Proudly Serving Franklin Square, New York
The health of your teeth can have a significant impact on your overall health and people’s perception of you. Your smile is one of the first features people notice. A healthy smile and fresh breath not only make you more approachable but communicate to others that you place great importance on oral hygiene.
The entire body’s immune system and heart function depend on removing bacteria from your teeth. When bacteria remain, one of the first negative side effects is tooth decay. This typically manifests into cavities, small holes in the outer structure of the tooth. Unhealthy bacteria can also lead to gum disease, a serious bacterial infection that has both oral and physical ramifications. As the disease progresses, it can result in tooth loss, but it may also increase your risk for diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart disease.
Preventative care is a priority for Dr. Novick and the team at Celebrity Dental. We desire to help our patients maintain good oral health so they can preserve their natural teeth for as long as possible. Below are just a few of the ways we can make that happen.
Dental Checkups and Cleanings
According to the American Dental Association, you should visit the dentist for a dental cleaning and examination every six months to maintain healthy teeth. This can help prevent cavities and other serious oral health conditions.
At the appointment, one of our friendly hygienists will take digital x-rays. This technology not only exhibits less radiation than traditional x-rays but makes storing and recalling x-rays more convenient. Once completed, the hygienist will then begin removing plaque buildup with handheld instruments and an ultrasonic scaling device. He or she will also floss in between teeth to remove any trapped food and bacteria.
A high-powered toothbrush and abrasive paste will then be used to polish teeth and remove any remaining plaque. To complete the treatment, the hygienist will have you rinse with fluoride to help strengthen enamel. For children or adults more susceptible to tooth decay, dental sealants can be applied over teeth.
Once the teeth are cleaned and dried, Dr. Novick will examine your teeth and gums, and review the x-rays for any underlying issues. He may also use a revolutionary cavity detection device known as DIAGNOdent™ to identify tooth decay. This device can locate the very earliest signs of cavities, helping patients save time and money on costly restorative dental procedures. Cavities can generally be repaired with dental fillings. In more serious cases, a dental crown may be required. When gum disease is present, he will recommend scaling and root planing.
Bruxism and TMJ Treatment
Teeth grinding and jaw clenching (bruxism) can damage molars and cause tooth sensitivity and severe jaw pain, known as TMJ (temporomandibular joint) disorder. Because bruxism often occurs unknowingly while patients sleep, we offer customized oral appliances known as mouth guards. This appliance fits comfortably over the top and bottom teeth and should be worn nightly to alleviate jaw pain and keep teeth from grinding against each other.
Tips for a Healthy Smile
Dr. Novick believes in partnering with his patients to help preserve healthy smiles. While attending routine examinations is important, implementing a proper oral hygiene regimen at home is also key to maintaining healthy teeth and gums. Some tips to remember include:
- Brush your teeth – This should be done morning and night, or after each meal, if you have the beginning signs of gum disease.
- Use proper brushing techniques – Hold the toothbrush at a 45-degree angle and brush teeth for about two minutes. Be use and use a circular motion to avoid irritating gums.
- Floss daily – This will remove food and bacteria from in between teeth.
- Rinse with an antibacterial mouthwash – This helps prevent gum disease and keep breath fresh.

The entire team at Celebrity Dental is absolutely amazing! I’m usually terrified of dentist visits but everyone at the office makes sure you’re comfortable with their friendliness and upbeat demeanors. They’re extremely efficient too! I have not had to sit in the waiting room once and I’ve been here a few times now. Will definitely keep coming back 😊

The time they spent with me is incredible in this day and age of fast pace service.

My wife and I have been seeing Dr Novick since he opened his practice in Franklin Square, about 27 years ago. He is highly skilled, friendly, always gentle, and up to date with modern methods to make his treatments more comfortable, quick and most beneficial for his patients. He talks to you during your time in the chair- explaining what he is doing, making you laugh at times, and always tuned in to your comfort level and needs. In our opinion, there is no better dentist.

Dr. Novick is really amazing. I hated going to the dentist until I started going to him. He takes pride in his work and makes sure his clients have a positive experience. He’s constantly checking in on you while he’s doing work. Making sure you’re okay and you’re not feeling any pain. He also gives you a thorough explanation of what is going on in your mouth so you can know what to do better to improve dental health.
Again, I’ve never come across a dentist, or any service provider for that matter, that takes the amount of time and pride in their work and care for their clients. Would give him 10 stars if I could!

I have nothing but good things to say about Dr. Novick and his staff! I have severe anxiety and fear when it comes to the dentist and I fear every visit. Everyone from Danielle, to Pam to Dr. Novick himself help to make me feel help to elevate some of my fears! They are all understanding of my fears and anxieties and work very hard with me to make me feel as comfortable as possible. Dr. Novick is gentle, caring and knowledgeable. I am beyond grateful to have a dentist like Dr. Novick!

if your looking for a professional, clean, caring office this IS the place to go! The staff is always welcoming and courteous. Dr Novick is caring and always follows up with his patient. My Dad goes here and is not fluent in English and they always make the time for me when I call and get his update on care. Excellent experience.

This was my very first visit to Celebrity Dental and I am so very happy that I chose them for my dental needs. It has been some time since I've seen a dentist especially one that I truly felt comfortable with, hence one of the major reasons I have not paid regular visits to any dentist office. From the first phone call to schedule an appointment, to the dental hygienist completing my cleaning, the entire staff, was so pleasant. Dr Novick, is very informative and his patience and his care for his patients showed through and through. Dr Novick took his time making me and my sons feel so very comfortable, teaching us so many truths about oral care and answering any question he was asked clearly and honestly. The knowledge we received from just the first visit will last a lifetime. Thank you Celebrity Dental, Dr Novick, and the entire staff for the wonderful experience. P.S. I cannot remember the name of my dental hygienist but I just want to give her a huge SHOUT OUT for being so excellent at cleaning my teeth, especially for the numbing topical, LOL.

Dr. Novick and his staff are always professional and helpful. Dr Novick and Hygienist Pam always make my kids (3, 6 and 15) comfortable and they look forward to going to the dentist. They are gentle and explain everything before doing anything. Dianne is always so friendly and helpful with taking care of everything. I am so glad I found Dr Novick and his staff. I would highly recommend anyone with little ones, older kids or for themselves to make their next dentist appointment at Celebrity Dental.

Great dentist and staff. Dr. Novick always explains everything to me and to my kids thoroughly calming any anxiety. He always works hard to ensure that everything feels good and looks good and most importantly that our mouths are healthy. The office is and has always been impeccably clean which in these times is so important. No hesitation in giving the office a five star review.

I can’t say enough about how great this practice is. Dr Novick is knowledgeable, kind and extremely gentle. I have had 2 procedures done that were 100% pain free. moving my family’s dental care to this practice was the best decision we’ve made. I recently took my 10 and 12 year old for their annual cleaning and after leaving my very fearful 10 year old said “I like him a lot and his helper (hygienist) was the best she didn’t even make me gag”. My 12 year old asked me if he could keep coming back to this dentist because as he said “he talked to me like I’m a real person and didn’t baby me”, Dr Novick made a connection with the kids and really encouraged them to be a part of their treatment and to have an active role in their dental care. If you are looking for a fantastic dental practice for yourself and your family I hands down recommend Dr. Novick and the team and Celebrity Dental.

I have been treated by Dr. Novich for over 25 years and have had nothing but great experiences every time I visit his office. The professional staff and Dr. Novich cannot be matched. From scheduling to treatment have been nothing, but unbelievable. To understand what I saying you have to experience it yourself.

Dr. Novak actually cleaned my teeth himself in order for me to get in due to covid. People who are afraid of the dentist should definitely come see him. He actually cares about your teeth. He doesn't just say your teeth look great see you next visit. He has X-rays done usually every other visit (one a year) to see if anything new pops up. Dr. Novak also explains things to patients. He helps them with their hygiene overall. The people at the front desk are great as well, very polite. Dental Hygienists and X-ray techs are the best as well. I recommend going to Celebrity Dental to everyone.

Dr. Novick has been a great blessing to me. I have always had a fear of the dentist and lack of compliance with follow up. Dr. Novick is understanding of that fear. He makes sure he explains what I need and why. He makes sure I’m comfortable and pain free. I have a picture of what my overall dental plan is and the benefits of achieving these goals. His staff is great and funny. I’m glad I found them. Very much recommend his dental practice. You won’t be sorry you chose them.

I was kept informed of my procedure protocols the entire time, fully numb and in no pain. The procedure went without any complications. I walked out without any pain and no post surgical issues. I didn't even need a tylenol. I was totally satisfied with the delcate work performed on my teeth. Dr. Novick and his assistant were great. His staff is also very nice and easy to work with. Thumbs up all the way.

Hi everyone, I just wanted to take a moment and let everyone know the experience I had at celebrity dental. I recently had to go in for emergency procedure and I contacted Dr. Novick and his staff and made an appointment. From the moment I stepped into his office I was thoroughly impressed with the procedures they had in place to make it safe. The office was very clean and all the the patients were wearing masks. Everyone was practicing social distancing which made me even feel more comfortable. If anyone needs a safe, clean and reliable dentist office I would thoroughly recommend Dr. Novick.

Dr. Novick treated my son about eight months ago. I normally go to dentist on the north shore in my town but I had heard such wonderful things about Dr. Novick so I decided to take the journey to his office. I have to tell you I couldn’t have been more happy and more satisfied with the way he treated me and my son. A usually stressful procedure for my child was done seamlessly and professionally. I would definitely take the journey back to see Dr. Novick and I highly recommend them to all people

Wow! Just wow!...
I say that becuse like so many, I’m someone who dreads going to the dentist. Filled with anxiety from a young age, I always associated the dentist with negativity. That was the case until I had my first appointment with Dr. Novick. The experience provided by him and his incredible office staff is second to none. I would go as far as to say, it was actually kind of fun. Dr. Novick’s calming personality and witty humor made it feel like I was anywhere but a dentists office. I highly recommend for children and adults of any age if you’re looking for a dental experience that will actually be enjoyable!

I have been Dr. Novick’s patient for many years and the care that I’ve received over the years has never been anything less than excellent.
As a nurse I’m very conscious of environment and cleanliness. In addition to always feeling safe… his office is welcoming and comfortable.
From the first day, almost 30 years ago, it was immediately apparent how knowledgeable Dr. Novick was and how much he enjoyed his profession. Time has not changed this. He remains current in dental practices and procedures, and it is apparent that he still loves what he does. Many years ago, my Mom was very ill and was in rehab, and he came to the facility to address an issue she was having. Who does this? I will never forget that kindness.
I am very sensitive about my teeth, maybe too sensitive, and have had some dental issues over the years. Dr. Novick has always been patient and interested in addressing whatever concerns I’ve had. He explains everything he is doing; there is never any pain; there are never any surprises and he calls to follow up after a procedure.
His staff is phenomenal! Diana, his office manager and Danielle, his patient coordinator, are a pleasure to deal with. They are accommodating and professional, and simply the nicest people you could know. Since Pam, his Dental Hygienist, has been in the practice I no longer dread cleanings. She is gentle and thorough. And his assistants Rafaela and Laura are friendly and a pleasure.
It is difficult these days to find a physician in any specialty who has the expertise, patience and caring personality that Dr. Novick has…as well as a terrific staff. What more can you ask for?
I’ve told Dr. Novick many times that he had better not decide to relocate or retire (a ways off, I imagine) as long as I still have teeth in my mouth!!!

Been coming here a really long time. I don't even live local anymore and travel from CT because Dr. Novick has really taken care of my mouth over the years. He always takes the time to explain everything and even follows up personally after any procedure to make sure your doing ok. Always a great experience, and you can tell that everyone actually cares about their patients. The office is clean and runs on time which is amazing. Thank you Diana, Pamela, Danielle and the rest of the crew.

I wish I could give more than 5 stars,
Dr. Novick and his staff are phenomenal, I never ever met such a beautifully trained inviting and warm staff, let's start with Danielle, she is the patient coordinator, I had spoken to this angel over the phone before my appointment, she relaxed me with her very kind soft spoken words, she is exceptional in her work, Diana, this is who I saw upon my arrival, she is the office manager, another soft spoken beautiful angel, just like Danielle, she made me feel so welcome, she is like an old friend, whom I had not seen in a long while,( I was that comfortable) Laura and Rafaela, are more beautiful souls, they are the dental assistants, they are very kind and considerate, they also made me feel like a family member, Pam the dental hygienist , explained everything I need to know to continue on a path to healthy teeth and gums, she explained this in such a way that I was overwhelmed by her level of care and consideration for my OVERALL HEALTH, not to mention she cleaned my teeth so effortless, It felt good and looked even better, Dr. Novick is the absolute best Dentist I ever been to in my life, he's like the icing on the cake, he was thorough, pleasant, and extremely knowledgeable, this man knows his craft, he is also quite handsome, another perk, this experience with him and his staff was so beautiful, I am thanking GOD for this pleasure of finding such a treasure they are all deserving of more than a million stars. Thank You Marsha Holland
