About Buchanan Dental Arts: Your expert Dental Team in the Hudson Valley

At the heart of our practice is a team dedicated to clinical excellence and compassionate care.

Since 1947, Buchanan Dental Arts has been a cornerstone of dental health in the region. Today, led by Dr. Carlos Garzon,”The Hudson River Valley Expert for Total Dental Care, Smile and Cosmetic Excellence”, our practice has evolved into a premier destination for those seeking more than just routine care. We are the Hudson River Valley dentist residents trust for life-changing restorations and masterful cosmetic artistry.

We remain a trusted dental home for families across Westchester and Putnam Counties. Buchanan Dental Arts have expanded our reach to become a regional authority for the broader Hudson River Valley—serving Cortlandt, Cortlandt Manor, Verplanck, Buchanan, Peekskill, Montrose, Croton On Hudson, Crotonville, Ossining, Garrison, Cold Spring and West Point.

Masterful Care Over Corporate Volume

Rejecting the impersonal nature of corporate dentistry, Dr. Carlos maintains a private, doctor-led sanctuary in Buchanan. Our philosophy centers on the Power of One: honoring the unique biological and personal narrative of every patient:

  • Single Point of Accountability: Unlike corporate offices where you move between different doctors, Dr. Carlos personally manages your entire journey—from surgical implant placement to the final aesthetic restoration.

  • Precision Technology: We utilize 3D Intraoral Scanning (3Shape TRIOS®) to eliminate “gooey” impressions and ensure a perfect fit for every crown, veneer, and implant.

  • At Buchanan Dental Arts, we marry the art of dentistry with the science of light. Leveraging the 100-watt precision Laser Gemini EVO, we provide ‘Accelerated Dentistry’—where surgical excellence meets biological healing. We don’t just treat conditions; we optimize recovery, eliminate fear, and restore confidence through evidence-based technology and elite clinical care.

  • Functional Artistry: We don’t just fix teeth; we restore your dignity, your ability to eat comfortably, and your freedom to smile again.

Our Philosophy: Expert for Total Smile Care and Cosmetic Excellence

At Buchanan Dental Arts, we understand that many of our patients reach a “tipping point” where failing dental work or missing teeth begin to impact their quality of life. 

We don’t just see dental problems; we see the opportunity to restore the person behind the smile. As a premier dentist in the Hudson Valley, our philosophy is rooted in Functional Artistry—the belief that your smile should be as strong and stable as it is beautiful.

By combining Dr. Carlos’ surgical expertise in dental implants with a master-level eye for cosmetic design, we replace dental anxiety with a sense of security and renewed dignity. 

We believe in a doctor-led, where every full-mouth reconstruction and smile makeover is treated as a personal masterpiece, never a corporate procedure.

Discover Buchanan Dental Arts, where advanced science secures your health and tailored artistry restores your confidence. We invite you and your family to experience world-class dentistry delivered with a human touch in the heart of Westchester County and the Hudson River Valley.

Our Technology in Buchanan Dental Arts

Our Technology

Intraoral Scanner

Our 3Shape TRIOS® intraoral scanner replaces messy, uncomfortable traditional impressions with a fast, comfortable digital scan. A small camera gently captures your teeth in full color, creating a highly accurate 3D model on screen in seconds.

This lets Dr. Carlos — and you — clearly see your teeth, gums, and bite from every angle, improving diagnosis, treatment planning, and communication. The result is more precise crowns, veneers, bridges, and implants that fit perfectly from the start, with fewer adjustments and better outcomes.

Patients love the comfort (no gagging or goo), the speed, and the amazing “wow” moment of seeing their own digital smile instantly.

Dental Cone Beam CT

Dental Cone Beam CT

The advanced Dental Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) technology — a state-of-the-art 3D imaging system that takes your dental care to the next level.

This powerful technology allows us to:

  • Plan treatments with exceptional accuracy (such as dental implants, orthodontics, or complex surgeries)
  • Detect issues that might not show up on standard X-rays
  • Ensure safer, more predictable outcomes for your care

Intraoral Camera

Your Content Goes Here

The MouthWatch Intraoral Camera is a digital camera designed to take high-quality photos inside a patient’s mouth.

It captures clear intraoral images (teeth, gums, restorations, cracks, etc.) directly at the chairside, helping us to:

  • Examine areas that are hard to see with the naked eye or mirrors
  • Document conditions for patient records
  • Share visuals instantly on a screen

Patients see exactly what the dentist sees, making problems more understandable. It also helps track changes over time (e.g., before/after treatment or monitoring conditions).
