Cosmetic Dentistry in NYC – Dr. Pia

At Cosmetic Dentistry Center NYC – Dr. Pia, located on Park Avenue at 30 Central Park South, internationally celebrated cosmetic dentist Dr. Pia has built a reputation as the world’s go-to Smile Architect™. With more than 30 years of experience, Dr. Pia is renowned for her bespoke approach to smile makeovers, serving royalty, supermodels, Oscar-winning actors, CEOs, and discerning individuals who view their smile as their ultimate signature.

Nicknamed the “Michelangelo of Dentistry,” Dr. Pia is recognized for her artistry, precision, and commitment to preserving natural tooth structure. As a Clinical Assistant Professor Emerita at NYU College of Dentistry, she continues to shape the future of cosmetic dentistry through innovation and education.

The Dr. Pia Method™

Unlike traditional dentistry that often relies on aggressive drilling or mass-produced restorations, Dr. Pia developed the Dr. Pia Method™, a minimally invasive, no-drill approach that allows patients to preview their new smile before committing.

Her no-prep veneers are custom-layered from feldspathic porcelain, as thin as a contact lens, yet durable enough to last decades. The artistry lies in replicating the natural translucency, texture, and tone of real enamel, achieving results so seamless that even close-up cameras cannot distinguish the difference.

Signature Cosmetic Dentistry Services

No-Drill Porcelain Veneers – Ultra-thin, handcrafted veneers designed without filing away natural enamel. Ideal for patients seeking a natural, reversible enhancement.
Porcelain Crowns – Custom-designed feldspathic crowns that perfectly match natural teeth. Especially indicated for front teeth where lifelike translucency is critical.
Smile Makeovers – Comprehensive transformations for patients seeking harmony, confidence, and beauty in their smile. Includes specialized treatments such as:
- Bridal Smile Makeovers – Designing picture-perfect smiles for weddings.
- Menopause Makeovers – Addressing age-related changes in tooth structure, color, and facial proportions.
- Ozempic Smile Restorations – Correcting rapid weight-loss-related changes to facial support and smile esthetics.

Dr. Pia changed my life and gave me better advice than any other dentist. I have had a lot of dental issues and the orthodontists I’ve been to haven’t been very helpful, but Dr. Pia told me exactly what I need to do and what help I need to request from my orthodontist.

Dr. Pia is a smile MIRACLE WORKER! I had some very challenging dental problems that I had tried to resolve at two other dental offices. I was so disappointed that my front teeth supposedly could not be restored properly.

Paul Marron

I've been seeing Dr Pia for 20 years and she is the best- she's always paid close attention to my dental health and pointed out exactly what was happening (in my case it was grinding) she helped get me fixed up with a proper night guard. She also gave excellent advice to take with me after my appointment. Her staff is also exceptional with scheduling- thank you Maryem for sorting us all out! see you in 6 months!
