I am 65 years old. For 62 of these years I have been Terrified to see a dentist until I made an appointment with Dr. Tropinski. I have never felt more comfortable and impressed. Congratulations before any procedure. Keeps up with modern equipment to make stress and fear mostly none. Thought she pulled one tooth but a second I never knew. No pain. I highly recommend her and will always be my dentist. Love her and staff.

I have been terrified of dentists and dental work since a traumatic event when I was a child. Dr. Tropinski makes sure that I am comfortable before starting any procedure and her technicians who provide cleaning also make sure that I am comfortable by consulting with her. I can't say enough good things about this practice. Dr. Tropinski is a very funny woman who knows you can't talk back with a mouthful of instruments so she tells stories that are very amusing and actually take your mind off of what's going on in your mouth! This practice is excellent in every way, from the friendliness of the front office people to the technicians and to the doctor herself. I can't recommend it highly enough!

Been coming here for years and have never had a bad experience. Everyone in the office is warm and friendly and treats you like an actual person and not just another patient. Most people hate going to the dentist, but I don't mind it because every visit and interaction is a pleasant one--whether you're having your teeth cleaned or work done. Franklin Park Dental also has this new technique where they're able to numb just a single tooth instead of the whole side of your mouth. I've never heard of it before, but I just recently had it done a couple days ago and by the time I was ready to leave the office, the numbness was completely gone and I wasn't leaving as a drooling mess with one side of my mouth numb for hours after. If you ever come here to have work done on your teeth, you should definitely try out the single tooth numbing technique they use. It takes just a few minutes to get numb, they do what they need to do in your mouth, and then you're back to normal before you ever step out of the office.

I haven't been to the dentist in 10+ years Dr.tropinski welcomed me without without judgement. She and her team made me feel comfortable from the moment I walked in. I had a molar pulled with no pain at all. They really make you feel like family. They call you and check up on you I've never experienced this type of care! I will be bringing my whole family here I honestly don't think I will find a more caring dentist then her and her staff thank you Dr.Tropinski !!

The staff at Franklin Park Dental are friendly, professional and always willing to answer questions. Dr Tropinski has been my dentist for many years. What I like most is her straight forward and honest approach. She knows her stuff. Best way I can put it. Jim Alagna
