Shall I Arrive Early for My First Appointment?

Yes. We kindly advise to arrive at least 15 minutes prior to your scheduled appointment to fill out a New Patient Form.

What Should I Bring to My First Appointment at Your Clinic?

Please bring the following documents to your first appointment: - Personal identification (driver’s license, ID card, etc.) - Insurance card

How Long Is My First Appointment Expected to Last at Your Clinic?

We advise that our patients are expected to have their first appointment at our clinic to last on average from an hour to an hour and a half.

I Was Previously Told to Take Antibiotics Before the Dental Visit. Is this true?

In some cases patients are required to take antibiotic medications before certain dental procedures are performed to lessen a risk of infection after the procedure. If you have already had prescription to antibiotic medication, please bring that to your appointment. Your dentist will advise if you need to take the medication after the procedure.

Why Are Regular Dentist Visits Important?

Regular dental visits are important because they provide you with the updates on your oral health and address the changes at an early stage making the treatment easier and less invasive and can potentially save you a lot of money in the long run.

Manhattan Beach Dentist — Cosmetic, Restorative & Family Care

For Manhattan Beach residents looking for a dentist that takes its time and gets the details right, Eco Dental NY is a short drive away at 2384 Ocean Avenue — north of Sheepshead Bay, easily reached via Ocean Avenue, Knapp Street, or Shore Boulevard. Call (718) 368-3368 to book — most appointments same week, emergencies same day.

Dental care that meets the standard you’d expect from your block

Manhattan Beach is a quiet, residential corner of southern Brooklyn — a waterfront neighborhood with single-family homes, a tight community feel, and patients who appreciate care that’s thorough, unhurried, and honest. Eco Dental NY was built around exactly those values.

Our lead dentist, Dr. Natalia Blazhkevich, DDS, earned her degree at the New York University College of Dentistry — one of the country’s most demanding dental programs — and combines that clinical training with the kind of warm, communicative chairside manner that turns a once-a-year cleaning into something you actually don’t dread.

Where we focus — and why Manhattan Beach patients return

Cosmetic dentistry done with restraint

The best cosmetic work doesn’t announce itself. Whether you’re considering porcelain veneers, professional teeth whitening, or simply addressing a chip or worn edge, our approach is conservative — preserve as much natural tooth structure as possible, and aim for a result that looks like a great version of your own smile rather than a “new” one.

Porcelain veneers — custom-shaped, color-matched to surrounding teeth, with shade gradient that mimics natural enamel translucency
Professional whitening — significantly more effective than over-the-counter products, with custom trays for at-home maintenance
Cosmetic bonding — for small chips, gaps, or shape adjustments without veneers
Tooth contouring — minor reshaping that often makes a noticeable difference

Restorative work that lasts

When a tooth needs repair, we choose materials and techniques designed to last decades, not years. Tooth-colored composite fillings, durable porcelain crowns, and well-fitted bridges — done carefully the first time so they don’t have to be redone.

Dental implants

For replacing a single missing tooth or restoring multiple teeth with an implant-supported bridge, we coordinate the entire process and partner with trusted oral surgeons for the surgical placement step. The result: stable, natural-looking teeth that function like the originals.

Preventive care for the whole family

Six-month cleanings, sealants for kids’ permanent molars, gum-health monitoring, and the unglamorous work that prevents the dramatic work later.

Emergency care during business hours

Cracked a tooth on the way home? Sudden severe pain? We hold same-day emergency slots Monday through Friday. See our emergency dentist page for guidance on what to do right now.

A team that listens

Manhattan Beach patients consistently mention three things in their feedback:

We explain before we treat. X-rays are shown to you, not just filed. Recommendations come with the reasoning.
We’re honest about cost. No upsells. No surprise charges at checkout.
We’re patient with anxiety. Many patients tell us their previous dentist was efficient but not warm. Dr. Blazhkevich’s approach is the opposite — careful, calm, and attentive.

Our team speaks English, Russian, Polish, Ukrainian, and Uzbek — useful if you’d prefer to discuss treatment in a language other than English.
