Dr. Robert Veligdan brings 35 years of general dentistry experience to his current practice, located in Midtown Manhattan, and also offers his patients the most advanced treatments in cosmetic and restorative dentistry. Patients of Dr. Veligdan benefit from state-of-the-art technologies, such as digital X-rays, which reduce radiation exposure by 90 percent; nonsurgical periodontal (gum) therapy; comfortable anesthetics; and the latest cosmetic and restorative procedures. Dr. Veligdan graduated from the University of Pittsburgh's School of Dental Medicine, where he earned his Doctor of Dental Medicine. Early in his career, Dr. Veligdan made several breakthroughs in the minimally invasive technique of porcelain laminate veneers and even helped create a number of the earliest cements for bonding the veneers. Because of Dr. Robert Veligdan's demonstrated expertise in this relatively new technique, Columbia University's College of Dental Medicine recruited the innovative dentist to create a training video and instruct hundreds of dental students to use porcelain veneers, which are more aesthetically agreeable and less intrusive than conventional caps and crowns. Finding his teaching a positive and rewarding experience, Dr. Robert Veligdan continued to work as an Assistant Clinical Professor of Dentistry at Columbia University for over 24 years at the same time that he managed his own private practice. Dr. Veligdan lectures all over the world on many general and cosmetic dentistry topics and appeared on numerous informative television shows such as ABC's Good Morning America. Dr. Veligdan appears on New Life Magazine's list of New York's leading dentists, and the Consumers' Research Council of America named him one of America's Top Dentists.
