WHY NYC DENTAL SMILES
At NYC Dental Smiles, we believe exceptional dentistry begins with a deeper commitment—to your health, your comfort, and your long-term well-being. Founded by Dr. Edgard El Chaar, our practice was created to redefine what dentistry can be: comprehensive, medically informed, and delivered with the highest standards of clinical excellence.
Our team of distinguished professionals brings together expertise in cosmetics, restorative, implant dentistry, and preventative care, united by a shared philosophy: that oral health is inseparable from overall health. We take the time to understand each patient’s unique needs, educate with clarity, and design care plans that are both proactive and personalized.
From the moment you walk through our doors, you’ll experience a calm, welcoming environment where your comfort is prioritized and your time is respected. Every detail—from our advanced technology to our meticulous approach to treatment—is designed to ensure precision, longevity, and peace of mind.
At NYC Dental Smiles, we don’t just treat smiles—we elevate health, confidence, and quality of life.
PATIENT-FIRST PARTNERSHIP
At NYC Dental Smiles, our philosophy is anchored in Dr. Edgard El Chaar’s evidence-driven, ethics-first approach: precision treatment planning, uncompromising quality, and compassionate care. Dr. El Chaar serves as a Clinical Professor in Periodontics at Penn Dental Medicine and previously led advanced training at NYU—experience that informs our protocols for implant dentistry, periodontics, and complex cases across our Manhattan locations.
Beyond the operatory, Dr. El Chaar is a published author and educator. His book Practical Techniques in Periodontics and Implant Dentistry is used by clinicians globally, and he hosts a podcast focused on oral-health insights for both patients and peers. That commitment to knowledge-sharing and transparency shapes how our team communicates, collaborates, and elevates outcomes every day.
LIFE AFTER TREATMENT: SMILES, FUNCTION, CONFIDENCE
At NYC Dental Smiles, we don’t define success by how a smile looks the day treatment ends – we measure it by how our patients feel months later. That’s why we follow up well after care is complete, asking thoughtful questions about their comfort, confidence, and quality of life. Their responses offer clear, meaningful insight into what truly matters: the ability to eat comfortably, speak freely, smile with confidence, and feel assured that their investment in care was worthwhile.
