Detailed Introduction

Dr. Jay Family Dental is a holistic and biological dental practice located in Vernon, CT, led by Dr. Krithika Jayaprakash, often referred to as "Dr. Jay." The practice is distinguished by its patient-centered philosophy, which emphasizes the critical link between oral health and the body's overall well-being. Dr. Jay and her team are dedicated to providing comprehensive, metal-free, and biocompatible dental care, utilizing the latest technology and techniques. A core tenet of the practice is its commitment to biological dentistry, which means avoiding materials and procedures that could potentially harm a patient's systemic health. Dr. Jay Family Dental is a mercury-safe and mercury-free office, certified in the Safe Mercury Amalgam Removal Technique (SMART) by the International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology (IAOMT). This ensures the safe removal of old silver fillings, protecting both patients and staff from unnecessary mercury exposure. Dr. Jay is an expert in metal-free solutions, particularly ceramic (zirconia) implants, which are a strong, durable, and aesthetically pleasing alternative to traditional titanium implants. These biocompatible implants are a key offering for patients with metal sensitivities or those seeking a more natural tooth replacement. The clinic also specializes in airway-focused dentistry, addressing sleep-disordered breathing in both children and adults with appliances like ALF and Myobrace to enhance jaw alignment and overall health. Other services include general dentistry, cosmetic dentistry, orthodontics, and restorative treatments, all performed with a holistic approach. Dr. Jay is a Fellow of the Academy of General Dentistry (FAGD) and a member of several prestigious associations, including the Holistic Dental Association. The practice prioritizes patient education, using modern technology like CAD/CAM and ozone therapy to ensure a positive, comfortable, and state-of-the-art dental experience.

Dr. Jay, as a dentist, is probably good at her job but she did a great disservice to my mother. She chose to address my mother's broken tooth by causing damage to the tooth next to it by bonding the broken tooth to the good one which then also broke (likely due to being over-stressed). My mom trusted her to fix her tooth, trusted her to stand by her work, trusted her to follow through on services paid for in full but in stead, after causing more damage, Dr Jay refused to stand by her work, refused to even look at the result her actions and then refused my mother as a continuing patient.

Apparently, receiving sub-par services is all that is needed to warrant the ire and abandonment by Dr. Jay.

Dr. Jay is an exceptional dentist. I used to be terrified to go to the dentist, but thanks to Dr. Jay, I look forward to going to see her. She is extremely patient, compassionate, and competent. She takes the time to explain everything to me without being condescending. She placed a ceramic implant and did such a beautiful job.

I can't even tell that it's an implant because she matched the color of the crown to my natural teeth so well. Additionally, her staff are wonderful, patient, and very helpful. Lisa and Vanessa work at the front desk and are always happy to help and answer all of my billing questions. Wonderful dentist and a wonderful team. I highly recommend Dr. Jay.

I would give Dr Jay and her team 10 stars if I could. She and her team are professional, knowledgeable, personable, kind and best of all holistic & integrative! I travel 2.5 hours round trip to see her and I couldn't' be happier with my care.

Very compassionate professional with a great staff of all very compassionate people…they all took the time to really listen and paid attention to my concerns. I’ve not been to a dentist in almost eight years (and the covid psy op really made me lose trust in the entire system).

I appreciated Dr Jay’s understanding and her willingness to be open and to talk to me about all the different options. Definitely a trustworthy practice with the best intentions! And…she can do almost anything there in the office and doesn’t have to refer people out for a la carte services!
