Some preface: Another dentist drilled deep into my teeth, exposing the nerve, and then said I needed a root canal. While it was unclear from what she said whether she caused the damage, or if my prior filling was damaged before she did work on me, in any case she was adamant that I see her Endodontist friend nearby to get a $2500+ root canal and crown. She also drilled into my upper tooth to fill a cavity that caused extreme pain for months after, which she blamed on my tooth adapting to the filling. To this day I still feel some weird pressure when I smile from her "dental work." She also chipped one of my nearby teeth in the process. In any case, I went to Dr. Young to get a second opinion about the root canal. Although my cavity was pretty deep, I wasn't in a lot of pain for that tooth; Dr. Young didn't think a root canal was a necessity and tried to save the tooth by doing a much cheaper procedure. Anyway, 7 months later and the X-ray shows my tooth is healed. Dr. Young's cleanings and cavity fillings are expensive (especially paying out of pocket like me) but totally worth it. Going to him will reduce your likelihood of paying for much more expensive procedures in the future, so it's just a smart investment to go here for dental work. read more

Dr. Young is an extremely capable dentist who is kind, a very advanced practitioner, and always keeps in mind the needs of each one of his patients. In a word, he is unique. read more

Dr. Young is par excellence in providing dental care. I wholeheartedly agree with ALL the positive assessments. One thing I'll add is that he has a light and gentle touch. I never had drilling without anesthesia but I did! Didn't feel a thing - how awesome is that!!!. His professionalism is impeccable. Highly recommended by a friend, It was my first time to see him. His efficient staff were so welcoming on the phone and in-person. Renee handled my reservation with ease and not in a hasty tone, Lexi who assisted Dr. Young was equally pleasant and efficient, and Nehemie, the dental hygienist thoroughly "scrubbed" every tooth - remarkable cleaning! In summary, I had the best experience ever in a dental office. read more

Dr Young is an incredible practitioner in every respect. Technically advanced, empathetic and very thoughtful. Could not more highly recommend Dr Young. He has been my dentist for almost 23 years and always is available during and after hours. His service mentality cannot be beaten read more

Dr. Young is the only dentist I trust to give me a honest diagnosis This brilliant doctor really believes in saving teeth... he cares , he's honest and has the most gentle manor anyone could imagine . The office is bright, clean and welcoming .. Bottom line he knows how to care for his patients plus his work is simply artistry .. I can't imagine seeing anyone else ! read more

I finally figured out a way to get around the limits of the 5 star Yelp system and the answer was right in front of me all along. Review it again. This is not a revision to my original Yelp on Dr. Stanton Young this is in addition. I'm tossing 5 more stars into the pot, because Dr. Young has arrived. Ladies and Gentlemen not only is he still the kindest, most able dentist I've ever had, but did you know he was also a kick ass amateur architect? Dr. Young has designed an office so bright, clean and contemporary it feels like you are sitting in the healthiest mouth in the world. The new environment he has created for his practice is a perfect reflection of why I will forever refer him to anyone who will listen. He has the latest in technical dental equipment, jazz music echoing delicately through every crevice, bright happy modern art on the walls, family photo's in every room plus floors, walls and furniture glistening as if it was perfectly cleaned enamel. The place is so open and fresh I wanted to hang out and see what kind of cool people it would attract. This is my dentist and he knows that a healthy smile is created by regular checkups, flossing, brushing and creating an environment that removes stress and lets the patient inhale, a deep breath. Bravo Dr. Young - You are a perfect 10! read more

See all

Ok, so this guy must have attended Hogwarts school of dental wizardry! Doctor Young is the freaking Harry Potter of dentistry! Just amazing! His voice is a lullaby. I'm not a fan of traditional, allopathic dentistry so I was please to know that Doctor Young was not averse to alternative treatment options. With a flick of his wizarding drill, he saved my smile. I don't know anyone who says, " Yay I'm going to the Dentist today " BUT a visit to Doctor Young is as pleasant as a dental visit can be. He's pretty swell! Let me not forget his office staff; Renee and Carolina; they are so down to Earth and easy to talk to. I totally dig these guys! read more

I came to Dr. Young as he was recommended by a friend who has been seeing him as dentist for 20 years. Dr. Young has the most pleasant and calm manner. He is very generous with his time and explains everything. He is honest and doesn't try to sell you on any unnecessary jobs. Finally, his office is beautiful and immaculate. I highly recommend him. read more

Dr Young is an excellent dentist I started receiving care from him when someone I knew was speaking so highly of him. I didn't really have a problem with the dentist I had been receiving care, but thought I would get a second opinion from Dr Young. The dentist I had been seeing all of a sudden told me it was necessary for me to lose one tooth and have more periodontal surgery. Well, Dr Young saved my teeth without periodontal surgery. I have been receiving my dental care from Dr Young for about 20 years. Dr Young is an honest practitioner and clearly not out to just make money His fees are reasonable (btw - covered very well with Dental insurance) and his office offers a great relaxing environment All on his team are thoroughly professional with great skill and courtesy. I trust Dr Young completely and intend on receiving my dental care from him always. read more

Stanton is hands down the best dentist I have ever been to. He doesn't over diagnose, and does great cosmetic work. He's also my landlord- so the guy is clearly multi-talented read more

I found Dr. Young through a yelp search for dental bonding, thinking I would need this procedure. I was expecting to pay a lot of money out of pocket to fix a small discoloration that had bothered me. However, Dr. Young saved my tooth without bonding and helped me save so much trouble and money. He is one of the nicest, most patient doctor I have ever met! He took almost an hour for a free consultation to talk me through all my options. I was ready to go with the most invasive option until Dr. Young told me two other options that were least invasive, saving me trouble of having to maintain tooth bonding and even saving me a lot of money. He honestly cares so much about the patient, and not about the business of dentistry. I am so lucky that the least invasive option actually fixed my tooth! His attention to detail and patience is so reassuring. You can tell dentistry is his passion. I am very particular with my dentist and after all of the research I have done for a cosmetic dentist, I am glad I went to him. read more

Went to see Dr Young based on all positive reviews. My visit was primarily to get help dealing with an off bite that had just been caused by a former dentist while getting a new crown. During the consultation I could notice he wasn't really interested in what I was saying but rather offered me to get a night-guard for about $700. On my second and last visit to pick up the night-guard he hardly spent any time with me, his Spanish speaking receptionist was rude as always and treated me like I wasn't even there which I must say was no better than Dr Young's since I was paying him to help me not to help himself. I was told the night-guard will be soft and should not give any problems while sleeping. Let me just say that what I got was a hard night-guard that I couldn't keep on for more than a minute. Hope you enjoyed my $700 Dr Young! Thanks for nothing. read more

Stanton Young provided a treatment plan and cost for the dental work. He agreed to treat me. Young abandoned me four (4) days prior to the procedure. Below is the email sent to me by Young on January 30th. The procedure was to take place on February 1. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Hi, I'm sorry to disappoint you, but after much consideration, I have decided that I am not comfortable treating your dental needs. I wish you well in your search for a dentist who will spend ample time discussing your options and providing competent care at fees you find reasonable. In all sincerity, Dr. Young" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- The only reason I went back to Young was because he said that I could forgo implants and he would do prefab core and post as well as insert crowns for both teeth. The other dentists that I consulted insisted that the teeth required implants. * The abandonment took place so abruptly that I haven't had enough time to find a suitable replacement dentist to take over treatment * The abandonment has taken place when I am still in need of dental attention * I complied with Young's recommendations. According to Young's instruction, I had root canal. Young spoke to the endodontist and gave him instruction to put pins in the core to build and strengthen the structure. It took the endodontist so long to do this that I had to return to him to remove the roots on a second visit which included 3 injections. The endodontist was angry with Young for having him do this task when he felt Young should be doing this work * Stanton Young lacks trust and honesty. When reviewing the treatment plan he actually doubled the fee for the procedure to over $9,000. When I brought this to his attention he said he made a mistake. Young is unethical, negligent, extremely narcissistic, has little compassion and no conscience. It is my understanding that a dentist should provide quality and timely treatment - whatever is in the best interest of the patient. This can hardly describe the unprofessional service rendered by Stanton Young. read more

I love how precise he is with my teeth. He takes the time to evaluate and give helpful advice as to what will be done. I'm thankful to have found a dentist like him. The best part is there isn't a wait so you can be in and out of the office in less than 30 min. the only reason I gave it a 4 star is for the price charged. Although I do understand dental procedures are usually very pricey. I just wish they had discounts. read more

Yes, he's a bit expensive, yes he'll get you to blow $400 on a teeth whitening, and yes, he's most definitely the best dentist I've ever had. My Dr. Young Moment: I'm going to be part of a bridal party next week and finally decided to blow the Benjamins on professional teeth whitening. Dr. Young made sure to take his time explaining and demonstrating how to use the equipment needed to do so. He even called me on his cell phone over the weekend to be sure everything was going OK. For a second there, I thought I was back in the Midwest again! read more

Dr. Young is an amazing dentist--actually my favorite dentist of all time. He is one of the nicest people you will ever meet and his work is exceptional. He believes in personal and individual service before you arrive in his office. Here are some of my favorite aspects of this place: * Handwritten notes welcoming you to the practice * Dr. Young personally performs your dental cleanings, instead of a dental hygienist * He calls to check on you after your dental work is done * He goes over various dental options PRIOR to your dental work, so you know how much exactly your work is going to cost and how much your insurance will cover * Caring perfectionist-you will not leave his office until you and Dr. Young are satisfied with his work * Focuses on Healthy teeth, not just aesthetics I went in to get old cosmetic, chipped bonding replaced as well as for a cleaning and he made me love my smile again! Hands down, best dentist you will find in NYC. read more

I give Doctor Young my highest recommendation. I spent weeks researching NYC dentists and calling offices around the city back in 2011 when I was in the market for a new dentist, and Dr. Young far surpasses everyone else I looked into in every regard, from knowledge, to skill (knowledge and skill don't always go hand-in-hand), to a holistic approach, to amazing bed-side manner, personalized attention and follow-up. Dr. Young is a rare treasure of a doctor, and I feel blessed to be in his care. His personalized care and attention to you as a person are tantamount to his incredible skill, knowledge and talent as a dentist. His work is beautiful both inside and out: his attention to cosmetic detail (he takes before and after shots to document the beauty of his dental artistry for proof) is second only to his attention to your oral health: he is a holistic doctor, and steers far away from any products with chemicals or harmful additives (this is HUGE for me). What has really set him over the edge is his personal attention to the person: he sends hand written thank you notes and holiday cards at every opportunity. He honestly cares about his patients and about human relationships - which is priceless. When I sent a friend to him a few months ago, he not only sent me a hand written thank you note, but also sent a gift card (even better: she called with an emergency on a Friday night, he personally called her back [she wasn't a patient of his yet!], counseled her, and got her in the very next day - a saturday!}. I have never heard of any other such personalized, exceptional care in this day and age. He is as generous as he is talented at dentistry - which are both pretty high bars, as he is extremely talented as a dentist, and extremely caring and generous. More, we had incredible conversations on the role of diet in oral health, and the role of oral health in overall health. He turned me onto Oil of Oregano as a treatment for sinus infections as just one example of his vast knowledge of the intertwining of oral and overall health. I am compelled to write today, and I came into his office yesterday with a big issue, and he got me in today and took care of the entire issue immediately this afternoon, and now - mere hours later - I have a new, perfect tooth!!! You can't do better than Dr. Young. read more

I have been with doctor with for the past 7 years. I recommend him to everyone I know. He is great at what he does: he is calm, detail-oriented, perfectionist, diligent. His office is modern and very clean in the heart of Soho. His staff are great at calling you to remind of appointment or to say you are due for a cleanning again. His tools are all modern. He does what needs to be done and he is not looking to be in a hurry, he loves his craft and it is seen in the great reviews he gets and the great job he always does!!! Beyong his job, he is a great spiritual being!!!! Thumbs up for him!!! read more

Dr. Young is a talented dentist. He is also a super nice guy and his staff is equally great. Highly recommended!

Dr Young is personable and thorough. I've never had such a good clean and polish in my life. His clinic is spotless and his assistant Jess is really sweet. Being able to watch a movie through eye glasses is a great distraction. I would recommend him highly! read more

Dr. Young gave me the best cleaning I have ever gotten (and I have had a lot). There was not a hygienist, so the Dr. did the whole cleaning. He even gave me oil of Oregeno for a possible infection! I needed a root canal according to another dentist and I was seeing Dr. Young for a second opinion. He set me up with his colleague, and root canal specialist Dr. Chan. (Who by the way was also amazing). It turns out I did not need a root canal, she fixed the problem and I actually dozed off while she was drilling! Can you ever imagine dozing off at the dentist? Well now I can say I did. I will be sticking with Noho Dental from now on. read more

After a few months of appointments with Dr. Young, I am just now getting around to giving him a very positive review. Shame on me for taking so long; I had already given another dentist at this practice (Dr. Michelle Chan) a 5-star rating based on my root canal experiences with her, and meant to review Dr. Young at the same time. Anyway, the first thing that comes to mind when I think of this doctor is just how much of a class act he is. He goes out of his way to make sure you are pleased with his services. If you answer his question, "How is that?" with "It's pretty good"...he will respond with an "Ok, but I want it to be perfect." He definitely takes pride in his work, which is great to see. He's very experienced, caring, and always makes sure to check up on his patients. I think there may have been JUST one time when he wasn't able to call me like he usually does due to circumstances beyond his control, and he apologized profusely. I can't remember ever having a doctor who apologized about ANYTHING, but this dentist, who wasn't able to check up on me just once (out of, like, 10 times -- yes, I had to go in that much -- don't judge -- :) ), really wants to excel at every level when it comes to patient satisfaction. He's extremely soothing, too. His calm voice, the office music, and pleasant ambiance all help to relax you. I often feel like I am in a spa! Also, Dr. Young has done a lot of medical volunteering around the world. How can you not appreciate that? I love the fact that he is really well-rounded, holding a variety of interests...I especially appreciate a professional who has a worldly sense of curiosity and what seems to be a liberal arts mindset. He has many talents. And to top it all off, the entire staff here is great. Jessie, who has a variety of duties in the office, couldn't be nicer, too. If you're currently looking for a dentist, I highly recommend Dr. Young. I had never dreaded going to the dentist until I was blindsided by a sudden, serious neurological illness that cause a terrible chain reaction of health-related effects. I was sure that my mouth, which had changed from pretty nice/healthy to lacking in more than a few ways, would make him recoil in his seat, or at least leave him a little confused. However he felt inside, he only presented a sense of confidence that he could address many of my issues. I'm very grateful to my friend who suggested that I make an appointment here! read more

Doctor Young, is a great doctor. He spent so much time with my front tooth. I am very picky about my front tooth. He did a great job. He is professional. He was patient with my not easy going character. Definitely recommended!! read more

I had gaps between my teeth and wanted Bonding, but I did not want it to look like a total make over, Hollywood-style. I wanted it to look as natural as possible, just a little better than before. One dentist thought I needed a 19.000-Dollar procedure with 6 veneers and claimed nothing else would help me - even though I said that I might have a slightly different idea of what looks good. Dr. Stanton E. Young was the exact opposite. He is a fantastic dentist. He is kind and friendly, and absolutely the best when it comes to his job. He understood exactly what I wanted and what I could afford. During the procedure, I could tell how much attention to detail he put in. You can tell that he likes his job and helping people. They went out of their way to get me an appointment - in fact, Dr. Young came in on a day he normally would not have. I am happy I did not search for the cheapest alternatives - although this was very reasonably priced. Dr. Young and his staff made me feel comfortable and at ease at all times. I would not got to any other dentist in New York. read more

Incredible Dentist, incredible work. Kind, warm, friendly, and such craftsmanship rebuilding my two front teeth - Dr. Young is an artist.

What an amazing dentist! I went in based on these yelp reviews for 2 chipped teeth that kept having their bonds fall out and asked him about veneers. He quickly talked me down from the costly procedures and told me he would bond them himself and contour and that his work should not fall out like the others as long as I was careful as to biting into hard things. Not only was his work the best I've had done (had bonds done at 3 different dentists before) but he was super friendly and nice (also very well dressed) and the bonds are still in tact 2 months later without any issues! I couldn't be happier and I will be back here for my cleanings and anything else for sure. read more

my experience here has been different from the other reviewers. I went there twice for cleaning and filling work done. My cleaning was done by a lady and she was very diligent, professional and cleaned up well. Highly recommend her. however i found the dentist very weird, all the time he was boasting about how he decorated the place himself and was also sarcastic about my teeth. i was treated like a kid,i was sort of taken abck by this exp especially given all the positive reviews. i expected the dentist to be a little bit more professional. read more

Went back to Dr. Young after a few years of serious teeth-grinding, and when I do something I give it my all, hence, they were damaged! Was prepared for the worst, ie; alot of pricey work...potentially veneers, yet, sadly, before the damage, I liked my natural teeth and smile.Didn't want to be " that chick with the fake teeth".... Well, being the artist he is, Dr. Young suggested cosmetic bonding, and in a few hours, with no pain, at a reasonable cost, I looked in the mirror and he had restored my old teeth. I was shocked, and thrilled. I didn't have to bring a picture because, as he said, teeth have anatomy, and he just followed the damage pattern and it led to where the teeth used to be. Amazing! I am smiling now. read more

I avoided going to the dentist for 5 years due to a phobia and bad experiences in the past. I finally came here on the recommendation of a neighbor and I'm so glad that I did. Dr. Young is a very patient, kind and skilled provider. He didn't try to sell me on any unnecessary procedures, and I appreciated his conservative approach to treatment (he was willing to try filling on a deep cavity instead of going for a root canal treatment). I was able to get through having treatment done without any anxiety medications, due to the calming nature of Dr. Young and his staff. And I'm so relieved that I'm on the way to good dental health now and in the future. The dentist even called to check in after I had expressed some concerns once my fillings were done. I definitely recommend this practice highly to anyone who needs a dentist. read more

A crown on a root canal tooth fell out. My regular dentist was closed, so I visited Dr. Stanton Young to recement the crown. This was my first visit to his practice, and my experience was positive. I found the doctor to be organized and professional, and the office seemed well-run. I would return in the future. read more

By far the most amazing dentist I have ever been to. Dr Young's attention to detail is truly spectacular. And what a gracious & caring person he is to boot. Truly impressed and so happy I found such a sensational dentist. Highly recommended. read more

Dr. Young is an amazing dentist! I've been going to him for 6 or 7 years now, but had to get a root canal (my first one) a few months ago. I was really nervous about the entire procedure, and worried about how fake both the temp and permanent crown would look. He was so reassuring and answering all of my annoying questions and had the calmest demeanor the entire time, that it really put me at ease. The result was amazing and the crown blends right in. I can't recommend him enough! read more

I moved to LA and decided to be bicoastal just for Dr. Young. OK, and my job and boyfriend. So sue me.

Clean and comfortable office environment where the atmosphere is peaceful and the service, warm and professional. Dr. Young is very attentive, caring, and knowledgeable! And while they don't take insurance and the charges are expensive, this certainly is a quality operation. read more

Thought all these great reviews were by friends He is GREAT with a wonderful friendly office. He follows up and cares. He is very knowledgable and practical. Dentist will try to sell you more than you need but not him. Good ethics and a good eye for your teeth. read more

I have moved around alot. So, I've been to many different dentists. Dr. Young is by far the best dentist I've been to. He takes the time to explain the state of your teeth / tooth and then let's you know what he is going to do to fix them / it. He also takes a more holistic approach to medicine which I appreciate. His new office is magnificent and immaculately clean. And unlike most dentists, Dr. Young rarely keeps you waiting. read more

Stanton is an incredible dentist - thorough, intelligent, warm bedside manner and is always educating his patients on the best way to care for their oral hygiene. Stanton helped me decipher the root cause of my headaches as teeth grinding and created a mouth guard that is comfortable to wear at night and has truly resolved my headache issues as well as the damage I was causing my teeth by grinding in general. Five stars for Stanton. read more

Dr. Stanton Young is an incredibly competent, meticulous dentist. He is incredibly professional, kind, and thorough, taking time to explain his observations and recommendations. I trust him and know that if he recommends a procedure, it's necessary. In my five years of having him as my dentist, I have never been anything but absolutely satisfied. Also, when I need to make an emergency appointment, he's great about fitting you in. He's worth every penny! read more

Stanton Young is one of the best dentists the city has to offer. Not only is his work outstanding but he does not try to guage his patients with unnecessary work. I moved out of the city and decided to try some local dentists in New Jersey. They wanted to replace fillings which didn't need repair. Needless to say I'm back to Dr. Stanton. When you visit him, ask him to show you his photos from his trips to Africa and other poverty areas where he gives to those who would never be able to see a dentist. (He's planning a trip to Haiti soon.) read more

I visited Dr. Young first a week ago. I would not have gone to visit at all had I not had an infected tooth - probably the result of visiting a not-so-caring dentist in the past, who I felt was quite negligent (and possibly criminal). Anyway, so I ended up needing an extraction today, which I could easily see how that could be a hugely traumatic experience for someone. Dr. Young made an attempt to be extra gentle and never rushed things. I definitely felt like I could trust him to do the job right. Anyway, I'm home now and have minimal pain, and I'm glad to be rid of that darned infected tooth. Last week, I got a cleaning by Dr. Young. He was very thorough and when I got home I could see a huge difference. I'm definitely going back for more cleanings and will keep visiting this office. His office space is beautiful, very clean and comfortable. The staff is personable (Ken, in particular, is the person I dealt with) and helpful. I definitely think that there should be an award for best dentist in New York City, and it should go to Dr. Young. I should know, I've been to a ton of dentists in New York City before deciding never to go one ever again... until now. His rate is very reasonable for the quality of service. He's out of network, but his office handles billing the insurance company on patients' behalf so everything is fairly easy. I give this office a high recommend. read more
