sie.nyc — A Therapeutic Approach to Modern Dentistry

Your First Visit

Welcome to Nina Kumar DDS! The first appointment with Dr. Kumar and her team is an important one. We take the time to sort through your oral health needs and wants, presenting oral health issues and options for treatment, and educating and empowering you with the knowledge to guide your own oral health care for years to come.

Every question on our intake forms is crafted to give us specific information about your health, so please take the time to read through and answer thoroughly.

The Comprehensive Exam
We focus on the five areas of oral health, gaining a comprehensive view of your needs. Your examination includes digital x-rays as well as a visual and physical exam to look for new cavities, weaknesses in teeth and existing restorative work, gum health, and any abnormalities in hard and soft tissues.

Educate Yourself

A quiet library of writing on the small things that shape long-term oral health.

Acidity & pH

The balancing act inside the mouth has a direct effect on your risk for cavities. A closer look at acid erosion.

Halitosis

Bad breath can quietly affect self-esteem and social ease. Understanding its causes is the first step toward relief.

Post-Op Sensitivity

Sensitivity after composite restorations remains a common but often preventable outcome. Here's what we consider.
