Services
Preventative Dentistry
Report
Our primary focus is ensuring that you not only have a fantastic smile, but also feel and perform your best. Research has now connected oral health (specifically gingival inflammation) with overall health. Bacteria associated with gingival inflammation and periodontal disease have been linked to serious health conditions such as:
Cardiovascular disease
Endocarditis,
Pregnancy complications, including premature birth and low birthweight

Crowns
Report
Crowns are indicated on teeth with more extensive decay or teeth that have had root canal treatment. Crowns fit over the entire circumference of the tooth, providing support and a barrier for the healthy tooth structure underneath.
Crowns can be made from a variety of material – metal, porcelain fused to metal or all porcelain. In most cases, we will use all porcelain crowns. Modern porcelains, such as Zirconia are very durable and strong enough to withstand the forces of chewing and biting. Zirconia crowns have been shown to have a life expectancy equivalent to that of metal or porcelain fused to metal. Also, because all porcelain crowns are fabricated from a single material there is no risk of the porcelain separating or chipping off of the metal structure, which can happen with porcelain fused to metal crowns.

Veneers
Report
Dental Veneers are a thin shell of porcelain that are bonded to front teeth. They can be used for cosmetic purposes to close gaps and change the contour or shape of the tooth. Veneers may also be used for front teeth that have chipped or cracked. Veneers offer a minimally invasive, and safe way to rejuvenate a worn or aged smile.
Veneers are made of porcelain and bonded to natural tooth structure. Modern dental porcelains are extremely durable and will last many years. Also, porcelain offers the translucency and overall esthetic appearance of natural teeth.

Dental Implants
Report
Dental implants are the ideal solution for missing teeth. Whether you need to replace one tooth or a full arch of missing teeth, dental implants will function and feel like your natural teeth. Our team restores teeth after the surgical placement of the implant has been completed by a periodontist or oral surgeon. We collaborate and plan implant cases with top periodontists and oral surgeons. Using 3D technologies, your implant team will ensure that the implant is in the optimal location for esthetic restoration and long term durability.
Invisalign
Report
Invisalign uses a series of clear aligners to straighten your teeth – without the need for metal brackets or wires. Invisalign is used to close gaps between teeth, remove overcrowding of teeth, or to correct problems with bite. While many view Invisalign as a cosmetic dental procedure, correct spacing between teeth is important to maintain a clean, healthy mouth. When teeth are too tight, pateints have difficulty flossing between teeth. And, when teeth are too far apart, food will get stuck between teeth.

Dr. Pelts and her staff provide fantastic dental care. Dr. Pelts is both meticulous and caring. She is excellent at communication; she explains her findings and plan at each visit and is easily reached by telephone in an emergency. The staff is friendly and organized. The office is clean and during the pandemic they have gone out of their way to ensure the safety of their patients and staff. I highly recommend Dr. Pelts.

LOVE LOVE LOVE Dr. Martin and his team. They are always accommodating and friendly and Dr. Martin’s work is the absolute best. Sharice at the front desk always has a smile on her face and has remembered me from day one. It always feels like I’m going home when I’m there and even though I hate the dentist I am happy to be there! Recently, I chipped my tooth and was very distressed and they got me in the next day and Dr. Martin’s repair was flawless. I also moved out of the city but I still make the trip to see Dr. Martin because I won’t go anywhere else!

Dr. Martin is an awesome dentist. I was a patient of his from 2008-2014. I was very upset when I had to stop going to him due to insurance changes. I recently went to a terrible dentist who told me I needed a lot of work done, I did not hesitate to call the best dentist I’ve had for a second opinion. I called Dr. Martin’s office and was given an appointment very quickly.
I had not seen Dr. Martin since 2014, but he and his office manager Sherice remembered me immediately and welcomed me back. Dr. Martin and his team worked with me to not only calm me down, but also to help me understand what dental work I needed and what I didn’t. I trust Dr. Martin and his team, I will never make the mistake of going to another dentist again.

Dr Layne Martin is a wonderful dentist. I needed a new front tooth and this is the hardest match you can make. He and his lab did wonderful work and made a match that is indistinguishable from the real tooth. Recently I broke a molar on a Sunday and I was in his chair at 9:30 the next morning getting it repaired. I highly reccomend him.

Dr. Martin and his staff are the best. Prompt, friendly, professional, helpful in every way. If I'm tired they make me a coffee, and if I need to reschedule an appointment they can be reached by phone, email, and even text. They pull off the impossible of making going to the dentist something to look forward to.

I've visited Dr. Martin's office several times now and he and his staff are professional, courteous and patient! His office runs like clockwork and his chair-side manner is calm and I never ever feel rushed when I am having a procedure. He answers all my questions and is undoubtedly one of the best Dentists in NYC.

Dr Martin thinks only about the patient's well being and nothing else. He is a man of huge integrity and looks out for not only my teeth, but some family members teeth as well. Furthermore, every decision he makes always benefits us and not his bottom line. In addition, he surrounds himself with a staff that possesses the same values to create an extremely comfortable experience. I trust Dr Layne Martin and give him nothing but the highest praise.

Everyone is so outstanding in this office!!! Their new space is absolutely beautiful, I enjoyed having my teeth cleaned while looking out onto Central Park!!! It was the most relaxing cleaning I have ever had. Kristen is always so wonderful to talk to, and she is very thorough without being to invasive. Dr. Layne is of course wonderful as well and completely attentive!!

My visit at Dr. Layne was very exceptional. He explained every step of the procedure as it happens which makes the me feel more comfortable and less anxious. I have been to a lot of good dentists but Dr. Layne is by far the the greatest. From start to finish you are treated with respect, compassion and professionalism.
