I honestly don't remember the last time I went to a dentist. I did some research and came across Dr. Rametra. I decided to book an appointment. I was really grateful that they had weekend hours because I have a very full work schedule during the week, which does not leave much room for appointments. The office manager did a great job helping me schedule my appointment. Dr. Rametra and her staff are very personable and professional. Going in, I knew that I had a few cavities that would need to be dealt with. I also knew that I wanted to discuss the possibility of braces. Today is my first day with braces, and I am greatly anticipating the final results. I am incredibly impressed with how painless and efficient the process was. I thoroughly trust Dr. Rametra and feel very lucky to have found this practice. If you are looking for affordable dental care, you will find great service from Dr. Rametra.

Dr. Rametra performed two root canals for me. I’d had negative experiences with other dentists, so I initially was dreading my first appointment. The rest of the staff assured me that root canals with Dr. Rametra are painless. I was very skeptical, but they were right! The procedure didn’t hurt at all during the process. I’m thankful that I found Dr. Rametra through online reviews. I love that they remind you before your appointment. I’ve never really liked dentists, but I’ve now figured out that I hated my previous dentists. Dr. Rametra truly cares for her patients and does an impeccable job. Thank you Dr. Rametra and everyone on staff who helped put me at ease. I’m already starting to refer my friends.

I’ve been a patient of Dr. Rametra for multiple years. I highly recommend her practice. The entire staff is very personable. They sincerely care about their patients. It doesn’t matter if you’re going in for braces, a wisdom tooth extraction, or a cleaning, Dr. Rametra has a magic, gentle touch. Even better, though, is the fact that the payment process is as painless as the procedures themselves. I appreciated the effort his staff took to help me understand my insurance and payment plan. The whole process was really easy. I paid significantly less than I thought I would have to. Other notes: -The parking is convenient. -The exam rooms are incredibly clean. -The chairs in the waiting room are comfy, but you don’t sit in them long.

Dr. Rametra and her entire staff are wonderful. They are accommodating, inviting, and kind. It was my first visit, but they acted like I’d been a patient for years. I loved that I didn’t have to wait long. Dr. Rametra makes your trip to the dentist office a positive one. I got a FMD, which was a great, pain-free experience.

Dr. Rametra is easily the best dentist I have ever been to. I was always so anxious going to the dentist, but the staff at Nassau Dental made it a fun experience. I ended up doing the scaling and x-rays on my first appointment. It was a very welcoming experience. The dental assistant spoke to me for a while before Dr. Rametra came in for the exam. Everyone there seems to genuinely care about their patients, and everyone seems to adore Dr. Rametra. I'm looking forward to my next appointment in the coming months.

I located Dr. Rametra online, and I could hardly believe the reviews. How could someone actually like going to the dentist? I decided to give them a try at Nassau Dental, and I'm not disappointed. I went in for a tooth removal, and my nerves were awful. They took the time to reassure me that it was going to be painless. The entire procedure took no time at all, and they were very gentle. The support staff is incredible and personable. Thank you to everyone at this Hempstead, NY dental clinic.

I just finished my filling appointment with Dr. Rametra; she was able to complete my amalgam fillings. I believe she is the most professional and caring dentist I have ever met. She has the kindest staff I have ever met. Everyone in the Nassau Dental clinic is so friendly. I am so grateful that I found this dental practice. I always leave with a massive smile on my face. All of the work they have done on me has been entirely painless. They don't push you into unnecessary procedures either. I feel like she genuinely cares for her patients. If you don't believe me, schedule an appointment and see for yourself.

I stopped by multiple clinics in my area, including an orthodontist and periodontist, and all of them seemed to push extensive work when I didn't feel like my teeth were nearly as bad as they said they were. I came across Nassau Dental in the Hempstead, NY area through a recommendation from a friend. I called their office to set up an appointment, and they went the extra mile to get me in as soon as possible. They made me feel very comfortable and took the time to explain everything thoroughly. We ended up agreeing that the bottom teeth needed braces, and we both seemed to be on the same page. I have been happy with my braces thus far, and I'll be sure to update this review with my future experiences. Dr. Rametra has done wonders for me!

I have tried many dental offices in the Hempstead, NY area, and I think I have found the right one. Dr. Rametra is so personable, punctual, and is just such a great dentist. I kid you not, Dr. Rametra filled multiple teeth, a cleaning, and extracted a tooth in less than half an hour. And the extraction was absolutely painless. Come see them now!

I had two of my wisdom teeth taken out last year, and it was nothing like what I anticipated. The entire procedure was painless, and the extractions only took a few minutes. I came to Dr. Rametra's clinic in Hempstead, NY more anxious than I have ever been, but the staff there at Nassau Dental calmed me down and was extremely personable. Dr. Rametra is very skilled and meticulous at what she does. I trust this clinic with myself and my family. They do an incredible job working with your insurance and making sure it has the least impact on your wallet. I was able to eat dinner that night with some friends. They said it would be painless, and they were correct.

You don't have to keep looking for an incredible dentist. Dr. Rametra at Nassau Dental is the one for you. I had had excellent dentists in the past when I lived in different cities. Unfortunately, I lost my insurance, and I am on Medical. I just left Nassau Dental after having gotten two fillings and extraction, and I felt the need to write this review immediately. When I get my private insurance back, this will still be my dental practice.

I came across an office in Hempstead, NY that recommended a lot of work, but I wanted a second opinion. I am so thankful I found Nassau Dental. I cannot get over the quality of work I received from Dr. Shaifali Rametra. At the other office, I was quoted thousands of dollars of work and told that the work was imperative for my dental health. However, at Nassau Dental, they didn’t try to upsell me. Instead, I got an honest second opinion and walked out of her office with a healthy, white smile. I only paid about $60, much better than my previous quote. Thank you for giving me my smile back!

Dr. Rametra is the dentist for you if you have any phobia of dental offices. Take it from someone that had some of the worst people working on my teeth for years. I ended up with severe anxiety when it came to dentists, which perpetuated a vicious cycle. As a result, I ended up putting me in a very costly situation of crowns, pain, and more root canals than I would like to admit. Dr. Rametra is the best dentist for anyone with anxiety. I just got finished with 3 fillings, and they were all painless. One of them required anesthesia near the front of my mouth, and I felt nothing. Their work is impeccable, and his staff is incredible, and the office is super modern. I am so grateful I found this dental office.

Dr. Rametra is spectacular. My brother and I had our wisdom teeth removed, and the process was quicker and more comfortable than we both expected. I know when we walk into this dental office in Hempstead, NY that we will not get the same quality of care anywhere else. You can tell they really care about their patients, and you can see it in the entire compassionate staff at Nassau Dental. They have a great office accompanied by a good sized parking lot. The building is very well kept and modern. Prices are incredibly reasonable after they go through insurance. They don't ever push something unless its a real priority for your dental health. We have been patients of theirs for a few months now, and I am very thankful to have found this dental practice. Thank you for everything Dr. Rametra and staff.

I highly recommend Dr. Rametra and her staff. I required an emergency root canal, my first, underneath a crown, which was replaced. When I found out I needed a root canal, I was anxious. I’d heard of friends having one and feeling terrible pain. Dr. Rametra promised that I wouldn’t feel any pain, and she delivered. It was efficient and pain-free. I no longer have insurance, so I was worried about the cost. The staff sympathized with me and helped me work out a plan. I went back for the permanent crown installation today and will go back for a cleaning in a couple weeks. Going to Dr. Rametra has renewed my faith in dentists.

My appointment with Dr. Rametra was great. I have neglected to go to the dentist for quite a while due to previous bad experiences, but Dr. Rametra made me feel at home. She said my procedure was going to be painless, and she was correct. She is so personable and meticulous. The staff here at Nassau Dental is spectacular as well. I cannot recommend them highly enough!

This dental office in Hempstead, NY are a do-it-all shop. The office is immaculate, and all of the equipment is top of the line. The staff at Nassau Dental is extraordinarily compassionate and customer service friendly. Dr. Rametra is so personable and has an incredible sense of humor. They deserve every five-star rating on this service. You will not be disappointed with your service here!

Dr. Rametra is just incredible. My child has struggled with pain due to her wisdom teeth. We attempted to get her TMJ issues under control before we approached the wisdom teeth. Due to TMJ, she had problems holding her mouth open for long. Finally, the pain became too much to stand, and I decided to search for a dentist nearby with experience in this matter. I made the appointment, and with our first appointment, we noticed how wonderful her staff is. They were booked that day, but due to the dire situation, they went ahead and scheduled us for that same day. My child was extremely anxious about the extraction. Dr. Rametra consoled her and told her that it would be quick and painless. All four teeth were removed within 11 minutes. I wish we could have found her sooner! I recommend this office in Hempstead, NY to everyone!

Thank goodness I have found a dentist that I absolutely adore. I was terrified to go to the dentist due to some previous horrifying experiences. My fingers felt so heavy typing the number to call, but it was time to act like an adult. From start to finish, the experience was great. The staff that deals with insurance went above and beyond to inform me of my options. The x-ray technician was fun to be around; he made that process fly by. The dental hygienist did an incredible job with our cleaning and answered all of our questions. I ended up getting two extractions and a root canal, and I was terrified. But, Dr. Rametra's chairside manner made it all ease away. I can tell you that I have had more painful cleanings than the experience I had with this root canal. If you need a dentist, come see her!

Dr. Shaifali Rametra is easily the best dentist I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. I have decided to make Nassau Dental in Hempstead, NY as my permanent dentist. I ended up with an abscessed molar, and I was absolutely horrified of getting a root canal if it was needed. The staff as a whole and my dentist eased my anxieties, and I didn't even feel the local anesthesia. If you are looking for a new dentist, call Dr. Rametra. She is very passionate about dentistry and client satisfaction.

A huge thanks to Dr. Rametra and her staff at Nassau Dental, they made my dental experience at their clinic in Hempstead, NY a positive one. Somehow my crown fell off one of my teeth, and the staff here did wonders to help me relax during my dental emergency. If I could give them more stars, I would. I will definitely be back soon!

I had four of my wisdom teeth removed at my appointment today, and the procedure as a whole took about thirty minutes. I was very nervous, but once Dr. Rametra started my fears melted away. I felt a slight pressure at one point, but no pain at all. One of my wisdom teeth took a bit longer due to the structure of the root. They also have a deep cleaning service available. The staff at Nassau Dental is so kind, and they are extremely punctual. The office atmosphere is excellent, and the facilities as a whole are so clean. ----UPDATE---- I removed the gauze after 3-4 hours, and I had no bleeding. I was able to eat a few soft things and then took an NSAID. No swelling yet, no pain either. It’s the second day after the procedure, and I haven’t experienced any soreness, swelling, or pain. Thank you again Dr. Shaifali Rametra!

I am absolutely floored at the service I received from Dr. Rametra at her Hempstead, NY clinic. They extracted all of my wisdom teeth at the same appointment, and I didn’t feel a thing from the local anesthetic to the tooth being removed. After this experience of a referral, I decided to bring all of my dental needs to Nassau Dental. After my first exam, they went ahead and addressed my need for fillings. I ended up needing my wisdom teeth extracted and five total fillings. My recovery went by very smoothly. I felt nothing during the procedure anyway, but when I went to work the next day I had very minimal swelling. I was delighted with my experience. She attempted to explain her technique on the anesthetic, but it went over my head very quickly. Dr. Rametra shows so much passion for her work. Insurance can be intimidating, but not with this office. They work very well with your insurance to get you the most savings possible. The parking at this clinic is good, and the overall sanitation of it was spectacular.

Dr. Rametra at Nassau Dental came to my attention thanks to the referral of one of my friends. I did not think to look at the other reviews online, but everything stated in these is absolutely correct. Her office in Hempstead, NY is the best. I came into her office with a chip on one of my front teeth and a mild toothache coming from one of my molars. I ended up having to get a root canal. I figured I would feel some pain, but the procedure as a whole was painless. I didn’t even know they injected the local anesthesia. During the recovery, I didn’t even need the pain medicine that was prescribed to me. Even though I have insurance, I expected to have to pay a few hundred dollars. The price was very reasonable, and the support staff walked me through each line on the billing statement to let me know what it meant. I loved how upfront and honest this office is. I always used to hate going to the dentists; my anxiety was always through the roof. But, Dr. Shaifali Rametra went out of her way to make me feel comfortable. She discussed the preventative things that I do well and then added a few suggestions to improve my gum health. She never said anything about wishing that I would have come sooner due to my issues. My thoughts about going to the dentist have entirely changed. The whole staff was so friendly, experienced, and welcoming.

I’ve been a patient here for a year now. My insurance, Delta Dental, did just change though, so I can’t go to her any longer :(. Anyone who does have insurance in Hempstead should visit this office. Dr. Rametra helped me get rid of my fear of the dentist. She's a true professional and always makes sure his patients feel comfortable in his chair. They also offer a very affordable dental plan to their patients without insurance, which I am considering.

I’ve only been to Nassau Dental but I’ve enjoyed myself everytime I come here. The dentists are kind and friendly, and the front staff is willing to answer any questions you have. I am petrified of the dentist, and it took me forever to do braces because of that, but this place has helped me get rid of my fears so much so that I finally decided it was time to do braces once I had enough money. The receptionist deserves a special shout out; she has been very helpful. She is very friendly when she calls me and has helped me come up with a payment plan that works for me so that it fits with my budget. Dr. Rametra and her assistants are always friendly and make me feel relaxed before they work on my teeth by explaining what they’re going to do. I love this place, and am so happy I found it. I’ve recommended it to all my friends and family.

General Dentistry for Everyone in Hempstead, NY
General dental care is as essential to your smile as brushing and flossing your teeth. For example, preventive exams and cleanings are necessary to avoid dental issues such as tooth decay and periodontitis. At our Hempstead, NY dental office, Dr. Rametra and our team offer an array of general dental procedures to help your family enjoy a lifetime of healthy smiles.
The Value of General and Preventative Dentistry
When it comes to your oral as well as your overall health, prevention is vital. Therefore, the primary focus of family dental care is preventing dental diseases from developing. Besides practicing good hygiene, professional dental cleanings and check-ups help stop the development of bacteria-rich plaque. Other treatments, such as teeth-whitening, fillings, crowns, and more, can also help you manage existing issues before they grow worse.
Maintaining Good Oral Health in the Long Run
During your visit to your dentist’s office, your dentist will carefully perform a comprehensive dental exam for signs of trouble. If any are present, then he or she will recommend an appropriate course of treatment to stop the problem from worsening. However, caring for your smile will still rely on routine visits with your general dentist.
