Dr. Loren R. Goldstein, DDS

People looking for dental care east of the LIRR tracks often head toward Davison Avenue, where this one-stop office has quietly stayed put since the late Eighties. Upstairs from a strip of real-estate agencies and convenience stores, Dr. Loren R. Goldstein, DDS keeps residents smiling with cleanings, fillings, crowns and the occasional extraction without fanfare.

To reach the second-floor suite, climb a single flight of stairs at 18 Davison Ave, Oceanside, NY 11572; the building sits kitty-corner to a Mobil station and across from a four-story brick walk-up full of medical tenants. Brochures by the door list implants, root canals and pediatric exams beside whitening consultations and night guards for bruxism.

Call before dropping by—the front desk can pencil you in for a morning hygiene visit or a post-lunch implant consult. They’ll confirm your insurance over the phone, then text a reminder the day before. Word moves fast once patients realize they’re only ten minutes from the Oceanside LIRR station.

Slide the address into your preferred maps listing and the blue dot lands right on the front door; street parking is usually plentiful after 9 a.m. on weekdays.
