You know you are in good hands with Dr. Beshar. He created a long-term plan for my dental care that makes much more sense than the constant money drains I had experienced before (mostly because of gum problems); Beshar's plan will actually solve the problem, and he explained it in such a way that I could understand. His professional expertise is clear in his work as a teacher; there's a sense that he rigorously keeps up with the evolutions in dentistry, and he embraces patient care and comfort, taking it seriously as part of what a dentist does -- and not as a problem to be endured. As I listened to him as he worked on me, I observed how exacting he is, how much he wants to get it right. And he has an amazing touch; I have gums that somehow connect to some VERY sensitive neural pain receptors, yet with his care I was able to get through some very deep fillings without novacaine. Strangely, I have a bad psychological reaction to having things touch on both my mid-mouth hard palate and the soft palate at the back of my throat; this has been irritating to some dentists, who have written things like "GAGGER!!!!" on my files -- truthfully, as a simple cleaning produces that reaction as much as anything -- but he has taken it with stride. Another in my family, who has neglected his dental care out of fear for decades, with many missing teeth as the result, finally became convinced that he had to deal with the problems all at once in the most efficient way possible, through a series of appointments over a couple of months. Dr. Beshar's plan for his treatment was so sensible, and the results so clear, that he went through with the process -- with no complaints! I recommend him completely, though with one caveat: The office is not inexpensive, and payment is expected up front for the entire fee. Daniel has been excellent at keeping me informed and breaking down the costs so that insurance money is best used, and he is happy to arrange a payment schedule. It is a shame that dental insurance is so horribly behind in compensating for medically necessary procedures. (We really need an effective protest movement on this issue.) But given that all dentistry, beyond standard preventive care and the occasional filling or crown, costs, Dr. Beshar's office makes sure the cost pays for work that's meaningful and lasting. I wish I had found him before now. read more

Dr. Beshar is a fantastic dentist! I have been seeing him for 30 years, and he has done everything for me, from fixing my bite and curing my jaw pain, to crowns (including fixing a faulty crown done by another dentist), to Invisalign, to cosmetic dentistry. After chipping my front teeth, he made me gorgeous veneers that perfectly matched my teeth and did not look overly large or white or fake, like most veneers do. No one even can even tell I have veneers, not even my own family or people I have known for years. But my teeth look so much better! He has an aesthetic that cannot be taught. He is an artist as well as a great dentist. He is also very fair and honest, and I trust him completely. I see that Eddie Z. had a very negative comment about Dr. Beshar, but I don't think that is typical. Dr. Beshar is lively, funny, and very friendly and talkative, but he also listens and is caring and empathetic. He is a very talented and knowledgeable professional. In addition, all the people who work in the office are wonderful and very friendly, and Dr. Beshar and his office staff use all the latest technology. Luba the hygienist is gentle yet extremely thorough. Daniel, the office manager, will submit receipts to your insurance for you and remind you of appointments by text, email or phone calls, whichever is your preference. Linda, Dr. Beshar's assistant, is kind, funny and competent. The office is a very warm and wonderful place! I highly recommend Dr. Beshar. read more

Dr. Beshar has been my dentist for 20 year and has always joked that my teeth are "boring," I was blessed with no dental problems. That changed dramatically on May 5, 2015 when I was thrown over the handlebars of my bike and landed face-first on the street. My mouth hit first and both of my front teeth were broken, one completely in half, ruining my previously "perfect" smile. My partner called Dr. Beshar's office immediately and he and his staff let us know that they would make time for me as soon as I was able to get there. Fortunately, I was well enough to see them the next day and the treatment I received warrented 10 stars. Not only was everyone tremendously empathetic and compassionate, but the work that Dr. Beshar and Linda did to provide me with temporary front teeth was beyond incredible. In looking in the mirror I could not even tell that I wasn't looking at the exact same "perfect" teeth I had two days before. I will be returning in a few weeks when my mouth has fully healed for my permanent replacement teeth but I can't imagine them looking any better than what I have right now. I have enthusiastically recommended Dr. Beshar to friends, family and colleagues for years, but now will do so having first-hand experience with his expertise in what was for me a very traumatic situation. Thank you, Dr. Beshar, Linda, Daniel and Lubna -- you are truly the best. read more

I never thought I'd say this but I actually look forward to seeing my dentist. Dr. Beshar and his staff are all genuinely nice people who obviously care about their patients. And every time I go there I see that staff morale is high and they are all having fun. They take pride in their work and enjoy their work, especially Dr. B, who absolutely loves dentistry. I don't really get it - his job would bore me silly - but he loves it and is fascinated by it. He and his colleagues are up to the minute on the latest innovations and best practice, so any patient can have complete confidence that they are getting some of the best dental care in the city, which means the best dental care in the world, NYC being No. 1 and all, as I hope you'll agree. Having had a lot of tooth trouble and having worked with many dentists, I'm happy to say that Dr. Beshar and his dedicated colleagues are the best. It also doesn't hurt that they aren't stingy with the nitrous oxide, so I get to bliss out while they're working wonders with my frequently busted teeth. I recommend Dr. B and his staff with enthusiasm and without any reservation. You really can't do better. read more

I am humbled. Dr. Beshar changed my life yesterday. I struggled my entire life with the self-consciousness of having 3 gaps between my four front teeth. Today, I am proud to say that because of Dr. Beshar I have the most beautiful smile ever. I went in for dental bonding and left with two front teeth veneers that make my teeth look better than I could've ever imagined. They are absolutely perfect. Dr. Beshar's care and generosity will never ever be forgotten. He genuinely wants you to look your best and will go above and beyond to provide the best results possible. I had a remarkable experience with the team at his office. They all were patient, kind, funny, down to earth, and treated me like family! Practice Manager Daniel and Dental Assistant Linda are just amazing! If you choose them as your dental care providers, I guarantee you will leave them ready to conquer the world. That's how I felt yesterday and it was the greatest gift of all. With my whole heart thank you Dr. Beshar, Daniel, and Linda. Because of you all my confidence has skyrocketed. I walk around a brand new woman!! :) Shani read more

Astonishing! When my 'regular' dentist casually mentioned I had a cavity, that it wasn't dire, that I could wait a few weeks (or until he an opening in his calendar), I asked Dr Beshar, my partner's dentist, to take a quick look and he did and he said, this is dire, this can not wait and Linda, his assistant, carved out an appointment for the next day and the next day he began ito fill a simple cavity and ended up performing the dental equivalent of bypass surgery (so bad was the decay.) a simple problem turned complex in an instant. The astonishing part? I had no idea there was a problem - his voice as he worked, was nonchalant, casual, even entertaining (which he is) 13 minutes later he had saved my front tooth (which was as it turned was on the precipice of crumbling), (much like our country) and the only thing he said about it was I might need an Advil later (I didn't) . I think there are times when you are vulnerable and people surprise you with their extreme competence and deep kindness and i had forgotten that and it is astonishing when it happens. read more

Dr. Beshar is by far the among most talented and trustworthy dentist in New York City, as well countrywide. Honestly I am not one to leave reviews like such, but just could not help myself....My appointment this week was by far the most impressive dentist visit I've had in my life. In the matter of just a few hours I walked out with all brand new porcelain veneers on my upper front teeth. All of the teeth that I had replaced this visit were made right there in his office while he prepared to install my new teeth. They were being made in the next room! Amazing!! No 3 weeks with temporaries, which in the past my experience. I now have porcelain veneers on all of my upper front teeth which I couldn't be happier. It's unbelievable how real & natural they look. My family, friends, colleagues & even strangers continue to compliment how nice my teeth look which is something I've never had in my life, meaning good teeth until now!!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! Thanks Dr. Beshar! read more

I had such a great experience recently with Dr. Beshar that I felt I needed to share. A 21-year-old French girl staying with us fell and broke 3 of her front teeth. Naturally, she was horribly distraught. We made an appointment with Dr. Beshar who came highly recommended from a close friend. He first calmed her down by detailing his experience treating similar cases (along with a healthy dose of humor mixed in). Then he gave us 3 options, along with the pros and cons of each as well as the cost. Despite it being a difficult case, the result of the treatment was fantastic! Her teeth looked perfect! Everyone in the office was a pleasure to deal with from the first phone call through the last visit. I highly recommend Dr. Beshar. read more

I love this dentist and prior to meeting him and his wonderful staff I was dentist phobic!!! I am still a scary cat when the drill comes out but some things can't be helped. Dr. Beshar is a no nonsense dentist who takes the time to exam you and explain things to you. When you go to an appointment there you feel like you are his only patient. He is not rushing from one room to the other as patients are made to wait. The staff is kind, patient and always friendly. They make you feel welcomed. In addition this office is clean and modern . The equipment is not from the 70's . I still don't like to go to the dentist but this team makes it totally bearable!!! read more

I have been a patient of Dr B's for years and adore him and his staff. They have a true vocation. They are professionals and truly care about doing the best for their patients. The office space is spotless and welcoming in a glorious art deco building on CPW. Daniel, the office manager takes all the headache out of insurance. It is one of the few out of network healthcare experiences I have where I walk out of the office with just a copay, while Daniel takes care of the rest. If you are in the least bit of a nervous nellie when it comes to dental checkups or procedures, I highly recommend Dr B and his team. read more

After 21 years of care, you'd think I could dig up something bad to say about Dr. B & crew, but I'm at a loss. They're lovely, all of them, through and through. In a different day and age, you might say top notch (I see someone else has already labeled their service top drawer). Regardless, they are ceaselessly professional, compassionate, skilled and even, at times, entertaining (that is, if Linda's on her game). I make few recommendations. I write fewer reviews. But for Dr. Beshar, Linda, Luba and Daniel, I gladly make an exception. They are, collectively, the bee's knees. read more

Dr Beshar is actually a team of four people all there to make your teeth as great as you want them to be. I have only good things to say about all of them. I just got my teeth cleaned and Luba is the very best. Dr Beshar has been my dentist for nearly a decade. If I knew about him earlier I'd only have more good things to say. I've just been reading other reviews, and they are all correct especially when they say good things. Please do yourself a favor if you're out looking for a great dentist and stop wasting your time and head over to Dr. Beshar as soon as he'll see you. read more

I am extremely afraid of dentists, and when I met Dr. Beshar and his staff, I immediately knew it was a place where I would be able to work towards overcoming my fears. The hygienist, Luba, is AMAZING. Gentle touch, wonderful personality. Linda, Dr. Beshar's assistant, is great. She totally puts you at ease. And Dr. Beshar - he is absolutely terrific. Patient, thorough, calm, funny and truthful. He does everything he can to make the procedures less scary, and while I cant say I love going to the dentist, I certainly have become far less anxious about my visits to Dr. B! read more

I saw Dr. Beshar for the first visit today and I was so impressed with the breadth of his approach. He covered the waterfront with everything that I should think about for best dental health over many years. In the biggest view, then I could choose what the best next step would be. I also appreciate his approach to planning dental work that needs to be done, but not right away. It makes it all seem more manageable. I would highly recommend Dr. Beshar for anyone who wants a top rate dentist who really cares about the patient's health and experience. read more

Top-notch dental care with a personal touch! Dr Beshar and his close-knit team are consummate professionals who integrate the latest technologies in the delivery of dental care. They take a personal interest in their patients, and follow a holistic approach in assessing and delivering dental health. The office is immaculate and the convenient text message appointment reminders and electronic insurance claims/reimbursements mark a dental office that is as focused on delivering a pleasing contemporary experience, in addition to top-quality care. read more

I had an old porcelain overlay fall off one of my front teeth and needed immediate assistance. I called the office on Monday morning but it was MLK Day so the office was closed. The office message said we could leave a message there and/or call Dr. Beshar's cell phone. I did that and he answered (on his day off) and told me to call the office first thing the next morning and he would accommodate me. And he did. I was so grateful for the personal contact and for the speedy response. The office staff couldn't have been more kind and understanding. read more

Dr. Beshar and his staff are the most customer-friendly office in New York, if not the world! I have had severe TMJ problems for years, and after seeing numerous snake oil salesmen masquerading as dentists, a friend recommended me to Dr. Beshar, and it literally changed my life overnight! His expertise allowed him to immediately zero in on a diagnosis, and he gave me a comfortable dental appliance of his own design that made me pain free that very day! I cannot recommend this practice enough! Thank you Dr. Beshar for helping me! -Sean read more

I am Canadian undergoing dental implant surgery, so I have a partial plate. It broke while visiting New York in May. I made a desparate call to my dentist in Canada, who contacted his friend Dr. Beshar. Dr. Beshar's office contacted me with news that he had an opening when he could see me the following day. In a short time he cheerily repaired my dental work, and I was able to smile through my vacation. What a wonderful generous man. I can't imagine that happening anywhere else. New Yorkers are a generous lot. Thank you Dr. Beshar!!! read more

Dr. Marc J. Beshar and his entire team are exactly what you want from oral health care providers: courteous, kind, professional, and delightful. I've been Dr. Beshar's patient for 14 years, the longest I've ever had any dentist. He came to my wedding, a small gathering of close friends, so that should tell you something right there. He has also helped me with the work I do in ethics. Luba is a terrific dental hygienist. Linda is wonderful too, and Daniel is friendly and efficient. I have just one piece of advice for you: GO! read more
