Great team and friendly service. Very clean and comfortable. I like the "small office" feel that doesn't compromise on any of the latest procedures and technology. Just moved to the area and happy to find such a great dentist close to home.

I've gone to the same dentist in NJ for half my life but we needed to find a new one when we moved to FL. We had a horrible experience at the first one we tried here but we saw Coconut Grove Dental in the neighborhood and it looked nice so we tried it. I'm glad we did. The office was clean, the staff was friendly and my teeth are squeaky clean! My husband hates going to the dentist and he was impressed also. Dr. Fontecilla is great! We found our FL dentist!
