Meet Our Dentist – Select Dental

According to Dr. Shoflick, the most satisfying aspects of practicing dentistry are the patient relationships that he has developed over the past 29 years in Connecticut. 

“In some cases, I have gotten to know 4 generations of families. I take pride in their care and the trust we have built. Some of the best experiences have come from helping a patient who is dental phobic, who may not have been to see a dentist in quite some time, making them comfortable and rehabilitating their dental health. It’s a great feeling knowing that you have transformed the way a patient feels about themselves. For me, patient satisfaction is paramount. I love when a patient leaves his/her visit knowing that they can smile with confidence.”

Dr. Shoflick attended Fairleigh Dickinson College of Dental Medicine, graduating with his Doctor of Medical Dentistry degree in 1987. He participated in a one-year General Practice Residency at Bronx Lebanon Hospital in Bronx, NY. During his residency he was able to receive advanced training with respect to trauma and emergent care. In 1990 he joined the practice of Rosenberg and Barnett, which transitioned to Barnett and Shoflick Family Dentistry and is now transitioning again to Select Dental with offices serving patients in both Rocky Hill and West Hartford, Connecticut.

With a commitment to offering state of the art treatment, Dr. Shoflick and the Select Dental team of practitioners are always eager to provide the very best dental experience for their patients. Dr. Shoflick is active in the American Dental Association, Connecticut State Dental Association, Hartford Dental Society, Academy of General Dentistry and Alpha Omega Dental Society. With a view to giving back, Dr. Shoflick has also participated in dental mission trips to Haiti and Guatemala.

A West Hartford resident for the past 25 years, Dr. Shoflick has weathered the trials and tribulations of being the only man in the house while raising 3 daughters with his wife Debbie, and of course his favorite furry friend Brando, the family dog!
