Meet Dr. Ibrahim Sayeed, DDS
Dr. Ibrahim Sayeed is the dentist at Kingston Smiles NY, at 1105 Locust Street in Kingston. He sees every patient himself, from routine checkups to root canals, crowns and dental implants.
His approach is simple: keep your natural teeth wherever possible, explain what he finds in plain language, and only recommend treatment that genuinely helps. Many patients come to him after years away from a dentist, and he starts from where you are, without judgment.

What to expect from Dr. Sayeed
Your natural teeth first
He repairs and protects the teeth you have before suggesting anything is replaced, and tells you honestly when a tooth can’t be saved.
Clear explanations
You see your X-rays and scans, hear what each option involves and what it costs, and decide without pressure.
No judgment
Whether it’s been six months or six years, he works out a plan from where you are, at a pace that suits you.
Nervous, or it’s been a while?
Many of Dr. Sayeed’s patients arrive anxious, or after years without a checkup. Nobody is lectured about the past: the first visit is about understanding where things stand and what matters most to you.
- Talk first. Tell him what worries you before anything starts, and agree a signal to pause.
- Every step explained. He tells you what he’s about to do, and how it should feel, before he does it.
- Numbing done properly. Treatment starts only when the area is fully numb.
- One step at a time. If there’s a lot to do, the plan is split into visits you’re comfortable with.
Training and memberships
Dr. Sayeed keeps up with new techniques through regular continuing education, with hundreds of hours of courses in dental implants.
Outside the practice he volunteers at community dental programs in the Hudson Valley and spends time with his family. He also writes the answers in the Kingston Smiles journal, so the advice there is his own.

Such an amazing family practice with such a friendly and welcoming staff. I had such a great experience here, with a helpful tech doing my x-rays (literally no gagging which is unheard of for me), the doctor was so gentle in my cleaning, and he even gave me a super quick filling same day as he heard that I would be traveling back to college within the week. This is truly the greatest dental experience I have ever had. Reception is incredibly sweet, and such beautifully kind people!

Luxurious dental office without the luxury prices. I have not seen a dental office like this in the area. I recently bought their in house product and it has been working very well for me. Thank you Dr. Sayeed and his staff for taking such good care of my dental needs 🙏🏾
