Diagnostic

• Dental Examination
  The dental hygienist will begin your child’s cleaning by exploring the surface of the teeth to determine if there are any cavities and to examine the quality of existing fillings. The dental hygienist will then perform a periodontal exam to make sure your child’s gums adhere tightly to the teeth, and no periodontal disease or bone loss is present.
• X-rays

Preventive

• Teeth Cleaning
  The American Dental Association recommends that children visit the dentist every six months for regular checkups and routine teeth cleanings to keep their teeth and gums healthy.
• Fluoride Treatment

Restorative

• Fillings
• Resin Composite
  Newer dental fillings include ceramic and plastic compounds that mimic the appearance of natural teeth. These compounds, often called composite resins, are usually used on the front teeth where a natural appearance is important, as well as on the back teeth depending on the location and extent of the tooth decay.
• Veneers
  Indirect fillings generally require two or more visits. They include inlays, onlays, veneers, crowns, and bridges fabricated with gold, base metal alloys, ceramics, or composites. During the first visit, the dentist prepares the tooth and makes an impression of the area to be restored. The dentist then places a temporary covering over the prepared tooth. The impression is sent to a dental laboratory that creates the dental restoration. At the next appointment, the dentist cements the restoration into the prepared cavity and adjusts it as needed.

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

• Oral Surgery
  After receiving my Bachelor of Arts degree from New York University, I attended Columbia University School of Dental and Oral Surgery. Following the attainment of my Doctorate of Dental Surgery from Columbia, I completed two years of a general practice residency in dental medicine at New York Hospital. At the completion of my residency programs, I pursued a fellowship at the State University of New York (SUNY) at Stony Brook in dental care for individuals with developmental disabilities. There, I served as an assistant clinical instructor, as well provided direct dental care to the special care population.
