Ours really is a family dental practice. Not only do we serve families, but we are family! Dr. Heather Dubitsky-Timchak started her career at her fathers dental practice over a decade ago and then in 2011, she purchased his practice and assumed the new name, Dubitsky Family Dental. Today, Dr. Heather and Dr. Paul work together to make sure that our patients have access to a variety of dental care treatments, a caring team, modern technology and a comfortable atmosphere. Dubitsky Family Dental serves the Hillsborough area with preventive, restorative and cosmetic dental care, as well as a level of service that will leave you feeling amazed.

Bacteria in your mouth can cause gum disease (gingivitis) and bone disease (periodontal disease), as well as tooth decay (cavities). Our doctors and hygienists take great care to work together with you to make sure all surfaces are both clean and free of defects. Oral problems caused by bacteria often do NOT hurt until later stages, when the condition is more serious. For this reason, it is very important for you to have regular dental visits so we can detect any damaging changes and then intervene before pain begins.

If a bite is not in harmony with the jaw joints and muscles, problems such as worn teeth, broken teeth, loose teeth, tooth sensitivity, muscle soreness, headaches and facial pain can occur. Without identifying and eliminating the source of these negative stresses on your TMJ system, tooth problems and symptoms WILL become more serious over time. By completing a thorough oral and TMJ examination, we try to resolve these issues before they advance to a more serious condition.

Patients like our philosophy and technology, but they love our comforts. We have televisions in all of the operatories, iPods with headphones, plush leather chairs to make you feel more at home, as well as coffee, tea and water available in the waiting area is so desired. Because our office is family-oriented, we go above and beyond to make sure you get completely comfortable service at each and every visit with us.

The dentists at Dubitsky Family Dental in Hillsborough offer far more than basic dental checkups. Our philosophy is based on the belief that doing things well and right the first time will lead to long-lasting and comfortable results for excellent oral health. Dr. Heather strongly believes that taking the time to prevent problems is far more effective and less expensive than waiting until issues are complex before providing solutions. Our philosophy is very similar to that of an osteopathic physician; instead of seeking to treat disease, we strive to provide care to healthy individuals to keep them from experiencing disease in the first place. By taking this modern approach to wellness, Dr. Heather and her team at Dubitsky Family Dental lead you and your family in the direction of a lifetime of oral health.

Of course, you may not know what you need to look, feel and be your best but thats what we are here for! During your first visit to our office in Hillsborough, well walk you through every aspect of your oral health. Well look for signs of any decay, gum disease, tooth infection, occlusal disease as well as perform routine screenings for oral cancer and TMJ disorders. Using digital extraoral and intraoral photos and digital X-rays, we will show you the current state of your mouth, helping you understand what were seeing when we look at your smile. We will then provide our recommendations for how to bring about the best in your overall health, wellbeing and appearance.

Our dental care services include childrens dentistry, which means that you can bring all of your loved ones to Dubitsky Family Dental. Beyond providing care for the very young members of your family, we also offer complete restorative dentistry so that patients who may have experienced years of wear and tear on their smiles can find the care that they need to return to good health and complete function.

After completing her undergraduate education with a Bachelors of Science degree in Neuroscience at Fairfield University, Dr. Heather Dubitsky-Timchak continued her graduate dental education at the University of Medicine and Dentistry in New Jersey. During her time there, Dr. Heather received numerous awards and honors. Upon graduating in the top of her class in 2003, Dr. Heather was elected to membership in Omicron Kappa Upsilon Dental Honor Society, a society extremely limited to those who distinguished themselves with excellence in scholarship while demonstrating exemplary traits of character. After receiving her DMD, Dr. Heather joined her fathers dental practice in 2003. In 2011, she purchased the practice and assumed the new name, Dubitsky Family Dental.

Dr. Heather sets herself apart from most dentists in that she approaches oral health by practicing complete care dentistry, a concept she learned through her extensive and continued commitment to advanced education. Dr. Heather spends countless hours each year traveling around the country, furthering her understanding of all aspects of complete care dentistry, including endodontics (root canals), dental implants, cosmetic dentistry, oral medicine, TMJ disorders, and complex restorative cases (full-mouth rehabilitation). In fact, the state licensing board requires dentists to receive a minimum of 40 continuing education credits every two years, however Dr. Heather routinely completes double that amount every single year. Dr. Heather strongly emphasizes early detection and prevention and is trained to identify signs of dental problems before symptoms and damage become evident. Dr. Heather carefully examines each patient and develops a customized treatment plan designed to identify all current and potential issues. She also educates patients so they understand what is necessary to achieve long-term maintainable health and comfort, as well as a beautiful, natural smile.
