About

Nestled in the heart of Manhattan's historic and vibrant Chinatown at 105 Mott Street, New York Dental stands as a cornerstone of oral health and wellness for the diverse communities of Lower Manhattan and beyond. For over a decade and a half, this esteemed practice has built a legacy of trust, combining world-class dental expertise with a deeply compassionate, patient-centered approach. The clinic was founded on a simple yet powerful principle: to deliver exceptional, accessible dental care in an environment that feels more like a sanctuary than a sterile medical office, breaking down the barriers of anxiety and misunderstanding that often surround dental visits.

The mission of New York Dental is to empower patients through lifelong oral health. The team believes that a healthy smile is integral to overall well-being, confidence, and quality of life. This philosophy drives every interaction, from routine cleanings to complex full-mouth rehabilitations. The practice is dedicated to providing comprehensive care tailored to the individual needs and goals of each patient, whether they are a long-time neighborhood resident, a busy downtown professional, or an international visitor seeking top-tier treatment in New York City.

What truly sets New York Dental apart is its seamless fusion of advanced technology, continuous education, and genuine human connection. The clinical team, led by highly skilled and experienced dentists, invests in the latest digital dentistry tools, including intraoral scanners, digital X-rays, and CAD/CAM technology for same-day crowns. This technological edge enables precise diagnostics, minimally invasive treatments, and stunning, predictable aesthetic results. However, technology is always wielded with a gentle touch and clear communication, ensuring patients are informed partners in their care journey.

The practice's expertise spans the full spectrum of modern dentistry. They are particularly noted for their proficiency in cosmetic and restorative procedures, such as porcelain veneers, dental implants, and Invisalign® clear aligners, which can transform smiles with remarkable discretion and efficiency. Their preventive care program is rigorous and educational, aiming to intercept problems before they develop. Furthermore, they excel in managing complex cases that require multi-disciplinary coordination, all under one roof, providing unparalleled convenience for the patient.

New York Dental's unique value proposition is deeply rooted in its community-centric location and culturally sensitive care. Serving the multilingual tapestry of New York, the staff is fluent in English, Mandarin, Cantonese, and other dialects, ensuring clear communication and comfort for a wide patient base. The clinic’s ambiance—calm, modern, and welcoming—is intentionally designed to alleviate the stress often associated with dental appointments. This commitment to a holistic patient experience, from the ease of scheduling to the warmth of the front desk and the thoroughness of follow-up care, creates a loyal patient family and stellar reputation.

In a city teeming with dental options, New York Dental distinguishes itself through its unwavering commitment to integrity, excellence, and personalized relationships. It is not merely a place where teeth are fixed; it is a trusted health partner dedicated to crafting beautiful, healthy smiles that last a lifetime, all from its iconic address on Mott Street.

Blue Sky Dental was recommended to me by my lifelong dentist, who had retired. The practice is run by a husband and wife team: Dr. Kevin Chan and Dr. Molly Lim. I've been seeing Dr. Kevin for the past two years and highly recommend this practice! Don't be fooled by the modest office- it's not a trendy dental boutique, but you can trust that the doctors treating you are beyond knowledgeable and care deeply about their patients. They've seen it all and their expertise and skill truly show in everything from routine cleanings to more specialized procedures. Dr. Kevin takes the time to explain everything (including the latest developments in whatever treatment you're getting if you care to know the details), and you can trust that they'll never "sell" you on any unnecessary, expensive procedures (unlike the guy I went to between my first dentist and Blue Sky). I recommended Dr. Kevin to my parents and they loved him so much that they literally drive two hours into the city from another state every time they need dental work.

Dr. Molly and Dr. Kevin are the best. They are very attentive and caring. After decades with them, I continue to see them even though I live far away - they are worth the trip! I have tried other dentists when I HAD TO and no one comes close. They are super clean, gentle, and detail oriented. They see folks of all ages and will work with you no matter your situation. Their staff are also great and efficient.

It's so hard to find a good dentist who care and professional. I'm so happy to found Dr. Lee who is gentle and yet does a great job on my teeth whether I need a cleaning or filling. He is very experienced, patient and listen to my concern and works on my teeth with exceptional skills and time spend where doesn't hurt or worst bleed. The staffs in the office are very polite and friendly. Whenever I need an appointment, they always squeeze me in. I highly recommend Dr. Lee to anyone who looks for an experienced and caring dentist. He is the best dentist I ever have.

Dr. Molly Lim and her husband own Blue Sky Dental Center. They work together in the Blue Sky Dental Center office and are both fantastic dentists. I've seen Dr. Molly since I was about 8 years old and continue to do so now. It's been over two decades and we're still going strong. I had to try a different dentist once when I was a little girl because my father changed insurance to one that Blue Sky Dental Center didn't accept, but after a terrible general cleaning with the other dentist, my parents switched to another insurance that Blue Sky Dental Center would accept so I could see Dr. Molly again. When I became an adult, I made certain to purchase dental insurance that Blue Sky Dental Center accepts so I could stay with the awesome Dr. Molly. One time, Dr. Molly asked if I was willing to have her husband perform my annual cleaning or reschedule, but that was only because she was dealing with an emergency. Of course I was fine with him doing my cleaning. Turns out, he's an excellent dentist too. Dr. Molly is phenomenal with not just adults but also with children. Her ceiling is decorated with adorable Disney and Hello Kitty stickers, which is extremely kid friendly. An absolute pleasure to see, she is extremely personable, screens for oral cancer at every routine checkup, does oral x-rays, takes time to demonstrate brushing and flossing techniques if needed, can create mouth guards if you grind your teeth in your sleep, is adept at handling fillings, performs thorough yet gentle general cleanings as well as the rare deep cleaning when needed, apologizes when she does deep cleaning near any of my sensitive gum areas even though she is really careful and as gentle as possible, has sunglasses on hand for patients of all ages who are sensitive to the brightness of the dentist chair's lamp, and more. Really, the list goes on and on. I can't praise her enough. My only complaint is that I have to book appointments months in advance because she is in such high demand. Dr. Molly, her husband, and her staff are fantastic. Even if Dr. Molly weren't my dentist, I would still want to be her friend in real life. I really like her so much that I've even bought her and her dental assistants buns or fruit as a small token of appreciation (please note, she has never asked or expected anything from me, I just really truly love Dr. Molly--LOVE). Dr. Molly is not just a knowledgeable, thorough, and patient dentist, but an incredible and compassionate human being.
