Dr. Martin J. Schwartz, DDS is a general dentistry practice at Suite 101, 200 East 24th Street in the Kips Bay neighborhood of Manhattan. Also operating as Bar and Smith Dental at this location, Dr. Schwartz — known to patients as Marty — leads a small, personal practice that has served patients in Kips Bay and the surrounding neighborhoods for many years.
Professional dental cleanings are performed with thoroughness and gentleness. The hygiene team at the practice is noted for careful, comprehensive cleaning technique that patients have found noticeably more effective than their experiences at other offices. Dr. Schwartz performs direct examinations alongside cleanings and is straightforward in discussing findings, treatment options, and associated costs without pressure to pursue elective procedures.
Restorative dental work including fillings and crowns is provided for patients whose examinations identify areas requiring treatment. Dr. Schwartz is conservative in his recommendations, suggesting only what is clinically indicated rather than proposing additional optional work. This approach, combined with his honesty about costs and procedures, has made him a dentist that patients describe as genuinely trustworthy — a distinction that matters for patients who have had negative experiences elsewhere.
The practice maintains a warm, personal atmosphere. Office manager Nina is noted for remembering patients by name across years of visits and for managing the scheduling and administrative side of the practice with attentiveness. Appointment times are kept to a minimum, and patients are typically seen at or before their scheduled time without significant waiting room delays.
Dr. Schwartz has remained in contact with patients who have moved away from the city and needed guidance about dental work proposed by new providers, which reflects a genuine long-term commitment to his patients beyond the duration of their time in New York. The practice currently accepts new patients and handles general dental care including cleanings, examinations, fillings, and restorative procedures.

I just visited Bar and Smith Dental at their location on e24th street as a new patient today, and had an amazing experience. From my first contact with Taylor, their scheduling coordinator, I was treated with kindness, empathy and she actually cared and listened to me. My office visit was quick and painless. I was x-rayed, and Dr Bar came in to discuss my care plan, which was far less dramatic than what I had envisioned lol. Dillon, their financial coordinator was helpful, down to earth and took care of my financial worries in 5 minutes, then sent me to finish my scheduling. Everyone who I encountered in this practice was lovely, kind and thorough and made a dreaded dentist visit something pleasant. Thank you all so much!
I'm a former patient of Dr. Schwartz but had to switch dentists after moving out of state. It's been more than 5 years now, and I weirdly found myself thinking the other day about how good he is. It took me awhile to find a new dentist I trusted after the move, and when I had questions about procedures being recommended by prospective new dentists, Dr. Schwartz was kind enough to respond and give his thoughts. He truly cares about his patients and puts them first. This shouldn't be such a rare thing, but unless you've been much more lucky than I have, I've learned it's hard to find a quality dentist. Hopefully, this review will save you a little effort.
I was a patient of Dr Schwartz for 9 years before moving to the Midwest. I haven’t found a dentist who compares! His office manager Nina is lovely and remembers all patients by name. The hygienists are extremely thorough and competent. The office is designed nicely with neat colorful nicknacks, and it is very clean. Dr Schwartz is smart and is an overall excellent and thorough dentist. I highly recommend him!
I do not say this lightly; Dr. Schwartz is amazing! I've hated dentists my entire life but Dr. Schwartz might have easily changed my mind. His office is clean and comfortable, the wait is practically non-existent, his entire staff is friendly and accommodating, his hygienist is incredibly gentle, and the entire team went out of their way to make sure I get the quickest treatment possible. I actually look forward to returning.
Got transferred to Flatiron / Kips Bay so I needed a new dentist. A couple of co workers recommended Marty. I quickly realized how comfortable it is because they've created a homely, friendly, laid-back atmosphere. Everyone is so nice and warm, and Marty shows so much concern, respect and interest. He's upfront about the procedures and the cost. He's just completely sincere. I really like that.
