Straight up Collins
Stay on Collins Avenue (A1A) north through Surfside and Bal Harbour, over the Haulover Inlet bridge, into Sunny Isles Beach; the office is at 16690 Collins Avenue, Suite 701, in Milton Towers. It is slow at rush hour, so tell the front desk where you are coming from and we will suggest a time that avoids the worst of the traffic. The building has parking for visitors.
When the whole mouth needs a plan
Full-mouth rehabilitation treats most or all of the teeth under one plan, in an order that lets each stage heal: disease controlled first, then teeth kept, restored or replaced, then the final work. Dr. Baruch Tetri runs the plan and does the gum treatment, the implants and the surgery himself; crowns, bridges and veneers are designed in our laboratory.
Several steps, one visit, when it is safe
In a suitable case, extractions, implants and a fixed temporary can share one visit. PIC photogrammetry records each implant position, and the bridge is milled in the laboratory down the hall. The diagnosis before it, the healing after it and the final teeth cannot be hurried. See All-on-X and teeth in a day.
Jaw pain and the bite
Pain, clicking or locking in the jaw gets a diagnosis before any irreversible dental work: history and examination first, functional records only when they help answer a clinical question, and steps that can be undone before anything permanent. See TMJ and jaw pain and bruxism and tooth wear.
Sedation for long visits, and for short ones
Long restorative and surgical visits can be done with sedation, and so can any other adult treatment, even a cleaning, after a medical review, where our permits and team allow. Plan the ride: an adult escort must take you home down Collins and stay with you, and you cannot drive for the rest of the day. The escort rule and the levels.
Cosmetic care, and the children’s days
Veneers and smile design are planned around the gums and the bite and previewed on your own teeth. From November 25, our pediatric partner, Dr. Danielle A. Beaudoin, DDS, sees children on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays; see pediatric dentistry.
Questions patients ask
I have been told I need everything done. Where do I start?
With a diagnosis. We compare the reasonable paths, say what can be kept and what has to go, and give you the plan in writing, with the stages, the alternatives and a timeline in months.
Can it all be done in one day?
Several coordinated steps can happen in one visit. The diagnosis before it, the healing after it and the final teeth cannot; a finished mouth in a day describes the temporary.
Who takes me home after sedation?
A responsible adult must come with you and stay with you afterward. We confirm the escort before the appointment, not on the day.
Is there a New York office?
There is no walk-in New York office. Selected patients are seen in New York by private, pre-scheduled appointment, arranged through the Sunny Isles front desk after their records have been reviewed.
