular dedication, he always keeps in sharp focus the integrative
systems of teeth, bite and smile.
You’ll feel Dr. Robert Castracane’s gift for working with
patients on all the procedures he performs. As a Clinical Associate
Professor at NYU’s College of Dentistry, he stays atop the latest
developments in implant and dental science. He teaches dental students
at NYU about advanced techniques in dental implants and the finer points
of occlusion.
