Dr. Scott Kupetz has been serving Haviland, NY and the surrounding Dutchess County communities since 1988. What started as a commitment to provide anxiety-free dental care has grown into one of the region’s most trusted practices.
As a family-owned dental office, we understand that every patient walks through our doors with different needs, concerns, and comfort levels.

Your first visit starts with a conversation, not a drill. We’ll discuss your concerns, review your dental history, and explain exactly what we’re going to do before we do it. No surprises, no rushing through your appointment.
During your comprehensive exam, we use modern diagnostic tools to get a complete picture of your oral health. Dr. Kupetz will walk you through the findings and explain your treatment options in plain English – no confusing dental jargon.
If you need treatment, we’ll discuss sedation options if anxiety is a concern. From simple cleanings to complex restorative work, everything happens at your comfort level and pace. You’ll know the cost upfront, and we’ll work with your insurance to maximize your benefits.

Dr. Kupetz is certified in multiple sedation techniques including oral sedation (pills), nitrous oxide (laughing gas), and IV sedation. The right option depends on your anxiety level and the complexity of your treatment.
Oral sedation is perfect for moderate anxiety and longer appointments. You’ll take a pill before your visit and feel completely relaxed during treatment. Nitrous oxide works quickly and wears off fast, so you can drive yourself home. IV sedation provides the deepest relaxation for patients with severe dental phobia or extensive treatment needs.
