About Smile Design Specialist

Richard A. Ekstein, DMD, FACP

As a Board Certified Prosthodontist, I am a full-service dentist who specializes in cosmetic, reconstructive, and implant dentistry. As a sole practitioner, my practice functions differently than corporate dental offices. It’s a difference I want everyone to experience.

At Smile Design Specialist, YOU are special! We treat every one of our patients with deep compassion and respect. When you visit us for dental care my staff and I will make you comfortable, keep you well-informed, and deliver you the highest quality of dental care available anywhere. That’s my commitment to you!
