We offer comprehensive dental services including emergency care, general dentistry, cosmetic procedures, and restorative treatments. Same-day appointments are available for urgent situations, while routine care focuses on preventing problems before they start.
Cosmetic services include professional teeth whitening that can brighten teeth up to eight shades in one visit, custom porcelain veneers for smile makeovers, and tooth-colored restorations that blend naturally with your existing teeth. Restorative options cover everything from dental crowns and bridges to dental implants for missing teeth.
Ulster County residents benefit from modern technology that makes procedures more comfortable and efficient. Digital imaging provides instant results, while advanced materials ensure treatments last longer and look better than traditional options.
Yes, emergency dental appointments are typically available within 24 hours, often the same day. Dental emergencies like severe tooth pain, broken teeth, or facial swelling require immediate attention to prevent complications and provide relief.
When you call with a dental emergency, our priority is getting you out of pain quickly. We keep time available specifically for urgent situations because dental problems tend to worsen when left untreated. Emergency care focuses on diagnosing the problem, providing immediate pain relief, and creating a plan to address the underlying issue.
We accept most major dental insurance plans including Delta Dental and MetLife, along with many other providers. Insurance benefits are verified before treatment, and you’ll receive a clear explanation of what’s covered and what costs you can expect.
Payment plans are also available to make dental care more affordable. Our goal is ensuring you get the treatment you need without financial stress. Insurance coordination is handled by our office staff, so you can focus on your dental health rather than paperwork and claims processing.
Professional in-office teeth whitening typically takes about one hour and can brighten your teeth up to eight shades whiter in a single visit. This is significantly more effective than over-the-counter products and provides immediate, noticeable results.
The process uses professional-grade whitening agents applied safely under dental supervision. Some patients may need touch-up treatments depending on the level of staining, but most see dramatic improvement after just one appointment. Take-home whitening kits are also available for gradual whitening or maintenance of in-office results.
Severe tooth pain often indicates a serious problem like an infected tooth or abscess that requires immediate professional attention. Contact our office right away for an emergency appointment, as dental infections can spread and become dangerous if left untreated.
While waiting for your appointment, you can take over-the-counter pain medication as directed and apply a cold compress to reduce swelling. Avoid extremely hot or cold foods and drinks that might trigger more pain. Don’t ignore severe tooth pain hoping it will go away – early treatment is typically less extensive and less expensive than waiting until the problem worsens.
Yes, we offer comprehensive cosmetic dentistry including porcelain veneers, professional teeth whitening, cosmetic bonding, and smile makeovers. Veneers are custom-made thin shells that bond to the front of teeth to correct issues like staining, chips, gaps, or minor misalignment.
The veneer process typically requires two to three appointments. First, your teeth are prepared and impressions taken for custom fabrication. Then the veneers are carefully bonded to create a natural-looking, beautiful smile. Veneers are durable, stain-resistant, and can dramatically improve your smile’s appearance while preserving most of your natural tooth structure.
Yes, new patients are welcome for comprehensive family dental care. We treat patients of all ages, from children needing their first dental checkup to seniors requiring specialized care. Family scheduling makes it convenient to coordinate appointments for multiple family members.
New patient appointments include a thorough examination, digital X-rays, professional cleaning, and discussion of any treatment needs. Our focus is on creating a comfortable experience for every family member while establishing a foundation for long-term oral health. Preventive care is emphasized to help avoid more complex and expensive treatments in the future.
