Meet Dr. Pascale
I consider myself extremely fortunate to have found a profession that allows me to utilize my creative skills. Orthodontics is such a detail-oriented profession and it is the little details that put the finishing polish on a smile!
Over the years, so many people have put their trust in me to create their beautiful smiles. I love watching my patients gain confidence and improve their self-esteem as their appearance changes. A beautiful smile makes a lasting, positive difference in my patients’ lives; they have improved oral and overall health, as well as an incredible smile. It is wonderful to be able to provide these gifts!
My relationship with orthodontics began when I experienced a smile transformation myself. I could not believe the difference orthodontics made in my smile and my life, and now creating amazing smiles is my passion.
Education and Experience
My Doctorate of Dental Medicine is from Farleigh Dickinson University School of Dental Medicine, where I was inducted into the Omicron Kappa Upsilon National Honor Society for Dentistry. Upon graduation, I was selected as a general practice resident at Long Island Jewish Medical Center. There, I studied all aspects of dentistry and affirmed my passion for orthodontics.
My formal orthodontic education was completed at Columbia University School of Dental and Oral Surgery, from which I graduated with a certificate in orthodontics. In 1998, I received the highest honor in my profession when I earned the title of Diplomate of the American Board of Orthodontics.
Commitment to Continuing Education
I always enjoy learning and staying on the leading edge of advances in my field. I regularly attend continuing orthodontic education courses and study other aspects of dentistry. I have attended the full course of the McLaughlin Lecture Series and am truly grateful for that experience. It has guided and enhanced my delivery of service as an orthodontist.
My memberships in the American Association of Orthodontists and the American Board of Orthodontics enable me to learn from the leaders in our field. I also stay current on research findings and discussions of treatment modalities through journals and other publications.

Beyond the Office
I have resided in New Jersey, first in Paterson and Totowa, before settling in West Orange and Highlands. My best friend is my office support dog Julie. When we’re not hard at work, we enjoy spending time together, especially taking long walks and playing a good game of fetch on the beach. My favorite pastimes include reading, gardening, and decorating.
