A Champion for Educational Care

Meet Dr. Olena Ronan

Dr. Olena Ronan was born in Ukraine and grew up in Brooklyn, NY. During high school, she developed a passion for dentistry while shadowing a local dentist. She started shadowing simply because she was looking for an extracurricular activity to put on her college resume; she didn’t expect to fall in love with the field of dentistry! Dr. Ronan became so interested and passionate about dentistry, that she decided to pursue it as a career before she even started college. Dr. Ronan attended City University of New York, Hunter College where she received her Bachelor of Arts degree in economics. From there, Dr. Ronan attended New York University, College of Dentistry to complete her dental education

However, after completing dental school, Dr. Ronan became discouraged with the field of dentistry, as every associate position she held constrained her in how she could treat patients. She knew that in order to practice according to her ethics and standard of care, she would need to open up a practice of her own! This is where the idea of Staten Island Dental Boutique was born.

Today, her goal is to provide patients with a comfortable environment in which they can receive exceptional care while learning about how to care for their smiles. Dr. Ronan will always do everything in her power to answer questions, help you understand any treatment, and empower you to make the best decision for your smile according to your lifestyle, budget, and personal goals. She always upholds the principles of honesty, transparency, and communication. Therefore, she vows not to commit to any treatment unless the patient themselves understands and is confident that this is the correct treatment for them.

What she enjoys most about being a dentist is being able to restore people's health while transforming their smiles aesthetically, too. Pairing her artistic eye with her extensive education and training, you can rest assured that your smile is in good hands with Dr. Ronan.

Outside of the office, Dr. Ronan can be found hanging out with her parrot, Lago, binge watching shows on Netflix, or exploring new restaurants with her husband. As a self-proclaimed foodie, Dr. Ronan is happy to dole out any restaurant recommendations if you’re looking to try a new place!

What to do in a Dental Emergency

KEEP CALM & REDUCE BLEEDING

Dental injuries can turn a normal day into a stressful and painful experience, but it's important to remain calm. Remember that we are here to assist you. By taking a few deep breaths and assessing the situation, you'll be better equipped to make the right decisions in an emergency. If your dental injury or accident is causing bleeding, apply pressure to the affected area with a clean piece of gauze. Keep the gauze in place until the bleeding stops or until you can reach our office for further treatment.

CONTROL SWELLING & PAIN

Pain medication such as ibuprofen or acetaminophen can temporarily reduce pain or swelling. Avoid blood-thinning medications such as aspirin as they can make it difficult to control the bleeding. Along with medication, you can also reduce pain by using a cold compress, such as an ice pack, on the cheek or lip near the affected area.

CALL US RIGHT AWAY

After composing your dental emergency, call us right away. Even if you're not certain if your situation is an emergency, our team will evaluate the severity of the injury and schedule an appointment as soon as possible to provide the necessary care. That way, you can get out of pain and restore the health of your tooth.

The Importance of Prompt Emergency Care

Same-Day Dental Care

Looking for immediate care? Same-day dentistry gets you in our office right away, so you can quickly get back to a healthy oral state. During your visit, your dentist will examine the dental injury and craft an immediate plan to heal and restore your smile that very same day.

After Hours Appointments

Not all dental emergencies happen during business hours! That’s why we offer after-hours appointments for patients experiencing emergencies that can’t wait to be treated. Call our office to schedule an appointment if you are experiencing a dental emergency beyond our usual hours. Our team will do everything we can to work with your schedule, alleviate your pain, and get your smile back to thriving health.

Weekend Appointments

If a dental emergency occurs over the weekend, there’s no need for you to wait in pain until Monday for an appointment. Our office provides limited weekend availability and appointments by request to ensure you receive the immediate treatment you deserve.

Problem-Focused Exams

When issues arise, our team can perform problem-focused exams (also known as limited exams) to help address the issues. Limited exams allow us to focus on what’s hurting or injured so we can get you out of pain and back to normal again.

Digital X-Rays & Imaging

Better diagnostics means better results. With modern imaging techniques, we can quickly and accurately assess your dental emergency, and create a treatment plan right away, so you can relieve your dental pain and get back to your life.

Frequently Asked Questions

Check out these frequently asked questions, or call us to speak with our team.

What should I do if I’ve knocked out a tooth?

If you've accidentally knocked out a tooth, it's important to act quickly to increase the chances of saving it. First, carefully pick up the tooth by the top (crown) and avoid touching the root. Rinse it gently with warm water to remove any debris, being careful not to scrub or rub it. If possible, try to place the tooth back into its socket without forcing it. If it doesn't go back in easily, store it in a container of cold milk and contact us immediately for guidance and to ensure we are prepared for your visit. Time is of the essence, as the tooth needs to be replaced and splinted within 1-2 hours to avoid further damage.

What should I do if my dental work has fallen out?

If any of your dental work, such as a filling or crown, has fallen out, it's important to take action promptly. Place the dental work in a plastic bag or container and bring it with you to our office. Call us right away to schedule an emergency visit so we can address the issue as soon as possible. Even though it's not a natural tooth, losing dental work can expose vulnerable parts of your mouth to bacteria, leading to infection, decay, or other complications. Don't delay in getting in touch with us to ensure your smile is restored with restorative dental work.

What should I do about a severe toothache?

If you're experiencing a severe toothache that lasts for 2 or more days, it could indicate a tooth infection, which requires immediate attention. Contact us without delay to schedule an appointment. In the meantime, you can manage the pain by applying a cold compress to your cheek, taking over-the-counter pain medication, or using a topical product like Orajel to numb the tooth. However, it's crucial to seek professional dental care to address the underlying cause of the toothache and prevent further complications. Root canal therapy may be necessary to save the tooth.

What should I do about a chipped, broken or cracked tooth?

If you have a chipped, broken, or cracked tooth, it's essential to seek professional dental care as soon as possible. Without a thorough examination, it's difficult to determine the severity of the damage. Leaving such issues untreated can lead to infections and additional complications that could have been prevented. Contact us immediately to schedule an appointment and allow us to assess the extent of the damage. We will provide guidance and recommendations on how to restore and protect your smile, as well as alleviate any dental pain you may be experiencing.

What should I do about a loose tooth?

If you have a loose tooth due to a dental injury, it's crucial to contact us right away to schedule a same-day appointment. Leaving a loose tooth untreated can result in the nerves supporting the tooth dying, leading to its loss. To maintain stability, avoid touching the loose tooth with your tongue or fingers. When you arrive at our office for emergency care, your dentist will attach the loose tooth to the adjacent teeth with a stabilizing splint. This splint will provide support and initiate the healing process, allowing the tooth to reattach itself to your gums. Don't hesitate to reach out for our help – we are here to assist you in preserving your tooth.
