About Smile House & JBL New York City


Dentistry has been stuck in the past. We're building the future.

Your mouth is telling you something. Most dentistry was never built to listen. We were.

The science is clear:
your mouth is a gateway to full-body health.

Mouth Mapping® reads the early signs of imbalance in your bite, airway, gums and biology, so we can treat the cause before it becomes a problem.
Our Approach

Dental longevity starts with a map.

Every patient begins with Mouth Mapping®, one full-scope diagnostic across five dimensions of oral health. What we find shapes everything that follows.
01

Aesthetics

Facial harmony and smile design
Tooth shape, size and position. Gum symmetry and smile line. Facial proportions mapped from digital scans.
02

Structure

Bone health and alignment
CBCT imaging of jawbone density and structure. Alignment issues and signs of wear. Changes in bite and bone tracked over time.
03

Function

Movement and mechanics
Where your teeth meet and move when you chew. TMJ function and range of motion. Muscle coordination across the jaw and face.
04

Biology

Internal health indicators
Salivary testing for pH, inflammation and nitric oxide. Microbiome screening for bacterial imbalance and early signs of gum disease or infection.
05

Airway & Sleep

Breathing, rest and recovery
Airway space and breathing patterns. Screening for sleep-disordered breathing. How tongue posture and jaw structure connect to sleep quality and whole-body health.

Meet the Thought Leader
To Dr. Levine, dentistry is much more than a beautiful smile. He has spent a 35-year career expanding how oral care is understood and who it serves. Where most of dentistry treats the mouth in isolation, Dr. Levine's approach treats it as the channel between the outside world and our internal health, with the power to build confidence, support immunity and extend longevity.

Our Commitment to Giving Back

Care that reaches  beyond the chair.

Smile House was founded with a deeper mission. Our family, the Levines, created the GLO Good Foundation to deliver comprehensive oral care to underserved communities worldwide.
A decade of GLO Missions revealed something undeniable: oral health and overall health are inseparable. That truth inspired an integrative model built on best-in-class technology, dental expertise, and collaboration across healthcare. Smile House and JBL NYC are the realization of that vision.
