Your smile says a lot about you. It reveals your sense of humor, shows affection, radiates confidence and brightens your entire face. But if youre hiding your smile because its not as attractive or healthy as it should be, youre sending a negative message to everyone you meet.

A good oral healthcare office should make patients feel right at home, not like they have to keep their guard up to avoid overblown sales pitches and treatment recommendations they dont really need. Here in the Bethlehem, PA, our team is fully dedicated to providing dentistry thats honest to its core.

Our goal is to learn everything we can about your history, your oral health, and your goals for your future smile. Once we have all of this important information, we can formulate the ideal treatment plan that meets your needs and exceeds your expectations.

Wow! I cant say enough amazing things about the incredible staff at Lehigh Valley Smile Design. I have never been more at home and comfortable at a dental office! Sam Anthony made me feel like we were best friends catching up. Both women at the front desk as well as the Dr. were also kind and knowledgeable! Cant believe I am saying this, but I now love the dentist!

Great office! Everyone is very friendly and welcoming and is amazing at explaining whats going on with your teeth. Most other offices Ive been to they speak in dental terms, Which I do not understand and have to always ask what they are referring to. Nicole was very helpful and all the girls at the front desk! This is typically a far drive from my house but feel like its well worth it!

I have been a patient of Lehigh Valley Smile Design for over a decade. Dr Michael Petrillo and staff are truly exceptional! They have my highest recommendation. Simply put, I live in SC and travel back to PA, because of this wonderful staff! Sam is magic with the water pic, cleaning teeth

When Dr. Patrick A. Petrillo joined Lehigh Valley Smile Designs in 2012, he brought extensive experience from his own practice in creating smile makeovers and full mouth reconstruction. Joining Lehigh Valley Smile Designs allowed him the opportunity to focus on his true passion creating beautiful smiles that produced happy and healthy patients rather than managing a practice.

Dr. Patrick Petrillo decided he wanted to become a dentist because of years of dental work he had to endure growing up in Wilkes-Barre, PA. I had bad teeth that needed constant work, and I said to myself at some point, I think I can do better than the guy working on me.'

Eventually he took that desire to Temple Universitys Dental School, and its been fueling his approach to dentistry even since. I am still fascinated by my craft, he says with a smile. There have been so many changes in technology over the years I have been in practice, and those changes have allowed me to be even better as a dentist for my patients. Dr. Petrillo notes that new technology and dental materials provide him with the ability to provide his patients with an even more natural smile.

Dr. Petrillo was attracted to Lehigh Valley Dental Smiles because of the practices philosophy of emphasizing not just dental health, but overall health, as the key to a good smile. He truly enjoys working with the staff because of the high skill level and commitment to excellence in patient care.

A hallmark of Dr. Petrillos dental career has been his focus on continually enhancing his skills and knowledge as a dentist. He has regularly taken advanced dentistry courses at a national level, including the Peter Dawson Academy, The Frank Schuster Center for Professional Development, The Frank Spear Continuum, and Implant Courses through Nobel, Zimmer and 3i. He is also a member of the Suburban Study Club in Philadelphia.

Dr. Petrillo has three children, Jeffrey, Kimberly and Gregory. In his spare time, he likes to exercise (keeps me young), go to car shows, and spend time with my wife Linda. He also has a ShihTzu named Wicket who thinks he is a prince and keeps Dr. Petrillo and his wife constantly entertained.
