Dr. Kim and Dr. Kurman have shown me so much support upon my experience. I am forever grateful for the way I was treated the moment I stepped in the door. The staff were all very welcoming and helped me with my fear of dentists. Not only do I smile more, I look forward to my follow up visits. They treat you like family.

This is the Best Dentist Office I've ever been too! Dr. Kim is kind and compassionate & makes me feel at ease. I used to be very anxious about Dental appointments & now I feel calm & relaxed and have had only good experiences there. Judy is a wonderful, caring Hygienist and creates a warm happy atmosphere & everyone in the whole office is friendly & helpful!!

LOOK NO FURTHER!!! Dr. Kim extracted my wisdom tooth in less than 8 minutes. That's anesthetics included. I literally went right back to work after. I did not feel or see him give the shot at all (which is what makes me most nervous) I'm on my second day post op and I feel GREAT!

Awesome! Awesome! Awesome! I've been slacking in seeing a dentist (I was traumatized as a child) so I wasn't too surprised when my front tooth that was attached to a post came out. I couldn't go to work with a missing front tooth (looking like a hillbilly)! After frantically searching through the internet and after reading literally hundreds of reviews from various dentist, I decided to go to Dr Yung Kim. From the time I walked in the door until I left, everyone in the office made me feel comfortable. I was soo pleased with their service that while waiting for my temporary tooth (their lab is in-house) I convinced a friend to switch to Dr Kim.
Thank you!

Dr. Joanna Kurman was extremely skilled and professional. She answered all of my questions and concerns very thoroughly. I was also fitted for a night guard for teeth grinding and it’s surprisingly super comfortable to sleep with. Another time I did the whitening treatment and noticed a difference immediately. I would highly recommend Dr. Kurman and 212.

If I could give more than 5 stars I would. I am usually a little anxious about going to the dentist, so I was nervous to go see a new doctor for a filling. The office staff was all super friendly, and the doctor I saw, Dr. Joanna Kurman was phenomenal. She was very attentive and knowledgeable. I will definitely be going back!

I broke my tooth at the most expected moment on Sunday evening and was so upset. I was literally freaking out so I contacted 212 smiling the following day. 212 smiling was able to squeeze me in first thing in the morning and accommodate me last minute. When I walked in, Gezelle (the receptionist) was so friendly and welcoming and I was immediately taken care of. Dr. Kurman and her assistant Sophath, were professional and QUICK. I was concerned about still making it to work on time and they were very mindful of this even with the fact I was squeezed in for a last minute procedure. They handled my tooth with so much care and wanted to be absolutely sure that I happy with the outcome. I've been to other dentists and this one has been the best, by far! Dr. Kurman did an impeccable job and my tooth looks like it was never broken in the first place! HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS DENTAL OFFICE!

We had such a great experience. Professional and accommodating is an understatement! Dr. Kim is extremely knowledgeable and his staff, nothing short of amazing. After receiving poorly done cosmetic work elsewhere, we were in a desperate situation and in need of a serious fix before a special event that was in just 2 days!! We contacted 212 Smiling and the receptionist understood my desperation and opened up a same day appointment. Upon arrival we were warmly greeted and seen right away. Dr. Kim immediately made us feel comfortable and was very reassuring. The entire staff worked together and very quickly to help us. A+++++ service, highly recommend!! Thank you 212 Smiling!!

If you need a general dentist: this place is excellent. The office is clean, and the staff are friendly and helpful. The receptionist remembers me by name every time I walk through the door! The dental hygienists take their time with cleanings and are very thorough. You don't feel like they're rushing through everything in order to see more patients, unlike some other places. Here, they're always very gentle and take the time to explain what they're doing and how your teeth are. If you need a dental surgeon/specialist: this place is EXCELLENT!! Look up Dr. Kim's certifications if you have any doubts. I'm pretty sure he can fix any problem you have. I've been here for surgery for my gums (yes...it is a thing...), which seemed initially terrifying - Everything I read online said this procedure would take forever and the recovery would be painful. But Dr. Kim calmly talked me through the procedure to reassure me, and the actual surgery and recovery were painless. I did my research before I chose this place for all my dental needs, and it definitely paid off!

Dr. Yung K. Kim is a terrific dentist! I had a horrible bicycle accident in 2014, that resulted in jaw fracture surgery and the need for eight crowns and two implants. Dr. Kim was very thorough and patient throughout the repairs to my teeth. He made the situation stress free and now I am pain free. I am fortunate to have found such a competent, honest, gentle and kind dentist, and highly recommend him. As a bonus, his office is very efficient and helpful. Don’t be confused by earlier reviews about previous dentists in this practice. Dr. Yung Kim recently took over the office from another dentist and the low rating reviews for those previous dentists have nothing to do with Dr. Yung Kim.

This place is amazing. I came in an emergency, needing a flipper and an essix retainer made because the one I had broke. This dentistry group has its own lab where they can make the dental prosthesis on the spot! The staff are friendly and professional, the lab technician works magic and uses the best materials, not the cheap pink plastic that leaves an after taste. I wish they were closer to home.

Dr. Kim is like the BEST dentist in NYC!! I went to Dr. Kim for second opinion after my go to dentist said I need root canal because I had a bad case of cavity on one teeth and new crown for the crack on another. I am soooo glad I went for 2nd opinion because not only did I not need root canal I didn't even have a cavity!!!! I switched to De. Kim right away to fix the cracked crown and that was it!!!!! I'm such a happy camper and Dr. Kim was so nice and gentle that I didn't even feel any pain during treatments which is a key for me because I have low threshold for pain! Usually hated going to the dentist but now that I've found Dr. Kim, I have my oral hygiene back! Thank you so much!!!

I'm from out of town and I found Smiling Dentistry online while getting off the plane. I was in desperate need of a dental replacement and just before heading to the airport, my dentist at home in Florida told me it would take three weeks and 800$. Dr Young was amazing and so were all his staff. They were kind and considerate ..saw me two hours after I got off the plane... moreover, within one hour after sitting in the dentist chair, I had my dental replacement and it cost a lot less than in Florida!!!

Dr. Kim is probably the best dentist I have ever been to. Growing up, we went through a few dentists before we started seeing the dentist I saw for about 10-12 years. After moving to NYC I didn't have high hopes on finding another dentist I loved as much as my former dentist. That was before I was recommended Dr. Kim.
I had my consultation with Dr. Kim and was very nervous, because I had been told by the last dentist I saw in NY that I had 3 cavities that would cost me over $600 to fix. My insurance didn't cover the procedure, so I was very stressed.
Dr. Kim took a look and informed me that I did not have 3 cavities, and in fact only needed to have an old filling re-done. They made my appointment for the following week, where I had my cleaning and filling done. It was well worth paying out of pocket for the filling - Dr. Kim and his staff were professional, friendly and so attentive. I have never had a teeth cleaning as pleasant and painless as I did there! Same for the filling.
It may sound odd but I am looking forward to my next visit!

I'm not a big fan of doctors, dentists, etc. but when you skip out on five years' worth of checkups, a lot of crap builds up on your teeth. Although I really dreaded the checkup and deep cleaning, he was really gentle, knowledgeable, and you can tell how much he cares to share good oral hygiene rather than churn out patients. He was educational and really stressed the importance of healthy teeth and gums. I realized how important regular checkups and flossing is thanks to Dr. Kim.

Dr. Kim is an outstanding professional with excellent bedside manners. He explains each procedure thoroughly and takes the time to do my cleaning and examinations with attention to detail. With other dentists I feel rushed and they do my cleaning rather quickly. His front office staff are friendly and most importantly, take care of all the insurance paperwork efficiently without any trouble. I love the fact that the office has recently been renovated with a clean and modern decor. Overall, Dr. Kim inspires confidence because he takes pride in his work and listens to the patient. By the way, he bought this practice recently (less than 1 year ago), so don't trust the older reviews.

I first went to Dr. Kim after a dental emergency. As a person in long term recovery, my teeth and gums had been terribly harmed from my using days. The tooth holding a temporary bridge fell apart and I was left with a huge gap in the front of my mouth. I could not go to work and was about to start a vacation. Within a matter of days, Dr. Kim replaced my bottom teeth with an over denture and had a partial bridge made for the top. I was sedated and walked out later that day with a full set of teeth! It took a few months to completely heal but it gave me back my smile and my life. It is over a year and a half later and this anxious patient now goes to the dentist without trepidation. I also need to mention that I was very sick when I first went to 212 Smiling and diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis. After my procedures, my symptoms began to lessen and I am now healthy and symptom free! Thank you Dr. Kim!

I would highly recommend Dr. Kim for gum-graft surgery. Beforehand he took the time to answer my questions about the procedure. His patient, calm manner was even more of a plus during the surgery itself. When the gum healed, everything looked as good as new. Thank you, Dr. Kim.

Dr. Kim and his staff were super sweet, helpful, and knowledgeable. I always get so nervous and stressed when I have dentist appointments but he talked me through everything as he was doing it and he was very patient and kind. I knew I was in good hands and I am thankful he took the time to explain things. I was seen right away, clean environment, great staff, amazing work. I will definitely be making future appointments there.

This dental office is the best. This was the first dentist that I went to in NYC when I moved back 5 years ago and although they didn't take my insurance at the time, I stayed because the staff was so friendly and inviting and I know I can always depend on fantastic service. Thanks for being so awesome and especially glad you are right in the neighborhood. Also very much appreciate the ability to make evening appointments. Furthermore, the newly remodeled office is visually pleasing, bright (just like white teeth after a visit to this dental office) and is new and improved. Would definitely recommend. Thank you!

Dr. Kim is a great dentist who inspires trust. Generally speaking, I have been too busy to prioritize my oral hygiene. I'm getting towards middle age and realize my neglect will only exacerbated my issues. I have seen him 6 times for these issues including 2 root canals. I have about 3 more visits, one for a deep cleaning and 2 for crowns. He basically examined my teeth on my initial visit and put me on me on a recovery plan. Fortunately, I have insurance to make this possible. My teeth feel stronger, food doesn't get stuck in gaps, and I can eat sweets again. I saw him regularly for 2 months and have another month to go. I'm confident that after this, as I am not crazy about going to the dentist, I will just have to go to my twice annual cleaning for the next decade plus. I'm glad I bit the bullet and agreed to my dentists recommended aggressive recovery plan. Dr Kim is on the younger side as dentists go, very precise in his actions, passionate about his craft and has great bedside manner. Highly recommend. Dr Kim bought the practice at this location a few months ago. Therefore, for an accurate rating, you should just read recent reviews only.

Dr. Kim and the team are a delight. I was extremely embarrassed and scared of going to the dentist because it's been such a long time since I've seen one. Dr. Kim made me feel extremely comfortable and the entire team was extremely helpful in making my visit a very pleasant one. I'm looking forward to my next meeting.

Everyone here is kind, attentive and willing to help. I went in for TMJ pain and they talked with me about all my options. We discussed what I've already tried and what I can do better to ease the pain. A few treatments later and I've never felt better. And when I do have a problem, they're quick to get me in.
I used to place dentist offices on the same level as the DMV. Not anymore.
