Welcome

Cosmetic Dentist Tampa, FL - Vivian Medina, DDS

We strive to provide you with the latest in technology, the most natural of smiles, but most importantly, the comfort and care you deserve. We will go out of our way for you every time. Guaranteed. It's our commitment to you.

We offer comprehensive dentistry at our office, ranging from a procedure as simple as a cleaning to a complete full-mouth restoration. Some patients seek us for the latest in whitening, others wanting the perfect smile. However, our highest compliment is when a new patient seeks us because of how comfortable a friend or family member felt at our office.

WHAT TO EXPECT!

From the moment you arrive, expect the unexpected.  We know your time is essential and respect this.

You will find that we maintain our entire office spotless. Much attention has been spent on details. We want you to enjoy the art on the walls, the massage chairs in the treatment room, and aromatic neck pillows if you so desire. We have music playing throughout the office to create a soothing and relaxing environment. We have beverages for you. We make it, so you don't want to leave us at the end of your visit.

**COVID-19**

Due to these unprecedented times, we have had to take additional protocols to ensure the safety of all our patients and staff. In the past, we have utilized lab coats, eyewear, masks, and gloves to maintain a safe dental environment. However, moving forward we are taking additional measures such as using:

  • K95 or higher filtration masks/respirators
  • Face shields
  • Head coverings
  • Additional HEPA filtration devices in waiting room and in each operatory room to clean & purify air
  • CDC approved pre-rinse used before any dental procedure
  • Portable UV light that cleans and sterilizes each operatory room and office space, several times a day
  • Extraoral suction device used by both the Doctor and Hygienist while delivering patient care that produces aerosols
  • Having a cleaning agency clean our office with EPA approved solution against SARS-CoV 2 and COVID-19
  • Sanitation station in each operatory room and waiting room

WHAT'S NEW!

We are !!! Our new state of the art dental facility has been designed with every detail in mind. Call or stop by for a visit. We are also always available to address any concerns you may have.

TROUBLE SLEEPING ?  BEEN TOLD YOU SNORE ? FEELING TIRED DURING THE DAY ?

You may be one of the millions of Americans undiagnosed with Obstructive Sleep Apnea. During your periodic evaluation, we will screen you for this condition. We will inform you of the warning signs and methods of treatment. Many people have high blood pressure, diabetes, depression, fatigue, and many health issues directly related to the lack of proper sleep and deprived oxygen. We have a dedicated patient sleep coordinator to assist you with any questions or concerns you may have following your examination.

PAINFUL JOINTS ? DIFFICULTY CHEWING OR BAD BITE?

A bad bite may be the culprit of many headaches, neck pain, or TMJ. We offer a different approach to correcting your bite. We let the muscles of your face and jaw determine where your bite should be. It makes perfect sense if your muscles are happy, there will be a significant reduction in your pain.

COSMETIC DENTISTRY...  VENEERS

Dental veneers are custom-designed shells of tooth-like ceramic material. They cover worn tooth enamel, uneven tooth alignment, correct spacing concerns, chips, or cracks. They can match the natural color of your teeth or change the shade dramatically if you so desire. Veneers create a bright, white smile with beautifully aligned teeth.

WE ARE ALWAYS STRIVING TO EXCEED YOUR EXPECTATIONS OF US. ALLOW US THE PRIVILEDGE TO CARE FOR YOUR DENTAL NEEDS AND THAT OF YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY.

Our doctor has continued to enhance her training at this prestigious institution. We are committed to being the best.

Testimonials

What Our Clients Say About Us

    I really enjoyed my visit to the dentist. Dr. Medina and all her staff were very professional, made me feel very comfortable, and answered all the questions I had. I felt safe inside because the cleanliness and all the safety protocols followed including taking the patient’s temperature. I highly recommend Dr. Medina to everybody.

    Daniel C.

    Dr. Medina & her staff are beyond everything one could hope for in a dental practice. I've had a lot of old work that was in dire need of renewal done with them & the beautiful outcome does a lot of good for the soul. Highly recommend this dental practice & very grateful they were recommended to me.

    Phyllis A.

    Let me preface this with: I am someone that does NOT enjoy going to the dentist. It makes me very anxious and it's all around not a good time. I went to this office for the first time earlier this week and it was the best experience I've ever had at a dentist appointment. They were thorough in explaining to me what was going on with my teeth. Any questions or concerns that I had were address immediately, removing any fear of the unknown. I actually had to go 2 days in a row (which normally would be something that I was miserable about all week), but by the time I arrived at my second appointment, I already felt like I was just going in to hang out. Angela worked on my teeth and chatted to me like I was a friend. Her mission was making sure I was as comfortable as possible and she succeeded. After 2 visits, I am already happier with my smile. I will absolutely, without a doubt, be making this the dentist that I continue to see in the future.

    Ashley J.

    Total Spa Day for my teeth!! Angela was the best Hygienist i have ever had, she was thorough, and explained everything. Dr Medina's office is super clean and they follow all the safety protocols, so I felt very safe.

    Lucia G.

    I have been a patient at Dr Medinas for 4+ years now but have never thought to review her practice. We have always had good experience. Typically when I find the great auto mechanic etc. I’m hesitant to praise for fear of not being seen timely, because the word has spread. Voice of experience. In this case I felt that my stinginess to share my experience’s in this area, was wrong. My body is a tartar making machine so I see Nicole for cleanings three or four times a year. She has always been kind and thoughtful to me. She also has inspired me in my daily hygiene routine to include electronic toothbrush, flossing and water picking routines. As well as keeping me informed about progress and aware of dangers like bacteria to the circulatory system. And the great experience typically comes from the top with Dr Medina. She has always made time for me and has referred me to specialists that I am confident, will treat me with care just like they provide. I definitely recommend Dr. Medina and her staff. Making and being reminded of appointments is made simple by the friendly and professional reception staff.

    William W.

    Maribel R.
