As with any trauma to the mouth, you should consult with us immediately to determine if treatment is required. We will examine the area and take necessary x-rays. If you are in pain from a broken, cracked, or chipped tooth, you may want to take an over the counter anti-inflammatory pain reliever such as Advil or aspirin.
Our reception desk will accommodate the appointment request and contact you within one business day to confirm the date and time requested. Calling the dental office is a fast and convenient way to schedule an appointment. Our front office team will do whatever it takes to get you in at a date and time that's suitable for you.
When you come in for your dental check-up, you will be given an oral examination and then a cleaning. Here are a few things you can expect on your dental visit that keep your teeth healthy. What you eat affects the air you exhale. Certain foods, such as garlic and onions, contribute to objectionable breath odor.
Bonding can fix minor cosmetic dental problems such as closing small gaps between teeth, adding tooth length or changing the overall shape of a tooth by bonding a special resin to your tooth. A crown may be recommended after root canal therapy has been completed in order to protect your tooth structure and improve the appearance of your teeth.
A root canal may be needed if the decay has reached the tooth's nerve. Essentially, a root canal involves cleaning out a tooth's infected root, then filling and sealing the canal. Bonding can fix minor cosmetic dental problems such as closing small gaps between teeth, adding tooth length or changing the overall shape of a tooth by bonding a special resin to your tooth.

My existing dentist no longer accepted my insurance so my insurance company sent me a letter referring me to this office. I called on a Tuesday and got voice mail, I left a message. I did not get a return call by the next day so I followed up with an online submission through their website. No response to either the voice mail or the online submission after several days. I called again and finally got a person. I expressed I was a new patient, and I emailed all of my dental insurance info so she could check on my insurance coverage, and we set up an appointment for a week and a half later.

Went in over a year ago for multiple sessions for fillings, they didn’t know how to use the x ray machines properly, and had to redo multiple photos, my last filling sessions also felt extremely rushed (dentist dropped tools multiple times, equipment kept breaking, and left the room right when we are done leaving me no time to ask questions) and now a year later those teeth fillings involved in that rushed last session are now falling out. To top it off I was set for one more session to finish my fillings but when we get there they say they no longer take our insurance with no warning even tho

Tried to make an appointment as a new patient and spoke to the front desk receptionist who had so much attitude, my wife had to take the phone from me and put her in her place. She didn’t understand what I was saying at all and repeatedly kept telling me that I wasn’t understanding her when I knew exactly what she was saying. Would give this place 0 stars if I could.

By far the worst experience I've had at a dentist office. The place is a factory, they don't care about patients at all. At my first root canal appt I sat in the chair for an hour and a half before they even began. Then when I got to the pharmacy I was told that my prescriptions weren't sent over. After 4 phone calls and 6 hours of waiting while in pain FINALLY my prescription was sent. I had a perforated sinus from the procedure and despite my multiple phone calls to them NO ONE ever called me back. Now 3 weeks later I find out that they never sent the authorization for the second

Absolutely terrible service. They don't care about you or any of their patients, incredibly rude. My mother had broken her tooth and I came in and told them it was an emergency and they said they can't see her because she cancelled her last appointment. My mother broke her tooth and was bleeding from the mouth profusely, she wasn't there a routine check up. I am very disappointed that this can even be a considered an office of medicine. I wouldn't wish this place on anyone.

I always have a great experience during my visits to this location. The receptionist, Dolina, and the assistant manager, Maria, are particularly great with customer service. They were super resourceful during my last visit. They thoroughly explained certain dental procedures and helped me identify affordable services to offset costs. Their new dental assistant, Sherry, is also very nice! I definitely recommend them :)

Very very disappointing experience. The staff especially the young boy they have was very rude and disrespectful. In this time of pandemic they behaved very negligent. Also they made me wait for 2hour despite my confirmed appointment without giving me any excuse. And when I asked explanation manager incharge was very rude and disrespectful. I had to walk out without any treatment whatsoever . I wasted my time and money going to that clinic in Hicksville. Truly disgusting.

Had my doubts when I was there a few months ago but there has been a total upgrade and re-staffing of the office. The calming ocean tvs with serene music in the rooms was fantastic. The dental assistant was sweet and understanding of my fears and the dentist had me laughing even while drilling for my crown. I highly recommend them!

The Hicksville Location was AWESOME!!! The best staff. The young man who did my X-rays was friendly sweet and made me feel at ease. The dental hygiene’s who gave me my cleaning was super friendly and wonderful! The front desk team was great too 😃The whole experience was great from start to finish. I highly recommend going here and can’t wait to go back!!

I visited American Dental Hicksville as I was interested in braces for my daughter. The Assistant manager informed me of the protocol and schedule. Then the manager spent some time with me explaining the expectations and financial obligations...realistically. Truly professional and would recommend as they work to meet every individual's need.

I came in recently for a check up and cleaning and was very pleased with the service I received. My appointment was for 2:00pm and I was seen by 2:05pm, which is great because I'm use to having to wait at least 30 minutes at my old dentist. While there I meet Tracey who cleaned my teeth. She was very knowledgeable and friendly. Overall I had a wonderful experience and can't wait to head back in 6 months.

I used to go to Hicksville American Dental and they are " horrible" also.
I decided to give Commack, a try with Covid still on the rise it's hard to get a dentist appointment. After calling for 3-days with no return call. I got through on the 4th day for cleaning, x-ray and to see the doctor.
He looks like a 95yr old "Frail" man that is slow as molasses, he ask you if you have any problems but he is looking in your mouth and if he sees a cavity, he will act blind , because it's not a root canal. He doesn't think filling cavities with the white powder, gives

I'm writing this while dumped on hold for over 9 minutes. Insurance sales agent called me because she must have kept my number in her file. I vaguely remember her but she mentioned this business and provided their phone number.
I think you're readers should be aware of a place that hire someone so unprofessional that she never spoke with me. There is a recording about how wonderful they are that keeps repeating itself.
Almost 11 minutes have gone by and I'm hanging up now. Since writing this review I found a wonderful dental office. The staff is stellar and Dentist repaired my teeth

I had an appointment for a 6 month cleaning at the Caton Ave location. I arrived at my appointment 30min prior to. I was called in for X-rays by a female Asian assistant then a male doctor came in reviewed my X-rays & walked me to the front desk to schedule another appointment. Another appointment!!!!! Miss I’m here for a cleaning what are you… talking about. She states that her supervisor didn’t want her to inform the patients that the hygienist wasn’t going to be in. If I had know prior to coming in today I would’ve never kept my appointment I would’ve

I will start by saying they have changed locations and it is much nicer! Very big and clean.
That said, I would not recommend this place to anyone! Extremely unprofessional, incompatant, and disingenuous. I have been lied to by staff. I have been rushed out of my appointment by the dentist himself. They didn't file paperwork with my insurance that they swore the would. They have repeatedly canceled and rescheduled my appointments. The dentist that I have seen 5 times has no idea who I am.
All in all they have really lowered the standard of dental care.

Don't put me on hold for 15 min. so I give up calling about a problem. The Dr. should read and know the treatment plan we agreed upon before seeing me and wasting my time going over things that have already been decided. Don't make appts. at 4pm if everyone goes home and you can't do the necessary work like x-rays and fillings.

If you have pain, they will most likely call the wrong pharmacy, send the wrong pain meds, not send you enough pain meds for the time you need them, then tell you they don't have a digital system, so you have to wait two weeks while in intense pain. Then after your surgery, they give you something that couldn't relieve pain in a goldfish, and don't even call in your meds to the pharmacy, so after making you wait at the office for an hour and a half (even though you were 15 minutes early for your appt), yanking your tooth, and not sending in the pain meds, you wait on hold for forty

When you first walk in it looks like you are not in a dentist's office. The "rooms" have no privacy; in fact there aren't any doors (they have swinging old west saloon style doors) so everything can be heard. I heard a lot of people's medical history from sitting in the waiting room. The staff is mostly Spanish (most of them don't have the best English skills, but they manage.) My experience started when someone called out my middle name three times and no one answered. After a few minutes I went up to the receptionist and asked if they were calling me. She said
