About Cote Periodontics, Lee M. Cote, Jr., D.M.D., PLLC

Cote Periodontics on East Morse Boulevard in Winter Park is a single-specialty periodontal practice led by Lee M. Cote Jr., D.M.D., a periodontist with specialist-level training focused on the diagnosis and treatment of gum disease and the surgical placement of dental implants. The East Morse Boulevard location in Winter Park is one of the most central addresses in this community, accessible from across the Winter Park grid and from the adjacent Maitland and Casselberry communities that look to Winter Park for specialty medical and dental care. Periodontal care begins with the examination: a comprehensive charting of probing depths, clinical attachment levels, recession measurements, and furcation involvement of multi-rooted teeth, combined with a radiographic assessment of interproximal bone levels. Bleeding on probing, suppuration from pockets, and tooth mobility are all recorded because they reflect the current inflammatory status and guide the urgency and sequence of treatment. For patients with gingivitis alone — gum inflammation without measurable bone loss — professional debridement and improved home oral hygiene typically resolves the condition. For patients with periodontitis and bone loss, the treatment pathway begins with non-surgical scaling and root planing, which is performed quadrant by quadrant under local anesthesia to ensure thorough access to root surfaces. Re-evaluation at six to eight weeks determines the response and identifies whether surgical intervention is needed for residual pockets. Dr. Cote is experienced in the full range of periodontal surgical procedures: osseous surgery, guided tissue regeneration, and connective tissue grafting for root coverage. Dental implant placement is an important part of the practice scope, including the planning, surgery, and post-operative management through integration. Insurance coordination for periodontal treatment is handled by the clinical team.

Cote Periodontics on East Morse Boulevard in Winter Park provides comprehensive gum disease treatment, periodontal surgery, and dental implant placement.

I’ve had a great experience at Dr. Côte’s office. The front desk staff are always very friendly, professional, and welcoming, which makes check-in and scheduling easy and stress-free. The hygienists are both excellent at what they do thorough, gentle, and clearly very skilled so my cleanings are comfortable and my teeth feel fantastic afterward. I really appreciate the caring atmosphere and the high level of expertise throughout the entire team, and I would happily recommend this office to family and friends.

Spacious and comfortable waiting room, welcoming staff and Dr. Cote is very knowledgeable and patient. He discussed my diagnosis in detail and after a gentle examination, provided and explained his suggested plan. No pressure! I had time to ask questions and was not forced to make a decision that moment. Check in and check out was a breeze and there were no unexpected costs.

Dr. Lee M. Cote Jr. recommended and performed the periodontic surgery for me. Every step of planning and actual procedure went well. Dr. Cote and his staff provided the valuable guidance during the preparation, surgery, and post-surgery recovery times. Dr. Cote and his staff provide the professional, attentive, and considering service. I recommend Dr. Lee M. Cote Jr. practice as one of the best Periodontics practices in Orlando area.

Dr. Cote and his entire staff are the absolute BEST. The quality of care is excellent. Dr. Cote's knowledge, patience, skill, and compassion is beyond anything I've ever experienced. Billy and Trina at the front desk have been with the practice since the previous owner, Dr.Coatam started the practice. That about says it all. They are efficient, professional and so very kind. Dr. Cote's assistants could not be any better. They're awesome. As someone who is absolutely terrified of going to the dentist, I cannot recommend this practice enough. It's as close to pain free dentistry as I've ever experienced. Your comfort is #1 from the moment you walk in the door. They make you feel like you're coming to visit old friends

I have nothing but love to share about this practice. From the warm, family-like welcome by Trina at the front desk, the accommodating patience of Jenn who has been the dental assistant, the skill and positive energy of Dr. Cote, to the proficient passion of Elena, it feels like walking into a family of care each time I visit. It’s sort of embarrassing, but I look forward to my appointments at this office. Elena, as part of my overall plan from Dr. Cote, preformed scale and root planing via two appointments (left side, right side). She takes great pride in helping her patients understand not just the procedure and at-home maintenance routines, but how they benefit your overall health. She never uses a condescending tone, rather she hopes to empower. For example, I’ve been brushing my teeth incorrectly my entire life and hadn’t been to a dentist in decades. “You’ve been doing great. Let’s start with why we even brush our teeth to begin with…why do humans have teeth that we can’t naturally maintain, right?” Out came a 3D model of the mouth where we looked at how the gums wrap around the roots of the teeth and she explained how incredible the gums are in keeping us healthy, what frustrates the gums’ ability to protect us, and what I can do to assist my gums. After a while, she explained the scale and root planing procedure thoroughly, as well as what it would be like afterward. Honestly, I never felt a thing and I didn’t even feel like I had to recover (other than the three hours for the numbness to subside). I’ve never felt someone be so gentle with me so that I wasn’t even aware that the numbing had begun (never felt a needle — don’t even understand how that’s possible). It was shocking to me how someone who was this gentle could then be so aggressively proficient in doing all she could to reclaim healthy gums. She is amazing. I enter each time to this practice with a wide smile, and I leave each time with hugs. I never would have believed that if I didn’t experience it. If you love your dental world (dentist, periodontist, endodontist, etc.), that’s fantastic. If you don’t, start here.

I have been seeing Dr. Cote Jr. for years now. That in itself is a 10 star review! He is very thorough in explaining everything you need to know, takes his time to answer any questions you might have, and makes you feel comfortable. Not to be forgot is the front desk staff. They rock they always have! Thanks for being there!

The front desk staff are helpful. The doctor is knowledgable. He really takes his time to explain things and answer your questions. It was so nice to not feel rushed. I loved feeling like a person not a number. The hygienist also provided a lot of great information. Everyone was really friendly and professional. The only negative for me was their hours did not really match my ideal though that is not their fault and I do not think they are unusual hours for a medical/ dental office. Highly recommend this office. I wish I had been referred here years ago.

Dr Cote was great to work with. He’s very professional and caring thru the process. Tells you about every step, that will happen. On a side note, the mouth rinse, should be included in the cost of the procedure. No need for extra charges. Thank you Kyle
