I moved to Hopatcong 3 years ago and prior to the pandemic returned to my dentist near Buffalo as I was hesitant to try someone new after 37 years. After receiving a brochure, I decided to try Hopatcong Dental. I couldn't be happier with my choice! I would totally recommend Dr. Schmidt and his associates.

If, like me, you dread your semi-annual dental appointment you're going to be very pleasantly surprised by Dr. Brandon Schmidt and his team. Smart, friendly, and fast sum it up. And Oneida is, far-and-away, the best Dental Hygienist I've ever gotten a cleaning from!
