Mention Einstein’s name and people immediately think “E=mc2.”

They don’t usually think “devil” or “health.” And yet, it was Einstein who observed, “The devil has put a penalty on all things we enjoy in life. Either we suffer in health or we suffer in soul or we get fat.”
 
Dr. Scott Stein knows how to take the penalty out of the enjoyment of food and drink…at least as far as dental health is concerned. A graduate of Brighton High and the University of Buffalo Dental School and the Eastman Dental Center’s Department of Orthodontics, Dr. Stein maintains a full time private practice at 20 North Main Street in Pittsford.
 
Additionally, he is a clinical instructor and co-director of the Orthodontic Biomechanics and Orthognathic Surgery courses at the University of Rochester’s Eastman Department of Dentistry, Division of Orthodontics. He has also co-authored articles and textbook chapters on orthodontics.
 
Visit him at work and you are likely to find him discussing more than the state of your teeth. He just might ask you about favorite bands or favorite sports teams.
 
For good oral hygiene and decay-prevention, Dr. Stein has this advice, " Brushing several times a day and practicing moderation when it comes to sweets and sugary drinks will help maintain healthy teeth for a lifetime. Remember, ‘A great smile is unforgettable.’ "
 
Dr. Stein those of comedienne Phyllis Diller, who asserts, “ A smile is a curve that sets everything straight.”
