Senior Periodontist with Dr. Evelyn Spencer
Dr. Evelyn Spencer is a board-certified periodontist specialising in periodontal therapy and dental implantology. At ToothDocs New York she treats gum disease at every stage, from scaling and root planing for early disease through surgical and regenerative treatment for advanced cases, and places dental implants, including the bone grafting and soft tissue grafting that give an implant a healthy, lasting foundation.
Board certification means Dr. Spencer has completed the American Board of Periodontology's examination process beyond her residency training. She is a member of the International Team for Implantology, whose evidence-based guidelines shape how she plans implant cases, and she is active in local study clubs with other specialists. Before clinical practice she contributed to research at the University of Pennsylvania, Imperial College London and the University of Sydney, and the habit of asking what the evidence actually shows has stayed with her.
With patients, Dr. Spencer's priority is that people feel heard. Periodontal treatment can span months, and she structures it so that each step is explained, each choice is the patient's, and nobody is surprised. Originally from Australia, she sees patients exclusively at the New York office on 5th Avenue.
