Referral boundary

What Dunning handles in-house, and what gets referred.

Most family dental care is completed in the Johnstown office. When a case requires a specialist, the office coordinates a referral with a trusted local provider so nothing gets lost between offices.

  • In-house: exams, cleanings, X-rays, fillings, crowns, bridges, extractions, cosmetic work, dentures, and the restoration of dental implants after surgical placement.
  • Referred to a specialist: surgical implant placement, orthodontics, complex root canals, oral surgery beyond routine extractions, and pediatric cases outside the practice's age or complexity policy.

The choice to refer is always about what protects the patient's outcome, not about the office schedule.

Not sure where to start

Common starting points.

Emergency

Urgent dental concern?

For active tooth pain, swelling, a broken tooth, or a lost crown, call the office. The front desk will ask a few questions and help find the earliest appropriate opening. For difficulty breathing, uncontrolled bleeding, severe facial swelling, or trauma involving more than just teeth, go to the emergency department first.

Common service questions

Practical answers, plainly written.

What services do you offer?
Dunning Family Dental provides family dentistry across six service lines: general and preventive care, restorative dentistry (fillings, crowns, bridges), cosmetic dentistry (whitening, bonding, veneers), implant restorations (crowns and bridges on implants placed by an oral surgeon), emergency dentistry, and family care across life stages. Specialty work such as surgical implant placement, orthodontics, or complex root canals is referred to trusted specialists. Each service page has full detail.
Do you place dental implants?
Dunning restores implants. That means the crown, bridge, or denture that sits on top of an implant fixture is made and placed here. The surgical placement of the fixture itself is referred to a trusted oral surgeon. Dr. D'Addio coordinates the referral and the restorative plan so the surgeon and the restorative team work from the same plan throughout.
Do you see children?
Dunning cares for children as part of family dentistry. There is a practical minimum age at which routine care is offered here, and there are cases where a pediatric dental home is a better fit. Call the office to discuss a specific child's situation, and if a pediatric referral is the right call, the front desk will point you to a local pediatric dentist.
Do you see emergency patients?
Yes. For active dental pain, broken teeth, lost crowns or fillings, or sudden dental swelling, call 518-842-3220 during office hours. The front desk will triage and identify the earliest appropriate opening. For after-hours dental concerns involving difficulty breathing, uncontrolled bleeding, severe facial swelling, or trauma involving more than just teeth, go to the emergency department first.
How do I schedule?
Call 518-842-3220 during office hours. A short phone call lets the front desk match the right visit type to your situation, confirm what to bring, send Dental Intel forms to your phone or email, and answer insurance questions before you arrive.

The best way to start is a phone call.
