To maintain optimal oral health, it is important to visit the dentist regularly- not just when something goes wrong. Unfortunately, many patients are apprehensive about attending dental appointments and forego consistent care simply to avoid discomfort. At Garden City Smiles, we strive to make every visit to our office a pleasant experience for our patients, so they will look forward to caring for their teeth. Offering a variety of advanced general dentistry treatments, Dr. Louis Buono helps patients throughout Long Island feel good about their smile, and their dental care.

Family Care

Dr. Buono and his team are experienced at treating patients of all ages, including children as young as 3 years old. We are sensitive to children’s needs and provide gentle, yet effective treatment so children can form positive ideas about dental care from the start. We understand that your family’s health is important to you, and do everything to make our patients feel safe and comfortable during each appointment.

Preventative Care

Dr. Buono believes that an educated patient is the healthiest patient. He educates patients on the best oral health practices, and provides them with the tools and products to sustain their oral health. This includes recommending toothpastes and mouthwashes, and notifying patients about proper brushing and flossing techniques.

Sealants

One of the best ways to prevent extensive tooth decay is to stop it before it starts. Dental sealants are a coating placed on the tooth surface to defend against plaque and other bacteria. Sealants can be applied quickly and with no discomfort to the patient.

Professional Cleanings

In addition to daily brushing and flossing, routine in-office cleanings can be extremely beneficial. Dr. Buono’s teeth cleanings are thorough and can remove plaque buildup and bacteria that regular care may have missed. This helps patients feel clean and refreshed, and prevents the onset of gum disease and other oral health problems. 

Periodontal Care

Healthy gums provide the foundation for a vibrant, healthy smile. With thorough preventative care and cleanings, Dr. Buono can help patients preserve the health of their gums and prevent gum disease. We also use laser therapy at Garden City Smiles to gently disinfect the gums and prevent the progression of disease.
