Horseheads has a steady population of around 6,500 and a short list of family dental practices. When Horseheads families look for services beyond routine cleanings – dental implants, sleep apnea treatment, or a dentist who takes time with anxious patients – they often make the 10-minute drive south to our Broadway Street office.
Three things Horseheads patients consistently tell us make the drive worth it:
- In-house dental implants. Most general dentists in the area refer implant work out to specialists. Dr. Richard B. Dunn, DDS, has placed implants since 1984 and completes both surgical placement and restoration at our office. That means fewer appointments and one team managing your care.
- Diplomate-level sleep dentistry. Dr. Dunn is a Diplomate of the American Board of Dental Sleep Medicine (ABDSM). If you have been struggling with CPAP, the alternative – custom oral appliance therapy – typically requires driving to Rochester or Syracuse. It is available six miles south of Horseheads.
- Continuity. You see Dr. Dunn at every visit. Not a rotating cast of associates. That matters most for complex cases (implants, sleep apnea, restorative work) where context builds over years.
