Serving the South Florida area for over 30 years, Dr. Rick Mars was voted one of America’s Top Dentists for Invisalign, Cosmetic, and Implant Dentistry by Consumers’ Research Council of America. He has received accolades from the Governor of Florida, the Mayor of the City of North Miami Beach, and the Mayor and City Council of Aventura to name a few.

A modern dentistry and Invisalign expert, Dr. Rick Mars goes above and beyond treating mouths, he treats people. Dr. Mars explains, “Patients come first in our office, and I never forget one of the first lessons that I learned in dentistry: behind every smile is a person and thus, we treat people and not just mouths.”

Upon completion of his undergraduate degree at Emory University, Dr. Rick Mars received his Doctorate of Dental Surgery at Georgetown University School of Dentistry. His experience in both family and cosmetic dentistry, in addition to be being an Invisalign Platinum Plus Provider, has positioned him to be at the top of the modern dentistry field.

"Since November 1970 (when Dr. Mars was only seven years old), I have received excellent dental care, along with three generations of my family, from the Dental Care Group. I have known Rick Mars since he was a young boy with dreams of becoming a dentist and he has been my dentist for his entire career. With his management skills and technology, he has built one of the largest dental practices in South Florida. Rick is a great dentist, a great administrator, a great teacher, a great human being, and a great friend."
