Why Our Patients Love Warm Towels After Their Visit

Comfort in Every Detail

When you picture a dental appointment, you probably imagine the usual routine: a bright light overhead, a thorough cleaning, maybe some X-rays or treatment. But at Park Slope Dental Arts, we’ve worked hard to make sure your experience is about more than just dental care; it’s about feeling seen, cared for, and genuinely comfortable from start to finish.

Our Brooklyn practice is tucked into a charming Park Slope brownstone on 3rd Street, surrounded by tree-lined sidewalks and the energy of one of the city’s most family-friendly neighborhoods. Just like the neighborhood itself, our office blends modern style with warmth and familiarity. From the moment you step inside, you’ll notice it’s not your typical dental office.

We believe it’s the little things that make the biggest difference. That’s why patients consistently rave about one simple yet unforgettable touch: the warm towel we offer after their visit.

“We believe that comfort is just as important as care. Even small touches, like offering a warm towel, can make a big difference in how patients feel about their visit,” adds Dr. Edward Lee, DMD, at Park Slope Dental Arts.

The Warm Towel Touch: More Than a Luxury

Why do we offer warm towels? Because sometimes the smallest gestures create the biggest impact.

After a cleaning or treatment, patients often want a way to freshen up, whether it’s wiping away the fluoride polish, rinsing off water, or simply taking a moment to breathe. The warm towel provides that moment of calm.

It’s more than just a nice extra; it’s a reflection of our philosophy: your comfort matters just as much as your dental health.

• Soothing the senses – The gentle warmth eases away tension, helping you leave feeling refreshed.
• A finishing touch – It’s like the bow on top of a gift, an intentional sign that your experience matters to us, right down to the last detail.
• Emotional reassurance – If you feel nervous or stressed, something as simple as a warm towel can remind you that you’re in a place where people truly care.

In a fast-paced borough like Brooklyn, where schedules are packed and time is precious, those few seconds of relaxation can be exactly what a patient needs to walk back out into the world with a smile.

“Patients remember how they felt during their visit, not just the treatment. Small gestures of care help build trust and confidence in every step of their dental journey,” emphasizes Dr. Lee.

How We Prioritize Patient Experience

At Park Slope Dental Arts, everything we do is designed to make your dental experience comfortable, and, dare we say, enjoyable. Here’s how:

Calming Environment

Our office isn’t a sterile, intimidating clinic; it’s a space where you feel at home. The brownstone exterior gives a nod to Brooklyn’s rich history, while the inside is designed with a bright, modern feel and advanced dental technology. Patients tell us it feels like a place they want to return to, not one they’re eager to leave.

Parents love that the environment is welcoming for kids. Professionals appreciate the calm atmosphere that gives them a break from their busy schedules. No matter who you are, you’ll find a space where you can feel relaxed while you get the care you need.

Friendly, Gentle Staff

Behind every good dental experience is a team that genuinely loves what they do. Our dentists and staff bring not just advanced skills, but also a personal touch meant to help you feel safe.

• Dr. Edward Lee brings both expertise and easygoing warmth as a Brooklyn native.
• Dr. Cheryl Poon and Dr. Nancy Yu make pediatric visits less scary and more fun with their gentle care and even a few “mom jokes.”
• Dr. Careen Fletcher has a gift for calming anxious patients with her empathetic approach.

Our hygienists and support staff also play a huge role. Patients often say they feel like they’re visiting friends rather than a dental clinic.

Modern Amenities

We know that comfort isn’t just about kindness; it’s also about efficiency and precision. That’s why we’ve invested in technology that makes dentistry easier, faster, and less invasive.

• iTero® digital impressions eliminate the need for messy, uncomfortable molds.
• Guided Biofilm Therapy provides gentler, more thorough cleanings.
• OralDNA® testing helps detect hidden risks, giving patients peace of mind.

These advanced tools mean fewer surprises, less discomfort, and better outcomes. You can read more about our technology here.

What Patients Are Saying

Our patients’ words speak louder than anything we could say ourselves. Here are just a few of the heartfelt reviews that show how we prioritize comfort, care, and experience:

• • “Best dental experience in my whole life. Dr. Eddie Lee went above and beyond to make sure my visit was memorable. Highly recommended office with comfortable chairs, friendly staff, new technology, and clean environment. Best of all, it was easy finding street parking!” -Vanna

• “I love Dr. Lee! He has a soft touch and great chair side manner. I trust him and he has never steered me wrong. The office is beautiful and state-of-the-art. Finally can watch TV while sitting up or lying down. The staff is professional and welcoming. I highly recommend Park Slope Dental Arts. You will not be disappointed.” -Beth

For us, these testimonials are reminders that the details matter. When patients feel valued and respected, dentistry becomes less about procedures and more about relationships.
