Tend Dental Downtown Brooklyn

At Tend Dental Downtown Brooklyn, we make paying for your dental care simple, transparent, and stress-free—so you can trust the dentist again and count on clear next steps, from procedures to the payment process.

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

Yes, our dentists at Tend Dental Downtown Brooklyn are accepting new patients! No matter how much time has passed since your last dental appointment, our goal is to make you feel at ease. We pride ourselves on creating a judgment-free environment where every patient is treated with empathy and respect.

Your initial visit will include a thorough exam, a detailed review of your oral health, and time to discuss any concerns or goals you may have. We’ll make sure you feel informed, comfortable, and fully supported from the moment you walk in.

For most patients, we recommend coming in for a cleaning and checkup every six months. These routine visits help us identify small issues, such as early signs of decay or gum disease, before they become more serious or expensive to treat, so you can feel the care in every detail of how we protect your long-term oral health.

However, some patients may need to visit more often, especially if there is a history of gum disease, wear orthodontic appliances like aligners, or are more prone to plaque buildup. Your dentist will create an oral health 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.

Yes, we do. We are proud to partner with major dental insurers to provide you with amazing care at great prices.

We also offer a real-time online benefits check before you come in. We’ll show you the most that your dental visit could cost, so you’ll never pay more than you expect.

The insurers we partner with include Delta Dental, Aetna, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Empire Blue Cross Blue Shield, Guardian, MetLife, United Concordia, Principal, Oxford Health Plans, and Ameritas.

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

• A comprehensive dental examination to evaluate your teeth, gums, bite, and overall oral health
• Digital X-rays for a detailed look below the surface (with lower radiation than traditional X-rays)
• A gentle, professional dental cleaning tailored to meet your unique needs
• An in-depth 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.

We are also proud to offer our care in a calm and soothing environment, so you can relax and actually enjoy taking care of your smile
