Why They Were Nominated

Dr. Koenigsberg, who followed in the footsteps of her father, Dr. Andrew Koenigsberg—he graduated from Columbia University School of Dental and Oral Surgery in 1980 and cofounded Gallery 57 Dental in 2006—was one of the first dentists in New York to be certified in the use of Solea laser technology. She’s also Invisalign-certified and a member of the Academy of Laser Dentistry, the New York County Dental Society and the Children’s Dental Health Committee.

Inspiration

My father. He’s a conservative, innovative dentist who stays on top of the latest research and technology. He takes time to research each product we use. Ours was one of the first offices to have a lab with a full staff that makes same- day crown and veneers while patients wait in the chair.”

Most Memorable Patient

“A man fell outside our building and broke three front teeth. His parents were coming in from Asia that evening, and he didn’t want them to see him this way. I was able to restore his three front teeth in three hours, and in just one visit he looked as good as new. Having the lab in the back of our office is a huge advantage for shade matching and same-day procedures.”
