My Team, My Standard

A Team I Trust With My Own Family

I opened Tribeca Dental Studio in 2007 with one rule I still hold my team to: treat every patient like family, and never rush a visit. Over the years I have built a team of general dentists, specialists, hygienists, and clinical staff who share that standard. We run on time because I know your time is as valuable as mine. We keep our operatories spotless and allergen-free — hypoallergenic wall paints, hospital-grade air purification, mercury-free materials — and we start every appointment by listening, not lecturing.

Dental fear is something we take personally. Most people who dread the dentist have a story: a bad experience, a rough injection, feeling judged. My team's job is to make sure your story with us is different. No lectures about flossing. No judgment if you have been away for years. Just honest answers, gentle hands, and a plan that fits your life.

Modern Dentistry, Human Touch

Digital Workflow, In-House Specialists

You do not get referred across town from here. Our periodontists, prosthodontists, oral surgeons, orthodontists, and pediatric specialists practice under the same roof, and pediatric care has its own full-floor office: Tribeca Dental Studio 4 Kids. When your treatment needs more than one kind of expertise, the doctors plan it together, in the same building, around one chart.

We plan digitally, too: intraoral cameras, digital radiography, 3D CBCT imaging, and 3D Digital Smile Design, so you see your options before we begin. Browse the profiles below to meet the people behind the standard — each one lists their role and areas of focus.

Common Questions

01Will I be referred out for specialist care?↓

Rarely. We bring the specialists to you — periodontics, prosthodontics, oral surgery, orthodontics, and pediatric specialists all practice within Tribeca Dental Studio, so most treatment plans happen in one place.

02Can my whole family come to the same practice?↓

Yes. Our general dentists care for adults, and Tribeca Dental Studio 4 Kids — a full-floor specialty office — serves children with board-certified pediatric experts, so families get coordinated care under one roof.

03I have avoided the dentist for years. Will I be judged?↓

No. That is exactly the patient we welcome most. Your first visit is a conversation and a plan — no lectures, no shame, just a clear path back to oral health at your pace.

04How do I know which doctor I will see?↓

Each profile below lists the team member's role and areas of focus. When you book, tell us what you need — we will match you with the clinician whose expertise fits your case.

05Do you use modern technology in treatment planning?↓

Yes. Our digital workflow includes intraoral cameras, digital radiography, 3D CBCT imaging, and 3D Digital Smile Design, so your treatment is planned precisely and you understand your options before we start.

Dental Care in Tribeca, New York

Tribeca Dental Studio has served Lower Manhattan from 54 Warren Street since 2007. Our practice brings together general dentistry, pediatric dentistry, orthodontics, oral surgery, and periodontics under one roof — so families don't need to travel between offices for different kinds of care.

Dr. Nina Izhaky leads our clinical team with a focus on airway health, dental implants, veneers, and pediatric dentistry. Our approach starts with diagnosis: we find out why a problem exists before recommending treatment. For snoring and sleep apnea, that means identifying the cause — whether it's nasal obstruction, jaw position, or soft tissue — rather than defaulting to a single device or procedure.

We use 3D CBCT imaging, digital planning, and laser dentistry including NightLase for snoring and LANAP for gum disease. Our Biolase laser means most cavities can be treated with no needles, no drill sounds, and no numbness — patients return to work or school right after their visit.

For patients without insurance, our dental plan is $70 per month (normally $100), covering preventive care, exams, and routine visits with no insurance company in the middle. We are located at 54 Warren St, New York, NY 10007, serving Tribeca, SoHo, Battery Park City, the Financial District, and surrounding downtown neighborhoods.

Your Visit from Tribeca

Getting here from Tribeca is a short walk, not a trip, and that is how most of our neighbors arrive. If you are coming by subway, the 1, 2, 3, A, C, and E trains stop at Chambers Street, about a five-minute walk up Warren to our door. The 4, 5, and 6 at Brooklyn Bridge–City Hall are ten minutes on foot through the civic center, and the J and Z also stop at Chambers Street for the east-side connection.

Citi Bike stations sit on Warren Street and Greenwich Street, and New Jersey commuters can take PATH to the World Trade Center Oculus.

When you arrive at 54 Warren Street, we keep the day simple and unhurried from the moment you check in. Our team works together under one roof, so your visit stays in one place instead of sending you across town for another appointment or another opinion. We talk through what brought you in, take any imaging we need here in the office, and explain what we are seeing in plain language before we discuss next steps together.

You will always know what we recommend, why we recommend it, and what can wait, so you leave with a clear plan rather than unanswered questions.

Life in Tribeca moves between the cast-iron lofts on Franklin Street, the towers along West Street, and afternoons with families at Washington Market Park, and we schedule with that rhythm in mind. We are open Monday through Friday from 8 AM to 6 PM, Saturday from 9 AM to 4 PM, and Sunday from 9 AM to 2 PM, and you can book online any time or call us at (212) 561-5303.

Street parking here is tight, with cobblestone blocks and film shoots, but attended garages on Warren Street and Greenwich Street sit within a block of our door. Follow-ups stay with our same team, so your care feels continuous.

Ongoing care is where being neighbors really pays off for our Tribeca patients. A six-month recall is just a short walk over, a quick check-in with the team who already knows your history, and a cleaning that fits between school drop-off and the rest of your day. When treatment takes more than one visit, we sequence it sensibly, review healing in person, and adjust the plan together rather than by phone tag.

Because we have cared for families here since 2007, we notice small changes early, keep your records continuous, and remind you when you are due — so staying on track never feels like starting over.

How Care Is Planned at Our Tribeca Studio

Every treatment plan at Tribeca Dental Studio begins with a diagnosis, not a recommendation made in the abstract. We examine the tooth or area in question, review imaging taken here in the office — including 3D CBCT scans when the case calls for them — and talk through what we see in plain language before any treatment is proposed. You will always know what we recommend, why we recommend it, and what could safely wait.

When several options would serve you well, we lay them side by side: what each involves, how many visits it takes, how long it is expected to last, and what it asks of the neighboring teeth and bone.

That conversation becomes a written plan. The sequence, the timing, and the reasoning are set down before treatment begins, so there are no surprises mid-course and no step is improvised. Staged treatment is grouped into planned steps when we can, and each stage is checked before the next one starts.

If a simpler option would serve you just as well, that is the option we will put in front of you — and if the honest answer is that a tooth or a treatment can be watched rather than treated today, we will say that instead.

Because every specialty sits under one roof at 54 Warren St, a plan that touches several disciplines is designed as a whole. Implant surgery, periodontics, endodontics, orthodontics, cosmetic work, airway care, and pediatric dentistry are handled by one team in one place, which means the implant plan accounts for the gum plan, the orthodontic plan accounts for the airway, and nothing is lost between offices across town.

Your records, your imaging, and your history stay with the same team from the first visit through every follow-up.

Technology We Use — and Why It Matters

Good planning depends on seeing clearly. Our studio works with 3D CBCT imaging, which shows bone volume, nerve positions, sinus anatomy, and root form in three dimensions rather than the flat shadow of a standard X-ray. Implant positions, grafting decisions, root canal anatomy, and expansion planning are all worked out on that imaging before treatment begins, so the day of the procedure holds as few unknowns as possible.

Digital planning carries the same approach into orthodontics and cosmetic work: tooth movement and smile design are mapped in advance, and you can see the intended direction before committing to it.

Laser technology is part of everyday care here, from gum therapy to the NightLase protocol we use for snoring. Lasers let us treat soft tissue with precision and, in many cases, with a quieter recovery than traditional surgery. For sleep concerns, we use at-home sleep testing rather than assumptions: your breathing is measured in your own bed, and the results — not a guess — decide whether an oral appliance, NightLase, or a referral is the right path.

Technology earns its place in the plan only when it changes a decision or improves an outcome; that is the standard each tool here is held to.

Costs, Insurance, and Written Estimates

Before treatment begins, you receive the plan in writing — including what each stage involves and what it costs — so you can decide with the full picture in front of you. There is no obligation attached to a consultation, and a second opinion is a reasonable thing to want; we would rather you choose with clear information than feel rushed into a chair.

If you have dental insurance, our team verifies your coverage and explains what it does and does not apply to before we start, and if you do not, the written plan still lets you stage treatment sensibly over time.

Dental treatment is often easier to approach in planned stages than all at once. A written plan lets you sequence what is urgent, what protects the teeth around it, and what is elective, so each visit moves the whole plan forward. If something changes along the way — a tooth responds better or worse than expected — the plan is revisited with you, in writing, before the next step. That discipline is what keeps a long course of treatment from becoming a series of surprises.

Comfort, Recovery, and Follow-Up

Most dental anxiety comes from the unknown, so we work to remove it: what will happen, how long it takes, what it will feel like, and what recovery looks like are all covered before we begin. During treatment we check in rather than push through, and after it we tell you plainly what is normal, what is not, and when to call.

Written aftercare instructions go home with you, and the precautions in them — protecting a healing site, eating soft foods for a few days, keeping the area clean — are the difference between an uneventful recovery and a complicated one.

Follow-up is part of the treatment, not an extra. We schedule reviews around your life, use return visits to check healing and the details we flagged together, and keep recall reminders running so maintenance does not drift. If something feels off between visits, we would rather see you quickly than have you wait and wonder.

Call us at (212) 561-5303 or book online at any time — the studio is open Monday to Friday from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM, Saturday from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM, and Sunday from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM.

Before You Book

A final word on how to use pages like this one. Treatment pages describe what is possible; a consultation decides what is appropriate — for your anatomy, your history, your goals, and your budget, in that order of conversation. If anything here has raised a question we have not answered, bring it with you: patients who arrive with marked-up pages and specific questions get the most from their first visit, and the plan we write together is better for it.

Tribeca Dental Studio is at 54 Warren St in Tribeca, and new patients are welcome at any of the services described on this site. Book online at any time or call (212) 561-5303. The first step is an examination and an honest conversation; everything else in dentistry follows from those two things done properly.

The Next Step Is a Conversation

Wherever this page found you — a search at midnight, a partner's forwarded link, a dentist's suggestion — the next step is smaller than the worry usually makes it feel. A consultation at the studio is an examination and a conversation, not a commitment: findings first, options with their honest trade-offs, a written plan with costs, and time to decide at home.

Patients tell us the plan is what they actually came for, whether they proceed here, proceed elsewhere, or proceed nowhere for now. That is the offer, and it stands on every page of this site: 54 Warren St, bookable online at any hour, or at (212) 561-5303 — Monday to Friday 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM, Saturday 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM, Sunday 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM.

The Consultation Is Not a Funnel

A last word that applies to every page in this series, whichever treatment brought you here: the consultation is not a funnel. Patients arrive at these pages mid-worry — about a tooth, a jaw, a night's sleep, a smile in photographs — and the studio's answer has been the same since 2007. An examination. Imaging where imaging decides. A written plan with the options and their costs, including the option of doing less, or nothing yet.

Then time to think, at home, without a follow-up call designed to hurry you. If that is the experience you were hoping dentistry could be, the door is at 54 Warren St, and it opens online at any hour or at (212) 561-5303.

About Tribeca Dental Studio

Tribeca Dental Studio has practiced at 54 Warren St in Tribeca since 2007, under the direction of Dr. Nina Izhaky. The studio brings general dentistry, cosmetic care, implant surgery, periodontics, endodontics, orthodontics, airway and sleep care, and pediatric dentistry together under one roof — deliberately, so that a treatment touching several specialties is planned as a whole by one team, in one set of records, rather than handed off between offices across town.

Patients come to us from Tribeca, the Financial District, Battery Park City, SoHo, and neighborhoods across downtown Manhattan.

Every plan here starts with a diagnosis: an examination, imaging taken in the office — including 3D CBCT when the case calls for it — and a conversation in plain language about what we see. You will know what we recommend, why, and what could safely wait, and the recommendation becomes a written plan before treatment begins. That discipline is the studio's answer to dentistry that is sold instead of planned.

One Team, Every Specialty

A one-roof practice is only an advantage if the team works as one, so cases here are reviewed across specialties rather than passed between them. The implant plan accounts for the gum plan; the orthodontic plan accounts for the airway; a child's expansion plan accounts for how they breathe and sleep.

Records, imaging, and history stay with the same team from the first visit through every follow-up, which means nothing is re-explained, nothing is lost, and no step is planned in isolation.

Our doctors and hygienists share one standard across every discipline: treatment is recommended because a diagnosis supports it, sized to the problem in front of us, and checked at follow-up rather than assumed successful. You will meet specialists whose entire practice is the discipline your case needs — and a general team that knows your mouth well enough to notice when something has changed.

Technology and Visiting

The studio works with 3D CBCT imaging, digital treatment planning, and laser technology — including LANAP for gum disease and NightLase for snoring — because each of them changes a decision or improves an outcome. Imaging shows bone, nerves, sinuses, and root anatomy in three dimensions before treatment begins; digital plans map orthodontic movement and cosmetic work in advance; at-home sleep testing replaces guesses about breathing with measurements taken in your own bed.

Technology that cannot meet that standard does not get a place in the plan.

You can reach us at 54 Warren St, between Greenwich Street and West Broadway, steps from the Chambers Street subway hub (1, 2, 3, A, C, E), with attended garages on Warren Street and Greenwich Street within a block. We are open Monday to Friday from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM, Saturday from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM, and Sunday from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM.

Book online at any time or call (212) 561-5303 — new patients are welcome, and same-day slots are held daily for dental emergencies.

The Standard Behind the Work

The studio's name for its standard is simple: nothing irreversible happens on the strength of a guess. Teeth are imaged before they are drilled, grafted, aligned, or removed; plans are written before they are billed; results are reviewed after they are delivered.

That standard holds for a single filling and for a full-arch reconstruction alike, and it is why our consultations sometimes end in watchful waiting instead of treatment — a plan that says 'not yet' is a plan doing its job.

It also shapes how we handle the business of dentistry. Fees are presented in writing, stage by stage, before treatment begins; insurance coverage is verified and explained against that plan; and no stage starts until you have seen its place in the whole. Patients comparing practices should compare exactly this: not the promise, but the paper. We have kept patients for years at a time on the strength of plans that did what they said.

Practicing in Lower Manhattan Since 2007

Lower Manhattan is a demanding neighborhood to practice in — patients are informed, schedules are unforgiving, and reputations travel by word of mouth faster than by advertising. The studio has grown since 2007 the slow way: one kept plan, one checked result, one family at a time.

Our Google rating, earned across hundreds of reviews, reflects that accumulation rather than any single campaign, and we read every review the way we read a follow-up examination — as information about what to do better.

Whether you found us through a neighbor, a search, or a walk past our door on Warren Street, the offer is the same: a thorough examination, an honest reading of what it shows, and a written plan you can think over without pressure. Book online at any time or call (212) 561-5303, and hold us to every word of it.

Access, Appointments, and Records

Access matters as much as expertise, so the practical facts are kept simple. The studio is wheelchair accessible, reachable by elevator, and a few minutes' walk from accessible subway stations; attended garages on Warren Street and Greenwich Street sit within a block for patients who drive.

Appointments run on a schedule designed to be kept — we hold same-day slots for emergencies rather than borrowing them from booked patients, and we confirm every appointment in advance so a change in your day does not become a surprise in ours.

Records and referrals move quickly here because they rarely need to leave the building: when a case does call for an outside specialist or a physician's input — sleep medicine, for instance — we coordinate it directly and keep the whole plan in one chart. Your information stays with the team treating you, and your history accumulates in one place, visit after visit, year after year.

One Floor, One Chart, One Conversation

Most dental practices are organized around a single pair of hands, and their bottlenecks show it: the hygienist's finding waits for the doctor's free minute, the specialist's opinion waits for a referral letter and another office's calendar. This team was built the other way.

Doctors, hygienists, periodontists, endodontists, orthodontists, implant surgeons, and the pediatric team share one floor at 54 Warren St, one patient chart, and a standing daily conversation about the patients in it. A finding at a morning hygiene visit can become a specialist's opinion the same day, because the specialist is down the hall and the imaging is already in the chart.

The pediatric and adult teams coordinate the same way, which matters in a neighborhood of families: a parent in one chair and a child in another are not two separate practices' worth of paperwork, they are one family's plan, sequenced together — the child's airway question reaching the orthodontist who already knows the parents' history, the parents' restorative work scheduled around the school calendar the front desk already has. Since 2007, under Dr.

Nina Izhaky's direction, that has been the studio's working definition of a team: not a roster of names, but a loop short enough that nothing about a patient has to be explained twice.

What to Expect From This Team

Expect, first, that the plan will be written. Every recommendation this team makes — whatever the specialty, whoever the doctor — is recorded in a plan you can take home, with the order of treatment, the alternatives considered, and the costs stated before work begins.

Expect, second, that the people are findable: the coordinators who schedule you are the same people who will call with your imaging results and your follow-up reminders, and the doctor who planned your treatment is the doctor the plan names. And expect, finally, to be told when the honest answer is to watch rather than treat — a team paid for its judgment, rather than its procedures, can afford that sentence, and uses it.

Questions are welcome at every step, in person, online at any hour, or by phone at (212) 561-5303 — Monday to Friday, 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM; Saturday, 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM; Sunday, 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM. The pages for each doctor and team member tell you who they are; this page's promise is about how they work together, and it is the promise the whole studio is organized to keep.

How We Plan Your Care at Tribeca Dental Studio

Every treatment at Tribeca Dental Studio starts with a diagnosis, not a sales pitch. Before we recommend anything, we examine the tooth or area in question, review imaging taken here in the office, and talk through what we see in plain language. You will always know what we recommend, why we recommend it, and what could safely wait.

That recommendation becomes a written plan, so the sequence, the timing, and the reasoning are clear before any treatment begins — and if a simpler option would serve you just as well, that is the option we will put in front of you.

Our studio brings every dental specialty under one roof at 54 Warren St in Tribeca, and it has since 2007. General dentistry, cosmetic care, implant surgery, periodontics, endodontics, orthodontics, airway care, and pediatric dentistry are handled by one team in one place, which means a treatment that touches several specialties is planned as a whole rather than handed off between offices across town.

Your records, your imaging, and your history stay with the same team from the first visit through every follow-up, so nothing is lost between providers and no step is planned in isolation.

We are open Monday to Friday from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM, Saturday from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM, and Sunday from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM. You can book online at any time or call us at (212) 561-5303.

The studio sits between Greenwich Street and West Broadway, steps from the Chambers Street subway hub (1, 2, 3, A, C, E), with attended garages on Warren Street and Greenwich Street within a block of our door for patients who drive in.

Care does not end when the procedure does. We schedule reviews and follow-ups around your life, group staged treatment into planned steps when we can, and use each return visit to check healing and watch the details we flagged together. Between appointments we stay in touch with recall reminders and clear next steps, and if something feels off, we would rather see you quickly than have you wait and wonder.

The goal is a plan you understand, a team you recognize, and results that are checked over time rather than assumed.
