About Dr. Jan Linhart
Dr. Jan Linhart Practicing the art and science of dentistry since 1980, Dr. Linhart provides the finest quality dental care available today. Although he focuses on Cosmetic and Restorative Dentistry, he still offers an exceptional, full service dental practice.

"Our equipment is definitely high tech," explains Dr. Linhart, "but our traditional approach is warm and friendly." He describes it as "advanced technology with a personality."
Dr. Linhart attributes his ability to establish sympathetic doctor/patient relationships to values he learned from his father, who was a well-respected dermatologist in Prague, Czech Republic. Dr. Ernest Linhart MD was disciplined in the time-honored tradition of providing patients with both care and compassion, qualities he instilled in his son.
Dr. Linhart continues to pioneer innovative dental techniques and is resolute in his pursuit of state-of-the-art equipment for unparalleled care. "These days, with so many new treatments and options available, there's no reason to settle for an outdated, less convenient approach to dental care," Dr. Linhart notes. To this end, he is committed to offering the latest, most effective treatments possible for everything from a simple filling to complex root canals and full-smile makeovers. "More options, more comfort, more quality of care - these are our goals," sums up Dr. Linhart.
