So, you guys have heard of that phrase "you don't know a good thing until its gone," right? Well I…read moresortof experienced that this week... You see, usually I plan a visit upstate in the early spring - visit family/friends, get my teeth cleaned with my fav dentist, have my hair cut by my fav long-time stylist, visit Wegmans, etc - but b/c of scheduling conflicts I'm not going to be able to make the trip this month. Soooo seeing as how I was at my 6-month mark I made an appointment with a dentist in NYC. After I left the appointment all I could think about was Clay Dental Care, and how much I missed them! I've been going to CDC since I was a kid and in 20-something years I don't have a single complaint. Why are they so awesome? Here are a few reasons: - The Dr's, the hygienists, the assistants - all of them are seriously the nicest people. They've got hundreds of patients and each and every person in the building remembers my name, and always asks how my Hubs and life in NYC is, so nice! - The place is so clean and up-to-date too. This is a team of people who care about where they work and making patients comfortable. TV & magazines in the comfy waiting room, all of the exam rooms are decorated with items showing off each dr/hygienists personality, there's XM radio playing smooth tunes. - The staff is great about explaining everything they're doing and they take their time - whether it's xrays, getting rid of that tarter buildup or shinning everything up. - There's an assortment of toothpaste flavors available for your cleaning. Don't be ashamed to ask for bubble gum! :-) - Not only do I get a toothbrush when I'm done - but toothpaste and floss and sometimes mouth wash. Once I was given a tooth brushing timer, which I still use occasionally! Did you guys know you're supposed to brush for 2 minutes!? It's true. I really really missed CDC this week... my next cleaning should be in about 6 months and I'm going to start planning my trip upstate now. I'd absolutely travel 250+ miles to get my teeth checked here. For those in central NY looking for a dentist - consider giving Clay Dental Care a call. They are seriously the best!

I can't remember how we found Michelle and her folks, but we have been with them for I believe 10…read moreor 11 years now. This is a small office with just her as the dentist and 3 other folks (hygenist, tech, & receptionist). However, with that comes a sense that we know all of them and they know us and our kids. My wife, I, and both of our kids go here. They have been great! My wife has had VERY bad experiences with dentists in the past and the folks here have made her 100% comfortable and walked her through everything. My kids love going to the dentist. :-) It is just basic dental services, but she have other docs that she can refer you to for any major surgical stuff.

Best dentist I've ever had!…read more Before your appointment: they send out email reminders 2 week before, 1 week before, 1day before, and the morning of your appointment. They also call to confirm your appointment as well. Waiting for your appointment: I have never waited more than five minutes for my appointment. They have never made me wait and I have always been able to speak to the woman behind the counter the moment I walk in. The waiting room is pretty and well kept. During your appointment: Everything is digital and they have computer screens to show you all the images of your teeth that they are looking at! They remember you and are polite and kind and make small talk, which is nice. Everything is to high tech and spotlessly clean. After your appointment: They give you a folder with your teeth X-ray in it for any specialist you want to go to and give you a goodie bag with Toothbrush and toothpaste and floss in it! I love going here and they are by far the best dentist business I have ever been to!

He is extremely gentle and is concerned about ensuring you experience no pain. I have had multiple root canals with him and have never felt a thing other than the initial nova caine shots which are minimal because they use a topical first as well. I've referred many people here in the past. Great prices when I had to pay out of pocket or use Care Credit. Only complaint is he sometimes leaves for a month if the year to go do charity around the world, and causes me to delay appointments. But that's not a complaint, he is truly a great guy and takes care of my entire family.
