Welcome to Chelsea Dental Aesthetics
Chelsea NYC Dentist, David A. Blaustein, DDS, practices a full scope of general and cosmetic dentistry with expertise ranging from porcelain veneers to dental implants, crowns and bridges. Dr. Blaustein can now correct a wide variety of so-called permanent cosmetic dental problems, and can literally redesign your smile. Why Choose Chelsea Dental Aesthetics and Dr. Blaustein as your Dentist? You can certainly choose from among many practices – some privately owned like our practice or others owned and run by an impersonal, corporate structure. Some that have made a life-long commitment to investing in ongoing training and education like our practice and others that don’t consider this a priority. Some that have sought new yet well-tested technology and innovations that improve quality of care like our practice and others who are happy with the status quo. Some that follow, study and apply the evidence that solid research offers like our practice or others who fail to pursue or incorporate that evidence. If you want a dentist who insists on putting your agenda ahead of his or her own, we are the practice for you. If you want a dentist who will comprehensively assess your condition so you have the information you need to make choices in your best interest, we are the practice for you. If you want a dentist that can manage all of your dental disease processes that are breaking down your chewing system, repair the damage and provide you with an attractive smile, we are the practice for you. If you want a dentist who will respect your choice for whatever reason you make that choice, we are the practice for you. If you want a dentist who thoughtfully and intentionally assembled a team of support professionals to ensure that your visits are comfortable, your time is used wisely and you are treated with the utmost respect, we are the practice for you. We want to be your dentist. We work in collaboration with you, our patient, in pursuit of results that both meet our clinical standards and address your lifestyle and financial issues. We hope to serve you and look forward to providing you with extraordinary dental care. Our office is located at 415 West 23rd Street, Suite 1B, New York, NY. Call us at 212-243-6081.
