Dental365 Among The Safest Dental Practices

New Hyde Park, NY – Dental365, the largest and fastest growing dental practice in the Northeast has been open for patients throughout the COVID-19 pandemic in office locations throughout the New York Metropolitan Area.

While their offices have always been among the safest places to be in terms of cleanliness and sanitization, they continue to be diligent with strict screening measures and stringent infection control prevention protocols, providing patients and staff members ease of mind during emergency dental visits and procedures.

Their sanitization, infection control protocols and social distancing measures include the following:

  • Allowing patients the option to wait in their vehicles (where applicable) until they are ready to be seen to avoid waiting areas
  • Taking and recording all staff members temperatures prior to each shift, to ensure only healthy personnel are treating patients
  • Taking temperatures and guiding patients to handwashing stations upon entering offices and instructing patients to rinse with peroxide or Listerine prior to treatments
  • Requiring doctors and medical staff to wear personal protective equipment (PPE) at all times
  • Thoroughly and regularly cleaning all surfaces in offices that can be exposed to infection between patients
  • Requiring symptomatic patients to reschedule appointments to later dates

In addition, Dental365 offices have large and wide-open offices, with plenty of exam rooms where patients and staff members are comfortable practicing social distancing. These protocols result in the Dental365 offices being one of the safest spaces for dental treatment. The community has shown their appreciation for having safe offices to visit for emergency dental treatments and procedures during the Coronavirus pandemic. One patient writes, “I had the misfortune of needing emergency dental work during COVID-19…Everything was clean and following all COVID-19 safety precautions. My exam was thorough, and the solution took me out of pain. This won’t be my last visit. They are wonderful.”

Dental365 is a full-service family dental practice with locations throughout the New York Metropolitan Area and Connecticut. Their goal is to serve the communities they are in with the latest technology in oral healthcare and wellness.

Dental365 Provides Free Care to Veterans – Gives opportunity of a lifetime to U.S Navy Veteran

New Hyde Park, NY –  In celebration of Veterans Day, Dental365 hosted its 3rd Annual Day of Free Dentistry for All Veterans on Sunday, November 10th. The event which took place from 9am-2pm welcomed over 70 men and women veterans of the United States Armed Forces.

Dental365 offices—Oceanside and Mount Sinai in Long Island and Galloway Dental, a Dental365 company in Warwick, NY participated in the annual event. Over 25 dedicated employees volunteered their time as a way to show their own thanks and appreciation for our nation’s heroes.

Among the many veterans who received free dental care was U.S Navy Veteran Matt Levine. His incredibly inspiring story led to the decision of Dental365 to honor this special veteran with a once in a lifetime opportunity—a full mouth restoration provided through free care from Dental365.

Before coming to the United States, Mr. Levine was abandoned as a child in Greece. Thankfully, he found his way to a loving home in the United States, and later as a young man enlisted in the U.S Navy as a cook. He frequently entertained his fellow sailors through his love of music and playing the guitar.

Mr. Levine faced even greater hardship later in life with the tragic murder of his son, the suicide of his wife that followed and his own battle with cancer. However, despite these struggles he maintains an optimistic view of life and continues to place the needs of others ahead of his own. Through his passion for music, this amazing veteran has raised over $20,000 for his fellow veterans and veteran causes.

With great thanks to this American hero, Dental365 began the first of many appointments to restore Mr. Levine’s smile and good health. Leading his care is highly regarded cosmetic dentist, Dr. Ira Koeppel of Koeppel Dental Group – A Dental365 Company. Dr. Koeppel saw Mr. Levine for the first of many appointments on Sunday at the Mount Sinai office.

Military veterans like Matt Levine face major roadblocks in access to dental care. Only 15% of the 20 million veterans in the United States qualify for Veteran Administration dental benefits.

Veterans are deemed ineligible for coverage unless they are 100% disabled, have a service-related dental injury or were a prisoner of war. Without access to adequate dental care our nation’s heroes are facing serious, even life-threatening medical conditions.

The military veterans who visited Dental365 on Sunday were incredibly grateful to the company for their gracious hospitality. One patient said, “Today I had the best experience I have ever had in a dentist’s office. Their special care for veterans today was over the top…. As a vet who was proud to serve, it was good to see how Dental365 staff is willing to give up their Sunday to help veterans and show how they care.”

“It’s incredibly humbling to be given the opportunity to give back to the extraordinary men and women who have served this country. I am grateful to these veterans as well as to the Dental365 team who volunteered their time to serve them,” said Scott Asnis, DDS, Founder & CEO of Dental365.

Dental365 was founded on the concept of providing convenient and affordable dental care for the entire family. Through its state-of-the-art facilities it offers modern dentistry services from expertly trained specialists and general dentistry practitioners. Dental365 offices have convenient hours, including nights and weekends, accept walk-ins and offer affordable care and financing options.
