Meet The Dentists:
Take from current islanddentalassociates site.
General Dentistry:
General dentistry involves the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of a wide range of
dental conditions for patients of all ages, as well as the maintenance of overall oral
health. This comprehensive care from a general dentist is usually the only source of care
patients require for their dental needs.
You can prevent dental conditions by seeing your dentist on a regular basis. Regular
visits to the dentist are recommended at least once every six months in order to
maintain proper oral hygiene and screen for any potential problems.
Cosmetic Dentistry:
At Island Dental Associates, our team of cosmetic dentists in Franklin Square Long
Island offers patients a variety of services to improve the appearance of teeth and
overall smile.
Our goal is to help renew your confidence to show off your teeth and smile once again.
Our effective treatments help correct a wide range of cosmetic dentistry concerns and
can help you overcome any apprehensions or embarrassment about the appearance of
your smile. Our cosmetic services start with free consultations and second opinions.
From there we determine which procedures such as bleaching, veneers, or bonding can
help you achieve a more attractive smile and improve your confidence and self-esteem.

experienced group of New York cosmetic dentists. Some of the services we offer include

Dental Implants:
Dental implants are improving the lives of the patients at Island Dental Associates every
day. With them our patients are rediscovering the comfort and confidence to eat, speak,
laugh and enjoy life.
Implants can be used to replace one or more teeth lost as a result of disease, trauma or
poor dental hygiene. Since implants are permanently placed directly into the gum,
replacement teeth look, feel, and function just like natural teeth.
Dental implants allow a patient who has lost teeth to regain the ability to eat virtually
anything and once again smile with confidence. Constructed of titanium, dental
implants are used as anchors to replace missing teeth or support many types of
overdentures.
Over time the implant bonds with the bone and provides a strong foundation for
replacing missing teeth. Implants also help prevent bone deterioration that occurs as a
result of missing teeth.

residences and fabricate partials and dentures at the convenience of the patient. We

Periodontics:
Periodontics is a branch of dentistry that involves conditions and diseases of the
supporting structures of the teeth. The practice of periodontics typically focuses on the
diagnosis and treatment of periodontal disease, also commonly known as gum disease.
Periodontal disease is actually a broad term that encompasses several different
conditions of the gums, including gingivitis and periodontitis. These are common
conditions that affect millions of people as a result of smoking, genetics or poor oral
hygiene.
While most cases of periodontal disease are not serious and can be effectively treated
through conservative treatment methods, proper oral hygiene and healthy life habits
should be practiced by all patients.
Laser Dentistry
Laser procedures allow patients at Island Dental Associates to achieve the most accurate
and painless treatment for a wide range of dental conditions.
Lasers are versatile tools that can be used in oral surgery in the curing of restorative
materials and in the removal of hard and soft tissue.
In addition to allowing many dental procedures to be performed quietly and painlessly,
benefits of laser dentistry over traditional methods can include:


We are proud to offer the latest and most technologically-advanced treatments
available for both children and adults. Many of the patients at Island Dental
Associates find that laser dentistry is far more comfortable than traditional methods
using drills. The only noise comes from air as it cools the area being treated. Laser
technology also allows your dentist to perform several procedures during a single
appointment, so you can achieve a healthier smile in one short visit.
At Island Dental Associates, our dentists utilize laser technology for a wide range of
procedures, including cavity detection, periodontal treatment, crown lengthening, gum
contouring, lesion removal, soft tissue contouring and frenectomy.
Sedation Dentistry
Many people experience anxiety about undergoing dental work or even visiting the
dentist at all, a fear known as dental phobia. This can keep them from seeking proper
dental care and may be compromising their dental health. Relief for patients with dental
phobia is now available through oral sedation dentistry.
Sedation dentistry involves the use of medication to provide a relaxing and anxiety-free
experience for people undergoing dental treatment.
Although sometimes referred to as “sleep dentistry“, most patients remain awake after
taking oral sedation medication and experience a sleepy feeling.
There are several different methods available to achieve varying degrees of sedation, all
depending on the type of procedure and preference of the patient.
Most patients use nitrous oxide, also known as laughing gas, to achieve the relaxed
sensation they desire for their treatment. We also offer conscious sedation and deep
sedationfor more advanced procedures, which can be administered orally or
intravenously.
With the use of dental sedation, we are able to perform most of our procedures in just
one office visit, significantly reducing the worry and anxiety many patients face when it
comes to dental care.
Take advantage of our oral sedation dentistry services for easy, fast and painless
treatments completed in just one office visit! Don’t let your smile suffer due to dental
anxieties!
