Irwin Smigel
Unlike many dentists, who depend on a lab to build the right-size crowns, Irwin Smigel prefers to order his crowns overbuilt and shapes them himself on the patient. He also widens the teeth on the sides and the back of the mouth to support the muscles in the face and around the mouth and reduce wrinkles. Smigel has been president of the American Society for Dental Aesthetics for 28 years, since its inception, and he trravels to Asia and Europe teaching cosmetic dentistry. Kelly Ripa, Jimmy Fallon, and Diane von Furstenberg are among his notable smiles. 635 Madison Avenue, near 59th Street, (212-371-4575).
