I am 70-years-old. This practice rates "A Perfect Ten"(apologies to Bo Derek!). I've been to a score of dentists since my childhood in Brooklyn, and growing up in Lynbrook and East Rockaway, Long Island, in addition to later adult residences in Nassau and Suffolk Counties. When I moved back to ER during the COVID pandemic, I "discovered" the great Dr. Margarita Kaus, DDS and her outstanding practice. This dental practice is far and away the best I have ever encountered (due respect to all other dental offices) Dr. Margarita Kaus entrusted my care to Dr. Isaac Rubinov (superb, outstanding, remarkable!!!) and to Dr. Armand (another "star" on the staff, who comes in on Tuesdays from his faculty position at NYU Dental School jn Midtown Manhattan, where he operates a clinic). Dr. Ruben and Dr. Armand are my two dental "all-stars.". All are graduates of the top-flight NYU Dental School, one of the premiere dental schools in the USA. They performed complicated dental work on me,along with with their calm demeanor, reassuring "chairside manner," and state-of-the-art technology that their staff and they utilized in the office. My recent work included complicated bridge work and a ceramic crown. I met a down-to-earth local worker, "Pizza Mike" recently, who sang the praises of this practice just as I have done (in his case, specifying Dr. Rubinov, Dr. Armand, Dr. Kaus, and staff). The staff and the dentists present themselves as cordial and highly professional . The receptionists and clerical/billing staff come across as patient, compassionate, competent, and amiable. A wonderful financing option exists through a bank in Utah at 0.0% interest for 6/12 months, and at a modest interest rate when extended for a time period beyond (via direct debit payments over a monthly basis). The practice recently expanded with enlarged office space on-site, including a arger reception area, staffed by the affable Shante and Ashley. The dental assistants and hygienists come across as committed and professional. The longest-serving one, Bogdan, comes across as pleasant and highly-competent. If visiting the dentist strikes fear in you, cast your cares upon this caring and highly professional practice. They will welcome you with respect and dignity, receive you with gentleness and kindness, and treat you with competency and m compassion. Don't be fooled by the unassuming curbside storefront and the easy-to-miss location in a mini-strip mall facade of this "''world class practice" headlined by these three IVY League NYU dental school practitioners and their top-drawer staff. Once you step inside, you will be transformed by a superb office. Every best expectation of your dental care will be met. If you are like me, your experience will exceed your finest expectations every time that you visit the office. My experience yesterday simply confirmed these experiences, under the continued care of Dr. Armand, who completed a complicated dental procedure quickly and painlessly. I believe that you will be as satisfied by your experience as I have been over the course of the past year-and-a-half, when I switched to this dental practice, conveniently located in the heart of the South Shore of Long Island in East Rockaway. Ample parking exists on Atlantic Avenue and the side streets. As a bonus, stop at the Italian trattoria next door for eat-in or take-out. (And say hello to "Pizza Mike" or Rogelio). I only wish I could accord MODERN TOUCH DENTAL, PC many extra stars that would comport with my maximum allotted rating of five stars. Recommended without reservation as an unparalleled, outstanding...
Read moreI've never had a confident relationship with a doctor or dentist before Modern Touch. Always jumping from place to place, I noticed doctors usually would get you in and out and not really care about the patient as a whole. Dr Kaus addressed all my issues from the beginning and is now working on each individual task separately to ensure thorough and efficent treatment. I can speak to her like a human being, one on one, and be heard. She answers my questions and respects my decision if it differs from her suggestion. Usually, doctors don't care about your personal opinions, feelings or decisions but I feel like I was given accommodating options and the freedom of choice at Modern Touch. She also works with you on billing issues and change of insurance, so long as the office accepts your provider. If not, they have no interest loans provided by Lending Club and other lenders. Like I said, I can always talk to her about my concerns and somehow she will find a way to make it work.
Currently, I am at the end of my Invisalign treatment and am extremely satisfied with the results. No other dentist has pushed me to improve on myself and encouraged a high self-esteem before Dr. Kaus. I gave up on my smile and did not care about my teeth so long as they weren't falling out or riddled with cavities. I was very content with the bare minimum of a yearly check-up, bi-yeearly cleaning and necessary filling here and there. Dr. Kaus saw this and literally asked me why I was OK with the bare minimal upkeep. I really had no answer for her. Now, my smile is strong and straight. I'm about to get a tooth crowned that I recently just had a root canal on and then we're whitening and brightening my new smile! All...
Read moreModern Touch Dental in East Rockaway is absolutely wonderful! The orthodontist Dr. Kaus is lovely. She is very gentle , knowledgeable and takes her time to listen to your concerns. She is dedicated and gives her 100% to make sure her patients are happy. She works along side patients to make decisions that best suit them within their course of treatment.
The dentist, Dr. Rubinov is also great. He is caring and with his sense of humor, helps the most nervous patients feel more comfortable. He genuinely connects with his patients, which is amazing. He is very approachable and makes sure you understand everything.
The oral hygienist Yelena is a true gem. She is a sweetheart and takes her time to make sure you are comfortable during routine cleanings as well as deep cleanings and whitenings. She talks to you throughout the visit that helps get your mind off of the actual cleaning being done.Cleanings are quick and virtually painless.I look forward to my dental cleanings because I know I am in great hands.
For someone who has always feared the dentist, this whole practice has helped me face my fear and continuously go to them for routine procedures and more. I began with them over two years ago where I have had a complete Invisalign treatment done, various cavities fixed, old bonding removed, deep cleanings, whitening, and routine cleanings. They are the best! Even the dental assistants are sweet and comforting. When they welcome you in, it feels like they are honestly happy to see you. Which is not the case in other places. The receptionists are also efficient and helpful.
I am thankful for this amazing team! I feel like family here. It’s great! I highly recommend Modern...
