He had to two lower teeth and three upper teeth. At that time I was without teeth for months. I needed a sinus lift and extensive packing of bone material. We had success with the two lower and one of the upper. I said try again. Well two years later, I can finally smile.

His staff was friendly and efficient. Dr. Mark's patient and expertise was phenomenal. A recommendation to Dr. Orenshein for the crowns was wonderful.

Dr. Mark performed the Pillar Procedure on me in July 2007. It was a quick and relatively painless office procedure leaving me with a mild soar throat for approximately two days. I ate a normal diet with unrestricted activity during that time. The benefits of the Pillar Procedure should be apparent after 2-3 months. As such, I had my ACDF surgery on October 3rd, 2007. The surgery was a success. Postoperatively, the surgical team had me recover in a monitored setting with fear of severe obstruction while on Morphine. I had my CPAP machine available in the hospital room just in case. I never had to use the machine. I did NOT obstruct even while asleep on Morphine. This recovery period was a stronger test of the Pillar Procedure than a regular sleep study since Morphine was involved. I thought that I would still be dependent on the CPAP machine considering I had a relatively high setting of 13cmH2O. The Pillar Procedure essentially cured my OSA.

In addition to the Pillar Procedure, I would trust Dr. Mark with any oral surgery. Many dentists in the past have had difficulty adequately numbing my teeth and jaw. I had been accustomed to three attempts with a 45-minute wait for a patchy block resulting in a painful procedure. Dr. Mark was able to recognize an anatomical variation in my jaw that required a more superior approach to the administration of the local anesthetic. The operative site was numb with just one attempt. I have not been this comfortable during dental surgery ever. Dr. Andrei Mark is an expert in his field.

This was 1000% better than my previous wisdom-tooth extraction experience. Dr. Mark is the real reason to be treated at this office but I have to say that Patricia on his staff contacted my insurance company before the procedure to find out what my co-pay would be (ie, the actual amount, not just the %), which I found extremely helpful. The two other dentists I was refered to for this procedure weren't able to give me any kind of rate estimate or range for cost of the procedure or cost I would be responsible for. Two thumbs up for Dr. Mark!

I was waiting for the pull, so I asked him when was he going to do it? Oh... I din't tell you, the teeth are out already...I could not believe it! I also had the snoring procedure done with him, with similar results... had surgery on friday...saturday mild discomfort in the throat... sunday I was at a party!

Liton, his surgical assistant is very seriously intent on doing a good job. Liton makes really good temps that same day and works well under the direction and guidance of the preeminent Dr. Andrei Mark the NYC doctor/comedian of the year....If you need serious dental work go to see to Mark. But do not expect to leave crying. They are quite a fun office to deal with. And say hello to Roxanne for me!!!
