Madison, a New Yorker, has this to say about her trip to Prisma Dental and her new smile:
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I could not be more appreciative for my beautiful smile provided by Dr. Telma Rubinstein and the incredible staff at Prisma. Being that I work in the NYC fashion industry and I am surrounded by new people all of the time, I was very self-conscious of my crooked front teeth. My family has been going to Prisma and has raved about the quality of work and wonderful staff. I was so impressed with the makeover my mouth has undergone! Prisma has made my dream of a beautiful Hollywood smile come true! Thank you again! – Madison, New York, New York

Tiffany has sent over a number of recent comments from new patients at Prisma Dental, along with before and after pictures. We know people love to see those.
This note came from Karen, in North Carolina:
Came here not knowing what to expect, and received the world with a whole new smile … I had a tooth that another dentist ignored the look of for 20 years … and Dr. Telma fixed it and made a new smile for me. I will never go anywhere else! It was well worth the trip from North Carolina and Casa Lima B&B was the best! — Karen, North Carolina

Starting in late 2009, Drs. Telma Rubinstein and Josef Cordero began using the patented Perio Protect method of treating gum diseases such as gingivitis and periodontitis. They have had uniformly outstanding results and are now offering Perio Protect ™ to all their patients. Prisma is proud to be one of the earliest certified adopters of the technique.
A longtime Prisma patient, David Strauss of Hollywood, Florida, started Perio Protect treatment several months ago. Here is what he has to say:
I am 81 years old and have been using the Perio Protect method for several months. I have been troubled with gum disease for almost 45 years. Prisma Dental, namely Drs. Telma Rubinstein and Josef Cordero, have been fighting vigorously for 17 years to save my teeth. With Perio Protect, I can say: We are winning the battle.
Prior to starting the Perio Protect, I went to Prisma Dental once a month, for a periodontal cleaning which took one and a half hours. Now my regular cleaning takes less than 30 minutes. The results are absolutely fantastic. It is a very simple, totally painless procedure; they merely make a tray for the bottom and top of my teeth. Twice a day, I insert the antibiotic with a few drops in each tray followed by a thin layer of the special gel. I use it for 30 minutes in the morning and 30 minutes at night.
I can tell you this: from my personal experience of using Perio Protect, for only three short months — This is the way to combat gum disease There was no sure treatment before this.
David is available to talk or correspond about his experience with anyone interested in obtaining similar good results and relief from suffering.
