Hear from Our Customers
You want a dentist who actually fixes problems instead of just finding them. That’s what you get with our comprehensive dental care that addresses everything from routine cleanings to complex restorative work.
When your oral health improves, everything else follows. Better confidence in social situations. No more avoiding certain foods. No more covering your mouth when you laugh.
The difference shows up in ways you might not expect—clearer speech, better sleep, even improved overall health since your mouth connects to everything else in your body.
Dr. Scott Kupetz has been serving patients throughout Scotia and Schenectady County for over 20 years. Our practice combines modern dental technology with old-school patient care—the kind where you actually know your dentist’s name and he remembers yours.
Our team includes long-term staff members, some who’ve been with us for nearly two decades. That consistency matters when you’re dealing with something as personal as your health.
Scotia residents appreciate having access to comprehensive dental care without traveling to Albany or other larger cities. From routine family dentistry to advanced cosmetic procedures, we handle most dental needs under one roof.
Your first visit starts with a comprehensive examination and discussion of your dental history and current concerns. Dr. Kupetz takes time to explain what he finds and recommends, using plain language instead of confusing dental jargon.
If treatment is needed, you’ll receive a clear explanation of your options, timeline, and costs upfront. No surprise bills or hidden fees later. For routine cleanings and preventive care, most visits are completed in a single appointment.
Complex procedures like dental implants or cosmetic work involve a consultation phase where you can ask questions and understand exactly what to expect. We also offer sedation dentistry for patients who experience dental anxiety, ensuring comfort throughout any procedure.
