From those critical first teeth to implant supported dentures and treatments in-between, our family-focused dental practice is here for you. With skilled doctors, such as Dr. Eric Seidel and Dr. Stephanie DeFilipo our practice offers you and your family comprehensive care that is second-to-none.
My 2 year old has been here twice and they are very caring and gentle with her, telling her what they're doing and why. They are knowledgable and put my toddler, as well as me, at ease. I'm sure this will lead to her being comfortable at the dentist instead of fearing it like I do.
Everyone was happy and eager to help! The produre I had done was quick and painless. They walked me through the whole process and then explained everything while doing it. I am 7 months pregnant and they were extremely cautious and accommodating to my needs.
Incredible experience! My son is 2 and terrified of the doctor- the staff here was incredible and worked with him until he was comfortable and happy! Extremely positive experience! After we left the office my son told me, that was fun! If that doesnt speak for itself I dont know what does!!! Thank you
They were absolutely amazing with my 2.5 year old for her first visit! Everyone was so warm and welcoming. Dr Stephanie and Cassie were so patient and really made my daughter enjoy her first visit. The fish were a great distraction and welcoming feature in the office!
