Metropolitan Smiles Has New Owner, Melody Ahdoot, DDS

Metropolitan Smiles in Kew Gardens has a new owner, Melody, Ahdoot, DDS. As well as a new owner, the dental office offers updated services and family appointment blocks for convenience.

Metropolitan Smiles has a new owner as of January 2012. “It is a private, high-quality ultra-modern dental office,” says new owner Melody Ahdoot, DDS. “The main goal is to provide an enjoyable family experience at the dentist,” she says. 

Dr. Ahdoot has digitalized the office since her takeover of Metropolitan Smiles. She has incorporated digital x-rays into her practice that reduce her patients’ exposure to radiation and provides faster instantaneous x-rays that allow for a more accurate diagnosis. Dr. Ahdoot has also made the transition from amalgam (silver) fillings to resin (white) fillings. Not only is the white filling cosmetically preferable, it is also the safest alternative to the amalgam, which has a great deal of mercury in it, Dr. Ahdoot says.
