Where Healthy Smiles Take Flight

Where Healthy Smiles Take Flight

Welcome to Paper Planes Pediatric Dentistry!

Serving The Stewart Manor, NY Area

We are a practice founded on the belief that every child's dental experience should be warm, encouraging, and genuinely fun. We combine years of professional expertise and modern dental technology with a playful, warm energy. Our approach begins by building a personal connection with your child, taking the time to learn about their interests and hear their stories. This relationship is key to helping them feel comfortable, which helps reduce the fear and anxiety often associated with the dentist. We are dedicated to prioritizing both your child's long-term health and a truly positive patient experience at every single visit. From our home in Stewart Manor, we are delighted to serve our neighbors in Garden City, Floral Park, and New Hyde Park, as well as the wider communities of Mineola, Roslyn, Westbury, and Hempstead.

Our Services

From basic dental care to intricate treatments, our skilled dental team is dedicated to ensuring your child attains a joyful, healthy smile in a comfortable, worry-free setting.

Preventative Care

Gentle Relaxation

Healthy smiles start with prevention. Through regular checkups, gentle cleanings, and personalized guidance, we help children build strong dental habits that last a lifetime.

Patient Education

We guide patients on proper brushing, flossing, and diet habits to protect their teeth and gums. Empowering you with the right knowledge ensures lasting oral health between visits

Early Detection

Advanced diagnostic tools allow us to identify cavities, gum disease, and other concerns before they become serious. Early intervention helps avoid costly and complex treatments later.

Restorative Care

Dental Restorations

We offer a full range of restorative treatments, including fillings and crowns, to repair damaged teeth and restore function. Each procedure is tailored to ensure strength, comfort, and a natural look.

Smile Enhancement

Our restorative solutions not only repair but also improve your smile’s appearance. From tooth-colored fillings to lifelike crowns, we focus on aesthetics as much as durability.

Long-Term Oral Health

Restorative care helps prevent further decay, shifting, or bite issues that can develop after tooth damage. Our goal is to protect your overall oral health and preserve your natural teeth for years to come.

Collaborative Care

We work closely with caregivers and healthcare providers to coordinate treatment plans that best support each patient’s overall well-being and oral health.

Nitrous Oxide

Gentle Relaxation

Nitrous oxide, often called “laughing gas,” helps patients feel calm and comfortable during dental procedures. It eases anxiety without putting you to sleep, making treatment a smooth experience.

Safe and Effective

Administered through a small mask, nitrous oxide works quickly and wears off just as fast. It’s a trusted, safe option suitable for both children and adults needing a little extra comfort.

Stress-Free Visits

By reducing fear and tension, nitrous oxide allows patients to receive the care they need with confidence. Our team ensures each visit remains relaxed, positive, and pain-free.
