I’ve actually had very bad work done at Corning Dental. I had a chip on my tooth that they told me they needed to fill. They did a composite filling. They clearly were not good at doing a composite filling — I later learned that they set or dried the tooth improperly.
My tooth felt like it was going to explode I was in so much pain. The improperly done composite needed to be removed and re-​filled — this time with amalgam (metal). The second filling worked, but was MUCH larger than the original filling.
The tooth is now permanently sensitive. Good for cleanings, but avoid getting work done here.

I have been going to Corning Dental Associates for years and years. We moved away from the area and returning to Corning years later. I tried other dentists in the area for my kids and myself with each experience being never up to the service, the quality of people and their skills and the professionalism of the staff and office never meeting Corning Dental Associates. We have had all sorts of treatments in the decades we have gone to this fabulous dentist group… and all have been relatively pain free and proactive. They also are plugged into a great group of oral surgeons, so our double wisdom teeth extractions (2 kids back to back) was easy, affordable and the patients were up in running in no time with no issues or infections.
We now live an hour north of Corning and still make th trek to Corning Dental to continue our relationship and receive the best dental care in the area.

Thanks to a couple of painful cavities, I decided to call up Corning Dental and see what they could do for me. They had me come in the next day and were able to quickly fix my teeth. The dental assistant and Dr. Vargas were so nice, patient, and friendly. I’ve never been to a dentist who has been personable, so this was a refreshing change.
The building is clean, inside and out. The receptionists are kind and professional. I’ll recommend this place to everyone!
