Periodontal Disease and Overall Health
The treatment and prevention of periodontal disease are essential to maintaining your overall health. More and more studies are demonstrating a link between gum disease and serious health conditions, including heart disease, stroke, and diabetes, as well as pregnancy complications such as pre-term birth and low birth weight. At Fifth Avenue Periodontics, we can help you to prevent gum disease before it has a chance to develop. If you already have gum disease, we can create a comprehensive treatment plan to return your gums to a healthy state.
Dental Implants
Dental implants offer a long-term solution to missing teeth. Unlike other tooth replacement options, such as removable dental bridges, dental implants don't rely on surrounding teeth for support. Instead, the implant is placed in the jawbone, where it acts as an artificial root onto which a replacement tooth is attached. We offer full-service implant surgery at Fifth Avenue Periodontics, in Midtown Manhattan, near Central Park. Dr. Melnick has special training in implant dentistry and is highly experienced in the field of implant placement.
