You get the safety and capability you would expect from a hospital, in an office your child actually likes. We handle routine care and complex cases alike, with a full range of comfort and sedation options, and a hospital pathway when a child needs it. When your child needs extensive dental treatment, why settle for multiple stressful office visits? At Bite Squad Dental of NYC, we're the only pediatric dental practice in the area where ALL our doctors have hospital privileges, meaning we can complete your child's entire treatment plan in one comfortable, stress-free hospital session. Visit us at 2464 Coney Island Ave, Brooklyn, NY 11223, to learn how our unique hospital access can transform your child's dental experience.
Dr. Slepak is a pediatric dentist with over a decade of experience. Immediately following his graduation from the New York University College of Dentistry with Honors, Dr. Slepak continued his training at Maimonides Medical Center in the Pediatric Dentistry Residency Program.
During his training, he mastered his knowledge and skills in the treatment of children of all ages.
What Hospital-Quality Means Here
It means we can care for children most offices send away: very young kids, extensive treatment, special needs, and high anxiety. In the office we offer nitrous oxide, oral conscious sedation, and IV sedation. When a child needs general anesthesia, Dr. Slepak completes treatment at a certified hospital where a pediatric anesthesiologist administers and monitors it. The result is one coordinated plan, done safely, without bouncing your family between providers.
What Makes Bite Squad Dental of NYC Different: Exclusive Hospital Access
Unlike other pediatric dental practices, Bite Squad Dental of NYC has something truly rare, dedicated hospital privileges at three major medical facilities. This means when your child needs complex dental work, we don't make you endure multiple traumatic office visits. Instead, we can complete everything in one safe, supervised hospital session under general anesthesia.
Our Hospital Network
NYC Health + Hospitals/South Brooklyn Health (Ruth Bader Ginsburg Hospital, formerly Coney Island Hospital)
Maimonides Medical Center
Queens Hospital Center (NYC Health + Hospitals/Queens)
At each facility, we maintain dedicated operatories on scheduled days, ensuring immediate access when your child needs care.
Why Hospital-Based Treatment Changes Everything for Families
Complete Treatment in One Session
Instead of subjecting your child to multiple stressful appointments, we complete their entire treatment plan in one hospital visit. Your child goes to sleep once and wakes up with all their dental work finished.
Perfect for Special Needs Children
Children with autism, nervous disorders, developmental delays, or sensory sensitivities receive the specialized care they deserve in a controlled, medical environment designed for their comfort and safety.
Immediate Scheduling
Need hospital treatment? We can often arrange it within 24-48 hours, sometimes even next day, because all our doctors maintain active hospital privileges.
Ages 2-9 Served
From the moment your child's first tooth appears through elementary school age, we provide age-appropriate hospital-based care. For children with autism or special needs, we extend care as needed.
When Hospital Treatment is Recommended
- Complex Treatment Plans: Multiple cavities, extractions, or procedures that would normally require several office visits.
- Special Medical Needs: Children with autism, ADHD, sensory processing disorders, or developmental delays.
- Severe Dental Anxiety: When traditional office sedation isn't sufficient.
- Very Young Children: Ages 2-4 who cannot sit still for extended procedures.
- Extensive Oral Surgery: Crown placements, multiple extractions, or reconstructive work.
Our Complete Sedation Options
In-Office Sedation
Nitrous Oxide (Laughing Gas)
Mild relaxation while staying awake and responsive.
Oral Sedation
Liquid or pill medication for deeper relaxation during shorter procedures.
IV Sedation
Administered through a vein for longer procedures or higher anxiety levels.
Hospital-Based General Anesthesia
Complete Sleep Treatment
Your child is fully asleep in a hospital setting with complete medical monitoring, allowing us to finish complex treatments in one comprehensive session.
The Hospital Privilege Difference: Why This Matters
Most pediatric dentists DON'T have hospital privileges. Getting accredited requires:
Extensive credentialing by each hospital
Dedicated operatory space
Specialized training and certifications
Ongoing quality assurance
This is why most practices can only offer office-based sedation, forcing families through multiple traumatic appointments for complex cases.
At Bite Squad Dental of NYC, ALL our doctors maintain these difficult-to-obtain privileges, giving your family options other practices simply cannot provide.
