About TetraHealth Dentistry
TetraHealth Dentistry is a biological and periodontal dental practice located at 860 Fifth Avenue on the Upper East Side of Manhattan, New York. The office applies holistic dentistry principles alongside specialized periodontal care, serving patients from across New York City and beyond, including patients who travel in from Connecticut and other parts of the metropolitan area.
The practice offers two primary service areas. Holistic dentistry focuses on biocompatible materials, minimally invasive protocols, and a whole-body approach to oral health, considering how dental conditions relate to overall systemic wellness. Periodontal care addresses the health of the gums, ligaments, and bone structures that support the teeth—conditions ranging from early-stage gingivitis to more advanced periodontitis requiring targeted intervention.
New patient visits at TetraHealth are comprehensive. Patients describe an intake process that can include a detailed clinical examination, 3D cone beam imaging, a full oral health assessment, professional cleaning, and laser treatment, all within a single coordinated appointment. This diagnostic approach allows the team to develop a thorough picture of both dental and periodontal health before proposing treatment.
Dr. Alex Volchonok, a periodontist, leads clinical care at this practice. Patients appreciate that the office takes time to explain findings and presents multiple treatment approaches where applicable, giving patients the information needed to make informed decisions. The office environment on Fifth Avenue has been described as thoughtfully designed and calming in atmosphere.
TetraHealth Dentistry accepts insurance. New patients and those transferring care are welcome to schedule an initial consultation. The Fifth Avenue location on the Upper East Side is accessible by the 4, 5, and 6 subway lines, making it convenient from Midtown, the Upper East Side, and outer boroughs including Brooklyn, Queens, and the Bronx.
For patients living or working on the Upper East Side near the Lexington Avenue corridor, this practice represents a local option for specialized periodontal and biological dental care that can be difficult to find in a single office setting. Patients coming from the Connecticut shoreline and other commuter communities have found the Fifth Avenue address workable for appointments that do not need to be fit into a standard weekday routine.

I have always had a severe phobia of dentists—specifically the sound of drilling and the sight of needles—which kept me away from dental offices for a long time. However, when I developed acute pain, a trusted friend (who is a doctor themselves and a patient here) highly recommended TETRAHEALTH DENTISTRY, emphasizing their biological approach to care. I am so grateful I took their advice. From the moment I walked into the 5th Avenue office, the warm, friendly atmosphere and polite staff immediately put me at ease. The technology here is incredibly advanced. After a thorough initial consultation where the doctor listened to all my concerns, they used cutting-edge diagnostic scans to create a crystal-clear, comprehensive treatment plan. The actual treatment process was a total revelation. I felt absolutely no pain and didn't even notice any needles, which had always been my biggest stop-factor. Dr. Rowan Pereira was exceptionally professional, welcoming, and engaging, building a deep sense of complete trust that was entirely justified. The dental assistants were also wonderful, doing everything possible to ensure my comfort. I 100% recommend TETRAHEALTH DENTISTRY to anyone who values the highest level of quality, innovative technology, and a gentle, health-conscious approach!
great professional service and treatment
Very pleasant atmosphere and high professional treatment.
Great dentist!!
I had extensive dental surgery and I'm extremely pleased with the care and attention I received from Dr. Volchonok and his staff. They were professional, courteous and exceptionally supportive, understanding that I was concerned and quite anxious. They answered all my questions and at no point did I feel rushed. I appreciate their kindness and respect and send a huge THANK YOU to Dr. Volchonok and his staff.
This practice was everything I was looking for in a holistic and biologic dentist! I was told a week ago that I needed a root canal on a back molar. I shopped around and this was the only practice I found that was somewhat near me that did PRF, laser, and ozone therapy with their extractions. The red light treatment post-op was so relaxing. The staff are so nice and caring. Dr Alex Volchonok explained everything very clearly to me about what needed to happen after looking at my CBCT scan, and no way would a root canal have solved this infection that went into my sinus cavity. I feel little to no pain 8hrs post-op. I'm coming back, and I would travel a lot further to come here if it was further away. I feel so lucky that the office is relatively near me, and the 5th ave location makes for a wonderful walk through the park!

I cannot thank Dr. Michele Volchonok enough for her exceptional care. When I experienced a sudden dental emergency, she graciously fit me in last minute and performed a challenging filling on a tooth that was causing me a lot of discomfort. Not only did she ensure that the filling was strong, functional, and durable, but she also took extra care to make sure it looked and felt natural and aesthetically pleasing. Her attention to detail and dedication truly went above and beyond my expectations, giving me confidence that my smile is in excellent hands. The entire team was wonderful. Lulu, the dental assistant, made me feel so welcomed and comfortable from start to finish — her warm and caring manner really eased my nerves. Ylenis, the dental hygienist, was truly fantastic at placing the local anesthesia, demonstrating such a gentle and reassuring touch, which made a usually scary experience much calmer for me. In addition to addressing my immediate concerns, Dr. Michele took the time to examine my other teeth and shared practical, non-invasive tips that I can easily incorporate into my daily routine to help maintain good oral health. Her compassionate, professional approach made my visit a very positive experience. If you're looking for a dentist who truly cares, offers exceptional skill, and makes you feel comfortable every step of the way, look no further. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Michele and the entire team at Tetra Health Dentistry to anyone seeking top-tier dental care. My experience here has been nothing short of outstanding, and I’ll definitely be returning for all my dental needs. Thank you so much! 🙏♥️🦷
I am so incredibly grateful that I found Dr. Alex Volchonok and his entire practice. Switching to biologic dentistry has been one of the best decisions I’ve made for my overall health! From the moment you walk in, you feel the difference. The entire team, including Dr. Michelle and my amazing hygienist Ylenis,, are not only knowledgeable but truly care about you as a whole person, not just your teeth.☺️ I love their philosophy. They understand that so much of our health begins in the mouth, and they empower you with the tools, education, and support to take control of your wellbeing. I’ve changed so many daily habits since becoming a patient here, and I genuinely feel the impact. And something I never thought I’d say… I actually look forward to going to the dentist now.😆 If you’ve ever been curious about biologic dentistry or want a more holistic, thoughtful approach to your health, this is the place. I cannot recommend Dr. Alex and his entire team enough.
The best dentist offices I have ever been to. Very knowledgeable and very professional. They are also very kind, reassuring and respectful. Totally trust them. They are not inexpensive but worth it.
My dental surgery went extremely smooth at Tetrahealth Dentistry in NYC. The entire team was so helpful and kept me calm and comfortable. Dr. Alex Volchonok is an amazing periodontist and can handle any dental issue with ease. I’m so thankful to have found a biological dental surgeon in my area of Connecticut.
