Dr. Barry Hecht

Dental care in Long Island City doesn’t always come with the noise and rush of Midtown, which is why some residents prefer the quieter stretch near Queens Plaza. Dr. Barry Hecht operates from a unit just off the main avenue, where the sidewalks slow down and the buildings feel more like neighborhoods than transit hubs. The practice sits at 31-00 47th Ave Unit 12, a low-rise address that blends into the block without fanfare.

Routine cleanings, fillings, and emergency visits are the kind of work that keeps a local dentist’s schedule full. Patients who need crowns, bridges, or simple extractions can book time here without the trek to Manhattan. The office also handles pediatric check-ups, so families in the area have one less reason to cross the river. When a toothache flares up on a Saturday, knowing there’s a nearby option can make the difference between waiting it out and getting it seen.

Those who want to schedule an appointment or ask about insurance can call 718-784-5775 during weekday hours. The number connects directly to the front desk, where someone answers questions about coverage, timing, and what to expect before the first visit. No automated menus, just a voice on the other end to steer the conversation.

Directions are straightforward—plug the address into any map app or follow the link to the Google Maps listing for real-time transit updates. The building is a short walk from the 7 train and several bus lines, so even those without a car can reach it without hassle. Once there, the entrance is easy to spot from the sidewalk.
