Dr. Reuven Mohl

A neighborhood dentist with minimal online fanfare, Dr. Reuven Mohl runs a discreet practice above 90th on West End Avenue. Eleven blocks south of the West 106th Street retail drag, the sixth-floor walk-up sits above a century-old grocery and a pre-war courtyard with heavy fire escapes. Hang left past the gray lobby door, and the brass letters are easy to miss—no flashing “Smile Studio” sign, just the quiet hum of handpieces drifting through the walls.

The office keeps its focus tight: cosmetic dentistry from single veneers to full arches, plus an occasional night-guard after the Central Park evening runs. Most patients arrive because a plaza dentist closed, or the referral chain finally reached this stretch of the West 80s. Take the 1/2/3 train to 96th and walk six blocks west—sidewalks narrow once you cross Broadway, and the old-school bodega scent lingers for three blocks straight.

Don’t expect a wall of before-and-after glossy photos. Dr. Reuven Mohl hands out the intraoral photos only after the exam, and the treatment plan arrives weeks later by e-mail. The drill is from 9 a.m. on weekdays, slots fit around morning walkers and early child-drop-offs between 83rd and 96th.

Dial (212) 595-4382 once the schedule updates—there’s no portal, so voice mail still works. Head northeast on West End to Broadway if you’re driving; traffic crawls past the Hebrew Home gates until after 4 p.m. The map pin is stable, the elevator is manual, and the West Side preserves the old rules: no food allowed inside, no shoes on the chair. It’s the quiet stretches of this stretch that keep the list accurate.
