Frequently Asked Questions

When you regularly visit our office for general family dentistry care, the more likely we will be able to catch small problems before they become big ones, making treatments more effective.

Dental problems have to start somewhere, and they usually start very small, making them hard to detect. Our Massapequa Park dental office uses DIAGNOdent laser cavity detection to find cavities during their earliest stage, way before you could possibly see or feel them yourself. We also use ViziLite to screen for oral cancer, a very serious health problem that affects nearly 50,000 Americans every year that is almost imperceptible at first. Routine visits make sure small problems never turn into big ones.

Using CEREC technology, we can create custom crowns, inlays, and onlays in about an hour. This means that in just one visit, you can get a custom-made, all-white, reliable restoration. No temporary. No follow-up visit. It’s that simple.

Dental implants are an alternative to tooth replacement as opposed to bridges, partials, or full dentures. They look, feel, and function just like natural teeth because of a titanium anchor that attaches them directly to the jawbone. At South Shore Dental Care, we can both place and restore your dental implants. The restorations will match your natural teeth and blend seamlessly with your smile.

The life of a dental implant depends on your age, oral health status, and personal hygiene. With proper care, they can easily last a lifetime in most cases.
