Dr. Charles Melton

Dentistry in the North Fork isn’t just about routine cleanings—it’s often tied to the rhythm of a community where seasonal residents and year-round locals need consistent care. Dr. Charles Melton operates a dental practice in Mattituck, a village better known for its vineyards and farm stands than its professional services. The office sits at 7905 Main Rd, a stretch where the road widens just enough to suggest you’re still in town, even as the surrounding landscape leans rural. Unlike practices tucked into strip malls or medical plazas, this one holds its space on a road that’s equal parts functional and scenic, depending on the time of year.

General dentistry here covers the expected—exams, fillings, crowns—without the frills of a spa-like experience or the impersonal efficiency of a chain clinic. Questions about treatment options or insurance details are presumably handled over the phone at (631) 298-2000, though the real test of accessibility might be whether they pick up during harvest season, when half the town seems to be working overtime. For those mapping out the drive, the directions place it just east of the junction where Main Road meets Sound Avenue, which means you’ll pass at least two farm stands on the way. That’s not a selling point—just a fact of life in Mattituck.
