I would like to express my sincere gratitude for the excellent care and treatment I received. After consulting with other specialists who told me that some of my teeth would need to be extracted, I found an alternative here that truly changed my situation. From the initial evaluation, the doctor was extremely careful, thorough, and professional. He examined and diagnosed each tooth individually, clearly explaining the condition of each one, the available treatment options, and what I could expect throughout the entire process. His dedication and clear explanations gave me a great deal of confidence. He ultimately performed the LANAP laser treatment, and the results have been incredible. Thanks to his experience, expertise, and dedication, he was able to save my teeth when I had previously been told that extraction was practically the only option. Throughout the entire treatment, he was very careful, patient, and committed to achieving the best possible outcome. I am deeply grateful for his work and would definitely recommend him to anyone dealing with periodontal problems, especially before making such an important decision as having teeth extracted. An excellent professional and an excellent experience.
marianela cardenas · September 2, 2026 Dr. David Malakov is an amazing professional. After doing careful research, I learned about LANAP surgery, what it entailed, and that Dr. David Malakov was able to perform it. From the very beginning, he was welcoming, professional, and answered all of my questions without hesitation. Everything was explained to me in detail, including what would happen on the day of the surgery and what I needed to do afterward. I felt confident that I was in good hands. After carefully following the post-surgery instructions, I noticed a significant improvement. My gums shrunk and they no longer bleed. It was truly one of the best decisions I could have made for myself. I would also like to mention that the receptionists at the front desk are incredibly kind, friendly, and welcoming. Overall, this was a 10/10 experience. If you’re reading this because you’re hesitant about getting LANAP surgery, take this as your sign, you’re in good hands!
Kayleen · August 13, 2026 This periodontist save my life. I had bleeding gums and almost lost Most of my teeth. Now my mouth smells great! I got my confidence back! Thanks you Dr David Malakov!
Shazeeda Hamid · June 25, 2026 This guy does such an amazing job, I’ve never been to a better dentist.
Adrian Cruzado · June 18, 2026 Got some work done last year...Dr. Malakov was very knowledgeable and broke everything down. The procedure was like any other normal dental work...after the anesthesia you dont really feel any pain what so ever I recommend anyone looking for a Periodontist.
GLB_WavyMcGrady_ · June 14, 2026 Dr. Malakov is an excellent dentist, very knowledgeable and approachable. I had several issues with my teeth, including an extraction, a sinus lift and 2 implants. He made the process painless and took great care to streamline the procedures in order to minimize any discomfort or stress. He explained everything very clearly and made sure that I understood. I highly recommend him and his great team.
Barbara Gulotta · May 29, 2026 Dr. Malakov was incredibly helpful, professional, and kind. I was in so much pain and he saw me the same day I called. He was very attentive with my evaluation and took the time to clearly explain everything to me. I felt heard, cared for, and much more at ease after seeing him. I’m very grateful for his help and would highly recommend Dr. Malakov to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and trustworthy dentist. 🦷🙏✨
Dasha Cherkasova · May 27, 2026 Excellent service, honest assessment of oral needs, and caring execution. I am thrilled with my results, and with Dr. Malakov and the entire team. Front desk to dental chair!
James Thorbs · May 21, 2026 Very caring doctor and explains everything, much appreciated
Levon Suleymanov · May 9, 2026 Could not be happier with Dr. Malakov and his team. I had been stressed out for nearly a year with gum issues around my front crowns and during that period I saw two other periodontists who both recommended crown lengthening, but I kept waiting to see if the gum would improve on its own. Crown lengthening surgery is a big deal and I wasn't convinced I truly needed it. Plus my insurance wouldn't cover it. I found Dr. Malakov (who is not in-network for me) through his google reviews and I'm SO glad I did. He recommended LANAP instead of crown lengthening and it was absolutely the right call. The other periodontists and my own dentist never mentioned laser as an option. I didn't even know it existed as an option. Immediately after the surgery my gum already looked better and now, 1.5 month later, it is back to normal. Can't thank Dr. Malakov enough. His rates are very reasonable. I felt I was looked after by someone observant, intelligent, capable, thorough and caring. Also shoutout to his amazing receptionist who is the most friendly and professional medical receptionist I've ever come across. The office is organized, efficient and transparent. I am writing this review on my own, no incentives were offered. Highly recommend Dr. Malakov's office!
AZ · April 28, 2026 I had the pleasure of being treated by Dr. David M. for a LANAP laser procedure. The outcome has been excellent—my teeth feel significantly stronger and healthier. I truly appreciate the professionalism and expertise demonstrated throughout the process.
kateryna z · April 28, 2026 I went to dr david malakov best decision I have ever made. my tooth were so loose and I was so stressed out about it seeing this doctor saved my life he did the laser gum treatment and I had no pain. Teeth getting stronger and I'm feeling so much better anyone looking for the best doctor in this area should go see dr david one of the best believe me
Seema Hernandez · March 28, 2026 Dr. David performed the LANAP surgery on me and the results 6 months later were amazing! My mouth feels better than ever, and I didn’t have any recovery pain whatsoever.
Satrohan Lall · March 12, 2026 Dr. Malakov is the absolute best! Both before and after my gum graft surgery he was extremely caring and guided me through every step of the process! I wouldn't recommend anyone but him!
Bryson B · March 2, 2026 I have struggled with periodontal disease since my 20th, I’m 45 now. After losing 4 teeth, paying a lot of money for antibiotics to be applied to my gum( which was like using a bandage on a wound that needs stitches) my old dentist didn’t care since he was getting a lot of money from me at every visit. One day I decided to say good bye to my dentist and to my gum problem. That’s when I came across the You tube page for doctor Malakov. From my first visit I felt that I finally found the right person to put an end to my standing gum disease. Yesterday 2/24/26 I had the LANAP gum surgery and I can assure you that it was a painless procedure. All my life I had so much fear of the regular surgery where my gums had to be cut and then stitched back. Today is day two and I am free of pain or discomfort, my mouth is just a bit sore which is normal. Dr Malakov is very skilled and gentle, he is truly concerned about your mouth health and not just the money. He is very transparent and explains everything so clearly. Thank you so much to the doctor and the staff, you are all incredible. I used to be terrified, but you made me feel so comfortable.
Yenny G · February 26, 2026 Dr. Malokoff understood the assignment and delivered — five stars. His professionalism, knowledge, and genuine care immediately stood out. I had seen several other dentists and never felt the same level of comfort or empathy. With him, it was about my dental health, not the money, which meant a lot — especially with how expensive healthcare can be today.After my LANAP procedure, I’m about 90% better, with almost no sensitivity and much healthier teeth and gums. Everything is better. Highly recommend!
Dee C (Dee) · February 22, 2026 Despues de mi dentista decirme que tenia que remover los 4 dientes frontales de la parte baja busque mas sobre el tema fui con el periodontista y el cambio fue magico. Muy buen servicio de el personal y muy profecional al hacer el trabajo. Muy poco dolor durante el proceso. Los recomiendo al 100%. Tambien debo añadir que pude salvar mis dientes (no lo tube que remover.)…
Rene Collado · February 5, 2026 If you are in need of periodontal care, I HIGHLY recommend Dr. David Malakov! He checks all the boxes to allay any fears you may have concerning the LANAP procedure. He's professional, honest, careful and gentle during the entire procedure, and if you need to speak with him anytime after the procedure, his response is timely! I am two weeks post procedure...I only experienced minimal pain later in the day after the procedure, and I have not experienced any pain to date. The out-of-pocket cost is well worth it!Make sure you follow the post procedure instructions, and you will be satisfied with the results! I wanted to also give a huge thanks to his wonderful staff who are the first you see, and their warm presence makes a huge difference!
P Jones · December 27, 2025 Had a great experience. My gums don’t hurt anymore. Highly recommend. Easy to talk to doc
Salomon Markovich · September 4, 2025 Was referred by my dentist to treat Periodontitis and underwent LANAP with Dr. Malakov. Can't recommend enough! Incredibly friendly, knowledgeable and patient. Would come back again but I hope I take care of myself enough that I don't have to 😬
Tahseen Rahman · July 22, 2025 Really great experience with Dr.Malakov! Everyone was super friendly and made me feel comfortable right away. The dentist was gentle, explained things clearly, and didn’t rush through the appointment. Best part? The pricing was super reasonable—no surprise charges or pressure to do extra stuff. Definitely recommend if you’re looking for great care without breaking the bank! I will be coming back for all my periodontal work! Thank you for a great experience.
Olga Hoff · July 15, 2025 My fiancé was referred to multiple periodontists before we were fortunate enough to find Dr. Malakov. From our very first visit, Dr. Malakov has been a true godsend. He was extremely attentive, thoroughly explained the condition, and took the time to follow up with us personally between appointments. He recommended the LANAP procedure, and after completing two rounds, my fiancé is very pleased with the results. We are grateful for Dr. Malakov’s care and professionalism throughout the entire process.
Lilan Kite · June 26, 2025 Dr. Molakov and his staff are the most amazing and care team I’ve ever had the pleasure of dealing with. I unfortunately had to do the Lanap procedure which isn’t cheap. The doc and his staff found a way to work with me. I truly believe that he and his team are the best at what they do. I am truly thankful. If you have periodontal disease and need a knowledgeable hero and team who is kind/helpful. Head to queens no matter how far you are. It truly worth it. Highly recommend
brandon williams · June 26, 2025 The Staff was professional and Periodontist was exceptional. The place was clean and smelled like heaven
Franklyn Greenaway · June 5, 2025 In November 2024 I went to Dr. Malakov with severely inflamed gums and deep bone loss next to two lower molars. He performed his surgical laser treatment on the affected areas. Six months after the procedure and with careful maintenance, not only was the inflammation eliminated and the bone loss stopped, but some of the lost bone has actually *regenerated*. Thanks so much to Dr. Malakov for his incredible work!
Michael Forgione · June 4, 2025 The thought of losing my teeth makes me feel depressed. I consider meeting Dr. David Malakov a blessing. He's an excellent and meticulous periodontist. His expertise in the LANAP surgery is unparalleled. He saved my teeth and now my gums feel brand new. His professionalism and wonderful bedside manner stems from his genuine care of his patients. He explains the procedure thoroughly and patiently answers all your questions, never in a rush. He would even give you pointers on what procedures that will simply be a waste and you will not benefit from. Thank you, Dr. David Malakov.
Daisy Torres · May 25, 2025 Dr. David Malakov is an incredible doctor who is caring for my best friend of 30 years. Although I am not his patient, if I needed a periodontist, Dr. Malakov would be at the TOP of my list. Years ago, I worked in medical education and was a dental residency program administrator. Watching Dr. Malakov, any program director would be proud! It is CLEAR he has had EXCELLENT training. Not only is he knowledgeable and excellent at his job, but he also has the best bedside manners I have ever seen on a doctor. He is invested, attentive, kind, and sincerely cares about his patients. If you need an outstanding periodontist who cares about the work that needs to be done and the overall well-being of your health, make the call!
NR · April 25, 2025 Great Dr. made me quit smoking after surgery. Highly recommend
fred waldman · April 22, 2025 Great Periodontist, he is really good to communicate patient the situation and the following instructions, good and professional staff. Highest recommended 👌
Denny rivera · March 27, 2025 Excellent doctor great ethics
Dey · January 28, 2025 Dr David is a blessing in disguise. For 5 years I was going to my regular dentist they were charging me additional money for antibiotics for my gums after they do a cleaning. Not addressing the disorder of my gums that needed attention until a new person came aboard and recommended me to Dr David periodontist. My root canal was even worse It never bonded to the bone and it would bleed and move. I finally went to see Dr David he diagnosed the problem, I had to have gum surgery a new procedure laser I can tell you all my teeth are strong. Great work!! To keep my teeth is important to me not root canal, dentures but my own teeth. I would highly recommend this parodontist. I've always looked for an attentive dentist not just money-driven but all the older guys have gone so I'm blessed to find Dr David. My insurance didn't cover everything I paid upfront and he was great enough to refund the difference to me from the insurance. Today I even asked him to do the bottom gum front but he said no, not to waste your money That's what you want to hear from a great upcoming periodontist.
James Bond · January 9, 2025 What a great and honest Doc! I love meeting honest, transparent, and best of all ethical people. I came in expecting a big sales pitch on getting an implant and after examining me he determined that I didn’t necessarily need one and that it actually might not be the best move in the long term. This totally won my admiration and loyalty. Highly recommend!
Mark Cisneros · December 22, 2024 Dr. Malakov is an exceptional periodontist whose expertise and meticulous work with the LANAP laser treatment are unparalleled. He is very professional and he takes the time to explain everything and put you at ease from the first visit. I am very happy with my decision to have Dr. Malakov perform the LANAP surgery and equally happy with my results. It has truly been a great experience, and I dare say better than I expected. If you're seeking a highly skilled specialist who genuinely cares for his patients and strives to achieve the best possible outcomes, you need to visit Dr. Malakov!

Elle Temis · October 31, 2024 Very satisfied and what’s great is Dr Malakov is very easy to be reached and any time I had a question Dr Malakov would call me the same day to answer it. Hard to find that kind of service nowadays! Thank you!
Daniela Buttafarro · October 6, 2024 I had not been to a dentist in over 30 years due to extreme dental phobia and a horrible gag reflex. I went to a local dentist who said I needed to see a periodontist.I was extremely nervous the day of my consultation, but Dr. Malakov immediately put me at ease.I had my lanap procedure 2 weeks ago. Dr. Malakov was extremely kind and patient, even stopping to put my earbuds back in when they fell out. The procedure did not take as long as I had feared.I had minimal discomfort off and on for a few days after the procedure, really minimal.I had several questions in the days following the procedure.Dr. Malakov himself returned calls within minutes.I am so pleased and thankful for Dr. Malakov.

Jon Atoms · August 22, 2024 If i were allowed to give Dr. Malakov ten stars, i would.I had a PAINFUL toothache and I am deathly afraid of dentist. Dr Malakov saw me right away, saved my tooth. Best part was i had my headphones on during the laser procedure and there was ZERO pain. He was done in a song and a half :). The staff is amazing, Dr. Malakov is a kind and gentle Doctor. THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!
L SANTANA · August 2, 2024 Thankfully had a great experience, went to Dr David for a second opinion and glad I did. Would highly recommend! Great bedside manner
Nathan Asher · July 24, 2024 Dr. Malakov saved my wisdom tooth with periodontal laser therapy. He was the first and only doctor to make an effort to save my tooth instead of hastily suggesting to remove it. He was very patient and knowledgeable and walked me through the whole process to make sure I was comfortable. The procedure was brief and painless. Best periodontist in NYC
Max Hakim · July 1, 2024 I recently had a dental implant placed by Dr. Malakov, and I couldn’t be more thrilled with the results and the overall experience. From start to finish, the entire process was seamless, professional, and surprisingly pleasant.The procedure was virtually painless, thanks to Dr. Malakov’s expertise and gentle touch. I was amazed at how smoothly everything went. The post-operative care instructions were clear and easy to follow, which made the healing process quick and uncomplicated.
Kay Carter · June 7, 2024 The place was clean with friendly staff at the front desk. Scheduling my Lanap procedure was super easy without a long wait for an available date. Dr. Malakov took time explaining the procedure itself, what was to be expected and how I needed to care for the gums after the treatment. He was very professional and caring -making sure I was comfortable and pain free during the treatment. I am very happy that I decided for Lanap and not “cut and stitch “ method because the healing process took minimal time and there was no pain. Second day after the treatment I barely knew I had anything done and I was able to go about my business as usual. I highly recommend Dr. Malakov to anyone who is considering treatment for periodontal disease.
Jitka Bubenickova · May 30, 2024 Great experience!

thomas Z · April 28, 2024 Received laser periodontal treatment that saved my tooth from needing to be extracted. The treatment allowed for my bone regrowth. Dr. Malakov worked quickly and effectively while assuring patient comfort. Would definitely recommend :)
Ariana · April 22, 2024 Dr Malakov is honestly the best periodontist, he really cares about his patient and making sure their oral health and teeth improves, if it wasn’t for him my gums wouldn’t stop bleeding. I was very adamant about getting braces and yet there were deeper issues in my teeth such as huge bone loss. I was very nervous of going to dentist and every dentist I went to couldn’t give me any resolution. I honestly regret not going to a periodontist earlier and glad I took the innovative to come here. My molar teeth is experiencing huge bone loss but I am trying my best to also take care of it and hoping there is no further loss. I been going to this office for the past two years and did LANAP surgery which I highly reccomend and now I am getting root canal treatments with Dr. Pinkhasova who is extremely caring too. I highly reccomend coming here if you are experiencing teeth issues.
Shahnaj Pervin · April 18, 2024 Dr.Maleakov is very professional, nice, has a lot of patience and know what he is doing, I recommend him 100% if you need a periodontist, this doctor is the one to go!

Mu Wang · May 14, 2023 Dr. Malakov is fantastic. I had a tooth extracted before the pandemic and never got the implant. After waiting too long, I saw Dr. M and he gave me honest/no nonsense answers about the risks and benefits of getting an implant. I decided to go for it and am thrilled with the (long - but he warned me!) process. I have a really small mouth and jaw issues and Dr. Malakov was so fast and gentle. I cannot recommend him highly enough! Thank you!
Arin Hahn · May 10, 2023 Dr. David is always friendly and has the knowledge and skills. The doctor and staff really care about how you feel. Highly recommend!!

Lucila Eslao · March 23, 2023 I highly recommend Dr. Malakov to treat gum disease.I’m very satisfied with his professional work, and I consider him one of the best in the Tri State Area. His price was very affordable compared to other places that I went to.Dr Malakov was very caring to cure my gum problem I had for 20 years.
Josef Berisaj · March 12, 2023 I was referred to Dr Malakov by another Doctor, due to acute periodontal disease. It was so severe in fact, that I was in real danger of loosing the two bottom front teeth. Im very lucky that I was referred to Dr Malakov. He looked at my X-rays, checked the other teeth and found two more teeth that were affected by periodontal disease, that the other Doctor didn’t notice. Dr Malakov was very patient and extremely thorough. He explained to me all the steps of the surgery, talked about post surgery recovery, the Do’s and Don’t’s of healthy maintenance of my teeth after the procedure. During the surgery he was careful and professional keeping overall environment relaxed and stress free. Today I’m glad to report that I made a full recovery. Amazingly after the procedure my bone tissue around my teeth grew back. Thanks to the Dr Malakov I didn’t have to go through very upsetting experience of loosing multiple teeth. I highly recommend this Doctor to anyone with any type of periodontal disease.
Zhan Borukhov · February 13, 2023 Dr Malakov is an amazing periodontology. I had seen two periodontist before I came to see him and they didn’t have the experience and knowledge Dr Malakov has. I had very bad periodontal disease and Dr Malakov explain every treatment he was going to do. He explain about two treatment for periodontist disease one is the traditional gum procedure and the second one the LANAP after explaining bough procedure I choose to do the LANAP on my front teeth and upper tooth. Day off the procedure I was so nervous and his compassion relaxed me and told me that everything was going to be just fine. Two weeks after the procedure my teeth and gum looks and feel better than ever. I had no pain during the procedure or after. If u looking for a PERIODONTOLOGY don't look no more DR David Malakov is the specialist u need to see.
Paola Quintero · February 6, 2023 After years of neglect on my part I finally reached out to find a doctor because my gums were in very bad shape. After looking around my neighborhood and not being able to get in anywhere, I called Dr. Malakov’s office and they set me up with an appointment immediately just two days later. They scheduled me that day for the LANAP procedure and within a day I was feeling outstandingly better. The office is very convenient, steps always from the M/R train and Dr. Malakov’s care and demeanor is exceptional— frankly one of the best experiences I’ve ever had with a physician. Highly recommended!
Kevin Dragon · January 16, 2023 I was looking for a periodontist on google and this was the closest office that I found. The office was very clean and the staff was very polite and helpful. They gave me a breakdown of cost up front and when something additional came up during the surgery, Dr. Malakov just did the work at no extra charge to me, very thankful! Highly recommend.
Craig Salis · January 3, 2023 So my dentist had referred me to a periodontist and after doing my research on Google, this was one of the many places I had stopped by for a consultation - I ended up doing my procedure with Dr. Malakov.Pros:I came in very anxiously because I am so young and do not want to lose my teeth at this age. Dr. Malakov was a great communicator. He speaks to you. He calms you down. In the other offices I went to, I found the doctors to always be rushing and speaking in a different language. But this doctor was very clear and actually took the time to answer my questions.Second, you can tell he actually cares and invests into his profession because he had a laser that no other office had and was able to offer me a decent price for the treatment. I did my research about the LANAP procedure (he even had his own video), and the literature showed it was beneficial, so I came back and did it. Thankfully, it was painless and the post-operative care was not as bad as a full surgery would have been.My only comment is that the procedure did take a while (about 2.5 hours), but good things come to those that are patient, and so far I am very happy with the results. Dr. Malakov has restored my health and bought me some more time with my teeth. Thank you and Gd bless you!
Daniel Badals · December 27, 2022 Dr.Malakov is truly the best at what he does. He's very patient ,careful, explains and answer to all the question you have.Very excellent service in general. Truly recommend for anyone that needs work done.

Ted Gusek · September 3, 2022 Dr. MALAKOV was a pleasure to have him by my Dr. My overall experience from front desk, techs and of course the Dr. was exceptional.
Monica Remy · August 29, 2022 Was told by another office that I needed a bunch of surgery due to periodontal disease. So I decided to go to Dr Malakov for a second opinion and man am I glad I did. He did a full exam and evaluated me and my radiographs and he told me that I didn’t need any surgery and everything could be maintained and monitored. Very glad I found this doctor. Straight arrow. Definitely recommend
Ivana Schneider · August 12, 2022 I was originally referred by my general dentist for a specific problem and Dr Malakov corrected it. It has now been over a year without a problem. I return every 4 months for cleanings. Highly recommend!
Samantha Garcia · July 24, 2022 What I love most about this office and the doctor is that whenever I had a question before or after the procedure I was able to reach the doctor to have him answer my concerns. You don’t get that everywhere now... very satisfied! Thank you guys
thomas bisceglie · June 24, 2022 Had lanap gum surgery done at this office and I am very pleased! My gums aren’t bleeding anymore. Before they would bleed even when I would just brush my teeth but now no bleeding when I brush or floss. Dr David explained everything very well and I only had some mild discomfort for 1 day and was fine after. You did a great job doc! Thank you
R P · June 17, 2022 I had an incredible experience with Dr. Malakov. He was not only knowledgeable but also very kind, listened to my concerns, was thorough, and had an excellent bedside manner. The front desk staff was also great!
Rachel Estevez · June 13, 2022 First class care and service. This should be the standard for all Dental offices. My dentist referred me to Dr. Malakov for a Periodontal evaluation, and dr David’s attention to detail was great. He explained everything to me in simple English and really broke everything down for me. Much appreciated!
Valerie Iovino · May 25, 2022 Best periodontist ! answered all my questions and didnt charge me for extra xrays. I received laser gum treatment with dr Malakov and barely had any discomfort. definitely see a big difference in my gums now compared to before, Thanks alot Doc!
Paul Jacobs · April 16, 2022 Dr. Malakov is great. I highly recommend going to see him. Very thorough and makes me feel he truly cares that I’m getting what is needed to be taken care of. He is the best!
Sophia marrapodi-bove · April 12, 2022 I had such a pleasant experience. There was very little waiting time. Dr. Malakov and staff were so kind and lovely. Will definitely recommend to everyone!
Leydi Barros · October 27, 2021 Easily the most comfortable environment and friendly dentist you could ask for, and he knows what he’s doing
Anthony Chikva · October 14, 2021 Wish Dr Malakov was my dentist when I was a child, I probably wouldn’t have the gum issues I have now, great person and doctor!
Douglas Soares · September 25, 2021 Was told to find a periodontist and thankfully came across Dr Malakov. He was so professional and understanding. Didn’t judge me and treated me well. I barely had any discomfort after the work was done. Will refer my family and friends here!!
Arthur Davydov · September 23, 2021 Dr Malakov’s office was recommended to me by a friend and the entire staff is amazing, everyone is very knowledgable and professional and the doctor is very kind and spends as much time as needed with you. Highly recommend!!
Steven Katz · February 2, 2021 I would like to express my sincere gratitude for the excellent care and treatment I received. After consulting with other specialists who told me that some of my teeth would need to be extracted, I found an alternative here that truly changed my situation. From the initial evaluation, the doctor was extremely careful, thorough, and professional. He examined and diagnosed each tooth individually, clearly explaining the condition of each one, the available treatment options, and what I could expect throughout the entire process. His dedication and clear explanations gave me a great deal of confidence. He ultimately performed the LANAP laser treatment, and the results have been incredible. Thanks to his experience, expertise, and dedication, he was able to save my teeth when I had previously been told that extraction was practically the only option. Throughout the entire treatment, he was very careful, patient, and committed to achieving the best possible outcome. I am deeply grateful for his work and would definitely recommend him to anyone dealing with periodontal problems, especially before making such an important decision as having teeth extracted. An excellent professional and an excellent experience.
marianela cardenas · September 2, 2026 Dr. David Malakov is an amazing professional. After doing careful research, I learned about LANAP surgery, what it entailed, and that Dr. David Malakov was able to perform it. From the very beginning, he was welcoming, professional, and answered all of my questions without hesitation. Everything was explained to me in detail, including what would happen on the day of the surgery and what I needed to do afterward. I felt confident that I was in good hands. After carefully following the post-surgery instructions, I noticed a significant improvement. My gums shrunk and they no longer bleed. It was truly one of the best decisions I could have made for myself. I would also like to mention that the receptionists at the front desk are incredibly kind, friendly, and welcoming. Overall, this was a 10/10 experience. If you’re reading this because you’re hesitant about getting LANAP surgery, take this as your sign, you’re in good hands!
Kayleen · August 13, 2026 This periodontist save my life. I had bleeding gums and almost lost Most of my teeth. Now my mouth smells great! I got my confidence back! Thanks you Dr David Malakov!
Shazeeda Hamid · June 25, 2026 This guy does such an amazing job, I’ve never been to a better dentist.
Adrian Cruzado · June 18, 2026 Got some work done last year...Dr. Malakov was very knowledgeable and broke everything down. The procedure was like any other normal dental work...after the anesthesia you dont really feel any pain what so ever I recommend anyone looking for a Periodontist.
GLB_WavyMcGrady_ · June 14, 2026 Dr. Malakov is an excellent dentist, very knowledgeable and approachable. I had several issues with my teeth, including an extraction, a sinus lift and 2 implants. He made the process painless and took great care to streamline the procedures in order to minimize any discomfort or stress. He explained everything very clearly and made sure that I understood. I highly recommend him and his great team.
Barbara Gulotta · May 29, 2026 Dr. Malakov was incredibly helpful, professional, and kind. I was in so much pain and he saw me the same day I called. He was very attentive with my evaluation and took the time to clearly explain everything to me. I felt heard, cared for, and much more at ease after seeing him. I’m very grateful for his help and would highly recommend Dr. Malakov to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and trustworthy dentist. 🦷🙏✨
Dasha Cherkasova · May 27, 2026 Excellent service, honest assessment of oral needs, and caring execution. I am thrilled with my results, and with Dr. Malakov and the entire team. Front desk to dental chair!
James Thorbs · May 21, 2026 Very caring doctor and explains everything, much appreciated
Levon Suleymanov · May 9, 2026 Could not be happier with Dr. Malakov and his team. I had been stressed out for nearly a year with gum issues around my front crowns and during that period I saw two other periodontists who both recommended crown lengthening, but I kept waiting to see if the gum would improve on its own. Crown lengthening surgery is a big deal and I wasn't convinced I truly needed it. Plus my insurance wouldn't cover it. I found Dr. Malakov (who is not in-network for me) through his google reviews and I'm SO glad I did. He recommended LANAP instead of crown lengthening and it was absolutely the right call. The other periodontists and my own dentist never mentioned laser as an option. I didn't even know it existed as an option. Immediately after the surgery my gum already looked better and now, 1.5 month later, it is back to normal. Can't thank Dr. Malakov enough. His rates are very reasonable. I felt I was looked after by someone observant, intelligent, capable, thorough and caring. Also shoutout to his amazing receptionist who is the most friendly and professional medical receptionist I've ever come across. The office is organized, efficient and transparent. I am writing this review on my own, no incentives were offered. Highly recommend Dr. Malakov's office!
AZ · April 28, 2026 I had the pleasure of being treated by Dr. David M. for a LANAP laser procedure. The outcome has been excellent—my teeth feel significantly stronger and healthier. I truly appreciate the professionalism and expertise demonstrated throughout the process.
kateryna z · April 28, 2026 I went to dr david malakov best decision I have ever made. my tooth were so loose and I was so stressed out about it seeing this doctor saved my life he did the laser gum treatment and I had no pain. Teeth getting stronger and I'm feeling so much better anyone looking for the best doctor in this area should go see dr david one of the best believe me
Seema Hernandez · March 28, 2026 Dr. David performed the LANAP surgery on me and the results 6 months later were amazing! My mouth feels better than ever, and I didn’t have any recovery pain whatsoever.
Satrohan Lall · March 12, 2026 Dr. Malakov is the absolute best! Both before and after my gum graft surgery he was extremely caring and guided me through every step of the process! I wouldn't recommend anyone but him!
Bryson B · March 2, 2026 I have struggled with periodontal disease since my 20th, I’m 45 now. After losing 4 teeth, paying a lot of money for antibiotics to be applied to my gum( which was like using a bandage on a wound that needs stitches) my old dentist didn’t care since he was getting a lot of money from me at every visit. One day I decided to say good bye to my dentist and to my gum problem. That’s when I came across the You tube page for doctor Malakov. From my first visit I felt that I finally found the right person to put an end to my standing gum disease. Yesterday 2/24/26 I had the LANAP gum surgery and I can assure you that it was a painless procedure. All my life I had so much fear of the regular surgery where my gums had to be cut and then stitched back. Today is day two and I am free of pain or discomfort, my mouth is just a bit sore which is normal. Dr Malakov is very skilled and gentle, he is truly concerned about your mouth health and not just the money. He is very transparent and explains everything so clearly. Thank you so much to the doctor and the staff, you are all incredible. I used to be terrified, but you made me feel so comfortable.
Yenny G · February 26, 2026 Dr. Malokoff understood the assignment and delivered — five stars. His professionalism, knowledge, and genuine care immediately stood out. I had seen several other dentists and never felt the same level of comfort or empathy. With him, it was about my dental health, not the money, which meant a lot — especially with how expensive healthcare can be today. After my LANAP procedure, I’m about 90% better, with almost no sensitivity and much healthier teeth and gums. Everything is better. Highly recommend!
Dee C (Dee) · February 22, 2026 Despues de mi dentista decirme que tenia que remover los 4 dientes frontales de la parte baja busque mas sobre el tema fui con el periodontista y el cambio fue magico. Muy buen servicio de el personal y muy profecional al hacer el trabajo. Muy poco dolor durante el proceso. Los recomiendo al 100%. Tambien debo añadir que pude salvar mis dientes (no lo tube que remover.)…
Rene Collado · February 5, 2026 If you are in need of periodontal care, I HIGHLY recommend Dr. David Malakov! He checks all the boxes to allay any fears you may have concerning the LANAP procedure. He's professional, honest, careful and gentle during the entire procedure, and if you need to speak with him anytime after the procedure, his response is timely! I am two weeks post procedure...I only experienced minimal pain later in the day after the procedure, and I have not experienced any pain to date. The out-of-pocket cost is well worth it!Make sure you follow the post procedure instructions, and you will be satisfied with the results! I wanted to also give a huge thanks to his wonderful staff who are the first you see, and their warm presence makes a huge difference!
P Jones · December 27, 2025 Had a great experience. My gums don’t hurt anymore. Highly recommend. Easy to talk to doc
Salomon Markovich · September 4, 2025 Was referred by my dentist to treat Periodontitis and underwent LANAP with Dr. Malakov. Can't recommend enough! Incredibly friendly, knowledgeable and patient. Would come back again but I hope I take care of myself enough that I don't have to 😬
Tahseen Rahman · July 22, 2025 Really great experience with Dr.Malakov! Everyone was super friendly and made me feel comfortable right away. The dentist was gentle, explained things clearly, and didn’t rush through the appointment. Best part? The pricing was super reasonable—no surprise charges or pressure to do extra stuff. Definitely recommend if you’re looking for great care without breaking the bank! I will be coming back for all my periodontal work! Thank you for a great experience.
Olga Hoff · July 15, 2025 My fiancé was referred to multiple periodontists before we were fortunate enough to find Dr. Malakov. From our very first visit, Dr. Malakov has been a true godsend. He was extremely attentive, thoroughly explained the condition, and took the time to follow up with us personally between appointments. He recommended the LANAP procedure, and after completing two rounds, my fiancé is very pleased with the results. We are grateful for Dr. Malakov’s care and professionalism throughout the entire process.
Lilan Kite · June 26, 2025 Dr. Molakov and his staff are the most amazing and care team I’ve ever had the pleasure of dealing with. I unfortunately had to do the Lanap procedure which isn’t cheap. The doc and his staff found a way to work with me. I truly believe that he and his team are the best at what they do. I am truly thankful. If you have periodontal disease and need a knowledgeable hero and team who is kind/helpful. Head to queens no matter how far you are. It truly worth it. Highly recommend
brandon williams · June 26, 2025 The Staff was professional and Periodontist was exceptional. The place was clean and smelled like heaven
Franklyn Greenaway · June 5, 2025 In November 2024 I went to Dr. Malakov with severely inflamed gums and deep bone loss next to two lower molars. He performed his surgical laser treatment on the affected areas. Six months after the procedure and with careful maintenance, not only was the inflammation eliminated and the bone loss stopped, but some of the lost bone has actually *regenerated*. Thanks so much to Dr. Malakov for his incredible work!
Michael Forgione · June 4, 2025 The thought of losing my teeth makes me feel depressed. I consider meeting Dr. David Malakov a blessing. He's an excellent and meticulous periodontist. His expertise in the LANAP surgery is unparalleled. He saved my teeth and now my gums feel brand new. His professionalism and wonderful bedside manner stems from his genuine care of his patients. He explains the procedure thoroughly and patiently answers all your questions, never in a rush. He would even give you pointers on what procedures that will simply be a waste and you will not benefit from. Thank you, Dr. David Malakov.
Daisy Torres · May 25, 2025 Dr. David Malakov is an incredible doctor who is caring for my best friend of 30 years. Although I am not his patient, if I needed a periodontist, Dr. Malakov would be at the TOP of my list. Years ago, I worked in medical education and was a dental residency program administrator. Watching Dr. Malakov, any program director would be proud! It is CLEAR he has had EXCELLENT training. Not only is he knowledgeable and excellent at his job, but he also has the best bedside manners I have ever seen on a doctor. He is invested, attentive, kind, and sincerely cares about his patients. If you need an outstanding periodontist who cares about the work that needs to be done and the overall well-being of your health, make the call!
NR · April 25, 2025 Great Dr. made me quit smoking after surgery. Highly recommend
fred waldman · April 22, 2025 Great Periodontist, he is really good to communicate patient the situation and the following instructions, good and professional staff. Highest recommended 👌
Denny rivera · March 27, 2025 Excellent doctor great ethics
Dey · January 28, 2025 Dr David is a blessing in disguise. For 5 years I was going to my regular dentist they were charging me additional money for antibiotics for my gums after they do a cleaning. Not addressing the disorder of my gums that needed attention until a new person came aboard and recommended me to Dr David periodontist. My root canal was even worse It never bonded to the bone and it would bleed and move. I finally went to see Dr David he diagnosed the problem, I had to have gum surgery a new procedure laser I can tell you all my teeth are strong. Great work!! To keep my teeth is important to me not root canal, dentures but my own teeth. I would highly recommend this parodontist. I've always looked for an attentive dentist not just money-driven but all the older guys have gone so I'm blessed to find Dr David. My insurance didn't cover everything I paid upfront and he was great enough to refund the difference to me from the insurance. Today I even asked him to do the bottom gum front but he said no, not to waste your money That's what you want to hear from a great upcoming periodontist.
James Bond · January 9, 2025 What a great and honest Doc! I love meeting honest, transparent, and best of all ethical people. I came in expecting a big sales pitch on getting an implant and after examining me he determined that I didn’t necessarily need one and that it actually might not be the best move in the long term. This totally won my admiration and loyalty. Highly recommend!
Mark Cisneros · December 22, 2024 Dr. Malakov is an exceptional periodontist whose expertise and meticulous work with the LANAP laser treatment are unparalleled. He is very professional and he takes the time to explain everything and put you at ease from the first visit. I am very happy with my decision to have Dr. Malakov perform the LANAP surgery and equally happy with my results. It has truly been a great experience, and I dare say better than I expected. If you're seeking a highly skilled specialist who genuinely cares for his patients and strives to achieve the best possible outcomes, you need to visit Dr. Malakov!
Voula Argiriou · December 4, 2024 Dr. Malakov is an exceptional periodontist. His knowledge and meticulous work with the Lanap laser treatment is unmatched. His professional bedside manner and warm demeanor put me at ease after the first consultation and I couldn’t be happier with my results. Truly life changing experience, if you are looking for a highly skilled specialist, look no further. He genuinely cares for his patients so they get the best outcome possible!
Elle Temis · October 31, 2024 Very satisfied and what’s great is Dr Malakov is very easy to be reached and any time I had a question Dr Malakov would call me the same day to answer it. Hard to find that kind of service nowadays! Thank you!
Daniela Buttafarro · October 6, 2024 I had not been to a dentist in over 30 years due to extreme dental phobia and a horrible gag reflex. I went to a local dentist who said I needed to see a periodontist. I was extremely nervous the day of my consultation, but Dr. Malakov immediately put me at ease. I had my lanap procedure 2 weeks ago. Dr. Malakov was extremely kind and patient, even stopping to put my earbuds back in when they fell out. The procedure did not take as long as I had feared. I had minimal discomfort off and on for a few days after the procedure, really minimal. I had several questions in the days following the procedure. Dr. Malakov himself returned calls within minutes. I am so pleased and thankful for Dr. Malakov.
hnc52 · September 27, 2024 Dr. David Malakov is the best periodontist in town. His dental office has very nice staffs to assist you and make you comfortable. I highly recommend him 👍👍👍.

Marilyn Fletcher · September 12, 2024 Dr. Malakov is the best periodontist in NYC! I visited 5 clinics, but none could help me solve my gum problems. Dr. David Malakov was very professional and kind! He explained in detail how the gum surgery would proceed and he was always available to answer any questions. I am happy with the results, and I feel much better. I highly recommend visiting Dr. David Malakov's clinic!
Adelya Nazyrova · September 7, 2024 Dr Malakov is an excellent periodontist, I had a Lanap treatment done,a few months ago , he was so gentle and he explained everything thoroughly,hopefully my gum will get better-now, my experience with the Dr and his staff was great, would highly recommend him Thank you .
Waseefa Hariprashad · August 27, 2024 A Stellar experience, professional, caring and extremely informative. Dr. Malakov was very thorough and thoughtful, I highly recommend his services.
Jon Atoms · August 22, 2024 If i were allowed to give Dr. Malakov ten stars, i would. I had a PAINFUL toothache and I am deathly afraid of dentist. Dr Malakov saw me right away, saved my tooth. Best part was i had my headphones on during the laser procedure and there was ZERO pain. He was done in a song and a half :). The staff is amazing, Dr. Malakov is a kind and gentle Doctor. THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!
L SANTANA · August 2, 2024 Thankfully had a great experience, went to Dr David for a second opinion and glad I did. Would highly recommend! Great bedside manner
Nathan Asher · July 24, 2024 Dr. Malakov saved my wisdom tooth with periodontal laser therapy. He was the first and only doctor to make an effort to save my tooth instead of hastily suggesting to remove it. He was very patient and knowledgeable and walked me through the whole process to make sure I was comfortable. The procedure was brief and painless. Best periodontist in NYC
Max Hakim · July 1, 2024 I recently had a dental implant placed by Dr. Malakov, and I couldn’t be more thrilled with the results and the overall experience. From start to finish, the entire process was seamless, professional, and surprisingly pleasant. The procedure was virtually painless, thanks to Dr. Malakov’s expertise and gentle touch. I was amazed at how smoothly everything went. The post-operative care instructions were clear and easy to follow, which made the healing process quick and uncomplicated.
Kay Carter · June 7, 2024 The place was clean with friendly staff at the front desk. Scheduling my Lanap procedure was super easy without a long wait for an available date. Dr. Malakov took time explaining the procedure itself, what was to be expected and how I needed to care for the gums after the treatment. He was very professional and caring -making sure I was comfortable and pain free during the treatment. I am very happy that I decided for Lanap and not “cut and stitch “ method because the healing process took minimal time and there was no pain. Second day after the treatment I barely knew I had anything done and I was able to go about my business as usual. I highly recommend Dr. Malakov to anyone who is considering treatment for periodontal disease.
Jitka Bubenickova · May 30, 2024 Great experience!
Nathan Borukhov · May 26, 2024 You can clearly tell that Dr. David love what he does. He's very passionate and explains everything really well. He spent time with me and didn't rush like other doctors I've went to in the past.
Edward Gavrilov · May 15, 2024 Dr. Malakov is a highly gifted periodontist. I am very satisfied with his work!

thomas Z · April 28, 2024 Received laser periodontal treatment that saved my tooth from needing to be extracted. The treatment allowed for my bone regrowth. Dr. Malakov worked quickly and effectively while assuring patient comfort. Would definitely recommend :)
Ariana · April 22, 2024 Dr Malakov is honestly the best periodontist, he really cares about his patient and making sure their oral health and teeth improves, if it wasn’t for him my gums wouldn’t stop bleeding. I was very adamant about getting braces and yet there were deeper issues in my teeth such as huge bone loss. I was very nervous of going to dentist and every dentist I went to couldn’t give me any resolution. I honestly regret not going to a periodontist earlier and glad I took the innovative to come here. My molar teeth is experiencing huge bone loss but I am trying my best to also take care of it and hoping there is no further loss. I been going to this office for the past two years and did LANAP surgery which I highly reccomend and now I am getting root canal treatments with Dr. Pinkhasova who is extremely caring too. I highly reccomend coming here if you are experiencing teeth issues.
Shahnaj Pervin · April 18, 2024 Dr.Maleakov is very professional, nice, has a lot of patience and know what he is doing, I recommend him 100% if you need a periodontist, this doctor is the one to go!

Mu Wang · May 14, 2023 Dr. Malakov is fantastic. I had a tooth extracted before the pandemic and never got the implant. After waiting too long, I saw Dr. M and he gave me honest/no nonsense answers about the risks and benefits of getting an implant. I decided to go for it and am thrilled with the (long - but he warned me!) process. I have a really small mouth and jaw issues and Dr. Malakov was so fast and gentle. I cannot recommend him highly enough! Thank you!
Arin Hahn · May 10, 2023 Dr. David is always friendly and has the knowledge and skills. The doctor and staff really care about how you feel. Highly recommend!!

Lucila Eslao · March 23, 2023 I highly recommend Dr. Malakov to treat gum disease. I’m very satisfied with his professional work, and I consider him one of the best in the Tri State Area. His price was very affordable compared to other places that I went to. Dr Malakov was very caring to cure my gum problem I had for 20 years.
Josef Berisaj · March 12, 2023 I was referred to Dr Malakov by another Doctor, due to acute periodontal disease. It was so severe in fact, that I was in real danger of loosing the two bottom front teeth. Im very lucky that I was referred to Dr Malakov. He looked at my X-rays, checked the other teeth and found two more teeth that were affected by periodontal disease, that the other Doctor didn’t notice. Dr Malakov was very patient and extremely thorough. He explained to me all the steps of the surgery, talked about post surgery recovery, the Do’s and Don’t’s of healthy maintenance of my teeth after the procedure. During the surgery he was careful and professional keeping overall environment relaxed and stress free. Today I’m glad to report that I made a full recovery. Amazingly after the procedure my bone tissue around my teeth grew back. Thanks to the Dr Malakov I didn’t have to go through very upsetting experience of loosing multiple teeth. I highly recommend this Doctor to anyone with any type of periodontal disease.
Zhan Borukhov · February 13, 2023 Dr Malakov is an amazing periodontology. I had seen two periodontist before I came to see him and they didn’t have the experience and knowledge Dr Malakov has. I had very bad periodontal disease and Dr Malakov explain every treatment he was going to do. He explain about two treatment for periodontist disease one is the traditional gum procedure and the second one the LANAP after explaining bough procedure I choose to do the LANAP on my front teeth and upper tooth. Day off the procedure I was so nervous and his compassion relaxed me and told me that everything was going to be just fine. Two weeks after the procedure my teeth and gum looks and feel better than ever. I had no pain during the procedure or after. If u looking for a PERIODONTOLOGY don't look no more DR David Malakov is the specialist u need to see.
Paola Quintero · February 6, 2023 After years of neglect on my part I finally reached out to find a doctor because my gums were in very bad shape. After looking around my neighborhood and not being able to get in anywhere, I called Dr. Malakov’s office and they set me up with an appointment immediately just two days later. They scheduled me that day for the LANAP procedure and within a day I was feeling outstandingly better. The office is very convenient, steps always from the M/R train and Dr. Malakov’s care and demeanor is exceptional— frankly one of the best experiences I’ve ever had with a physician. Highly recommended!
Kevin Dragon · January 16, 2023 I was looking for a periodontist on google and this was the closest office that I found. The office was very clean and the staff was very polite and helpful. They gave me a breakdown of cost up front and when something additional came up during the surgery, Dr. Malakov just did the work at no extra charge to me, very thankful! Highly recommend.
Craig Salis · January 3, 2023 So my dentist had referred me to a periodontist and after doing my research on Google, this was one of the many places I had stopped by for a consultation - I ended up doing my procedure with Dr. Malakov. Pros: I came in very anxiously because I am so young and do not want to lose my teeth at this age. Dr. Malakov was a great communicator. He speaks to you. He calms you down. In the other offices I went to, I found the doctors to always be rushing and speaking in a different language. But this doctor was very clear and actually took the time to answer my questions. Second, you can tell he actually cares and invests into his profession because he had a laser that no other office had and was able to offer me a decent price for the treatment. I did my research about the LANAP procedure (he even had his own video), and the literature showed it was beneficial, so I came back and did it. Thankfully, it was painless and the post-operative care was not as bad as a full surgery would have been. My only comment is that the procedure did take a while (about 2.5 hours), but good things come to those that are patient, and so far I am very happy with the results. Dr. Malakov has restored my health and bought me some more time with my teeth. Thank you and Gd bless you!

Monica Remy · August 29, 2022 Was told by another office that I needed a bunch of surgery due to periodontal disease. So I decided to go to Dr Malakov for a second opinion and man am I glad I did. He did a full exam and evaluated me and my radiographs and he told me that I didn’t need any surgery and everything could be maintained and monitored. Very glad I found this doctor. Straight arrow. Definitely recommend

Samantha Garcia · July 24, 2022 What I love most about this office and the doctor is that whenever I had a question before or after the procedure I was able to reach the doctor to have him answer my concerns. You don’t get that everywhere now... very satisfied! Thank you guys
thomas bisceglie · June 24, 2022 Had lanap gum surgery done at this office and I am very pleased! My gums aren’t bleeding anymore.
