Joseph D. Randazzo, DDS
Maxillofacial Prosthodontist
My Role at MSKWe post reviews for MSK healthcare providers who have at least 30 patient experience surveys completed. If you do not see reviews for a provider, it may be because they do not yet have enough survey responses, or the provider may not be part of the group of healthcare providers included in the survey.
Only outpatient providers are included in the survey. Healthcare providers who only work in the hospital or in urgent care are not included in the survey. Pathologists or researchers who do not provide direct care to patients do not have reviews.

About Me
- Director, Maxillofacial Prosthetics
I am a board-certified prosthodontist who specializes in creating prosthetics to replace missing tissue in the jaws and face. I have been in practice for more than 20 years.
I have experience caring for people with cancer and those who have complex restorative or other maxillofacial prosthetic needs. I work closely with Memorial Sloan Kettering’s Ophthalmology Department to create prostheses for the eyes.
As a member of the MSK Kids team, I create prosthetic eyes for children treated for an eye cancer called retinoblastoma. It gives me great satisfaction to be involved in the care of newborns, toddlers, and children who have lost one or both eyes to this disease and to help them feel whole.

In my research, I am studying how we can incorporate digital technology into patient care. I am also interested in improving the delivery of dental care to people with significant functional and cosmetic needs.
When I first meet with patients, I try to put them at ease and help them feel comfortable, despite the anxiety they may be experiencing. I help them make treatment decisions regarding function and appearance. I listen closely to all of their concerns, explain each treatment option, and assure them that I will do everything I can to help them maintain their quality of life.
A maxillofacial (max-ill-o-FAY-shul) prosthodontist (pros-thoh-DON-tist) has special training in treating problems of the face, jaw, and nearby soft tissue. They are trained in using a prothesis (pros-THEE-sis), an artificial piece that replaces a body part (also called a prosthetic).
