Modern dental operatory at Luna Dental in Astoria

Thoughtful Care. Not Assembly-Line Dentistry.

Dr. Joshua Ishal opened Luna Dental with a simple idea: slow down, explain everything, and let patients make informed decisions about their own teeth.

That means you'll never hear "you need a crown" without understanding why. You'll see your own X-rays. You'll get options — not a sales pitch.

Implants Done Here. Not Referred Out.

Dr. Ishal places and restores dental implants in-house using CBCT 3D imaging and guided surgical placement. One office, one doctor, one plan from consultation to final crown.

Your CSEA plan covers implants — and at a participating provider like us, there's no balance billing.
