Family Dentist FAQs

Your Family Dentist Questions, Answered

What's the difference between a family dentist and a general dentist?

Both take care of your everyday dental needs, like checkups, cleanings and treatment when something goes wrong. A family dentist also sees kids, so everyone can go to the same office. Dr. Cipriano is a general dentist in Staten Island who sees the whole family.

How often should I get a dental checkup and cleaning?

We recommend a checkup and cleaning at least twice a year. If you have ongoing gum problems or a higher risk of gum disease, Dr. Cipriano may suggest coming in more often. A standard cleaning at our Staten Island office takes about 30 minutes to an hour.

Do you see kids at your Staten Island dental office?

Yes. Dr. Cipriano sees kids, and regular cleanings matter for them too. If you don't have dental insurance, each child 16 or younger who joins the Healthy Smiles Membership Plan gets $50 off.

How much is a dentist visit without insurance in Staten Island?

It depends on the care you need, so call (718) 948-1600 to ask about yours. If you don't have insurance, our membership plan is $349 a year and includes two cleanings with X-rays and 10% off dental treatments.

Can I get a same-day emergency dentist appointment in Staten Island?

Call (718) 948-1600 as soon as it happens. We aim for same-day visits for tooth pain, broken teeth and knocked-out teeth during our office hours. We're not open 24 hours. Call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room if you have trouble breathing or swallowing, or swelling that spreads to your eye or neck. Do the same for bleeding that won't stop or a hard hit to the head or jaw.

Do I need my wisdom teeth removed?

Not always. Wisdom teeth that crowd your other teeth, are hard to clean or hurt because they're stuck under the gum often need to come out. Dr. Cipriano checks yours at a visit and explains your options for wisdom tooth removal in Staten Island.
