Dr. Sivan Finkel earned his DMD degree from Rutgers School of Dental Medicine in 2010, followed by a year-long residency at Columbia-Presbyterian Hospital, and two years of esthetics training at New York University’s College of Dentistry.
Dr. Finkel's formal education makes him a valuable addition to the Dental Parlour team; however, he also possesses a talent that cannot be taught: he is a natural artist. While in college, Dr. Finkel majored in art alongside his pre-dental requirements, realizing that his two passions would go hand-in-hand. Today, this background in art guides each of his smile transformations.
An understanding of beauty and what pleases the eye, combined with respect for the biology involved, allows him to create natural-looking smiles in the most responsible and conservative manner possible.
In addition to his private practice, Dr. Finkel served as the Education Director of NYU College of Dentistry's Advanced Esthetics continuing education program (2013-2018), and as an adjunct clinical instructor at NYU's Advanced Program for International Dentists in Esthetic Dentistry (2018-2021.)
He has been featured on The Dr. Oz Show, Fox News, and the Today Show as a dental expert, and has had his work showcased in Allure magazine. Dr. Finkel lectures regularly to both local and international dental audiences, and has authored chapters in several textbooks, including the recently published “Esthetic Oral Rehabilitation with Veneers”.
Dr. Finkel is a proud member of the American Academy of Esthetic Dentistry, a prestigious invitation-only organization representing the most accomplished professionals in the field of esthetic dentistry.
