At Shine Dental, new patients are not just visitors but valued members of our dental family. We will also tell you honestly when somewhere closer makes more sense.

West Hills is closer to Huntington and Melville than to us, and for a straightforward emergency you should probably use one of those. That is the honest answer.

The exception is anything needing laboratory work — a lost crown, a failed bridge, a cracked denture. Those normally go out to a commercial lab and come back two weeks later. Ours is in the building with four full-time technicians, so the repair frequently happens during the same visit. That is when seventeen minutes stops being a long drive.

We hold urgent time in the schedule every weekday morning. Call 516-348-8500, describe what happened, and we will give you a straight answer about today.

Route 110 through the Melville office corridor slows noticeably between 8 and 9 in the morning and around 5 in the evening.

Questions from West Hills patients

Should I come to you or somewhere closer?

For simple problems, closer. For anything needing lab work, the on-site lab is the reason people make this drive.

Do you keep same-day slots?

Every weekday morning. Calling early makes the difference.

How bad is Route 110 at rush hour?

It slows through the Melville corridor around 8 to 9 in the morning and 5 in the evening.

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.
