Shick Robert DDS

Shick Robert DDS is a general dentistry practice located at 164 West 96th Street on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. The practice offers general dental services to patients in the West 90s neighborhood and the surrounding areas of the Upper West Side, including Morningside Heights and the Broadway and Amsterdam Avenue corridor.

General dentistry services at the practice include routine dental examinations and professional cleanings. Dr. Shick takes a thorough, attentive approach to patient care, including use of techniques designed to minimize discomfort during cleanings—such as warm water for patients with dental sensitivity and non-candy-flavored polishing agents for patients who prefer a less clinical flavor profile. The office is noted for short or no wait times at scheduled appointments.

Restorative services are available for established and new patients. The practice handles fillings and routine restorative work and provides clear explanations of any recommended treatments. New patients can expect a complete initial examination before any treatment is proposed. Dr. Shick takes an energetic and communicative approach to patient interactions, keeping patients informed throughout each appointment.

Dr. Shick’s practice is a solo-operator office, which allows for a consistent relationship between the dentist and each patient over time. For patients who have experienced impersonal or rushed care at larger dental group practices, the focused, personal format of this practice may be an appealing option. The office is appointment-based and is accessible via phone for scheduling.

The practice is located on West 96th Street between Broadway and Amsterdam Avenue, close to the 96th Street crosstown bus and the B and C subway lines at 96th Street station. This Upper West Side location serves patients from the West 90s, Morningside Heights, and West Harlem neighborhoods. The 1, 2, and 3 trains also stop at 96th Street, providing access from Downtown Manhattan and the East Side via a short crosstown transfer.
