Dental Surgery & Esthetics

Another option on the south edge of Hicksville is Dental Surgery & Esthetics. The clinic sits in a low-rise strip off S Oyster Bay Road, sharing the building with a few other health offices at 400 S Oyster Bay Rd # 204, Hicksville, NY 11801. It’s the kind of place you might drive past on the way to the mall and not think twice about—until you need a crown or a cleaning.

They handle the usual dental work—fillings, extractions, root canals—and also offer veneers, implants, and teeth whitening. The office isn’t flashy, just functional, which is what you want when you’re dealing with oral surgery. No one goes to a dentist for the ambiance; they go because the drill and the needle are necessary evils. If you’re scheduling something more involved than a check-up, it’s worth asking whether sedation is an option.

Directions are straightforward if you plug the address into your map. To book an appointment or ask about procedures, call (516) 595-7120. Hicksville’s mix of chain stores and local offices means you can combine the visit with errands, which is about as exciting as dental care gets.
