Keeping healthy, or fixing a problem?
Most visits are one of two kinds. Both start with Dr. Sayeed explaining what he finds.
Routine care
- A checkup and cleaning, usually every six months
- Digital X-rays when they are due
- Advice on brushing, flossing and diet that suits you
When something hurts or breaks
- Fillings for cavities and small chips
- Root canals and crowns for deeper damage
- Emergency appointments for pain, swelling or a broken tooth
Why one dentist for everything helps
- He knows your history. Dr. Sayeed sees you at every visit, so small changes get noticed early.
- Fewer referrals. Fillings, root canals, crowns, extractions and implants are all done here.
- One place for your records. Your X-rays, notes and insurance details stay together.
- By appointment. Visits are booked ahead, so you aren’t kept waiting.
General dentistry questions
Patients come to us from Kingston, Port Ewen, Lake Katrine, Hurley, Saugerties, Woodstock and across Ulster County.
What does a general dentist do?
A general dentist checks, cleans and repairs teeth, treats gum disease and decay, and replaces missing teeth. They refer you to a specialist only when a problem needs one.
Is a general dentist the same as a family dentist?
Mostly, but family dentists usually see a lot of young children. Kingston Smiles NY mainly sees adults and teens aged 15 and over.
Do you take new patients?
Yes. Request an appointment or call 845-336-5855. Read what to expect at your first visit.
