- Do you treat all ages?
- Our youngest patient is two. The oldest is 100. How’s that for “all ages?”
- Is Nicosia Dental accepting new patients?
- The practice is growing and always welcomes new patients. For information simply call the office at 585.422.6600.
- How “green is your office?”
- We’ve moved toward digital radiographs (digital X-rays) that provide instant images with 90% less radiation and no chemicals. Our ultimate goal is a paperless office.
- Can I get a crown in one visit?
- Yes. Veneers, too. With our CEREC® CAD/CAM system, we can make crowns, veneers, and other enhancements right in our on-site lab. No need to send them “out” and make you return for a second visit.
- Are your sealants harmful?”
- Absolutely not. There are concerns regarding the safety of dental sealants used to fill the deep grooves in some teeth in children. The concern is over Bisphenol A (BPA) which has been linked to the disruption of endocrine function. Nicosia Dental has never used a sealant containing BPA.
- How many years have you been in business?

- Will you have a special every month?
- Yes, our plan is to offer a special or a giveaway every month. Example: For the month of June — the big wedding month — we whiten the teeth of both the future bride and groom for one price.
