Board-certified periodontist, Brushwell Dental, Monterey Park, California

Dr. Frank Sy is a Diplomate of the American Board of Periodontology and treats gum disease, dental implants and the gum and bone around them. The work ranges from traditional periodontal therapy to personalized periodontal medicine, soft and hard tissue reconstruction, and the management of peri-implant disease.

Dr. Sy earned a DMD at Boston University's Goldman School of Dental Medicine, completed a general practice residency at Montefiore Medical Center and periodontics training at New York University, then added a master's degree in orofacial pain and oral medicine at USC.

On this site, Dr. Sy writes the Longevity Protocol: how gum health connects to the rest of the body, and what a periodontist does to bring inflammation down and keep it there.
