As you can imagine, this wasn't a procedure I was looking forward to, but knew I needed to have it done. Dr. Russo was great each step of the way. They were so thorough and made sure I understood my surgical options, the process and cost, as well as exactly what I needed to do in order to heal correctly and quickly. I would highly recommend them for this procedure.

I highly recommend Dr. Russo. I went to him for my gum recession; I needed gum grafts on 5 teeth, especially because I wanted to get braces (and wanted to prevent further damage).
First, the staff is amazing. Everyone has been so nice in the few months they have worked with me. The office is always clean and the receptionists are responsive, friendly, and they answered all the questions I had!
Dr. Russo is great. He also answered all the questions I had and took the time to explain my treatment plan in detail before starting anything. He split my gum graft procedures into two appointments so

Dr. Russo is my favorite dentist truly. I have done a lot of dental work with him and am very happy to have him as my doctor. Dr. Russo is a very knowledgeable provider who knows his stuff and tells you how it is and what is best for the patient. I would not pick anyone else to take care of my periodontal needs and was very lucky to be referred to Dr. Russo.

Our 9 year old son was told by his dentist that he needed to have a gum graft. This terrified him since he is afraid of blood and IVs. However, during the consultation, Dr. Russo explained that: 1)he could use novocaine during the procedure and that an IV wasn't necessary; 2) it wouldn't take long at all; and 3) it was easier than a filling for a cavity or having a tooth pulled.
He had a parent with him during the procedure and did fine. Since the gum graft, he told his teacher and friends, it wasn't bad at all, thanks to his great doctor.
Everyone in the office truly cares about the patients

I feel that I was very fortunate to have been referred to Dr. Russo five years ago when I needed a gum graft. He was very straight forward in telling me what needed to be done, what to expect in terms of healing/recovery and precise figures for his fees. His work was performed in a very professional fashion with a strong commitment for my comfort. A year and a half later, I needed a second graft. The results were the same. I am now being treated by Dr. Russo for a cracked tooth which was extracted in preparation for an implant. Once again, I found it very comforting to have such a competent professional

Hi, I am 36 years old and I had an impacted upper right canine.
My whole saga started when I broke my baby tooth on a piece of uncooked popcorn. I then spent a couple of years with a gap and was embarrassed to smile.
I was recommended to Dr. Russo to discuss what my options were if, and when, the canine tooth would ever come down. He told me the best option would be to remove the remainder of the baby tooth and then have the impacted canine surgically exposed and brought down into the correct place with braces. I was terrified by the idea of having surgery and braces for this. He made me feel

I had implant and bone grafting done by Dr. Russo on a tooth that had been bothering me for some time. Root canal surgery did nothing for me, so I checked out getting a dental implant as a solution. I am so happy I chose this route, and even happier that I chose such a wonderful caring dentist (periodontist). I experienced absolutely no pain with either the bone grating or the implant procedure. The tooth removal was the worst part, but over in a second!!! Now I have a natural looking perfect tooth that will never cause me any more pain, and will be with me forever! Thanks for a fantastic experience

I was very nervous about the gum graft that I needed. But Dr. Russo and his staff made the experience surprisingly easy! The staff was very friendly and Dr. Russo made me feel very comfortable and confident with the treatment he provided.
I would recommend Dr. Russo to everyone with Periodontal needs.
