While the way your smile looks is important, its not all that matters. We keep your oral health at the forefront of every cosmetic treatment we provide. When your smile is healthy, it looks and feels great, too. So, we believe that excellent oral health is the first step to a beautiful looking smile.
Chipped teeth, broken teeth, stained teeth, or gaps are no match for our advanced cosmetic dentistry. We offer simple composite bonding, which is a quick and easy way to fix minor issues, to more in-depth cosmetic treatments like porcelain veneers and recontouring.
If your smile is feeling a little less exciting than it used to, or is beginning to fade quicker than youd like, we offer restorative dentistry services that can bring back the best of your natural smile. By promoting the longevity of your smile, our restorations ensure your gums and teeth are of optimal health.
We strive to save your natural teeth whenever its possible, but if your teeth are too damaged, or youve already lost some, we have options for replacement that will restore your smile. Our restorations are natural in appearance and all anyone will notice is how beautiful your smile is.

Dr. Slater is so nice and very gentle. The dentist, the office staff and the hygienists always, always treat you with respect. This is becoming unusual, especially at the dentist office. No shaming, just great preventative care and support. I had a grind guard made that has done wonders for the inside of my mouth and no more headaches!

Dr Slater is a good dentist and good man! I trust him with my dental care and our family's as well. This isn't a clinic where you are just a number rushed in and out! This is a dental home as stated in the Bio.

I have been coming to this office for many many years. The entire staff is amazing and make you feel so special from the dentist to the front desk staff. Got to the office this time and found out my old hygienist had retired and was greeted by my new hygienist Angie! She is awesome and i am extremely happy with the change. Keep up the great work! Choose them and you will not be disappointed!

Highland Park Dental is an EXCEPTIONAL dental practice. Dr. Mical Slater is the best dentist that I have EVER had in my entire life! I call him the miracle dentist to all my friends and anyone who asks me where I goI highly recommend this dental office. My husband and I have been patients there for several years. Dr. Slater's staff is the best! They are all very friendly, nice, knowledgeable, and professional. Crystal, Diane, and Pam Marie are best and my hygienist Lindsay stayed after hours last month to clean my husband's teeth! Thank you again, Lindsay! If you are in need of a GREAT dental practice, look no further than Highland Park Dental. I assure you that you will NOT be disappointed

Had the privilege of seeing Dr. Slater at a previous office. Recently found Dr. Slater again and have never been happier. Dr. Slater has a great "bedside manner" and is an extremely knowledgeable dentist. His staff is the greatest and on my last visit stated, "I love coming here." Highly recommend.

Giving this office 5 start NO DOUBT! I walked in crying with excruciating pain and left content, satisficed and relaxed. The staff is extremely attentive and the dental assistant Diana took the BEST care of me alongside Dr. Slater. Their rates are relatively economic compared to the other offices I called in the same area. I was booked within the week and was seen fairly quickly. I will be returning to continue services with them for sure! Thanks again!

Dr. Slater is wonderful, he cares for his patients and it shows. The staff is fantastic. I know no one likes going to the dentist, but Dr Slater and his staff make visits a lot easier. Im so glad I got a recommendation from a friend to see him a few years ago, when I was looking for a dentist.

My family and I have been coming here since I was old enough for hygienist visits. For many years, Dr. Mundy treated us very well and we all weren't sure how things would go after his retirement. Dr. Slater and his team have made this transition to new faces very pleasant and have kept the same genuine care and comfort that we've had for years. Thank you all for everything you do!
