The Premiere Dentist --<br />
Dr. Alex Gruenberg<br />
By Diane Feen | photos by melissa korman<br />
Dr. Alex Gruenberg is acclaimed as one of the premiere<br />
cosmetic dentists in South Florida. He developed an acute eye<br />
for facial aesthetic dentistry while living in New York, where<br />
he attended New York University College of Dentistry, a world<br />
class dental school. Dr. Gruenberg is here to deliver results.<br />
“My passion is to create beautiful smiles that positively<br />
impact the face and highlight your natural features. A<br />
smile is the first attribute people notice, not your shoes<br />
or your purse. It is literally your first impression on people, including<br />
your future employer or spouse. Our smiles are therefore hypercritical<br />
to our overall success and happiness in today’s society.”<br />
But in order to work well with any dentist you need trust. That’s<br />
why Dr. Gruenberg believes that building a strong rapport is key to<br />
achieving painless, predictable, and successful treatment outcomes.<br />
“I wear a doctor’s hat when I’m caring for the individual - making<br />
sure I’m doing what is in their specific best interest. I also wear a<br />
friend hat, in which I am warm and inviting, helping to relieve patients<br />
of anxiety because they see me as a person they can open up<br />
to and trust.”<br />
What makes Dr. Gruenberg stand out is how patient-centric he is.<br />
He is not the type of doctor that is out the door in the flash of an eye.<br />
“I make it a point to spend a lot of time with each patient. I listen to<br />

them and find out what they want. We get great results because everything<br />
we do is bespoke, it’s custom made for the person’s size, age<br />
and preference,” said the NYU graduate.<br />
When he says bespoke, what Dr. Gruenberg means is that everything<br />
is custom made from the ground up for the patient with the<br />
utmost attention to detail and quality. Dr. G has a theory – that there<br />
is more to the beauty of a smile than teeth color – that’s why he focuses<br />
on the shape, size, and harmony of each tooth. Additionally, the<br />
incorporation of facial aesthetic procedures such as Botox and lip fillers<br />
helps highlight the smile further and reduce the appearance of<br />
wrinkles and imperfections<br />
“All of my beautiful dental work starts with getting to know the patient<br />
and having them explain their deepest concerns and needs. It is<br />
like a riddle. I have to figure out what motivates every single patient.<br />
After that we perform a physical analysis of the patient – their facial<br />
structure, age, and personality. Our porcelain veneers and crowns<br />
are then sent to a master technician where porcelain powder and<br />
liquid are mixed and hand-layered into gorgeous and life-like 3D creations.<br />
There are microscopic levels of detail here. As a result, the<br />
final product fits like a glove and looks completely natural.”<br />
