Meet Dr. Jessica Lee, DDS
Education & Professional Background
Dr. Lee earned her Bachelor of Arts in Biology from New York University before completing her Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) degree at NYU College of Dentistry. While at NYU, she was selected for an honors elective at the Oral Health Center for People with Disabilities, an experience that shaped her thoughtful, individualized approach to patient care.
Following dental school, Dr. Lee completed a General Practice Residency at Woodhull Medical Center in New York City. Training in a high-volume hospital setting gave her broad, hands-on experience across restorative dentistry, endodontics, oral surgery, periodontal and implant care, dental emergencies, and the treatment of medically complex patients.
Clinical Expertise
Dr. Lee brings meticulous technique and a refined eye for esthetics to every procedure. Her areas of expertise include:
- Comprehensive restorative dentistry
- Cosmetic dentistry, with close attention to natural-looking, comfortable results
- Endodontics
- Periodontal and implant care
- Oral surgery and management of dental emergencies
- Care for medically complex patients
Her hospital-based training gives her the confidence and precision to handle a wide range of cases, always with an eye toward function as well as esthetics.
Patient-Centered Philosophy
Dr. Lee believes patients should feel fully informed before making any treatment decision. She takes the time to listen closely to each patient's concerns and explain options clearly and thoughtfully, so they can move forward with confidence.
She has a particular passion for working with anxious patients and those returning to the dentist after time away. Her calm, gentle chairside manner has helped many patients feel comfortable enough to fully relax during treatment — some have even fallen asleep in the chair. Her goal, always, is for patients to leave feeling comfortable, confident, and well cared for.
Dr. Lee sees patients in English and Korean.
Life Beyond Dentistry
Before pursuing dentistry, Dr. Lee once dreamed of becoming a chef, and food is still a passion — she loves cooking and discovering new restaurants around New York City. Outside the office, she enjoys jazz, museums, and early morning runs through the city. Fellow runners are always welcome to swap favorite NYC routes and race recommendations with her.
