Meet Dr. Wilbur
Andrew Wilbur, DMD, MS
As a young person I experienced orthodontic treatment as a patient, and the experience made quite an impression on me! I was amazed at the process, and also the skill and personality of the treating doctor. From that moment on, a career in orthodontics was in the back of my mind.
As a doctor I give my very best to each patient that walks through my front door. As part of that commitment, I enjoy making the process of orthodontic treatment a fun & positive life experience that my patients will always remember! I feel fortunate to interact with so many wonderful kids and families every day. In particular, it gives me great joy to help young people feel good about themselves - this is the reason that I decided to become an orthodontist.
Education/Experience
I was valedictorian of my class at St Augustine Prep High School; I received a Bachelor's degree in Chemical Engineering from Villanova University in 1995 which I attended on full academic scholarship; My Doctor of Dental Medicine degree was earned at the University of Pennsylvania in 1999; I continued on to the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center for orthodontic residency where I completed my Master of Dental Science and received my Certificate in the Orthodontic Specialty in 2002.
Continuing Education
I am committed to staying at the forefront of advancements in the orthodontic field and frequently attend continuing education seminars. Some specific professional seminars/presentations that I have given reflect some of my personal areas of interest:

- Modelling Fracture Resistance of Monocrystalline & Polycrystalline Ceramics
Community Involvement
I am New Jersey native and have lived in the Princeton / Montgomery area for over 15 years. I enjoy the outdoors, spending time with my wife Nicole, and also especially love Labrador Retrievers and the Atlantic Ocean!
I believe in strong community involvement. Mountain View Orthodontics is a proud sponsor of the following youth organizations:
- Montgomery Baseball League

Our office makes significant donations to local schools and has provided thousands of dollars of financial support to our patients in various fund-raising, educational, and extra-curricular endeavours.
I have been involved with Operation Smile, which provides free specialty care to repair cleft lip, cleft palate and other facial deformities for children. I have also worked with the local animal welfare organization serving the greater Princeton area called SAVE (right next door to our office).
