I showed up for my appointment that I booked 6 weeks ahead of time and they had canceled my visit for a surgery and no one had called me to notify me. They were unable to get me in in despite the fact that no one called to cancel or notify me of a cancellation. Horribly unprofessional. I absolutely do not recommend this practice. read more

I came to have a gum graft surgery done late last year - 2023 on one of my upper back teeth which failed. The graft shifted upwards and was not successful. I don't think the reason for why the gum graft surgery failed was well understood. Dr. Lipson mentioned that sometimes it just happens. He was at least willing to re-do the surgery at no additional cost. So I had a second Gum graft surgery early 2024. Unfortunately, this also failed as after a few weeks the graft started to slough off. Dr. Lipson and his staff are very professional, I just didn't get the result I was hoping for. I basically ended up suffering for a total of about three months after two surgeries for no reason. Ultimately, Dr. Lipson thought that my pain tolerance was high so I subconsciously chewed on the side of the graft. Hence why it failed. But again, I don't think the reason for why the graft failed was well understood. I felt as though I tried my best to follow all post op instructions the first time, and I was extra careful especially after the second surgery. I ended up getting a second opinion, and another periodontist felt as though there wasn't much of an attachment site for a graft to be possible. So they were recommending two surgeries, one to form a horizontal attachment site and then place a graft on top of the attachment. Since it was two surgeries the fees were astronomical.. So I'm still left with figuring out how I'm going to get my issues fixed. Just want to put it out there, you can try it for yourself but it may not be successful. read more

The best!! A highly skilled, kind and compassionate physician with great office staff, especially Carol and Michelle. Thank you Dr. David Lipson read more

I went for dental implant. The experience was ONE OF THE BEST EVER! I have never seen a dentist that's more capable and provides such authentic service, professional, and extremely friendly. Highly recommended! Great staff warm welcoming. Doctor David Lipson is awesome, professional, friendly, highly skilled. read more

This office came highly recommended to me. Although we did not end up needing the work done here, the office staff is very nice and tries to be helpful providing us advice and insurance information. We really appreciated it. read more

I started seeing Dr Lipson when I was 25-years old because I had idiopathic early onset periodontitis. I've been seeing him for the last 18-years. He basically saved my teeth from falling out. Everyone in the office is super friendly. I highly recommend him! read more

I went to see Dr Lipson for an extraction evaluation. Even though it turned out that I was not going to be his patient since I needed a different kind of treatment, he spent a long time very kindly explaining my options. He even said I could call him any time if I had more questions. Thanks to Dr. Lipson I left his office with the confidence that I knew what I had to do. I highly recommend him! read more

Dr. Lipson (David) did four gum grafts for me over the course of a couple years. He and his staff were extremely competent and made me feel at ease every time. Dr. Lipson is caring and responds immediately to any issue. I was prone to some gum issues due to my genetics and the structure of my teeth and he worked with my dentist to create a plan. In one case his solution was pure genius - he had my dentist build up my tooth with a little extra material and this had the amazing effect of making the gum "grow" down to the tooth and fill a small gap. This was aesthetic, but important to me, and Lipson's empathy and focus on fixing it for me was so impressive. Everyone at Dr. Lipson's office has been there a very long time. They work as a team and you feel well taken care of. Dr. Lipson and his team are really exceptional and if I ever need this sort of work again, I would certainly return. read more

I wanted to share my experience with Dr Lipson so that others could avoid his services if at all possible. My dentist recommended him for a gum graft and unfortunately, I didn't check into alternative providers. David Lipson was not only extremely unprofessional and inappropriate, he completely missed the fact that he fitted my temporary guard wrong and it was causing ongoing bleeding and extreme pain. During and after my procedure, he kept telling me that I wouldn't remember any of it. So I guess that's why he spent the entire time talking with his young nurse about the various escapades he'd had the last week at bars. He talked about making out with a woman at a bar and then not going home with her. I was sitting there with my mouth open and nothing to do except listen. It was unbelievable. What was worse was that he fitted me with a guard for the roof of my mouth that totally dug into my mouth and caused me such severe pain and bleeding that I could not believe how painful the procedure was. He kept saying that pain is normal and he couldn't find the source of the bleeding. FInally after 2-3 days of this he figured it out and reshaped the guard. It was awful. I kept thinking to myself maybe his dad is the experienced one and David is just sponging off his good reputation. I'll never go back there and I'd suggest you avoid him too! read more

Dr. Lipson is my periodontist. He has put in a dental implant & connective tissue graft. Although I don't recommend having these kinds of procedures done unless necessary (it does really hurt), but if anyone ever has a misfortune of having to go through it Dr. Lipson is the person to go to. Their receptionist, Carol is very nice & all of his staffs are great, too. read more

I like Dr. Lipson a lot. I have had periodontists in NY, NJ, Boston and the Bay Area. He's young, energetic, and spends time with his patients to explain options and alternatives. The reason why young and energetic are important characteristics is because periodontics seems to be an early science. There are few cures out there, much more knowledge about maintenance. So as new discoveries are made, it is important to have a periodontist who is not set in his/her ways and is open to new treatments. Dr. Lipson is that... He also just treated me for a resorption issue (yeah, had to read about it...) The procedure went quickly, painlessly and without complication. Everything he said I would experience, I did. Very methodical. I like that... read more

I was referred to Dr. David Lipson by my general dentist. I had gum issue and went to a different Periodontist and was quoted a ridiculous amount of money that I could not afford to get my teeth fixed. I was so, so happy to meet with Dr. Lipson and his staff. Everyone is so nice and the atmosphere there is very warming and welcoming. I immediately felt comfortable the minute I walked in that office. After four treatments with Dr. Lipson, my gum issue was completely gone, and I was able to save my teeth. I am so thankful to Dr. Lipson and his staff. These are very honest people that will not try to sell you fancy treatments that you don't need, and will do everything they can to help you. A BIG kudos to Dr. Lipson and his staff. You are my true hero!!! read more

Highly recommend Dr Lipson. I fully agree with the other positive reviews here. From my experience, he is highly competent, trustworthy, and thorough with years of experience in his field. His dental office is a traditional looking facility, no fancy décor, videos or up-selling. But the depth of understanding and medical/ dental judgement is clear. He tells you exactly what is the best procedure in simple terms and no more. His diagnosis was 100% accurate, the treatment was painless and comfortable. read more

Extreme pain started at night. My regular dentist was right, I had a cracked tooth. My dad referred me to Dr. Lipson, who he, 87, had had a ton of work done with. I called just before noon, and had the tooth out before 3 with minimal pain. His office staff is great. He was excellent, professional and willing to explain the procedure every step of the way (something I like and find not all dentists like). While I don't recommend needing an extraction and an implant, if you do, I highly recommend Dr. Lipson. read more

Dr. Lipson consulted for us, based on a recommendation from our dentist that my son (age 17) be seen for gum issues. He was amazing. My son is very uncomfortable with medical professionals and procedures in general, but Dr. Lipson made him feel at ease and helped him understand what the issue was and what was necessary for follow-up care. Dr. Lipson was kind, knowledgeable, and compassionate. I felt that he truly cared about and had our best interests at heart. He has a conservative approach (in terms of treatment) and wants to do what's right for the patient; he is NOT looking to make a quick buck or up-sell patients on services that are not needed. I appreciated Dr. Lipson's care, knowledge, and integrity. We will be returning to him for the periodontal treatment my son needs! read more

I was referred to Dr. Lipson by my General Dentist for a consultation. I was very impressed with his staff and how they made you feel comfortable and at ease. Dr. Lipson was GREAT! He actually drew a picture of my tooth and explained what was taking place with my one tooth. I felt at ease and he indicated that at that point in time I did not need the surgery that was previously indicated and that he would see me in 6 months to determine further what may or may not be done. This was a blessing; Thank you Dr. Lipson for your expertise and care. Margo H read more

Just got treated for resorption of a tooth. Was clear and up front with the options. Explained all the steps along the way and was frank and honest with the assessment. Chose the more conservative route. Procedure (root canal next door + gum surgery) took one hour. No pain afterwards. Great assistants too. read more

Clean, professional, experienced and friendly. So far I've had sinus lift, tooth extraction and bone graft done. I am very please and happy I chose David Lipson as my periodontist. Everything went very well and I am surprised I didn't need any pain medication after only 1-2 days after the procedures. read more

I was referred to Dr. David Lipson after a troubling dental x ray and just had a tooth extraction/bone graftl surgery performed by him and his staff. The procedure went very smoothly and I am healing up well. He and his staff are efficient, professional, friendly and top rate at what they do. I felt I was in great hands and would recommend them to anyone needing similar periodontic services. read more

I saw Dr Lipson for an implant. On my front tooth. I'm 30, so getting it right mattered a lot to me. He's friendly and reassuring, and a perfectionist (which may mean it takes longer but means you get it done right). 9 months on, I'm smiling again and I can't thank Dr Lipson and his staff enough. I really felt they cared that it worked out perfectly, and they were incredibly supportive during a traumatic time. But most importantly, they were absolutely totally and utterly brilliant dentists. read more

I was sent to Dr Dave Lipson by my primary dentist to look further into a area that had been causing me extreme pain for several days . I was a bit of a wreak when I arrived having been in pain a few days and not much sleep . His office staff was waiting for me and greeted me by name when I arrived . Dr Lipson and his dental assistant gave me exceptional care through this very tough day and made me feel very comfortable . Dr Lipson was able to get me out of pain right away and diagnose me . I would highly recommend him after my experience today and look forward to allowing him to treat me as a patient . read more

I am terrified of dentists and as a result have a lot of complicated issues with my teeth and have seem A LOT of dentists over the years... None were as good, kind, relaxing, atentative, skillful and professional as Dr. David read more

Very impressed with care and attention, I did not need any treatment, just an evaluation, the dr.was very honest and explained everything very well, If I need treatment would definitely return read more

My dentist said I needed a deep cleaning. On the recommendation of a friend, I came here for a second opinion. I felt my exam here was quick and thorough. It was clearly explained why I did NOT need a deep cleaning. So no extra procedure was recommended. read more

I recently had a second extraction by Dr. David Lipson and he is truly amazing at what he does. His levels of expertise, experience, and technique are such that even the anesthetic injections were painless - and those are some pretty big needles! He will carefully explain what he is doing through the entire process as well, which I found very helpful & comforting. His staff is outstanding - very patient, warm, and caring. That evening, I had no pain or discomfort whatsoever and never needed ibuprofen. Next morning, I went to my usual spin class and felt great! At this point, I consider Dr. Lipson a genius at his profession and would highly recommend Lipson Periodontics. read more

I had my first appointment with Dr. Dave this week, and was incredibly satisfied with my entire experience and office visit. Dr. Dave's staff were friendly, efficient, and very skilled. They made me feel at ease throughout the examination process, and quickly put to rest my nerves about going to the dentist. After analyzing my X-rays, Dr. Dave provided me with a full consultation that was thorough and comprehensive. He is personable , professional, trustworthy and and someone I look forward to seeing for further treatment. read more

Recommended. I'm very happy after a few implants, an extraction and others. Great quality of work, great care, no pain. Front desk lady usually forgets about me, but that's ok. Dr Lipson did a wonderful job - I guess he's as good as one could get. read more

was referred to Dr. Lipson by my dentist for a consultation. He examined my mouth, took measurements, examined xrays my dentist had sent him, and spoke with me for nearly an hour. He did a thorough job of explaining the condition of my mouth, answered all my questions in detail. The consultation charge was $170 and I felt I got my money's worth. read more

Few months ago I had graft done and I have to say I am very pleased with the result. The surgery is what it is...a surgery, so do not expect it to be a walk in the park, it is painful for a few days, but Dr. David Lipson prepared me for each and every step properly, provided me with proper medication and instructions to make it as easy as possible to go through the whole process. Everything healed beautifully and looks and feels normal now. Dr. Lipson was very, very nice, professional and attentive through whole process and his staff in the office is very pleasant with a great sense of humor. If I had to do it again I would certainly go back and never hesitate to have it done by Dr. Lipson. I would highly recommend him for this kind of procedure. read more

A great place to go. He spends lots of time carefully explaining options etc and seems to be technically very proficient. I've had two successful implants by him. read more
