OUR SERVICES

LASER PERIODONTAL DENTISTRY

Laser Perio

We are the first and only Periodontics-Prosthodontics specialty practice in Manhattan to offer "bladeless" surgery with a laser that can perform procedures on both soft and hard tissue.

Imagine a visit to our New York City dental office for periodontal work without having to face scalpels, stitches, or pain. Picture yourself easing into the chair and greeting your laser dentist without apprehension.

At our Manhattan office, you can have laser dentistry for periodontal (gum) disease, gum lifts and gum reconstruction without fear... because Dr. Zelig is one of the few periodontists in Manhattan and all of NYC qualified to offer WaterLase laser dentistry.

The Benefits of Laser Dentistry

WaterLase laser dentistry uses a combination of laser energy and water for a more gentle experience. At Smile in the City, we use laser dentistry to treat periodontal (gum) diseases like gingivitis and also to perform cosmetic procedures like gum lifts and grafts.

You'll feel much more comfortable because our methods require less freezing or anesthesia. And the aftermath is more pleasant too: no bleeding, less swelling, and faster healing.

Laser periodontists like Dr. Zelig prefer laser dentistry because it gives them greater precision. It allows them to accurately target the diseased areas of the gums while leaving the surrounding healthy tissue untouched.

Dr. Zelig is a recognized authority on Laser Periodontics and has been featured in US News and World Report, CBS NEWS, and several other media publications.
