Practice Profile Page

I was highly recommended Dr. Lee from a good friend who has been going to see him for many years. I had been searching for an experienced periodontist for my dad and I am so glad my friend made that introduction! No words can express how grateful we are for what Dr. Lee has done to transform my dad’s life. Prior to meeting Dr. Lee, my dear father had a couple of partial bridges that were coming off due to bone loss which made it very hard for him to eat and to speak properly. He was always self conscious about his teeth and I could see how it was affecting him. But after meeting Dr. Lee through the course of 12 months, he gave my dad a full mouth rehabilitation. If you don’t know what that is, he pretty much replaced almost all my dad’s teeth with a combination of implants and crowns! It’s quite unbelievable to see the transformation in my dad. To this day, he cannot stop bragging about how he has real teeth. Thank you so much, Dr. Lee! If you are looking for a skilled specialist who is also very comforting and sympathetic to your needs, go see Dr. Lee. He has very calming demeanor and really cares about his patients (always checking on my dad!) To top it off, my dad and I were always greeted by such a friendly staff! It is so nice to visit a dental office (quite modern in fact) with positive vibes where everyone is happy and helpful!

I can only say great things about Delaire Dental. The environment is very clean.Front end is warm and inviting. Hygienist are great. Dr Lee is amazing. I had oral surgery preformed in office by Dr. Lee. Dr.Lee was very professional and accommodating. He would take quick breaks when things were to intense for me. I would definitely recommend this practice for your dental needs.

Everyone here is so friendly, and it’s always a positive experience. I can get anxious about dental exams but the technician is always patient and thorough, and it’s a good experience overall. And the dentist always has time to explain things and chat through any concerns, which I appreciate.

I have never had a better dental exam or experience overall. The staff was lovely and very helpful (I forgot my insurance card and the receptionist was adroit at finding a workaround). The space is beautiful and more technologically advanced than any doctor office I’ve ever seen. Dr. Lee has a wonderful “bedside manner” and is clearly expert at his craft. We chatted about a variety of dental topics and then I had the most thorough cleaning I’ve ever experienced. Best part? The goody bag as a parting gift! Thanks Dr. Lee – see you again soon!!

Front desk staff is friendly and accommodating. Hygienists are friendly and skilled. Doctors are knowledgeable, speedy and gentle. Best Novocaine injection I have ever received – didn’t even know it was happening. And minimal post visit discomfort after my recent cavity filling appointment.

The most comfortable a dental visit could be. I went to visit Dr. Lee for a regular check-up. I found the office to be very clean. Dr. Lee is very attentive and focused on providing his patients with a comfortable experience. He took the time to explain to me what he was looking for on my teeth x-rays so that I understood whether any additional work needed to be done. I would highly recommend Delaire Dental.

As most people, I really don’t enjoy going to the dentist’s office. It’s probably this reason that I found myself with a broken tooth and not knowing what to do. My coworker actually recommended I see Dr.Lee and after waiting as long as I could, gave in and made an appointment. I had a certain stereotype of what the experience was going to be like and was dreading the visit. But from the moment I walked into the office, I felt more comfortable. I was seen immediately with little wait, paperwork and xrays were done very efficiently. And Dr.Lee was very down to earth, explained things in a very simple way even though I realized how involved this treatment was going to be. Anyway, long story short…I had to have the tooth extracted, have an implant done, and I just got my crown cemented this week. And even though the whole process took some time, I couldn’t be happier with the whole experience! After all this, I’m really going to try to keep my routine visits….maybe.

Who actually loves their dentist? I mean, sure it’s a necessity but, love? I am now one of those people. I originally started going to Delaire Dental due to their proximity to ktown (YUM) and Dr. Lee’s impressive pedigree – a very well trained and educated dentist AND a periodontist?? One stop shopping for anyone with receding gums! But WOW. I ended up truly LOVING their office! Everyone there treats you like family and I’ve been so welcomed and well cared for, I can’t imagine going any place else. The work done is impeccable, the billing is smooth and honest, and they truly do care about you. It helps a lot that everyone is super cool and friendly! Definitely a no judgement zone for those of you with messed up teeth (I would know) so come on in and they’ll take care of you!

I met Dr. Lee first time via local ad, and he provided me a treatment plan in January 2017, which was including entire teeth cosmetic crowns, plus three implants. Each tooth needed a different fit and adjustment, I have uneven size teeth, and spaces. The treatment started with Invisalign Braces for 8 months, in between implants, and final each crowns tailored to make sure fit nicely and comfortable. Entire treatment last about 20 months. I am very happy to give 5 starts on these (1) no waiting for the appointment and always get to see doctor soon I walked into the office; (2) extremely clean, and simplicity deco; (3) All office staffs are extremely friendly and professional that I have to mention Ania, Eva, Jessica etc. (4) emails and phone calls always work, (5) always attend my concern and schedule addition visit without delay, when Dr. Lee not on site, Dr. Dumanian would me see me, no issue; (6) total customer satisfaction in mind, (7) doctor skills are superb, very discipline, and total confident. We worked together very well. I am happy for entire treatment, and highly recommended.

Hygienist Mariel is amazing! She’s so easy to talk to and does a great job explaining what she’s doing. Shes extremely thorough with cleaning and procedures. I really enjoy appointments with her and feel like she genuinely cares about her work. Dr. Lee is great too and I feel very comfortable with him! All around great office staff and experience.

Best all around care with thoughtfulness and thoroughness at every visit. Dr. Lee and Ania are the best I’ve come across providing dental care. I arrived with two problematic teeth, and Dr. Lee and Ania provided great care, especially emergency care. Office decor is nice, clean, calm, and relaxing with a great variety of music.

I’ve been going to my dentist for a while mainly because he was convenient and close to me. Mostly out of habit really…. But when someone told me about Delaire Dental, I decided to give it a try. I’m so glad I did! First impression, I’ve never seen a dentist office like it! It’s very clean and modern looking without that typical clinic feel. Anyway, Dr.Lee was really friendly, nice, and explained everything to me before he started treatment. I’m glad I made the switch – I’m definitely coming back for my next cleaning.

I LOVE Delaire Dental. I’ve been coming for about 3 years now. The office is so clean and comforting. The Staff friendly and welcoming. I’m so lucky I found this place Dr Lee is absolutely amazing. Never do I wait more than 5minutes to be seen. Today I woke up with a dental emergency and was taken care of with no problem. So guys if you are for the best Dental Team look no further. Thank you again to my DD Family !

Dr. Lee is an excellent dentist. I needed a tooth pulled and three implants done and he was brilliant at every step of the way, from having three bone grafts, a sinus lift, and placing the implants. Anya is also wonderful — I never had to call my insurance company even once because Anya would sort it all out for me. I am extremely happy with the work that Dr. Lee has done and would recommend him highly.

Great work by Dr. Lee – very professional and knowledgeable. Dr. Lee took care of a crown and filling for me that other dentists struggled with. Offices are very clean and comfortable. Staff is efficient and friendly. Best cleaning I have EVER done.I feel lucky to have found a great dentist in NYC. I would highly recommend Delaire Dental.

I saw Dr. Lee in the spring of 2015 after two dentists told me that I needed 6 (six) implants. Dr. Lee suggested to install a splint so that I would be able to keep four of these and furthermore said that I could get by with only one implant for the two molars. To this day, I have no problems with the four teeth thanks to the splint. The cost for this and for the removal of the two molars were competitive even with the prices of dentists in Atlanta (where I subsequently moved and had the one implant done). Dr. Lee saved me a ton of money.

Very clean facilities. Professional and polite staff. Extremely thorough annual cleaning. A higher level of technology used to examine my teeth and potential problem areas. Appointment starts on time and Dr. Lee is forthright about the cost of his care and his staff helps you to clarify what costs your insurance covers, since insurance companies do not make that easy. I look forward to getting my oral care taken care of with gentle and expert attention.

I was highly recommended Dr. Lee from a good friend who has been going to see him for many years. I had been searching for an experienced periodontist for my dad and I am so glad my friend made that introduction! No words can express how grateful we are for what Dr. Lee has done to transform my dad’s life. Prior to meeting Dr. Lee, my dear father had a couple of partial bridges that were coming off due to bone loss which made it very hard to eat and to speak properly. He was always self-conscious about his teeth and I could see how it was affecting him. But after meeting Dr. Lee through the course of 12 months, he gave my dad a full mouth rehabilitation. If you don’t know what that is, he pretty much replaced almost all my dad’s teeth with a combination of implants and crowns! It’s quite unbelievable to see the transformation in my dad. To this day, he cannot stop bragging about how he has real teeth. Thank you so much, Dr. Lee! If you are looking for a skilled specialist who is also very comforting and sympathetic to your needs, go see Dr. Lee.

It’s so nice to visit a dental office with positive vibes where everyone is so helpful!

I made an appointment for my husband and I through ZocDoc, and I am so glad that we chose Dr. Lee at Delaire Dental.  Dr. Lee was very patient and explained everything from X-rays through the cleaning/exam.  I felt very calm and at ease.  My husband, who is a bit of a nervous patient at the dentist, was extremely impressed with how gentle Dr. Lee was, and how straight-forward he was.  Dr. Lee and his staff will not try to “sell” you on procedures that you don’t need, and I particularly like that!  Very knowledgeable Dr and staff, with a nice clean and high-tech office. Definitely the place to go for those that normally “fear” the dentist, or for those who may have “waited a little longer than suggested” to see one.

Why didn’t I switch to Delaire Dental sooner!? I’ve lived in Manhattan for over 5 years now…and for many years my interactions with dentists have been limited to cleaning visits twice a year. And because it was never anything too complicated, I didn’t feel it was necessary to find a new one. But I stumbled onto Delaire Dental when asking my friends where I could find a good periodontist in the city.One of them suggested I check out Dr. Lee. As soon as I walked in the door, I was in love with the look and feel of the dental office – it was modern, super clean (a must for me), and very artistic. Oh, and there are tons of windows! I was a little scared because it was my first dental implant but Dr. Lee was very patient and understanding. He put me at ease and explained to me all the steps and what my options are. I didn’t feel rushed at all. I’m grateful for the kindness and care they showed me.

I’ve been seeing Dr. Lee now for five years. He’s a wonderful dentist!! I was highly recommended Dr. Lee from a good friend who has been going to see him for many years.

My previously root-exposed teeth are now held fast by bionic gums like a G.I.Joe with kung fu grip. I recently went for receding gum line treatment from periodontist Dr. Michael Lee. He explained the procedure, expectations, and proper care in unrushed detail. The entire staff was super friendly during the initial and follow up visits. I was really dreading the anesthetic shots (bad memories from wisdom teeth removal ages ago). Maybe the pre-shot topical anesthetics have recently improved or this doctor has much steadier hands, but the entire procedure was surprisingly totally painless. Except about 3 hours after the procedure, you’ll definitely want to take that pain med!

I used to come here when I worked in midtown.  It’s right on 5th avenue right by the Empire State Building.  So convenient!  It is very easy to make an appointment.  The staff here are excellent.  Also, the office is very clean and modern.  All the equipment looks brand new.  Dr. Lee is very thorough but gentle.  More importantly he explains all the work that needs to be done.  He definitely cares about his patients.  I highly recommend!
