Dental exams and screenings for gum disease, decay, and oral cancer
Dental cleanings
Tooth fillings (white fillings)
Dental sealants for children and adults
Pediatric dentistry
Root canal
Tooth extractions
Mouthguards
Laser dentistry
Emergency dentistry
Sedation dentistry

Regular dental care can help you avoid complex dental problems and enjoy a lifelong smile that looks and feels good. Visiting us every six months keeps infection at bay and helps us keep track of your oral health.

Bella Smiles strives for personal dental care in our three Long Island dentist office locations. As a team, we are committed to maintaining the highest standard of care across our practices so that all patients can experience the Bella Smiles Difference.

Cosmetic Dentistry

Dr. Lotardo is a highly trained dentist and an Accredited Member of the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry (AACD). This accreditation shows his strong commitment to providing ethical and high-quality cosmetic dental care. To earn and keep this distinction, Dr. Lotardo must meet strict standards and complete advanced training.

Dr. Lotardo stays up to date with the latest cosmetic dentistry techniques, materials, and technology. This allows him to offer modern treatment options that are safe, effective, and designed to look natural. Whether you want to brighten your smile, fix chips or gaps, or improve the shape of your teeth, you can feel confident knowing your care is backed by skill and experience.

Bella Smiles offers cosmetic dentistry that can provide a subtle or dramatic smile makeover. Whatever your specific needs and goals are, we’ll help you achieve them. Dr. Lotardo will meet with you to evaluate your dental health and discuss your concerns before he recommends a cosmetic treatment plan. He’s here to help you get the smile you want.

Our cosmetic treatment options include:

If you have multiple cosmetic concerns, we recommend a smile makeover. A smile makeover uses multiple treatments so you can meet your smile goals. For example, if you want to treat crooked and stained teeth, we may recommend Invisalign before we whiten your teeth.

Our office also offers aesthetic services like Botox and Juvederm. Dr. Diana Pop is trained to administer these esthetic treatments. She also has a deep understanding of facial anatomy so she can place injections that smooth wrinkles and add volume to the skin.

Patient Review

Having lived in NYC for decades I continued to commute in to NYC to see my dentist once I move out East for several years. A cracked tooth during the Covid pandemic led me to this incredible practice. People hate going to the dentist for the most part. Not anymore! Dr. Sal Lotardo and his magnificent team made my switch to them very easy. Frankly the work I've had done was par if not better to my NYC dentist. Dr. Lotardo office I notice has latest technology. Every time I go there I experience some new technology. Recently I needed a crown. The days of those huge mold plates are gone. It was fascinating to see my tooth digitized and sized perfectly. I have to add a shout out to Lori who is always so helpful, patient & kind. Hard to believe but I now enjoy going to the dentist. Thank you Bella Smiles!Therese Ryan Mahar
