About Dr. Rebecca Zhi

Dr. Rebecca Zhi was born and raised in New Jersey. Since she was young, Dr. Zhi has enjoyed making art and working with her hands. She also grew up with a strong interest in healthcare and decided early on that dentistry was the perfect way to channel her passions for both science and art. She earned her Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from New York University, where she held leadership roles in the American Student Dental Association and Student Government. She then completed her general practice residency training at the prestigious NYU Langone in Brooklyn (formerly Lutheran), receiving extensive training in all aspects of dentistry, including fillings, extractions, root canals, crowns, bridges, periodontal treatment, implant restorations, and Invisalign. Dr. Zhi understands that coming to the dentist can be nerve-racking for some people, so she strives to help all her patients feel comfortable and at ease in the dental chair. Patients appreciate her patience, attention to detail, and gentle touch. Dr. Zhi also speaks intermediate Mandarin. Outside the dental office, Dr. Zhi enjoys running in the park, visiting art museums, and traveling the world. She also loves trying new restaurants, baking desserts for her friends and family, and going to live music shows.

Very knowledgeable about dentistry, and passionate about the well being of her patients! One of the best doctors I have ever met and am more happy to recommend her to anyone in the NYC area. The appointment lasted under 40 minutes and was smooth throughout. Communication was clear, and there were no issues.
Very informative and professional, beautiful office with an excellent staff, I was definitely impressed and will recommend and will return for future dental care!

Super friendly office staff. Easy online documentation for speedy check in. Was taken right away to chain for X-rays then 20 mins wait time to see dentist and hygienist.
Amazing!
Great experience! I was seen immediately after arriving to the office (even though I was 10 minutes early). Doctor was great, very thorough and detail oriented. Definitely will be back!
Super fast cleaning and X-rays. I arrived a few minutes early and was seen right away. I also appreciated that they didn't try to upsell me on services I don't need
Quick x-ray and cleaning, no frills, didn’t try to sell me any unnecessary procedures. Everything I want in a dentist appointment.
Outstanding and very much pleased. Spoke with me, made me aware of what was going on, took her time and made me feel comfortable. She's the greatest and whatever dental work I need done she's will be the only doing it. Staff was great and her assistant was wonderful. This place is the best.

Verified patient
I always recommend Smile Arts. The whole staff is super friendly, appointments are always on time and I always leave happy! I look forward to going to the dentist!!
Verified patient
Booked a last minute appointment the night before, got communication very early next morning to let me know the availability and rebooked me at a different time on the same day. Really appreciated the quick response. Upon arrival, waited less than 10 minutes before being seen. Smooth process and seems professional staff. Only complaint was about the front desk lady, seems not having too much patience and absolutely no interest of explaining the insurance to me while at the end of the appt the dentist told me that I could get all these details from the front desk lady also to book the next appointment. Hope she could do better with her attitude.
Verified patient
Dr. Zhi was excellent. I really appreciated her expertise and opinions on everything and she did a great job. Also was able to see me on short notice. Would 100% recommend.
Verified patient
Great doctor, highly recommended. The wait time was less than 5 minutes. Dr. Zhi was kind, caring, and gentle. I usually prolong most of my dentists appointments (I know, horrible of me) but I will be back for my regular cleaning because of the great experience.
Verified patient
Dr. Zhi was knowledgable, patient, and very kind! The office is clean, efficient, and organized. The wait time was minimal and the other staff were also super friendly. They were thorough with my dental cleaning and did a great job. Would recommend 10/10!!
Verified patient
I’m quite disappointed and extremely bummed to have had this experience. I was manhandled by the hygienist (Alyssa (?)). By the end of it I asked if everything was okay bc she seemed angry and she said I was strong for being able to take it (the aggression) and that it was bc the room was too small. And that’s it. I’m bummed I had to experience this and disappointed that i had a nice experience with the assistant up until this hygienist came along and started jamming my mouth and smushing my face like I was a piece of meat. I would not have spent time to leave this review had she shown an ounce of respect, even a fake apology would have sufficed.
Excellent team and care. Thank you
Best cleaning you'll ever have! Thank you!
