As of June 1st, 2020 New York State has lifted the restriction on dental offices and we can now begin phasing in patient appointments for both routine dentistry and recall (check-up) visits.

We will be seeing patients by appointment only.  

Please call the office at (718) 761-2090 as days and hours that we will be scheduling appointments may fluctuate at this time.  We are not yet operating according to our standard office hours.

Please be patient as we are all coming into this "new norm" together.  Scheduling patients will not be exactly the same as it was in the past.  We will be working hard to accommodate patients the best we can while keeping our patients, their families and our staff happy and healthy. 

Please click on the "COVID-19 Info" tab on this website for more detailed 

information regarding the steps we have taken to get the office prepared for proper patient care. 

We miss all of our patients and families very much and can't wait to get back to seeing everyone's happy and healthy smiles!!!

Sincerely,  Dr. Merlino and the Entire Team at Todt Hill Pediatric Dentistry

     Here at the office of Dr. Phyllis G. Merlino: Todt Hill Pediatric Dentistry, we are committed to quality dental services that ensure your child continues on the path toward a bright future of good oral health. Our goal is to treat children and young patients with a variety of oral health issues in a calm and caring atmosphere. We understand the importance of treating dental issues for children while also helping the children build a positive attitude toward dental visits and treatments.

     Dr. Merlino is a Board Certified specialist in Pediatric Dentistry and opened this private practice in January of the year 2000.   Dr. Merlino, along with her staff, have continued to provide pediatric dental services to patients in her private practice. The practice is limited to treating children of all ages, as well as those with special physical, mental and healthcare needs. With her team, Dr. Merlino provides children with the necessary oral health care in a calm and comforting environment.

     We understand that children are not always willing to visit the dentist and strive to make the experience of each visit more positive for them. Prior to scheduling an appointment, our team will go over the necessary information that new patients need while also going over any necessary insurance information. We will be happy to answer any questions over the phone or in person on the day of the appointment.

     If you are interested in scheduling an appointment for your child, please

give us a call at (718) 761-2090.
