Dr. Russo and his staff are courteous and professional. I researched multiple periodontists in the area, and Dr. Russo was the most experienced. I would recommend him to anyone needing assistance with any gum or implant issues.

I came to Dr. Russo for a second opinion after being told from a previous dentist (first time patient) that I needed bone replacement and other work to the tune of $12,500! Dr. Russo reviewed my xrays and told me I did not need any of the work recommended by the previous dentist. He was honest, spent a lot of time with me to explain what I did actually need done which was minor compared to the other dentists recommendation. I highly recommend Dr. Russo and his staff who were as kind and professional as the doctor!
