About Dentistry For Health NYC
Dentistry For Health NYC is a holistic dental practice in Suite 12 at 120 East 56th Street in the Midtown East neighborhood of Manhattan. Led by Dr. Winick, the practice integrates a holistic and biocompatible philosophy into all aspects of dental care, connecting oral health to systemic wellbeing in a way that distinguishes it from conventional general dentistry practices.
Routine preventive care at the practice includes thorough professional dental cleanings, comprehensive oral examinations, and dental X-rays. Hygienist Nancy performs detailed periodontal and gum health evaluations as part of each cleaning visit, with particular attention to gum tissue health and early indicators of systemic inflammation. Patients who care deeply about the health connection between their mouth and the rest of their body find this approach more aligned with their values than standard cleanings at conventional offices.
The holistic dentistry model at this practice includes assessment of the oral microbiome as part of the overall evaluation. Dr. Winick explains the relationship between oral bacteria, gum inflammation, and systemic health in terms patients can understand, providing specific guidance on dietary habits, oral hygiene technique, and supplemental care products where appropriate.
Biocompatible materials and conservative, minimally invasive techniques are the standard here. For patients concerned about mercury amalgam, BPA-containing composites, or other materials used in conventional dental offices, this practice actively selects safer alternatives. Emergency dental situations have been handled promptly, with Dr. Winick making himself available quickly when acute issues arise outside of scheduled appointments.
Dr. Winick is noted for being unhurried during appointments, spending as much time as is needed with each patient and providing thorough answers to clinical questions. The practice has maintained a consistent team including his assistant Masha, which contributes to a stable, familiar experience for returning patients.
East 56th Street between Park and Lexington Avenues in Midtown East is served by the 4/5/6 trains at 59th Street — Lexington Avenue and the E/M at Lexington Avenue — 53rd Street. The building is accessible to patients from Midtown, the Upper East Side, and across New York City.

Nancy is the ultimate hygienist! She’s always thorough and explains everything and my teeth and gums feel like new every time.
I had a great experience at my consultation with the endodontist, Dr. Etess. He was professional and I felt heard and seen by him. He is very knowledgeable and skilled.
I've been with Nancy Liebov for many years now. She is a superb hygienist. She cares so much about each and every one of her patients.
First day coming here. My wife and son have been going already. It was very thorough and the connection to overall health and how much that could be wrong in your mouth can have ann impact on other parts of your body.
The office is as beautiful as it is comfortable… from the waiting area to the dental chair. The staff is friendly, kind & professional. Dr.Etes is an expert practitioner par exellance. He completed a serious surgical procedure swiftly & painlessly. My follow up appointment was equally as impressive. I was impressed at how simple it turned out to be. I did feel some fleeting discomfort as sutures were being removed but it was great not having had my mouth numbed up for a few hours & feeling the sting of a needle. I followed his suggestions re.the supplements & tips after the surgery & was pleased to hear how well I had healed!
Had a dental emergency and was able to get in right away. Dr. Reid was great. He immediately fixed the issue, and I’m now pain-free. Friendly and helpful staff, clean office. Hassle-free. Highly recommended!

I go to Dentistry for Health regularly for dental cleanings and dental work. They are fabulous! They check everything carefully and thoroughly, make excellent recommendations for ongoing care.

They are holistic in their orientation so you know you're being taken care of with the highest quality service, products, and procedures.
Extraordinary experience. I was greeted warmly. Dr. Winick is pervasively gracious. He is always information-rich and accessible. His touch exquisitely gentle, his work, so thorough. I used to dread going to the dentist; now it is a singular highlight of my holistic healthcare world. Many thanks to Dr. Winick, Masha, his very kind and competent assistant, and the entire Dentisty for Health team. I’m totally satisfied!
Name: Daisy Curbeon ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I had a wonderful experience at Dentistry for Health New York. Nancy is exceptional at what she does. She is thorough, gentle, and truly understands the importance of gum and oral health. She took the time to clean my gums and teeth properly and explained things in a way that made me feel informed and cared for. Many people don’t realize how closely oral health is connected to overall health, and Nancy clearly takes this seriously. Her attention to detail and professionalism really stand out. The office was welcoming, calm, and well run, and the care felt thoughtful rather than rushed. I highly recommend Dentistry for Health New York, and especially Nancy, to anyone who values high-quality, health-focused dental care. — Daisy Curbeon
I have had ten years of superb dental care here. Dr. Winick has steadily updated his work and that of his excellent staff with cutting edge knowledge and practice. The team exudes lovely camaraderie and caring.
I can’t recommend Dr. Winick highly enough. This was by far the most thorough dental experience I’ve ever had and far beyond what a conventional dentist would provide. The visit was a full, thoughtful assessment of my oral health, including a deep dive into the oral microbiome. What really stood out was how clearly and patiently everything was explained. Dr. Winick walked me through not only what was going on, but why it mattered, and laid out possible next steps in a way that was easy to understand, without ever feeling rushed or pressured. On top of the clinical excellence, Dr. Winick brought a warmth and humor to the visit that instantly put me at ease. It’s rare to find a dentist who is both scientifically meticulous and genuinely kind and funny. I have certainly never laughed during a dental visit in the past! If you're looking for a dentist who combines cutting edge knowledge with compassionate care, this is the one.
