Following in the footsteps of his father (who practiced dentistry in Brooklyn, NY, for 38 years), Dr. Myles Spodak found the pursuit of a dental career to be a natural choice. After graduating from Fairleigh Dickenson University, he earned his Doctor of Dental Surgery Degree from Temple University.

Following dental school, Dr. Myles served his country as a Captain in the U.S. Army Dental Corps. Upon leaving military service, he returned home to New York City where he practiced for the next seven years. Endowed with a keen sense of adventure, he pulled up roots and moved his young family to Delray Beach, Florida, where in 1976 he founded the Spodak Dental Group.

As the town of Delray Beach grew, Dr. Myles’ practice grew with it.

Over the course of the next three decades, he and his wife, Arlene Spodak, cultivated a reputation of trusted care and commitment to the local community. Now, the same sense of adventure and drive for excellence that brought him to Delray Beach in the first place, has kept Spodak Dental Group on the leading edge of innovative dentistry.

Today, with fifty years of experience behind him, he enjoys practicing dentistry now more than ever, and also sharing his knowledge with the team of dentists. In his spare time, you’ll find him on the tennis court or doting over his four beautiful grandchildren.

A child of the heartland, Dr. Tiffany Dudley (formerly Dr. Peterson) graduated from Michigan State University and the University of Detroit Mercy School of Dentistry. After finishing dental school, she moved to South Florida where she completed her General Practice Residency at the Veterans Hospital in Miami. There she served as Chief Resident until joining a practice in the Florida Keys.

Committed to the idea of comprehensive dental care, she was drawn to the visionary team approach to dentistry pioneered by the Spodak Dental Group and joined the team in 2009. Driven by a love for people and a deep sense of responsibility to serve those in need, she has committed herself to various charitable dental organizations, including the Give Kids A Smile program that provides free dental care to disadvantaged children.

She was awarded the 2014 Ken Ellingsworth Community Service Award from the Delray Beach Chamber of Commerce and looks forward to continuing her efforts to make sure that community members have the dental care they need.

In her free time, she loves to run and can often be found participating in local fitness events and marathons, and also spends time with her husband Brian and their newborn son, Marc.

A 24-year veteran in the field of dentistry, Dr. Cabanillas never stops pursuing perfection. After graduating from New York University with a degree of Doctor in Dental Surgery, he completed a General Practice Residency at Mount Sinai Medical Center where he received extensive training in Oral Surgery, Periodontal Therapy, and Reconstructive Dentistry. He also completed a Prosthodontics program from Harvard University/VA Hospital in Boston, MA where he received the first honorary mention in the 22 years of existence of this combined program. He was also the Clinical Assistant Professor at the University of Florida from 1998-2005.

Dr. Cabanillas looks forward to taking on difficult cases and challenging himself in the pursuit of perfection. His drive in the field of dentistry is the ability to change people’s lives.

Throughout the years he has been able to help his patients restore their smiles, reduce oral pain and improve their self-esteem, not to mention save the lives of three patients by early diagnosis and treatment of oral cancer.

Dr. Cabanillas is also an active member of the American Dental Association, American College of Prosthodontics and the Academy of Osseointegration. When he is not perfecting smiles, he likes to read, scuba dive, play sports and spend time with his family, and hopefully one day be able to spoil his grandchildren.

After graduating from Finch University of Health Sciences in 1997, Dr. Drucker has spent many years perfecting his technique. Board Certified in Anesthesiology, he performs in-house epidurals, IV sedation and pain management. Dr Drucker performs many challenging anesthesia procedures per year, and shines as our No. 1 anesthesiologist as he easily and safely puts our patients to sleep during their sleep dentistry. In addition to working at Spodak Dental Group, he is also on staff at Bethesda Hospital East. His great chair-side manner allows patients to relax, in addition to being highly skilled and, not to mention, witty.

When he’s not performing procedures, he likes to spend time with his wife and three sons, enjoying a great hockey game or watching a Miami Heat basketball game.

A graduate of Temple University, Dr. “Pru” Prusakowski earned his Doctor of Dental Medicine Degree with a specialty in Endodontics. No one likes to hear the words, “You need a root canal,” but Dr. Pru’s steady hand, gentle touch, and exemplary skills assuage his patients’ fears. His satisfaction comes in alleviating the pain of his patients. He loves being the “good guy!”

Dr. Prusakowski received his Bachelor’s Degree in Biology from Villanova University, followed by a Doctorate of Medical Dentistry from Temple University School of Dentistry. During his studies, Dr. Prusakowski received the United States Naval Health Professions Scholarship and entered the U.S. Navy after graduation. He completed a one-year Advanced Education in General Dentistry Residency, served on the Rapid Deployment Team and held the position of Infection Control Officer. Dr. Prusakowski served for four years as a Lieutenant prior to leaving the Naval service and entering endodontic specialty training.

Dr. Prusakowski attended a two-year postgraduate program at Albert Einstein Medical Center in Philadelphia where he received his endodontic specialty certification in 2007. He is currently Board-Eligible in pursuit of his certification by the American Board of Endodontics.

Dr. Prusakowski met his wife, Jennifer, while they served in the U.S. Navy together at the Marine Corps Base in Kaneohe, Hawaii. David and Jennifer are excited about living in South Florida, where Jennifer grew up. When they are not busy working, they are actively involved in the community.

Their interests include traveling, scuba diving and golf.

South Florida native Dr. Mike Paisner joined the Spodak Dental Group in 2015. Since then, he has fully immersed himself in the Spodak culture and participates in philanthropic events, including All-Star Smiles Day and Freedom Day. He was driven to Spodak Dental Group because he shares the same vision of delivering compassion through dentistry, and we’re so happy to have him on the team!

He has dedicated his life to the pursuit of abolishing oral health disparities for the young and old. He decided at the age of 13 that he was going to be a dentist, and was the first in his family to achieve higher education. With the help of his family, he was able to achieve acceptance in the distinguished Herman Ostrow School of Dentistry at the University of Southern California.

Outside of the office, Dr. Paisner is a musician and a luthier. He has been building electric guitars and stereos from scratch since he was 14 years old. It seems like working with his hands is something he can’t get away from!

Dr. Paisner and his wife Bonnie, who is a surgical technician at West Boca Medical Center, both enjoy being in the healthcare field so they can help their patients. They also enjoy traveling, cooking and spending time with family.

Dr. Alfredo Arauz is a general and cosmetic dentist who believes “Life is too short not to smile.” His passion for dentistry started in high school after shadowing and working for a dentist in his hometown of Miami. After graduating high school with an International Baccalaureate diploma from Coral Reef Senior High, he attended the University of Florida and graduated with a degree in Human Nutrition with Dean’s List honors. While at the University of Florida, Dr. Arauz was published in the Journal of the American Society for Microbiology for his research of the correlation between cardiovascular disease and periodontal disease under Dr. Ann Progulske-Fox. Dr. Arauz then obtained his Doctor of Medical Dentistry degree from the University of Pittsburgh.

Dr. Arauz continues to pursue education and learning with a goal to further his training in the most current and state-of-the-art dental techniques. He is a member of the American Dental Association, Florida Dental Association, Hispanic Dental Association, American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, American Academy of Implant Dentistry, and the South Florida District Dental Association.

Dr. Arauz takes pride not only in creating a beautiful smile for every patient of his, but also in giving his patients the best dental experience possible while increasing their overall dental health education and awareness.

Aside from dentistry, Dr. Arauz enjoys weightlifting, running, cooking and traveling.

Born and raised in Peru, Dr. Lisset Arenas came to South Florida in 2000. Her passion for dentistry started when she was a teenager after realizing the big impact that oral health can have in people’s lives. She worked as a dental assistant while obtaining her Bachelor of Biology at Nova Southeastern University. With the support and love of her family and friends, Dr. Arenas became the first doctor in her family to receive her Doctor of Dental Medicine at the University of Florida College of Dentistry. During her four years of dental school, Dr. Arenas was very involved in volunteerism and community service and overlooked a dental clinic organized by the Department of Health of Alachua County, which provided dental care to the low-income population of the county.

After graduation, Dr. Arenas was inducted into the Omicron Kappa Upsilon (OKU) Xi Omicron chapter, a national dental honor society, whose mission is to promote the highest standards of dentistry. She completed an AEGD residency at the Miami Veterans Hospital before joining Spodak Dental Group.

When she is not practicing Dentistry, Dr. Arenas likes to spend time with her husband Ruben and their two “four-legged children,” Jerry and Cornelius. She also enjoys traveling, photography, and scrapbooking.
