Meet Our Orthodontists in West Caldwell
I grew up in Manalapan, NJ and started down the path of orthodontics by earning a Bachelor of Science from Pennsylvania State University. I went on to earn my Doctorate of Dental Medicine from Temple University School of Dentistry, where I graduated as the top student in my class and was elected into the Omicron Kappa Upsilon National Honor Society. I remained at Temple to complete an orthodontic residency program and earn both a specialty certificate and a Master of Science in oral biology.
I’m proud to say I’ve been voted one of New Jersey’s top orthodontists in New Jersey Monthly Magazine, and a favorite of families in Northern New Jersey in New Jersey Family Magazine. My office is fun and casual but we’re serious about what we do. We’ve even been honored by the New York Jets as the team’s official orthodontic healthcare giver!
Away from work I enjoy playing golf and softball, physical fitness, and spending time with my family. My wonderful wife Jennifer and I have two sons, Ian and Jordan.
Dr. Alyssa Kist was born and raised in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, with her parents and two sisters. After earning her Bachelor of Science degree from Villanova University, Dr. Kist attended the Temple University School of Dentistry. There, she earned her Doctor of Dental Medicine degree, where she finished at the top of her class and was selected to join the Omicron Kappa Upsilon Dental Honor Society.
Dr. Kist then earned her specialty certificate in orthodontics and dentofacial orthopedics at the University of Pittsburgh School of Dental Medicine, while also completing her Master of Dental Science degree. With a passion for orthodontics and a dedication to patient-centered care, Dr. Kist brings skill, compassion, and values that reflect the heart of Rothenberg Orthodontics!
When she’s not seeing patients, Dr. Kist enjoys spending time with her partner, Tim, going for runs outdoors, traveling, watching football, and trying new restaurants. She also loves to spend weekends at the Jersey Shore!

“Wonderful experience! Staff couldn’t be nicer and more accommodating. Thank you!”
“Great staff, great Dr. Attentive and helped the process go smoothly.”
“Dr. Rothenberg is wonderful! His bedside manner is so compassionate. He took his time answering all of my questions and clearly explained the orthodontic process. I especially appreciated how he included my 8-year-old daughter in the conversation and asked if she had any questions too. He’s smart, patient, and made the whole experience feel very comfortable. Highly recommend!”
“Doctors and staff are always extremely nice and comforting. I’m happy I chose them!”
“Extremely run office! Always on time and people couldn’t be nicer!”
