Growing up I was spoiled, dentist-wise, by my mom's best friend's husband, Steve Hinkis, so much so that I couldn't even understand jokes involving the pain of dentistry. After Steve retired to live on a golf-course on Long Island, I went to a dentist once on the Upper West Side where I bled for an hour at the hands of a young hygenist and was then admonished for about 3 seconds by I think a dentist for chewing too much on ice. Then I got computer generated "personal" notes from the practice every 6 months reminding me about my next cleaning. Needless to say, I stayed away from dentistry for a while after that.
I will admit I was skeptical when my fashionable then-fiancee recommended I go see Margaret O'Reilly, who she heard about from colleagues at Harper's Bazaar and who supposedly cleaned and whitened the teeth of beauty editors and runway models. Only for our wedding photos, I reluctantly agreed. As usual my wife's instincts were correct and my initial skepticism was unwarranted and unfair.
Margaret O'Reilly turned out to be a wonderful dentist and here are a few reasons why:
*No hygenist, does all the work herself
*A one woman show:
-Answers her own phone
-Makes her own appointments
-Does her own billing
*Didn't get mad, pre-double-root-canal, when I made her review my x-rays with the retired Steve Hinkis (who agreed with her impression and plan)
*When I was in pain, after the double-root canal, I called her up at 1AM and she was sympathetic, scheduled me for an 8AM appointment next day, figured out the problem, and relieved my pain
*Stutters, which proves she's overcome adversity
*Agreed to see my annually instead of every 6 months even against ADA guidelines
*Gave me a discount
*Sends formal reminders that don't fake intimacy, although I feel she knows me well
Have I gone on too long? Give her a call at 212-688-7677.

Another dentist works in Dr. Grossman's office and that is Dr. Jacqueline Winters and I appreciate her dental services very much. She never makes you wait in her waiting room too long - a few minutes at most and the cleanings are just as fast. She doesn't recommend unnecessary treatments and is always willing to answer questions you may have if you ask then or call her later. Her assistants are very friendly.

I love Dr. Silver!! I like him so much, i stopped going to a dentist for over a year when I didn't have the health insurance he works with! Great office (note, they've moved to near the NYU campus but still have the same phone number) super friendly staff and Dr. Silver fully explains everything he's doing and all your options. They have great hours, and Dr. Silver specializes in working with musicians. I feel very comfortable with him and actually am looking forward to my next appointment. Definitely recommend.

I?ve know Dr. Shmuely for over 12 years. He treats very patient like he would treat his own family members. His office is state of the art. He was able to save my cracked tooth when 3 other dentists said it would be impossible to save. When Dr. Shmuely does a root canal, you feel almost no pain. His work is second to none. I would never consider going to anyone else. His compassion, professionalism and dedication to excellence immediately let you know that you made the right choice for your dental care.
Pros: Dedication to Excellence
Cons: None

Dr. Michael J. Maresca and his incredible team have been my team for almost 20 years.
During that time, there was never a moment that I even thought of going anywhere else. Whether it was a weekend emergency that brought Dr. Maresca back to the city to see me rather than having me wait until Monday....or
giving me back something I wanted for many years, my smile... with beautiful white teeth and spectacular Veneers!
For all of this and more, I have recommended Dr. Maresca and his team to my family, friends and now, you!
Pros: A visit to the Dentist can be a positive experience!
