What the record tells you
Pediatric Dentistry of Albany, PLLC is an NPI registry record for a dental organization at 980 Western Ave in Albany, New York 12203. CMS issued NPI 1881936441 on 21 March 2013, and the practice last updated its own entry on 11 July 2023. That was 3 years ago; the details are probably current, but confirm the address when you book.
It is registered under 5 dental taxonomy codes: Dental anesthesiology (1223D0004X), General practice dentistry (1223G0001X), Pediatric dentistry (1223P0221X), Oral and maxillofacial surgery (1223S0112X), Orthodontics and dentofacial orthopedics (1223X0400X). That puts it in 5 categories on this site, led by pediatric dentistry. A practice that registers more than one category is telling CMS it does more than one kind of dental work at this address, which is why it has a page here rather than a row. No other address in the registry carries this name, though a practice trading under a chain brand often registers each office under its own legal name, so check the brand as well.
Albany holds 55 registered dental practices inside the Albany-Schenectady-Troy, NY area, which has 219 in total on the New York side and ranks 4th in the state. 3 of the Albany records also register pediatric dentistry, so this is one of only a handful of local options in that category. Across the metro the mix runs general dentistry 67.6%, dental clinic or center 14.2%, orthodontics 8.2%. The closest other registered practices are Decker, Sbuttoni, Boghosian, Dicerbo Specialists in Orthodontics (0 miles, Albany), Bresin and Barclay Dentists PC (0.1 miles, Albany) and David Levine (0.2 miles, Albany), with 2 more inside 0.9 miles.
On our figures a routine adult cleaning in New York runs $150 to $250 cash and scaling and root planing $225 to $370 per quadrant, against a US average of $125. This practice's own prices are not in the registry and never will be: NPPES holds identifiers, not fees. Call (518) 512-3072 and ask for the cash price on code D1110, whether the exam and X-rays are included, and whether they run a membership plan if you have no insurance.

What to ask when you call
- The cash price for D1110, a routine adult cleaning, and whether the exam (D0120) and X-rays (D0274) are inside or outside that number.
- Whether you need scaling and root planing before a routine clean, and the per-quadrant price for D4341 or D4342 if so.
- Whether they run an in-house membership plan, and what it covers against what it costs a year.
- Whether they are taking new patients and how far out the next hygiene appointment is.
- The practice license, with your state dental board. An NPI is a billing identifier and proves nothing about licensing.

NPI registry records, status as reported by CMS in the August 2026 data dissemination file. NPPES is an identifier registry, not a license register: an NPI does not validate that a practice is licensed, accredited or currently open. Practices maintain their own NPPES entries. Every page shows the date the record was last updated; addresses and phone numbers are as self-reported and are not verified by us. This page describes a registry record.

Price figures are our own, last verified April 2026. State averages are our estimates compiled from FAIR Health regional cost data and CMS Medicare fee schedules; the ADA discontinued its national Survey of Dental Fees in 2023, so no national fee survey exists.
