Two real options for dental care in greater Miami. What each practice offers, where they differ, and how to decide which fits the way you want to be treated.
If you are searching for a dentist in the Miami area, Miami Beach Dental Solutions has probably come up in your results, and so have we. Both are established practices with real patients and real strengths, so rather than pretend the choice is obvious, here is a straightforward comparison to help you decide which one fits you.
What Miami Beach Dental Solutions offers
According to their website, Miami Beach Dental Solutions is a multi-doctor practice on Arthur Godfrey Road in Miami Beach, led by Dr. Gabriela Flores alongside Dr. Dashiff and Dr. Sorren. Their listed services run wide: general and cosmetic dentistry, whitening, veneers, biomimetic dentistry, Invisalign, emergency care, TMJ treatment, dental sleep medicine, oral surgery and implants, and even facial cosmetic treatments. They also highlight the iTero 5D scanner among their technology.
If you live or work on the Beach and want a larger team with that breadth of services in one location, they are a legitimate option worth considering.
What Miami Smile Dental does differently
Our practice is built around a different idea: one dentist who actually knows you, with a schedule kept small on purpose. Dr. Ali Yazback sees a limited number of patients each day, so visits are unhurried and you are never a number in a queue.
- Bespoke care by design. No insurance carrier dictates your treatment plan. We accept insurance and help you file for reimbursement, and the plan is decided by you and your dentist.
- One doctor, every visit. The dentist who examined you last year is the dentist who treats you this year.
- Care in three languages. English, Spanish, and French, so nothing about your treatment gets lost in translation.
- Hours that respect a workday. Monday and Thursday start at 7:30 AM, Tuesday and Wednesday run to 6:00 PM, and select Saturdays are available.
- A 4.9 average from 252 Google reviews, earned one unhurried visit at a time.
The honest trade-offs
Choose Miami Beach Dental Solutions if location on Miami Beach matters most to you, or if you specifically want a multi-doctor office with services like dental sleep medicine or facial cosmetics under the same roof.
Choose Miami Smile Dental if you want continuity with a single dentist, appointments that are never rushed, a practice where no carrier limits your care, and a team that can treat you in English, Spanish, or French. Our office is in Pinecrest at 9350 S Dixie Hwy, an easy drive down US-1, and many Miami Beach patients tell us the calmer pace is worth the trip across the bay.
How to decide
Call both. Ask how much time is set aside for a new patient visit, who you will see on your second appointment, and how treatment recommendations are made when insurance will not cover something. The answers will tell you more than any website can. New patients at Miami Smile Dental can start with a complete exam, cleaning, digital X-rays, and fluoride for $199.
