5. Our dental assistants work hand-in-hand with the doctors they assist, so procedures go smoothly and quickly. We try to limit the time you spend in the chair, by streamlining the way our dental team works while treating you. Click Here

6. Record keeping is serious business at The Dentists' Office. Your dental records provide us with an ongoing history of your care. The records are easily accessible to our front desk staff. Click Here

7. It's important to us that our patients develop a relationship with the trained professionals on our staff. Some treatment, like orthodontics, may go on over a period of months. Whether yours is a short, routine visit, or part of a series of visits, we look forward to getting to know you and serving you. Click Here
8. Our office is arranged in a patient-friendly format. Patients have the privacy which they deserve, while the doctors and staff have all the equipment and materials they need, at hand. Click Here

9. Infection Control is of primary concern to us at Dentists' Office of the Hudson Valley. We meet and exceed OSHA regulations and standards. Much of the work of customizing and fine-tuning bridges and crowns is done in our well-equipped labs. Click Here

10. We use the most modern equipment to ensure the highest quality health standards. You have no need to fear x-rays, because we take every precaution to ensure your safety.  We use "state of the art" Digital Xray equipment which uses a fraction of the power of conventional Xray machines.  There is also less of a wait time as there is no film to process.  The use a chemicals to develop the film is obsolete.  Click Here

11. We try not to use the term "Waiting Room," because of its negative implications. We prefer the term "Reception Area." It is here, once you have checked in with the receptionist that you can spend a few moments relaxing, reading our most current newsletter, paging through a selection of magazines, or just watching the traffic go by.  You can now also bring in your laptop and "surf" the internet as we offer free wireless internet access to our patients.

12. You will almost never get to see this view of our receptionists when you visit Dentists' Office of the Hudson Valley. Instead, you are much more likely to see their smiling faces and hear their pleasant voices as they assist you with your needs. Click Here

13. Our operatories are all bright and cheerful to help make your visit more pleasant. The dental chairs can be adjusted, so that you are in as comfortable a position as possible during your treatment. All the rooms are equipped with the most up-to-date tools and materials.  Monitors allow the patient to watch TV or even see their own Xrays.  Click Here
