Meet Dr. Lilly Padilla
Dr. Lilly Padilla is one of the few Board-Certified Orthodontists specializing in the care of children, teens and adults. Originally from Georgia, Dr. Padilla’s journey to dentistry was atypical. From a bad experience at the dentist as a child, she knew she never wanted to be a dentist. It was not until she was in her undergraduate studies where she worked in a dental office that she realized dentistry was a possibility.
After graduating with a Bachelor of Science from Oglethorpe University in Atlanta, Dr. Padilla earned her Doctor of Dental Surgery (D.D.S) degree from the #1 Ranked – University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) School of Dentistry. At UCSF, in addition to winning numerous scholarships & awards for academic, research and volunteer achievements she got to work with the Co-Discoverer of HIV.
Upon graduation, she moved to New York City to complete her 3-year Orthodontics specialty training at the NYU College of Dentistry. As the Chief Resident, in addition to treating patients, she monitored & mentored fellow dental students performing and maintaining a superb standard of care.
Dr. Padilla is passionate about helping patients restore their confidence and self-esteem by giving them a new beautiful smile. She is committed to providing excellent orthodontic care by ensuring that her patients have a positive orthodontic experience from early childhood throughout adulthood. More importantly, she enjoys developing long-term relationships with her patients.
Outside of creating beautiful smiles, Dr. Padilla enjoys reading, watching movies, spending time with her Wire Fox Terrier Einstein, trying new restaurants and traveling with her husband George.
