Dental West NYC

Dental West NYC is a dental clinic located on Manhattan's Upper West Side, specializing in prosthodontics and laser dentistry. The practice, co-founded by Dr. Reginald Moncrieff and Dr. Leora Walter, is built on a "wholistic" and patient-centered philosophy that prioritizes minimally invasive and preventative care. Dr. Walter, a surgically trained prosthodontist, leads the team with a focus on preserving natural teeth and using the most advanced technologies available. The clinic's services encompass a broad range of treatments, including prosthodontics (dental implants, dentures, bridges, and crowns), cosmetic dentistry (veneers and teeth whitening), and general dentistry. A key feature of Dental West NYC is its use of cutting-edge technology, particularly laser dentistry. This allows for procedures that are more gentle, precise, and less invasive than traditional methods. For example, they use lasers for procedures like Laser Pocket Disinfection (LPD) to effectively kill bacteria and promote healthier gums. This focus on advanced technology aims to reduce patient discomfort, minimize recovery time, and provide more effective results. The clinic's team is comprised of a number of highly skilled professionals, including prosthodontists like Dr. Walter, and general and cosmetic dentists such as Dr. Noelia Richardson and Dr. Michelle Kamel. The staff also includes long-serving assistants and hygienists who are praised by patients for their professionalism and caring demeanor. Dental West NYC emphasizes a collaborative approach, creating customized treatment plans tailored to each patient's specific needs and long-term oral health goals. They aim to provide a comfortable and welcoming environment, ensuring patients are well-informed and actively involved in their treatment decisions.
