We Had a Blast at the LIC Springs Block Party!

On May 12th, our Queensboro Plaza Dental Care team had a fabulous time at the 5th annual LIC Springs! community block festival, hosted by the Long Island City Partnership, on Vernon Boulevard between 50th and 46th Avenue. We braved a heavy downpour when we arrived at the fair at 10:00 am, but it turned out to be a great bonding experience for all. Fortunately, the weather cleared up just in time for the event to start and there was a great turnout from the community!

Meeting the LIC Community

This was our first time participating in the LIC Springs! street festival, and we were thrilled to meet many young families (and dogs!). Dr. Nguyen was honored to also meet several fellow veterans and trade stories about their time serving in the military. He enthusiastically spoke with local residents about the unique services our dental practice offers.

Giveaways at Our Booth

Not only did our team offer temporary tattoos and giveaways for kids, but we even raffled off two in-office whitening sessions and a one year membership to our Dental Savers plan! (Ask us for more information about this in-house discount plan, an excellent alternative to dental insurance.) We’d like to congratulate our winners: Remie C., Tantip W., and Lucia C. — thanks for coming out to meet us! But these LIC residents weren’t the only ones who walked away with a special something from us; we handed out over 100 brochure packets that included fun goodies, like lip balm and a dental emergencies refrigerator magnet.

Watch Our Video!

Overall, we had a terrific time at the LIC Springs! fair. Our team found LIC residents and fellow business owners to be incredibly welcoming, encouraging, and supportive. We even won the LIC Partnership’s #EyesOnTheStreet video contest. Check out our Facebook or Instagram pages to see our video!

As somebody with pretty bad anxiety about the dentist, Doctor Dan made me feel very calm throughout getting one of my teeth pulled. It was also extremely quick, I didn’t even realize it was over. I’ve been a patient here for a while and have always felt comfortable in the atmosphere. Front desk staff, hygienists, and dentists are very kind.

Dan Parker

Doc Dan and Jessica are simply brilliant as well as the rest of the crew … the whole facility is state of the art and the staff is friendly and accommodating. A+++++.

Jessica and Dr. Michel were very friendly and answered all my questions. Comprehensive and efficient

Yesterday was my first time at Queensbroro Dental and hands down the absolute best dental visit I have ever had. I had an emergency visit for a broken molar that was in really bad shape and had the pleasure of being treated by Dr.Dan. After some quick X-rays, Dr.Dan came in to tell me the harsh truth, the tooth must go and I needed a cavity in the next tooth to be taken care of as well. Dr.Dan presented me with three treatment options also demonstrating how each one worked which was amazing. Shortly after Angie one of the receptionist’s came in with the break down of all three plans with what insurance coverages and what I would end up paying. After some careful deliberation the choice to go with an implant was made and shortly after we began. Let me tell you for a man with many big muscles he was so so gentle I honestly didn’t feel a thing and both procedures were done before I even realized it. From front desk to the dentist and even the dental assistant everyone warmed my heart which is so very rare now a days sadly. They truly do care and I will absolutely be going back for further treatment

I had the best visit with dental hygienist Thinley. This was probably the best dental experience I’ve ever had. Her approach was so gentle and she had great bedside manner. I’ve never been had such a gentle cleaning. Usually I’m tense the entire visit and waiting for it to hurt but that didn’t happen at all today. She also explained everything so thoroughly, which I appreciated. The front staff are super friendly and Dr. Barayev was also really nice. 10/10 dental experience!

Excellent service. The receptionist Jazmin is literally so sweet and the reason I even ended up coming here. She helped me book an appointment and explained cost breakdowns in an easily digestible way. Dr Dan was also very thorough and was willing to answer all of my questions and provide clarity when needed. He was very gentle and talked me through everything he was doing. At checkout I was provided with all necessary paperwork and even a little dental care package with a toothbrush toothpaste and floss; I haven’t been to a dentist who has done that in a while so that was a nice surprise. I felt extremely comfortable and well taken care of which is important for me when it comes to any aspect of my health. I will definitely be back!

I want to take a moment to highlight and recognize your hygienist, Jessica. She is truly a gem and exceptional at what she does. Her attention to detail, passion for her work, and the empathetic touch she brings to each visit make getting my teeth cleaned an absolute pleasure. In all my years of dental cleanings, she is the best hygienist I’ve ever had, and she continues to leave a lasting impression. Thank you, Jessica!

Loved everything about going here. Friendly welcome, amazing dental clean, great dentist and gave some recommendations how I can clean better (to ultimately come less haha). Really appreciate it!
