With over 12 years of experience in dentistry and more than a decade dedicated solely to orthodontics, I provide expert care across all types of treatments—fixed braces, aligners, lingual braces, functional appliances, and early interceptive orthodontics. Whether it’s a straightforward case or a complex, multidisciplinary treatment, my focus is always on achieving the best results for my patients.
I believe orthodontic treatment should be a collaboration. I always ask my patients about their dream smile and work closely with them to make it a reality. It’s never just about what I think is best—it’s about ensuring they feel confident and happy every step of the way.
My patients often describe me as down-to-earth, approachable, and relaxed, which helps make the treatment journey as stress-free as possible. I take pride in being detail-oriented and patient-focused, making sure everyone feels supported—not just at the end of treatment, but throughout the entire process.
I genuinely love what I do. Orthodontics allows me to combine my passion for working with people with the precision and mechanics of tooth movement. I also believe in being available for my patients, which is why I provide my contact details so they can reach out with any questions or concerns before, during, and after treatment.
If you’re considering orthodontic treatment, I’d love to help guide you toward the smile you’ve always wanted

Dr Shankar is very skilled and stylish haha! I had Invisalign done with him and the process was super quick, painless, and effective. Now, everyone compliments my smiles everywhere I go. Thanks Dr Shankar!

I just finished my Invisalign treatment with Dr. Shankar, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! When I first came to see him, my bite was off, and I wasn’t confident in my smile—it was also starting to affect my dental health. From day one, Dr. Shankar was amazing. He listened to my concerns, explained everything clearly, and mapped out a plan that wasn’t just about straightening my teeth but actually improving my overall dental health in the long run. The Invisalign process was smooth, and Dr. Shankar was there every step of the way, making sure my teeth were moving exactly as planned. Now that my bite is corrected and my smile looks amazing, I’m following his advice and seeing a prosthodontist to complete the final restorations. I fully trust his recommendations, and I know the end result will be perfect. If you’re thinking about Invisalign, I can’t recommend Dr. Shankar enough. He genuinely cares about his patients and their long-term results—not just a quick fix. Best decision I ever made!

I recently had a consultation with Dr. Shankar, and I was so impressed by how honest and genuine he was throughout the entire process. I went in thinking orthodontic treatment might be the solution for what I was looking to achieve, but after a thorough assessment, Dr. Shankar explained that it wouldn’t give me the results I was hoping for. Instead of just pushing me into treatment anyway, he took the time to point me in the right direction and even recommended trusted colleagues who could help. It’s so refreshing to meet someone who truly puts the patient first. Dr. Shankar was kind, attentive, and really listened to my concerns. He made sure I fully understood my options and left me feeling confident about my next steps, even if it wasn’t with orthodontics. If you’re looking for an orthodontist who genuinely cares about what’s best for you, I can’t recommend Dr. Shankar enough. It’s clear he’s passionate about doing what’s right for his patients, not just providing treatment for the sake of it!

Excellent Dental Care Experience I recently visited dr Shankar at Waldron dental I couldn’t be more pleased with the entire experience. From the moment I walked in the staff including dr Shankar was very friendly and welcoming. Dr Shankar was incredibly professional and attentive, they took the time to explain about my treatment opitions in a way that was easy to understand and answerd all my questions. I highly recommend anyone to use dr shanker and his team from Waldron dental looking for high quality dental care. He has fixed my teeth and smile and I am really happy now

I just had my consultation with Dr. Shankar, and I was honestly so impressed! From the moment I walked in, I felt completely at ease. He took the time to listen to all my concerns, carefully examined my teeth, and explained everything in a way that was easy to understand. What I really appreciated was how thorough he was. He didn’t just give me one option but talked me through different treatments, explaining the pros and cons of each so I could make an informed decision. There was no pressure, just honest advice tailored to my needs. I left feeling so excited about starting my orthodontic journey with him! If you’re thinking about getting your teeth straightened, I highly recommend booking a consultation with Dr. Shankar, you won’t regret it!

I recently finished my treatment with Angel Aligners, and I am beyond thrilled with my results! As someone who didn’t want traditional braces, this was the perfect option. Dr. Shankar made the whole process seamless, explaining how to use the aligners and what to expect. The aligners were super discreet, and the treatment was much easier than I thought. Dr. Shankar was always available for any questions, and his attention to detail ensured my teeth were perfectly aligned by the end. If you’re looking for a nearly invisible way to straighten your teeth, I highly recommend both Angel Aligners and Dr. Shankar!

My daughter is halfway through her Angel Aligners treatment with Dr. Bala, and we couldn’t be happier with how it’s going! At first, we were unsure if aligners would be a good option for her, but Dr. Bala took the time to explain everything in detail and made sure she felt confident about the process. The aligners have been easy for her to wear, and she loves that they’re nearly invisible. We’ve already noticed a big improvement in her teeth, and Dr. Bala’s support has been incredible—always checking in, answering our questions, and making the experience as smooth as possible. My daughter actually enjoys her visits, which says a lot! Looking forward to the final results!
