Diagnostic

• Dental Examination
  Nothing but praise for this office! I was not yet a patient and I called with a problem. They got me right in. Turns out my problem was bigger than I even realized. But, Dr Austein was awesome and explained everything and all of my options. I loved his honesty in suggesting I also see any endodontist. It's really great knowing that they work closely together. Who in their right mind looks forward to hing back to the dentist to get their cavity filled?! This girl right here. I'm looking forward to going back to this office to have my filing finished up. And I look forward to netting a long term patient here. From my very first call, the office was very professional and welcoming. And on top of that, they offer days where they do dental exams for kids who would not otherwise have access to dental exams. I love when people give back to their community. Thank you, West Ridgewood Dental!
• X-rays
  We use the theory of ALARA (As Low As Reasonably Achievable) when we set our standards for the use of x-rays. With our digital x-rays we have reduced the amount of radiation tremendously because our radiographic sensors are so sensitive to the exposure. Our digital x-rays have instant results. With our system we have the capability to digitally confirm when there is a cavity. This allows us to easily interpret and teach our patients exactly what we are seeing on our digital radiographs.
• Oral Cancer Screening
  Routine dental cleanings and dental exams are an important part of preventive health care. During your dental visit you will have a thorough cleaning and examination by the hygienist and the dentist respectively. After your teeth are cleaned, we will be checking your head, neck and mouth for current or future issues. Outside of the mouth we will be looking for abnormalities, swellings, and TMJ issues. Inside the mouth we will be looking for cavities, early detection of wisdom tooth problems, gum disease, abnormal soft tissue areas and do an oral cancer screening during every exam. A dental exam occasionally may also include dental X-rays (radiographs) or other diagnostic procedures when needed.

Restorative

• Fillings
  These are all phrases that describe the same dental technique of using white fillings as bonding. This is a conservative way to treat cavities, or repair slightly chipped, discolored, or crooked teeth. The filling “bonds” to your tooth, and because we have dozens of tooth-colored shades, we will perfectly match the appearance of your natural teeth. Tooth bonding can also be used for teeth fillings instead of silver amalgam fillings. Many patients prefer bonded fillings because the white color is much less noticeable than the silver amalgam fillings. Dental Bondings can be used on front and back teeth.

• Bone Grafting
  Bone Grafting: Occasionally, the area where the dental implants is needed may not have sufficient bone quantity or quality to support the implants. Grafting will be planned based on your specific needs. When a tooth needs to be removed or has been missing for a long time, it is not uncommon to have lost significant bone in these areas. In these cases, various types of bone grafting can be done at the same time the tooth is removed and/or implant is placed.

Orthodontics

• Invisalign Orthodontics
  My passion for dentistry stemmed from my own early dental experiences. I obtained my B.S. in Biology as a Presidential Scholar from the University at Albany. After graduating with honors, Magna Cum Laude, I obtained my Doctor of Dental Medicine from the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey, where I was President of my graduating class. I was selected to be a member of Gamma Pi Delta, a Prosthodontic Honor Society and graduated with Dean's list recognition. I completed a General Practice Residency from Hackensack University Medical Center (HUMC), where I am still a volunteer dental attending for the current dental residents. I have completed an additional postgraduate residency in dental implantology and I am a certified 1 and 2 Invisalign dental provider.
