Get to know Dentist Dr. Clifford E. Degel, who serves patients in Astoria, New York. 

 

With over 25 years of experience helping patients maintain, restore, and revitalize their smiles, Dr. Degel is considered a top dentist in Queens. He is known for exquisite cosmetic and restorative dentistry work at his state-of-the-art, full service practice, Astoria Dental Group.

 

Astoria Dental Group offers an unparalleled level of service and a wide range of advanced dental treatments, including oral conscious sedation. Led by Dr. Degel and his wife, Dr. Carmen Every-Degel, Astoria Dental Group uses the latest in advanced technology and techniques to deliver premium quality dental procedures in an office that caters to the patient’s needs and comfort. Their greatest priority is helping patients achieve healthy, beautiful smiles while ensuring their complete comfort and satisfaction.

 

Dr. Degel attended Archbishop Molloy High School and St. John’s University. He attended dental school at Georgetown University, where he received his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree. It is there that he also first met his now-wife, Carmen.

 

Born and raised in New York, Dr. Degel loves the area and the people. He is passionate about his chosen career, particularly the role he is able to play in the well-being of his patients. Using advanced cosmetic dentistry and restorative dentistry techniques, Dr. Degel has been instrumental in changing the lives of his patients, restoring severely compromised smiles to full function and aesthetic beauty.

 

Dr. Degel is a member of the American Dental Association, the Academy of General Dentistry, the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, the International Congress of Oral Implantologists, the American Society of Osseointegration, and the American College of Oral Implantology. Furthermore, he is certified in implantology and invisalign. 

 

General dentists, like Dr. Degel, provide a wide array of services that are vital to patients’ continued health. These services include: preventive services — helping to maintain good oral health by stopping disease before it takes hold in the mouth; restorative services — receiving timely and appropriate treatment when a problem is identified; as well as cosmetic services — performing a range of cosmetic procedures, such as teeth whitening, cosmetic bonding – even porcelain veneers. General dentists also address overall health concerns, as oral health is seen as the mirror of general health.

 

Dr. Degel’s superior quality care in dentistry has earned him distinguished recognition. He has been featured on “Top Docs” and the December 2002 issue of Vogue, celebrating best care providers of the Tri-State Area. He was also named one of America’s Top Dentists in 2005-2006 by the Consumers Research Council of America.

 

Dr. Degel attributes his success to his dedication to patient care, his continued education, and his love for dentistry. In his spare time, he enjoys playing golf, watching Yankees baseball and Giants football, as well as spending time with his family and friends. Dr. Degel and his wife Carmen have three beautiful daughters together, and the family loves to travel whenever their time allows.
