As a huge facility that serves millions of passengers each year, JFK airport offers a plethora of services to both travelers and employees.  As just one of those services, JFK airport has an on-site dental facility.

Although available for passengers in-transit, the office mostly provides dental care to the thousands of employees who work at the various terminals and cargo facilities at JFK Airport.

In addition to routine dental care, the dentist often deals with dental injuries that occur at the airport, such as accidents involving equipment, falls, or baggage handling.

The dental office has been in business at the airport since the 1950's, but the current dentist, Dr. Trager, took over in 1985. In addition to NY JFK, he also has dentist offices at both NY LaGuardia Airport, and in Hollis-St.Albans.

The dental clinic is full-service, and can handle all common dental procedures, from filling cavities to tooth implants.

Dr. Trager advertises that he accepts all forms of insurance, including union dental coverage.

Posted office hours at JFK Airport are: 9:30-5:30 Monday to Friday. (It is probably a good idea for patients to call first for appointments.)

Dr. Trager's biography notes that he graduated from Boston University with a Bachelor of Art in Psychology. He then attended Meharry Medical College School of Dentistry, and there received his degree of Doctor of Dental Surgery.
