How to Choose a Manhattan Dentist
I'm Dr. Nina Izhaky. Patients ask me all the time how to pick a dentist in Manhattan — and I tell them to check the same things I'd check myself. This is my honest checklist for any dental office in New York City, and then I'll show you exactly how my own practice measures up. Fair is fair.
The Manhattan dentist checklist
Six things to check in any Manhattan dentist — including us. Ask these questions wherever you go.
Named specialists on the team
Ask anywhere
Who does the implants, the gum surgery, the orthodontics — by name? If the answer is 'we refer that out,' you're looking at a general practice, not a multi-specialty one.
At Tribeca Dental Studio
At Tribeca Dental Studio: Dr. Sam Morhaim, a board-certified implant specialist, places and restores implants in-house. An airway-focused orthodontist handles expansion and alignment. A prosthodontist is on site for complex reconstruction. Real names, real credentials, one roof.
Implants placed AND restored in-house
Ask anywhere
Does the implant surgery happen in the same office that restores the tooth — or do you get referred out mid-treatment and hope the two offices agree?
At Tribeca Dental Studio
At Tribeca Dental Studio: the full implant scope happens here — single-tooth implants, All-on-4 and All-on-X, full-mouth reconstruction, and mini implants — planned, placed, and restored by our own team since 2007.
Airway and sleep evaluation, not just teeth
Ask anywhere
Does anyone look at why you snore, why you're tired, how your airway developed — or do they only count cavities?
At Tribeca Dental Studio
At Tribeca Dental Studio: we evaluate airway and sleep as part of dentistry. NightLase laser snoring treatment, oral sleep appliances, MARPE palatal expansion, and at-home sleep testing — coordinated with the rest of your care.
Laser dentistry, not just a drill
Ask anywhere
For gum disease, does the office offer laser options — or only scalpel-and-stitches surgery?
At Tribeca Dental Studio
At Tribeca Dental Studio: Dr. Sam Morhaim was one of the first to use LANAP laser gum surgery — no scalpel flap, no stitches, recovery more like a filling than surgery. Our pediatric practice uses dental lasers for kids too.
Same-day emergency care
Ask anywhere
When a tooth cracks on a Saturday, do they see you that day — or next Thursday?
At Tribeca Dental Studio
At Tribeca Dental Studio: we hold same-day emergency evaluation time. Call (212) 561-5303 and tell us it's urgent.
Reviews you can verify
Ask anywhere
What do hundreds of real patients say — on Google, not just the office's own website?
At Tribeca Dental Studio
At Tribeca Dental Studio: 4.7 stars across 685 Google reviews, and real patient reviews displayed on our site. Check them before you call anyone.
