Summary

Despite his calm, sophisticated demeanor, Dr. Jan Linhart is a fierce presence in the world of dentistry. In 1979, he set his sights on establishing a highly esteemed dental practice that would offer his patients a one-stop, comprehensive, inter-disciplinary dental experience, and every day since then, he has worked steadfastly towards that goal.
“There are two things that I am absolutely committed to providing for my patients,” remarks Linhart, one of New York’s preeminent dental practitioners. “First and foremost, is exceptional, cutting-edge dental treatment in a multiplicity of specialties,” he explains, “but equally important, is a positive total patient experience.” Linhart’s earnestness and passion for his craft are evident in every word, and as he chronicles his personal history and professional progress, it is easy to see that his commitment is deeply-rooted and sincere.
PERSONAL HISTORY
Born in Prague, Czechoslovakia, Linhart’s family escaped the Communist regime and came to America when he was thirteen years old. His mother, Magda, a survivor of the Holocaust, spent a year in Auschwitz and Bergen Belsen before returning to Prague, where she met, Ernest, her husband of thirty-five years. Dr. Linhart attributes his compassionate nature to his mother and his strong work ethic to his father, a well-respected dermatologist in both Prague and the United States.
Without equal, Linhart’s biggest fan and supporter is his beautiful wife of twenty-seven years, Ellen, who serves as the office’s marketing director, accounts payable manager, and promotional administrator. They have two sons. Alexander is currently an investment banker at J. P. Morgan, and following in his father’s footsteps, Zachary enrolled at New York University’s Dental School this fall.
Westchester residents for more than twenty-five years, the Linharts travel as a family, ski, bike, and hike. Jan is an ice hockey enthusiast, who once participated in the Junior Olympic tournament. His mother, now 92, resides in their family home, as does their Bijon Frise, Krystal.
PROFESSIONAL HISTORY
Linhart is driven by the desire to achieve excellence and has unfailingly remained focused upon the future. After graduating from Bowdoin College with majors in Biochemistry and Russian, he attended New York University’s College of Dentistry, successfully completed an arduous hospital residency at Mountainside Hospital in Montclair, New Jersey, and in 1981, established a private practice at his current location.
Almost immediately after establishing a one chair office, Linhart began to explore ways of expanding and advancing his practice without sacrificing or compromising his commitment to the highest level of proficiency regarding state-of-the-art procedural techniques. He consistently sustained a familiarity with cutting edge products and technology, and set about creating a comfortable and pain-free experience for his patients.
In fact, Linhart’s practice has been a paradigm of evolutionary development, with constant changes, improvements, and additions. In order to achieve his dream of creating a practice that provided a comprehensive, inter-disciplinary approach to oral medicine, while emphasizing the importance of good health and the value of cosmetic artistry, Linhart recognized the necessity of hiring experts in various fields of expertise. While he personally focused on cosmetic restorative care (porcelain veneers, crowns, and bridges), he painstakingly sought out the finest specialists in related fields, ultimately adding a periodontal surgeon, implant specialist, orthodontist, and endodontist (root canal specialist) to his practice. In addition, he employs the services of four hygienists.
“There are so many benefits to this arrangement,” he explains, and with pride and enthusiasm, describes all of the advantages. “Again, my primary goal is to offer my patients unparalleled dental care, and with this assemblage of experts, there can be an on-the-spot collaboration of ideas regarding consultations, diagnosis, and proposed cros
