About Drs. Thomas, Lea, Penny & Melena Planzos @ Impressive Dental Care
Drs. Thomas, Lea, Penny & Melena Planzos @ Impressive Dental Care operates on 4th Avenue in Brooklyn, New York. TMJ treatment addresses pain, clicking, or restricted movement in the jaw joint, often linked to teeth grinding, clenching, injury, or stress. A custom night guard is the most common starting point, reducing strain on the joint and surrounding muscles.
Payment and insurance arrangements vary by practice and by treatment, so it is worth asking directly what is covered and what options exist for anything that is not, rather than assuming either way. Getting that clarified before treatment starts avoids surprises once it is underway.
Beyond any single treatment, most dental visits start with an examination — checking for decay, reviewing the gums, and looking at existing fillings or crowns — often alongside X-rays where there is a reason to look between or beneath teeth. That groundwork is what a dentist uses to explain any findings and set out next steps before you leave.
Routine attendance, roughly every six months for most people, is what actually keeps small problems small. A lot of decay and gum disease develops without any pain in its early stages, which is why regular checkups matter even when nothing seems to be wrong, rather than only booking an appointment once something hurts.
A first appointment at a new practice typically covers a full examination, a review of your dental and medical history, and a professional cleaning, with X-rays if you do not have recent ones. It is also a reasonable time to raise any longer-term concerns, cosmetic or otherwise, so they can be factored into a plan going forward.
Day-to-day oral health still comes down to the basics between visits — brushing twice daily with fluoride toothpaste, cleaning between the teeth, and limiting how often sugary food and drink appear through the day matters more than the total amount eaten at once. Regular professional care is what catches whatever those habits do not. Use this page to find contact information for Drs.

Drs. Thomas, Lea, Penny & Melena Planzos offer the best possible dental experience. They provide cutting edge techniques, maintain state of the art tools, and their professionalism is unmatched. They make it a pleasure to go to the dentist, so much so that I look forward to sitting in the chair.
What a wonderful experience walking into this family office! Staff was friendly, warm and welcoming. I met with Dr. Lea, periodontist, she was so nice and professional and made sure I understood everything that she was doing and our plan going forward.The office was “state of the art” I highly recommend this office!
I am very pleased with the care and professionalism. Thank you Dr Penny for bonding my broken front tooth. Great job♥️ I
I've been a patient for 22 years. Need I say more? Well, I will: You are in the best possible hands with the amazing Doctors Planzos! Besides being ace at what they do, they clearly love what they do -- and those two things together mean the world when it comes to choosing a dentist. Seriously.
This is a well run family dental practice. The staff and professional and punctual.
This office is phenomenal. From my first visit I immediately felt that I was in good hands. Carol gave me the best cleaning I’ve ever had and Dr. Thomas was thorough and reassuring during my exam. I also had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Penny who was wonderful and Dr. Lea who was extremely knowledgeable during my wisdom tooth consultation. I was nervous about having my wisdom tooth extracted but Dr. Lea made the entire experience so much easier. She was kind, patient, thorough and reassuring from start to finish. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. My daughter and I are also patients of Dr. Melena for orthodontics and she has been wonderful. She is patient, knowledgeable and genuinely caring. What stands out most about this office is the quality of care. I have never felt pressured or upsold. Every recommendation has felt thoughtful and appropriate and I always feel that my well-being comes first. I’ve never been someone who enjoys going to the dentist but this is the first office where I actually look forward to my appointments. Having such knowledgeable and caring doctors all under one roof makes such a difference. I’m truly grateful to have found this office and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional dental care—even if you’re just looking for a cleaning!
I am just so lucky to have found this great dental group. My first visit and I am so impressed. Professional, clean and compassionate. Perfect!
The entire staff is very knowledgeable, attentive, and professional. I have complete confidence in the dentists, hygienists, and assistants.
This a dental practice I have complete confidence in. Dr Lea, Dr Penny and Dr T. are extremely proficient, kind, and gentle. I can’t imagine getting great care like this anywhere else. PS my hygienists, especially Cara, and all the staff have been friendly and professional! PS today’s care was wonderful thanks to my dentist and hygienist!! Xo
If you search painless dentistry Dr Thomas Planzos’ name and picture should appear. The entire group are friendly and professional. They are all expert clinicians. Their equipment is state of the art. It’s obvious that they are willing to spare no expense to have the best tools while having the skills to use them.
I avoid the dentist at all costs. I’ve had some difficult experiences in my life, and at almost 60 years old, dental work is something I had been putting off for far too long. The moment I walked into Dr. Planzos’ office, I immediately felt at ease. The warmth, kindness, and genuine care from everyone there gave me the confidence to finally move forward with much-needed treatment. I actually flew all the way from California because I could not imagine going anywhere else. I spent a total of 14 hours in the chair fixing multiple issues, and the entire time I felt safe, cared for, and respected. That says everything. Dr. P., Dr. Penny, and Dr. Leah were all absolutely amazing. Their compassion, professionalism, and ability to make an anxious patient feel comfortable are truly special. Honestly, part of me wants to gatekeep this office because they are THAT good — but people deserve to know when they’ve found something exceptional. I cannot recommend them highly enough.
