1. Advanced Training

For the very best care, you want to make sure your dentist has benefitted from advanced training in their field. Dr. Erin Page is committed to continuing education and an active member in several professional organizations, including the American Academy of Facial Esthetics AAFE, the American Dental Association ADA, and the NYS Dental Association NYSDA. Dr. Page holds an additional license to administer intravenous IV conscious sedation and are certified in advanced cardiac life support ACLS.     

2. Sedation Options

If the thought of visiting the dentist makes you feel anxious or afraid, you will need to find one who offers a full suite of sedation options. At Capital Smiles, you can have your needs taken care of in one well-managed appointment choosing from nitrous oxide sedation, oral sedation, or even IV sedation.

3. A Kind and Caring Team

You’re not just visiting with the dentists themselves when you have a dental appointment. You want to make sure that you feel at home with a warm, friendly staff of hygienists, assistants, office managers, and other dental professionals. Our team goes above and beyond to make you feel right at home!

4. Multitude of Treatment Options

Your life gets easier when you can have all your dental needs met from the comfort of one office. At Capital Smiles, we offer a full range of treatment options, from the placement and restoration of dental implants to Invisalign, full smile makeovers, family checkups and cleanings, and everything in between.

5. Flexible Payment Options

Affordable dentistry means having flexible payment options. We make the process easy by pre-determining any out-of-pocket costs prior to treatment — so there are never any surprises. For patients without dental insurance, we work with 3 creative financing groups so you can make payments at the pace that suits your budget best.

6. Whole-Body Approach

Your mouth does not exist in a vacuum — and your teeth and gums can greatly affect or be affected by your overall health.  Dr. Page look not only at how your oral health impacts your entire body, but also at systemic causes of issues and inflammation, like TMJ and sleep apnea. These conditions can cause dental issues or at the very least more bacteria and inflammation — and they need to be identified and controlled as promptly as possible. The doctors make use of their advanced training to provide smart solutions for dental problems, like the use of BOTOX for TMJ.

7. State-of-the-Art Technology

Dental technology is constantly changing, and you want to make sure that your dentist stays on top of the game by regularly investing in the right tools and materials. Capital Smiles is pleased to provide comfortable, quality dental care that stands the test of time using tools like digital X-rays, the intraoral camera, digital impressions, air abrasion for painlessly treating small cavities, and more.
