Frequently Asked Dental Questions
Dentistry is a fairly niche field, and many medical professionals refer their patients to dentists for oral care – which means we get a lot of questions! If you have a few on your mind, take a look at our FAQs below. You might just get your question answered without even having to pick up the phone!
How do I find the best place to get dental work done?
For the most part, that depends on your personal needs and preferences. How important is it for you to visit an office that’s closer to home? Will you need the practice to be in-network with your dental insurance? What dental work do you want to get done, and are there any dentists at the practice who are well-qualified to complete it?

Because of their versatile skills, we can provide truly comprehensive care for our patients, making our services simple and convenient. We’re also dental insurance friendly, accept patients of all ages, and have two office locations in the Long Island City area.

Should I remove my troubled teeth before or after receiving dentures?
Before receiving dentures in Long Island City, it’s best to remove any compromised teeth that can’t be salvaged with other restorative treatments.
Dentures are customized to fit each patient’s unique smile comfortably and securely. So leaving teeth that should be extracted in your mouth could make your dentures unreliable or even uncomfortable. Rest assured; we’ll help you make sure your smile is ready to go before fitting you for dentures!
What counts as a dental emergency?
Many different oral situations can count as a dental emergency. Here are a few examples:
- Toothaches
- Chipped or knocked-out teeth
- Lost or damaged restorations
- Gum, lip, or tongue injuries
- Jaw pain
Basically, if your oral function or comfort has been compromised suddenly, it’s a good idea to call our office and make an appointment!
