At Tend Hells Kitchen, we make paying for your dental care simple, transparent, and stress-free.

You can securely pay your bill online with easy, encrypted options like HSA/FSA cards, credit or debit cards, Apple Pay/Google Pay, and more. Through our partner Cedar, you can view your insurance details, track balances, receive reminders, and even set up a custom 0% interest payment plan that fits your budget.

We also offer flexible financing through CareCredit, a healthcare-focused credit option that lets approved patients spread out their dental costs in convenient monthly payments, including for care not fully covered by insurance.

Before any treatment, we’ll clearly explain your expected costs and payment choices so you feel confident moving forward

We recommend coming in for a cleaning and checkup every six months, which is the standard for most patients. These regular visits help us catch small issues like early signs of decay or gum disease before they become more serious or expensive to treat.

However, some patients may need to come in more frequently, especially if they have a history of gum disease, wear orthodontic appliances like aligners, or are more prone to plaque buildup. Your dentist will work with you to create a personalized care plan based on your needs, so you’re always getting the right level of care at the right time.

Even if everything looks great, cleanings help remove plaque and tartar that brushing and flossing alone can't remove, and they’re key to keeping your smile feeling fresh and looking its best.

Your first visit is designed to be both thorough and welcoming. Here’s what it includes:

• A complete dental exam to assess your teeth, gums, bite, and overall oral health
• Digital X-rays for a detailed look below the surface (with significantly lower radiation than traditional X-rays)
• A gentle, professional cleaning tailored to your needs
• A one-on-one conversation with your dentist, who will walk you through any findings, answer your questions, and create a treatment plan if needed

We’ll also review your dental history, talk about your goals (whether it’s improving your oral health or brightening your smile), and give you time to ask questions without feeling rushed.

The environment is designed to feel calm and spa-like, so you can relax and actually enjoy taking care of your smile.

Call us at (646) 582-0672 . Just make sure to do so more than 48 hours before your appointment time. We reserve that time specifically for you, and our appointments are in high demand, so we appreciate as much notice as possible if you need to reschedule.

You can also log into your profile on the Tend Dental app to make any changes needed, including cancelling and rescheduling.
