About Willoughby Dental

Willoughby Dental is a dental practice on Lawrence Street in Brooklyn, New York. Gum disease treatment ranges from a deeper professional cleaning for early inflammation through to more involved periodontal care once bone around the teeth has started to be affected. Bleeding gums are usually the earliest sign, and the early stage is reversible with proper cleaning and better daily plaque control.

Comprehensive care generally means a practice can handle most of a patient's dental needs in-house — preventive, restorative, and often minor cosmetic or surgical treatment — reducing how often patients are referred elsewhere for routine work.

A filling repairs a tooth after decay has been cleaned out, most often using tooth-coloured composite resin that is shaped and bonded to blend with the surrounding tooth. It is usually completed in a single appointment and is one of the most routine restorative procedures in dentistry.

Tooth Decay Treatment is also among the treatments offered here, and the practice can explain what it involves and whether it fits your situation at a consultation.

General dentistry covers the routine and restorative care most people need most often — examinations, cleanings, fillings, and preventive checks that catch problems while they are still small and inexpensive to treat. Regular attendance, roughly every six months for most patients, is what makes that early-catch approach actually work.

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.

Where is Willoughby Dental located in Brooklyn?
Willoughby Dental is on Lawrence Street in Brooklyn, New York (11201).
What days is Willoughby Dental open?

What services does Willoughby Dental offer?
Listed services at Willoughby Dental include Gum Disease Treatment, Comprehensive Dental Care, Dental Fillings, Tooth Decay Treatment and General Dentistry. The full list is shown on this page.
What are the early signs of gum disease?
Gums that bleed when brushing or flossing, redness and puffiness along the gumline, and persistent bad breath are the usual first indicators. Bleeding is the one most often dismissed, and it is the clearest early warning.
Is gum disease reversible?
The early stage, gingivitis, is reversible with thorough cleaning and better daily plaque control. Once it has progressed to periodontitis and bone around the teeth has been lost, that bone does not grow back — treatment then aims to halt further loss.
What does comprehensive dental care actually include?
It generally means the practice can handle most of what a patient needs under one roof — preventive checkups, restorative work like fillings and crowns, and often cosmetic and minor surgical treatment — rather than referring out for routine needs.

I don’t recommend this place. I was charged $225 for an exam and X-rays, only to be told afterward that the dentist couldn’t remove my tooth. Before my visit, he had told me over the phone that he could perform the extraction, and the clinic’s website also said tooth extractions were available. The staff were dismissive and unprofessional. The woman at the front desk spoke to me rudely, and the person who was supposed to see me treated me as if I were a joke.

On 8/20/26 I went online to zodoc looking for a dentist in Brooklyn that uses delta dental insurance. I found this office about 7 minutes from boro hall walking. I scanned my ID and made my appointment. About 2 hours later I was called by a receptionist who was pleasant but informed me this office did not have patience with 32bj delta dental plan. And I would have to pay out of pocket upfront and wait to see what my insurance will pay them? My understanding is this office is in network for delta dental but not for 32bj delta dental?. At the end of the call I asked the receptionist if she could cancel my appointment and she stated she could not. The receptionist did advise me to call a number on the back of my delta dental card to use 32bj delta dental.

This was my second visit to Dr. Trachtenberg. I got a whitening done today and it was an extremely successful and comfortable process. During both of my visits Dr. Trachtenberg was very detail oriented with the cleanings and Xrays. I personally like Dr. Trachtenberg, because I find him to be a warm and a patient individual. I highly recommend Dr. Trachtenberg for anyone looking for an excellent dentist.

I have been seeing this dentist for more than 22 yrs. The reason I kept seeing him. My experience, no pain, no infection, no broken tooth left in area, he's been very gentle, he listens. Actually I never had a bad experience. He has been my only dentist. I hope he stays around for a very long time ⌛️
