OUR JOURNEY Since 1989, our office has been serving the Capital district area of New York with quality dental care. Dr. Virjee graduated from the University of Pennsylvania School of Dental Medicine in 1987, and established a dental office with emphasis to provide practical, affordable and long term solutions for his patients' dental problems. The needs of the clientele primarily formed the basis of the choices made in pursuing further training to become knowledgeable with current trends in the profession. In addition, when the need for specialized care arises, our office works with oral surgeons, periodontists, orthodontists, and endodontists in the area, to provide a team approach with high standards of care. Dental healthcare delivery is a challenging field, especially its delivery to those who have had a 'bad' experience in the past. We work very hard to establish a comfortable and a trustable environment in our office. Our staff is friendly, caring and compassionate at all levels, and the fact that we have maintained the same core staff for many years, speaks for itself. Over the years, our office has established agreements with a wide range of dental insurance carriers, including CSEA, Delta Dental, and the Empire plan of Blue Cross and Blue Shield, etc. (Please see a list of insurance companies we participate with). We provide financing options for those without insurance, and continue to explore ways to make good quality dental care affordable. The bulk of the work we do currently falls under the category of general dentistry. We have expanded our services to provide care for other conditions including oral appliances to manage obstructive sleep apnea, and manage pain associated with head and neck region. Invisalign or clear aligner orthodontics is also becoming a feature in our practice. As the research in the field of dentistry continues to produce improvements in the ways and means of delivering dental care, we make the effort to incorporate it in our office. Our journey has been a good one so far, and with the support of our staff and the continued patronage of our patients, the future seems bright. If you are looking for a dental care facility, we would like for you to consider our office. We feel confident that it will be the beginning of a long term and fruitful relationship. Shakil Virjee
