Get Twice the Expertise for Your Teeth in Massapequa, NY

January 30, 2013

In a recent blog post, we briefly mentioned at the end that here at South Shore Dental Care, we offer something very few other practices can – two dentists of different focuses who can consult together on your diagnoses and procedures. Today, we’d like to elaborate a little on what this could mean for you and your smile. At our Massapequa, NY office, we understand that you certainly don’t have the time to visit several dentists in order to assure you’re getting the best care available. We want to help you feel comfortable with our services and completely informed about what we can offer you, without you even having to leave the comfort of your computer chair!

Twice the support, twice the skill

While our husband-wife team offers a variety of procedures, from family dentistry to restorative procedures to multiple sedation techniques, they both focus on specific areas of dental care, meaning that you get a double-helping of expertise whenever you come in for care. Dr. Dory Stutman can offer you five-star cosmetic care, while Dr. Khalida Stutman specializes in orthodontic treatment.

Although dentists are experienced and well-trained professionals, when it comes to tough or tricky cases, it can help to have another qualified opinion available to you. After all, two heads is better than one!  At South Shore Dental Care, you won’t ever have to worry about needing a second opinion. It’s already available right here in our office, with both doctors looking and consulting on your specific issues and needs.

In addition, by being able to combine orthodontics with other treatment, we’ll able to offer you very conservative treatment. When having porcelain veneers fitted, you’ll have minimal or even no preparation veneers, enamel shaping, or bonding. This can be a big help to patients, especially those who are concerned about drilling or sensitivity.

Here at South Shore Dental Care, we’re committed to providing you with the most effective and informed service available. You’ll be back to sharing your smile with the world in no time!  Call our office today to schedule your consultation appointment. In addition to Massapequa, we also serve patients from Long Island, Merrick, Bellmore, and Wantagh.

AACD-Accredited Care in Massapequa, NY

January 2, 2013

Here at South Shore Dental Care in Massapequa, we’ve got big news to share with our patients. Dr. Dory Stutman has passed the last clinical exam needed to become accredited in the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry (the AACD)! While he still has an oral exam to take before his accreditation is made official, this is big news.

What does that mean, exactly?

Accreditation by the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry is an important goal for a cosmetic dentist. For one, it shows that he or she has the skills, expertise, and dedication needed to provide his patients with the best care available. In addition, the AACD provides its members with many opportunities to further their dental education, from conferences to an online journal to several opportunities for virtual learning. In the ever-evolving world of dental techniques and procedures, keeping up-to-date with new information is key. Now, Dr. Stutman will have new and more easily available resources open to him, allowing him to continually update his service for you, his patients.

Plus, it isn’t an easy group to become a part of, by any means. In all of Long Island, only three other dentists besides Dr. Stutman are AACD accredited, out of well over 500 practices in business today. In Nassau county, that number narrows down to only one other dentist. Pretty impressive, right?

Congratulations to Dr. Stutman for his accomplishment! Here at South Shore Dental Care in Massapequa, we’d like to remind you that we offer expert cosmetic dental services along with top-notch orthodontic treatment. With the husband-wife team of Drs. Dory and Khalida Stutman, patients will have essentially two dentists consulting on their treatment, resulting in a quicker turnaround time for treatments such as veneers, enamel shaping, and bonding.

We’re ready to bring a smile to your face! Call our office today to schedule your consultation appointment. In addition to Massapequa, we also serve patients from Long Island, Merrick, Bellmore, and Wantagh.

A Comfortable, Convenient Alternative to Traditional Braces with Invisalign

July 27, 2012

While traditional braces may be exactly what some patients need, they can be an obstacle for others who are worried about spending over a year behind metal brackets and wires. That’s why South Shore Dental Care offers Invisalign clear braces. With Invisalign, patients from Massapequa and beyond can achieve a straighter, more dazzling smile in less time. What’s more, treatment with Invisalign comes with three great benefits.

The Benefits of Invisalign Clear Braces

Three words can used to describe orthodontic treatment with Invisalignremovable, comfortable, and attractive.

Let’s start with that last word—attractive—first. Because Invisalign uses clear aligners instead of metal brackets and wires, you can enjoy greater discretion than you can with traditional braces. Instead of drawing attention to your teeth, you can work towards your goal of a straighter smile without anyone but you and your doctor at South Shore Dental Care knowing about your treatment.

Because Invisalign uses custom-made aligners instead of brackets and wires, orthodontic treatment with Invisalign is also more comfortable. There’s nothing to tighten, and because your aligners are made from smooth plastic, you don’t have to worry about them irritating the inside of your mouth and gums, reducing any discomfort you might experience.

And lastly, but certainly not least, Invisalign’s clear aligners are removable. That means you can take them about to eat, and to brush and floss. As a result, you never have to give up on your favorite foods, and you can also keep your teeth and gums cleaner than you can with traditional braces, which can easily trap food and contribute to problems with tooth decay and gum disease.

Do you want to learn more about orthodontic treatment with Invisalign? Our doctors at South Shore Dental Care are ready to answer your questions. Call our office today to schedule your consultation appointment. Dr. Dory Stutman and Dr. Khalida Stutman serve patients from Long Island, Merrick, Bellmore, and Wantagh.
