The professionalism of the team is outstanding. They are accessible when you have an issue like pain and always seem to go above and beyond to find and fix the problem. Dr. Shuck and his Dental assistant Katherine are great, so glad my son Matthew referred me to them when we moved back to VB two years ago.

Dr. Ryan Shuck made quite “the splash” ( Aquaman’s twin)! Dr. Shuck is a great addition to The Art of Denistry! Compassionate, Competent & Comedic, The 3 “Cs” that are worthy of “Aquaman”:) But seriously, an A+/ 5 star for him & the entire Artistry Family! You will leave there with a bigger more beautiful smile:). Thank y’all!Welcome aboard, Brittany! Your soft touch with a thorough cleaning is such a gift🎁 No fear in your chair! Appreciate your skills🦷🪥

They were a little busy. They were a little behind. But once I was called back it was a breeze. They even gave me a Dunkin donuts gift card for my wait. Which they didn't have to, I really appreciated it! Great dentist, gentle and quick. I highly recommend this dentist.

Recently visited The Art of Dentistry for a refresh of an old filling and Dr. Dorfman was great. I hate all things related to dental visits, but Dr. D and Chris made me feel right at ease. The procedure was quick and painless. And my teeth look fabulous! This practice has been serving me well for over 15 years. Everyone from the front desk personnel to the billing department is top notch!

I am a long time patient. Dr. Ryan Shuck did an excellent job installing a crown, which was pain free, and the fit is perfect. They employ the latest technology, and even fabricate and install the crown on the same day of the procedure. Drs. Dorfman and Shuck are doing a good job of carrying on Dr. Horowitz’s legacy of quality and pain free dentistry !

I have been going to The Art of Dentistry for a few years now and let me tell you, in my 42 years on this earth, I have never had a better dental care team. For every appointment, whether it's a cleaning, root canal, filing, or just a consult, they have made me feel welcome and comfortable. And for each procedure I have never had any issues. They are awesome!

This is going to be LONG!My PCP found that I had an infection due to a toothache that was going on for about a month, so I was scheduled in for an ASAP dental appointment. I was devastated knowing that my little tiny tooth in the front that was causing me so much pain was cracked in 2 places causing me to have an infection in my gums. Let me tell you when Dr. Dorfman and his Assistant Chloe gave this 41 year old momma the news that my tooth couldn't be saved, they saw me cry like a big ol' baby. It was a hard pill to swallow. I was scared and I was a wreck but they took care of me emotionally! Even his coordinator Lee, was so kind to allow me to vent on over the phone, she was so patient with me and took the time to explain things to me so I wouldn't be so scared. It put me in a better spot mentally.Fast forward, I just got my tooth pulled on July 23rd, surgery went smoothly and I actually didn't cry at all. There was a mishap with my flipper/partial and yes I was frustrated but they went above and beyond to make sure I would have my smile again until I get my partial & implant done! Chris, was amazing helping put my temp retainer in, to adjusting it and she also made sure to fix my night guard properly bc I still grind at night like crazy. 🤦🏽‍♀️Another thing, all of the front desk staff are so kind and welcoming, but my girl Lee is the BEST idk but God surely made her such a patient person. She made me feel at ease Everytime we spoke! And sweet Chloe, girlfriend although I wasn't on the beach that day, you made me feel so comfortable! Dr Dorfman, YOU ARE THE MAN!!! When I tell I told him I put my trust in him, I literally put my whole trust in him and he rocked! He took great care of me from the beginning. He tried to be as gentle as possible, there was a lot of infection in there, and he explained post-op care in laymen's terms for me to understand. He answered every question I had and he made sure to rush my temp retainer so I would have my smile back! We even joked around because that's my only coping mechanism. I said Lord Jesus here he comes! And he said "Lord Jesus"! 🤣🤣🤣 It was hilarious and made me feel comfortable!Finally, it's going to be a long journey since I'm getting a tooth implant but I am so glad my journey is with this crew!!! They are amazing!!!Here's my before and after! They did an amazing job on my temporary retainer bc NO ONE noticed that my tooth is actually gone!I felt extremely confident and happy. I can't wait to get my tooth Implant, because I know they will do an amazing job!!!

If you're looking to give your teeth a great home, come here.

We have been going to The Art of Dentistry for 40 years. This includes myself, husband, son and father. Dr. Abbey Horowitz took care of us until he retired. The practice has been cultivated into a wonderful caring team from the office staff to the hygienists with Dr. Darren Dorfman and Dr. Ryan Shuck at the helm. I am so thrilled to now have straight teeth from a 3-1/2 year Invisalign plan! This shows the perseverance and compassion of this practice in giving their patients the best possible care and outcomes. My husband's plan, though, only took a year! Yesterday, my Steve and I just had our cleanings with Nancy and Abbey, both excellent hygienists, very caring and professional. We continue to look forward to seeing Dr. Dorfman and the rest of the team for all our dental needs!

I have never had a fear of going to the dentist, however the last office I visited really did a number on me both physically and mentally. In search of another new office, I came across The Art of Dentistry, and there is no looking back. The front office staff was warm and welcoming and made the check in process a breeze. All of the hygienists and techs I have had the pleasure of working with so far have been so wonderful; they are just as knowledgable as the dentists, they are welcoming, patient, understanding, flexible, and so much more. I also had the pleasure of working with Dr. Shuck for an intake exam, cleaning, filling and crown. He ensured my comfort the entire time and continued to remind me that during my appointment, I was in control of when to take breaks and such. He regularly checked in, added a dash of humor throughout the appointment, and really assisted overall in overcoming any nerves that came up. I am so blessed to now be a patient of Dr. Shuck and his team and look forward to the future of my dental health!

I couldn’t be happier with my experience at The Art of Dentistry! I was a new patient with a dental emergency, and during my first appointment they were able to not only assess the situation and provide multiple options, but also begin the procedures to address my issue. I at most expected a consult with follow up appointment(s) to begin the work so I was absolutely ecstatic to leave my first appointment with the necessary work well underway!The team was thorough, communicative and super friendly! 5 stars - so glad to have found The Art of Dentistry!

Dr. Dorfman is such a delight to be around and you can tell that he really cares for his practice and all the people in it. Can’t express how great this place is! They feel like family and I can’t wait to go back 🙂

I have been a patient of this dental office for over 20 years. They are the absolute best! Dr. Horwitz is very professional, yet personable and makes each visit fun. Melissa (Lissy) has been my dental hygienist for years. She's awesome as well. I highly recommend this dental practice! Ramona5/14/24 Visit - I still highly recommend this dental practice, but I have two suggestions. Please remove the notice requesting that patients not inquire or comment about about the death of Dr. Horwitz. It made me sad to be reminded of his death when I arrived for my appointment on Tuesday. If someone inquires or comments, perhaps that person could be told that inquiries or comments make the staff sad or uncomfortable, rather than signs being posted to that effect. My second suggestion is that patients not be referred to by their first names, unless they have requested it. I did not like the dentist doing so. You're still the best!

I have been a patient for more than 20 years. The office is professional, the staff is courteous and helpful. I would not go anywhere else for dentist work.
I’ve had the pleasure of being a patient with The Art of Dentistry for approximately 39 years and not once have I ever questioned or worried about the care that I was receiving. It’s the one place that I go where piece of mind goes hand-in-hand with the procedure or cleaning. I can say enthusiastically without a doubt, The Art of Dentistry will be my dentist as long as I have teeth. I wouldn’t trust anyone else the way I trust them. PERIOD.

Went here at the recommendation of family members. Was looking for a new dentists’ office and was very pleased with my experience. I requested an appointment online and someone called to schedule the next day, and they were able to fit me in within the month. Most places near me were/are booked out 3+ months. My hygienist and dentist were wonderful, along with everyone else I encountered in the office. They were very thorough, and efficient, and explained everything to me, unlike other offices I’ve gone to in the past. They aren’t even in network with my insurance, but I will continue to go to this practice just because of the great service I received there. If anyone I know is looking for a new dental practice, I will be recommending The Art of Dentistry, they were great.

When I was a kid, I dreaded going to the dentist. I've been going to "The Art of Dentistry" for a decade now, and, while I must admit I don't look forward to it, I certainly don't dread it! Most of my teeth demonstrate their "art" in dentistry. Great group of people to work with...top to bottom. If you're reading this in an effort to decide if you want to be a client...go no further. Give their office a call.

The only dentist I'll go to as long as I live here! Jennifer Acker is a fabulous dental hygienist - she's very effective while causing no pain during cleanings, and she's so kind and enjoyable to spend time with. Dr. Dorfman is my favorite dentist ever; kind and trustworthy, I know that he's got my best interest in mind and he doesn't recommend unnecessary procedures. Our whole extended family comes to this office and I 100% recommend the team at The Art of Dentistry.
