Dr. Mahtab Azimi, DDS

Periodontal care in the Bronx covers everything from gum disease treatment to dental implant placement. Specialists in this field handle both routine maintenance and complex procedures like bone grafting or crown lengthening. Many patients arrive through referrals from general dentists, though self-referrals for concerns like persistent gum inflammation or loose teeth are just as common.

The office of Dr. Mahtab Azimi, DDS sits at 55 E Mosholu Pkwy N, a stretch of the Bronx where medical and dental practices share space with residential blocks. Periodontists here address issues that extend beyond the scope of regular cleanings, including gum recession, periodontal pockets, and the placement of implants to replace missing teeth. The area’s mix of pre-war buildings and mid-century construction gives it a distinctly New York character, with easy access to public transit for those coming from other boroughs.

Gum health often gets overlooked until discomfort or visible changes occur, but early intervention can prevent more invasive treatments later. Procedures like scaling and root planing—deep cleanings that target bacteria below the gumline—are standard here, alongside surgical options when non-invasive methods aren’t enough. Questions about insurance coverage or specific procedures are best directed to the practice directly.

Reaching the office is simplest by checking the map for directions, especially for first-time visitors unfamiliar with the Mosholu Parkway corridor. The phone line, (718) 652-7370, connects to the front desk for appointment scheduling or pre-visit details.
