Dr. Frank utilizes sealants. Sealants are a protective barrier bonded to the chewing surface of a tooth. It prevents bacteria from accumulating into tiny grooves on the surfaces of the teeth. This does not eliminate the need for proper dental care but is recognized as an effective and valuable asset in the prevention of tooth decay.
A bridge is an artificial tooth used to replace one that is missing. It is permanently cemented to your adjacent or neighboring teeth. The benefits of using a bridge to replace a missing tooth (or teeth) are how natural it looks, feels and especially functions. With proper care, bridges can last for many years.
Your teeth are composed of two main parts: The crown is the part visible above the gum. The root is the part below the gum that holds your tooth firmly in your jaw bone. If the crown of your tooth becomes weakened by decay or fractures, it can be restored and strengthened by an artificial crown (cap).
Improve your quality of life, dramatically improve your chewing ability and regain your confidence in public with dental implants! If you are looking for a way to replace a missing tooth that is most similar to your natural one, an implant may be your solution. Dental implants are small, sturdy, titanium posts, which act as the root structure would for a natural tooth.

Dr. Frank and staff are customer friendly and the office has all the high tech equipment . However, I have had many disappointments with trying to get the right fit for a partial after 8 months. I finally gave up and moved on. He is very pricey, and you don't get your money's worth. I would shop around before choosing this dentist.

My smile says it all! Dr. Frank and his team gave me that smile and I couldn’t be more grateful for them. Not only did they work with me to get my smile done in time for my special day, but they made sure it was everything I wanted and more. They made time for me and worked with me through every step and I will forever be appreciative of all that he/they have done for me. I highly recommend with no doubt in my mind that you won’t be disappointed!

It is an understatement to say this place changed my life. 8/2018 is when I went to my first appointment after delaying for 15 years due to standard dental anxiety. The entire treatment plan was laid out for me before I committed to the process. The work ahead to correct everything was enormous. I had appointments every 1 - 2 weeks for 6 months to get me as ready as they could for my wedding. It is hard to explain the impact Dr. Frank and all his staff had on me but I truly appreciate that place and all his staff more than they realize.

I couldn't say enough about Dr. Frank and his staff! Very different experience from the other dentists I have tried. They are extremely patient (especially when your anxious) and kind. I've never seen such a wonderfully working team. It's also nice to see a Dr., who respects his staff. Fantastic experience!

I visited doctor frank after looking for a dentist in the area for over a year. The staff was so respectful and compassionate. They were understanding about finances, answering all of my questions. The hygienist Katie was the most knowledgeable hygienist who has ever worked on me. She noticed that I am tongue tied - something that no provider has ever raised. She was gentle, communicative, kind and great at cleaning my teeth. I learned how to correctly use fluoride mouthwash for example, just because she took the time to explain. Thank you!

Dr Frank has always been so amazing! From cleanings to xrays to a surprise root canal that I didn’t even feel (his hands are so gentle). Yesterday I had the grooves filled on my back teeth and the work is so amazing that I’m taking photos of it! The visit was so quick and enjoyable (as much as it could be). I recommend him to everyone but now I will actually be showing people the proof! :)

Dr Frank and his staff are top notch! The kindness, compassion, and professionalism from this team is 2nd to none. On two separate occasions, Dr Frank and his staff scheduled me in on short notice when I had issues arise. They couldn’t have been more accommodating. I would have given 6 stars if I could!

Beautiful office! Tucked away on Krause Street off Western Ave. My first time here and the ladies at reception were very warm and welcoming when I arrived. The waiting room is comfortable and very nicely decorated. Yolanda, the dental assistant, was kind and sweet. The exam room was clean and good music was playing quietly, along with a TV to make the time go faster. Dr. Frank was attentive, understanding, and able to recommend exactly what I needed.
Would 10/10 recommend this office!

I had my first appointment with Dr. Frank and his staff yesterday. Lisa Marie, my hygienist was excellent. She explained everything in real-time and made me feel at ease through the whole x-ray and cleaning process. This is 100% the first cleaning that was not painful yet very thorough. She is a true pro, and super nice. Dr. Frank makes you feel comfortable from the minute he walks in. I have an issue with an implant/temp on my front tooth from another dentist/oral surgeon in NYC that he is addressing, and I felt that after our consultation, I'm in good hands. In addition, the rest of the staff

I CANNOT say enough amazing things about this practice. Their tag line "Compassionate Care" is more of a Standard Operating Procedure than a description. The people here are so talented and genuine and packed so full of sincere concern for the patients care comfort and results, it's the only outcome and just IS the natural result. From the amazing administrative staff, to Dr. Frank (Mr. Perfectionist) himself. And if you do choose this practice, Jola the hygienist, will emerge and not only change your perception and fears about dentistry, but you make you look forward to your

I have been a patient of Dr. Franks for many years. Lots of different work done through the years, from routine fillings to more complicated bridgework. Dr. Frank is kind, compassionate and extremely talented. The office runs smoothly and efficiently and is always there when you need them. Really nice staff and Dr. Frank really cares about your comfort and the final product of his work. Big fan!

I had 4 teeth fixed by Dr. Frank. I had a zirconium crown, a cerec onlay and 2 other teeth restored by him recently. Let me tell you that everything from start to finish was so very pleasant & comfortable. His technique while administering the local anesthesia was painless and effective. The restorations & crown feel great, look so pretty & now those teeth are healthy again. He is truly a master of his craft & also an incredibly gifted cosmetic dentist. I feel confident having my family under his care and can not wait to have him make the rest of my smile flawless. I could go

I'm a student from out of state and when I had a killer toothache last year, Dr Frank's office was able to accommodate me almost immediately.
Since then I've had to come in a few times to have Dr. Frank fix mistakes my other dentists back home have made. I wish I'd have just come here exclusively from the beginning to get everything done right. The other review a few years ago was right on, Dr. Frank knows his stuff and seems to enjoy what he does.
Ann Marie has been my dental hygienist and I've been very satisfied with her service. Her friendliness makes the whole process

As Far as dentists go ... i love this guy ! he's super nice ... really calm .. and really wants to help !
I went there because a tooth broke and i was new to the area but he does smile reconstruction ...so i figured my broken tooth would be no problem...
and even though it needed a root canal, it wasnt a problem .
the ladies in the office are SUPER friendly ...and "Pat" always knows who i am when i call ! everyone here makes you feel better about having to go to the dentist , which is a comfort ..being that the dentist freaks me out normally .
