DR. RICK MARS NAMED AVENTURA’S TOP DOC FOR THE THIRD CONSECUTIVE YEAR
Aventura Magazine - November 2024 issue
Dr. Rick Mars might be known as an expert on patient care and Invisalign, but he wants to be known as the doctor that always does the right thing. He strives to provide the best care for each patient and wants his patients to be informed and empowered. He cares about his patients’ wellbeing, and it shows in everything that he does with honesty and integrity in and out of his office.
Dr. Mars was born and raised in North Miami Beach. He attended Emory University and Georgetown University School of Dentistry. He returned to Miami in 1988 to join The Dental Care Group, where he has been practicing ever since.
Dr. Mars is passionate about giving back to his community and has coached 100’s of local youth in little league baseball and basketball. He was two-time President of Beth Torah and a board member of Michael Ann Russel JCC and Greater Miami Jewish Federation. He and his wife Alison co-founded a Solomon Schecter Day School which was later known as Hochberg Prep, which is not part of David Posnak Day School. During the pandemic, Rick and Alison also started Feeding Friends, a charity designed to help feed the neediest families. He is currently on the Board of Trustees at Aventura Hospital. As the President of the Dental Care Group, he initiated Dentistry from Our Hearts in 2012, an annual free day of dentistry that his entire team has provided over $1.65 million in free dental treatment for the neediest of South Florida.
He is an award-winning international speaker who was voted Speaker of the Year for Invisalign in 2019. He was also voted one of America’s Top Dentists for Invisalign, Cosmetic, and Implant Dentistry by the Consumers’ Research Council of America. In 2020, he released his first book, The Big Smile: The Principles of Modern Dentistry for Dentists and Patients.
Of all of his accomplishments, he is proudest of his family. Married to Alison for 35 years and being the father to Zachary, Blake and Cory are his greatest accomplishments and joy.
