Lab on siteCrowns and dentures finished here, often in a day
At Shine Dental, new patients are not just visitors but valued members of our dental family. When you are in pain at your desk, that means someone picks up, listens, and tells you honestly about today.
If you work in the Broadhollow Road corridor, a dental emergency during the day is an awkward thing to solve. Leaving the office for a practice near home usually means a northbound run into the worst of the 110, and by then the day is gone.
Coming south to us runs against that flow. We hold urgent time in our schedule every weekday morning and stay open until 7pm on Mondays and Wednesdays, so a problem that starts at your desk can often be dealt with the same day without writing off the afternoon.
Severe toothache? Broken tooth? A crown that came off at lunch? Call 516-348-8500, describe what happened and when it started, and our front desk will give you a straight answer about being seen today. Walk-ins are welcome during business hours.
Our dental laboratory is inside the practice with four full-time technicians. A lost crown, a cracked denture or a broken bridge is frequently repaired while you are here, rather than mailed to an outside lab and turned into a second appointment two weeks later.
Your pain does not have to wait for the weekend.
A lunchtime slot is often the easiest for corridor workers, and the midday run on the 110 is far lighter than either commute.

Planning, placement and the final crown handled in-house, so one team is accountable for how the tooth looks and bites.

Invisalign in MelvilleQuestions from Melville patients
I work in Melville rather than living there — can I still come?
Of course. For a lot of our Melville patients the drive from the desk is shorter than the drive from home, and a lunchtime slot is often the easiest thing to book.
How bad is Route 110 at five o'clock?
Northbound is the congested direction. Heading south to us runs against it, which is why an after-work appointment works better than people expect.
Can a crown be re-cemented in one visit?
Very often, because our lab is here in the building. Call and describe what happened and we will tell you before you drive over.
Which insurance plans do you accept?
We accept most major PPO plans and file claims for you. Because coverage varies by employer, call with your card in hand and we will verify your benefits and explain costs before anything is scheduled.
Can you see me today if I am in pain?
Call as early in the day as you can. We hold room for urgent visits, and a broken tooth, lost crown, swelling or sharp pain gets priority.
I already have a dentist. What is involved in switching?
Give us the name of your current practice and we will request your chart and recent X-rays so you are not paying for duplicate imaging. Your first visit is an exam, a conversation about what you want fixed, and a written plan.
