We always have a great experience at The Dentists Office of the Hudson Valley. They are wonderful with adults and my children and have been very accommodating in emergency situations.

Dr. Bryan made me feel relaxed, I wasn’t scared. It was the first time I had novocaine and afterward, I said:”It wasn’t bad at all.” I had an abscess where an adult tooth was trying to come through, so added on to my visit, I had that tooth pulled. Dr. Bryan had the tooth out before I even knew it.

My son saw Dr. Bryan Hinkle for a filling and what turned out to be an abscess due to his adult tooth coming in. Dr. Bryan was awesome in explaining everything to my son during the entire procedure. He explained the need to pull the baby tooth and for novocaine. It was the first time my son had novocaine and afterward, he said: “this was no big deal mom.” Dr. Bryan certainly knows how…

I am so happy with my crowns. Went in today to have the permanent crowns put in. They fit in my mouth perfectly. They didn’t even need to be adjusted. The bite is just like my original teeth. I can’t express my joy of finally having my teeth in place. It was a long road and 3 root canals to get to today. These teeth feel just like they were meant to be there. Thank you so much.
Mary B.
Shanna the Hygienist was great!!! She walked me through the process and made the cleaning experience painless. When the dentist came in he addressed his concerns which weren’t major but discussed options with me that he would recommend. Which I thought it was great. Overall I feel like this is such a great practice and would highly recommend this practice!
Stephanie M.
Going to the Dentist was never top on my list. Since I started going here I have developed a whole new appreciation.

Thank you all for making my experience easier than I ever expected.
