Dr. Lorraine Brenner’s orthodontic experience dates back to 2007 when she was an orthodontic assistant while in college. She discovered how much she loved learning about teeth and how they move; and seeing firsthand how valuable an improved bite and smile can be. So much so, that Dr. Brenner decided to dedicate herself to becoming an orthodontist herself. Dr. Brenner obtained her Doctorate in Dental Medicine from Rutgers School of Dental Medicine in New Jersey, in 2014. She furthered her education at Hackensack University Medical Center in New Jersey, where she completed a general practice residency program in 2015. Directly following her general practice residency, Dr. Brenner began her orthodontic training at St. Barnabas Hospital in New York, where she obtained her orthodontic certificate in 2018.

During her time at St. Barnabas, Dr. Brenner served as chief resident, where she assisted in training incoming residents. She also received the “Herzberg Award,” which is given annually to the graduating resident who has demonstrated the highest degree of clinical proficiency. Dr. Brenner is well-versed in the practice of standard braces and appliances and is also tackling advanced cases with Invisalign treatment. She welcomes new technologies and applies the most current state-of-the-art treatment for her patients.

In addition to clinical practice, Dr. Brenner also delights in teaching. She is an orthodontic attending/instructor at Hackensack University Medical Center in Hackensack, New Jersey. In her free time, Dr. Brenner enjoys spending time with family, hiking, biking, and skiing. She earned a gold medal for freestyle skiing at the Junior Olympics in Park City, Utah in 2005.

Dr. Brenner’s professional affiliations include the American Association of Orthodontists, the American Dental Association, the New Jersey Dental Association, and the Bergen County Dental Society. In 2009, she was inducted into the Beta Beta Beta Biological Honor Society. In 2012, she was inducted into the dental honor society, Omicron Kappa Upsilon.
