At Shine Dental, new patients are not just visitors but valued members of our dental family. When something goes wrong with your teeth, that means someone answers the phone, listens, and gives you a straight answer about today.

Dental emergencies do not politely wait for a Saturday. The usual bind for a Plainview commuter is that the problem starts on a Tuesday, the nearest office closes at five, and you end up burning a personal day for something that takes forty minutes.

We hold room in our schedule every weekday morning for urgent cases, and we are open until 7pm on Mondays and Wednesdays. The drive north is ten minutes on ordinary roads. Between the two, most of our Plainview patients get seen without touching their vacation time.

Severe toothache? Broken or knocked-out tooth? A crown that came off? Call 516-348-8500 as early in the day as you can, describe what happened, and our front desk will tell you honestly whether we can fit you in today. Walk-ins are welcome during business hours, and emergency patients come ahead of routine appointments.

One thing that sets us apart: our dental laboratory is inside the practice. A lost crown, a cracked denture or a broken bridge is frequently repaired while you are here, instead of being mailed to an outside lab and turned into a second appointment two weeks later.

Your pain does not have to wait until the weekend.

From the Old Country Road end of Plainview, Route 107 north to Jericho Turnpike is usually quicker than cutting across on local streets, particularly at school pick-up times.

Questions from Plainview patients

What is your latest emergency appointment?

7pm on Mondays and Wednesdays, 6pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Call as early in the day as you can and we will fit you into the urgent time we hold each morning.

Do I need to be an existing patient?

No. Emergency visits are open to everyone. If you have a regular dentist we will treat the immediate problem and send them our notes.

Can a broken crown be fixed in one visit?

Very often, because our lab is here in the building. Call and describe what happened and we will give you a realistic answer 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.
