Dental Implants
Report
There are two types of dental implant procedures – endosteal implants and subperiosteal implants – each of which involves a 2-step process. Both procedures results in permanent replacement teeth that are virtually indistinguishable from natural teeth.
If you have one or more missing teeth, you may think that dentures or removable prosthetics are your only options. While these are still viable choices for many people, dental implants present a much more appealing option for people with otherwise healthy gums and jawbones.

Dental Crowns & Bridges
Report
If you have a tooth that’s been significantly damaged due to trauma or that has decayed a great deal over time, you may be a candidate for dental crowns. A crown is, essentially, a cap that’s installed and cemented into place over an existing tooth. Once the crown is in place, it will look and feel as if you have a full set of perfectly shaped, natural teeth again. Crowns have many benefits including: restoring strength, size, and aesthetics to your teeth, and giving you back your smile.
TMJ / TMD Treatment
Report
If you suspect that you have TMJ/TMD, call us today to schedule a consultation. When you come in for your first appointment, Drs. Galligan and Villa will perform a physical examination of your jaw joint and facial muscles. He’ll be looking for tenderness and pain, as well as proper function in this examination. He will also take X-rays of your jaw to determine what’s going on with it and how to proceed with treatments.
Treatments may be as simple as taking an over-the-counter anti-inflammatory and eating soft foods for a few days whenever you have a flare-up. However, if you’re suffering from frequent inflammation and/or lockjaw, Drs. Galligan and Villa may recommend further treatments, including medications to help you deal with stress without grinding or clenching your teeth, a splint or night guard to keep your jaw in the correct position when you sleep, and/or dental crowns, cosmetic bonding, or porcelain veneers to repair wear and tear from grinding your teeth.

I loved my former dentist, but he retired a few years ago. Drs. Galligan and Villa came highly recommended, and I am so glad I found them. They are close to my home and have such convenient hours. They are extremely efficient and knowledgeable about insurance. I am impressed that they are able to tell me almost to the penny what I will pay out of pocket after insurance. And of course, the staff is friendly and professional.

I've been going here for over 10 years. Dr. Thomas Galligan, Dr. Ryan Galligan and Dr. Villa are masters -- they're friendly, fair and just great people. I recommend every friend to them for a reason. They have a great staff that is ALWAYS on schedule which is rare for any doctor. They're far and away the best in Staten Island and a top contender in the NYC area.

After a bad experience @ another Dental office, I was referred to the office of Dr. Villa & Dr. Galligan. After being examined by Dr. Villa who took the time to explain exactly what was going on with my teeth, I met with Dr. Ryan Galligan who performed a extraction on a severely broken & problematic tooth. He did a great job, and I will definitely be referring them to my friends & family, and will be continuing to use them as my Primary. My experience was great overall , even the staff was so helpful. A+++

I'm been a patient of Drs Villa and Galligan for the past 30 years. I've moved away but still come back to visit. I'm moving even farther away and they have even offered to find me a reputable dentist in my new location. I have used all three dentists and they have all been very courteous and professional along with a very courteous and professional office staff. They provide a full range of dental services and now even more. Thank you all for taking good care of all my dental needs.

Let’s face it most of us don’t love going to the dentist. But the people at Galligan and Villa make it a great experience. From the minute you walk through the door till you walk back out again you are at ease. The professional staff is friendly and easy to talk to (except when they are working on your teeth). They understand the anxiety about doing to the dentist. Definitely a go to dental group for any issues one may have.

Dr. Galligan was highly recommend. My dentist I usually go to hours weren't convienient for me anymore .I needed attention ASAP because of a broken tooth under a cap. I was a little nervous trying someone new But the minute I walked through the door I felt at ease. Staff is very friendly and courteous. Dr. Galligan was amazing !!! Very thorough exam and very caring.
He tried to save my broken tooth but couldn't because it was so badly broken. I opted for a bridge and in no time he got to work removing the broken tooth and root. Couple of stitches and an instant temporary bridge. I was amazed at how fast and accurate his work was.100% pain free I love my new Dentist.

If I could give them 10 stars I would. The staff is extremely nice, always get me in when I have an emergency. I am usually terrified of the dentist, but the doctors always make you feel relaxed and calm and are really good with dealing with babies like myself. Hours are also great. So glad I found them.

I have been going to Galligan & Villa for over 15 years, ever since I returned home from serving on Active Duty in the Army. Now that I am in the Army Reserves I am required to have a dental exam and teeth cleaning every 6 months. I absolutely love him and his office staff. They are very friendly and very professional. There is such positive energy in that office! I’ve also had my teeth whitened a couple of times. I’ve recommended numerous friends and coworkers and they’ve all been very happy. There is never a wait, the dental chair is very comfortable, and they play fantastic music!!!

I went there to get my wisdom tooth pulled and I was panicking for no reason Dr.Ryan knows what he was doing my tooth didn't hurt once I went in on a Friday after noon and I was able to go about my weekend with no pain or uncomfort. Highly recommend them there staff is super nice and everyone is very friendly.

Ever get a horrible toothache at 2am on a Saturday? I did 19 years ago and searched the internet looking for a dentist that would take an emergency. I was new to Staten Island and had not been to a dentist in a few years. I must have left messages with about 10 dental offices and was not too hopeful being that it was the middle of the night and also knowing that I was not a regular patient for any of them.
I had left a message with the answering service and soon after I received a return call from Dr Galligan. He felt so bad about my pain that he told me to come to his office first thing. It was a Sunday and his office was closed but he opened the office at 8 am just to treat my toothache. I will never forget that day. Dr. Galligan treated me like family and has been my dentist ever since.
He even called me later that evening to see how I was feeling. He does this every time I have a procedure done. He and his staff are nothing short of exceptional. He is the most professional and compassionate dentist I have ever met. His assistants are wonderful as well, especially DJ and Candy who are super caring, friendly and knowledgeable. His front desk staff are also excellent!
The whole office staff go above and beyond to ensure a positive patient experience. I now travel from New Jersey to go to him. I would and have recommended him to all of my family and friends.
