Dr. Abitbol shares his time working at Smile By Design and Ezra Medical Center in Brooklyn where has practiced for over a decade.
Implant and cosmetic dentistry are some of his specialties, but your visit with Dr. Abitbol might also include a simple filling all the way to a full mouth restoration. Naturally some of the care you need requires more than a gentle touch, but Dr. Abitbol seeks to make sure your visit isnt painful (whether that be physically or financially). Children up to adults have appreciated the careful anesthetic injections he has provided during care, and the testimony from one Smile By Design patients speaks to the other qualities Dr. Abitbol brings to the clinic:
Thank you for your wonderful and professional dentistry work. I greatly appreciate your patience in working with me to significantly reduce the cost of the work I needed. You are a very gifted dentist with a light hand and calm demeanor. Nina
