Columbia Dental Group

Columbia Dental Group, located at 515 Columbia Dr, Johnson City, NY 13790, is a dental clinic that officially formed on June 1, 2020, through the merger of two long-standing local dental practices: Carpathian Dental and Marusich and Conti Dental. This merger aimed to provide modern, comprehensive dental care for patients of all ages in the Johnson City area. The clinic prides itself on offering a wide array of dental services, encompassing general dentistry, cosmetic dentistry, and more specialized treatments. Their general dentistry services include routine cleanings, exams, digital radiographs, oral cancer screenings, and fluoride treatments. For cosmetic enhancements, they provide teeth whitening (Opalescence®, NiteWhite ACP), composite fillings, porcelain veneers (daVinci™ Veneers), and various crown options (Procera® crowns). Columbia Dental Group is also equipped to handle more complex procedures. Their restorative dentistry focuses on repairing and replacing missing teeth with options like dental implants (Zimmer Implants, Straumann® Implants, 3i Dental Implants), crowns, bridges, and dentures. They offer oral and maxillofacial surgery services, including tooth extractions, apicoectomy, bone grafting, and wisdom teeth removal. Furthermore, they address temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMJ), even offering Botox® as an alternative treatment for TMJ. Periodontal services cover everything from scaling and root planing to gum grafting and regenerative procedures for gum disease. They also offer endodontic treatments like root canals. A significant aspect of Columbia Dental Group's practice is their embrace of advanced technology. This includes 3D Cone Beam CT imaging, digital impressions, digital radiographs, intraoral cameras, CEREC same-day crowns, and CO2 laser technology for minimally invasive procedures. They also offer "braces-free" orthodontics (likely referring to clear aligners like Invisalign) and modern sleep apnea treatment. The team includes experienced dentists such as Dr. James Marusich, who was born and raised in Johnson City. Patient testimonials frequently highlight the friendly and professional staff, the comfortable environment, and the gentle approach of the dentists. They emphasize a patient-centered approach, focusing on understanding individual goals and providing personalized treatment plans. Columbia Dental Group offers various payment options, including working with select insurance providers, operating as a fee-for-service practice, and assisting with claims filing. They also provide financing options through CareCredit® and offer an in-office Patient Care Discount Plan for those without insurance, which includes free preventive care and discounts on other treatments.
