Do yourself a favor and get an appointment at this office! I have gone to three different offices here in Boynton Beach, and many other locations throughout my life, and this office is by far the best one I have visited. They make your crown in house - same day! No temporary, and they pass that savings on to you the patient. I know because I compared with other offices and they beat them by over $100 per crown. Dr. Rodriguez has built a stellar practice and hope it always remains an independent one so it never changes. Their customer service and attention to detail is unmatched. It's like walking into a Disney park they are so friendly. I wish I would have found them sooner and prevented so much unnecessary pain and frustration from other local dental offices.

Simply stated: A miracle worker!!!! After years of neglecting and allowing decay to overrun my mouth, I thought it would be impossible to get a healthy smile to be proud of without spending 30K. Then came along Ocean Dental Studio when I had a tooth break and I had an exposed nerve. They got me in immediately and their welcoming and pleasant demeanor overcame all my resistance to going to the dentist and encouraged me to address my other dental health needs. All was accomplished at such a reasonable cost and on a flexible timeframe that I am in complete awe and so extremely grateful. Dr. Rodriguez and his entire team made it a pleasurable and inviting experience that I am actually going to keep up with a regular schedule of maintenance from now on. What a novel concept!!!! They are a class act from beginning to end.

I rode my bicycle to this office, and told them I'm a cash paying client. I was a new patient at this office, and as I was scheduling my next appointment to fill a cavity, I was told I have to pay 50% of the service in advance, before even going to the appointment. I have NEVER heard of such a thing. How would this dentist have his practice if he did this to every client? Dr. Rodriguez said to me, "We do this with everyone." If this is so, then may new patients know that you will only be serviced for your future appointments if you give 50% down of the total cost on your procedure, prior to your appointment, because this is what this office does. Unless it was just me... Humble servant of The LORD GOD JESUS, Lisa

I've been dreading going to a dentist but Dr Rodriguez and Ocean Dental made the experience way less scary than I imagined. Everything is well explained prior, everyone is very friendly and made me feel very comfortable and I'm not even nervous about my next visit.

In need of a new dentist after mine retired, I searched online and researched a few options based on reviews, recommendations and location. Ocean Dental Studio had great reviews, so I gave them a try (after trying a couple others first), and I couldn't be HAPPIER! Dr. Rodriguez and his staff are 5 star for sure! I am a very nervous dental patient, and this practice makes you feel very comfortable. Like family. Every person I came in contact with was friendly, calming, helpful and knowledgeable. Dr. Rodriguez is kind and takes his time to explain everything and answer any questions/concerns without you feeling rushed. He also doesn't push any unnecessary work, and seems reasonably priced, in my opinion. I had a wonderful and thorough cleaning thanks to Marnie, my dental hygienist and shortly after had an old filling replaced by Dr. Rodriguez, which looks beautiful, and Sharon, his Dental Asst is the bomb! Final thanks to front desk girls for your smiles and friendly attitudes. :)

I've been to 5-6 different dental offices during my life, and the staff at Ocean Dental is the best I've been around. From the Dr. to the ladies who check you in, everyone is so friendly and happy to be there. I would highly recommend anyone looking for a new dentist or who has moved to the area in search of a new office, come check this place out. Dr. Michael made my visit pain and stress free.

Typically I am not in love with the idea of seeing the dentist, yet Dr. Mike and the staff at Ocean Dental Studio manage to make each visit a real pleasure. They are kind, patient, and offer all the time necessary for you to feel comfortable in their care. This is a lovely group!

By far my best experience at a dental office! Very grateful to have been recommended to Dr.Rodriguez and staff. The stains on my teeth that have been a burden for years are gone and after breaking my front tooth that Dr. Rodriquez fixed today I am finally able to smile without embarrassment. I had the most comfortable dental procedure I have ever had, very fortunate to come across this office. Highly recommended! Thank you all, Sarina Heine

It's a must visit, I went there for a cleaning, they took their time to make sure the job was excellent, 100% satistied There is a huge difference between people who do the job just because it's their job And People who do the job because it's their passion, we need more clinics like this in this country

The staff at Ocean Dental are all friendly and caring from the front office to the hygienists. I especially liked Dr Gallaher. She has a gentle touch and is especially kind. Sharon, the assistant is also quite wonderful. Looks like I found a new dentist!!

Today I had the most wonderful experience at Ocean Dental Studio. I was so nervous about going to a new dentist but my anxiety was immediately put to rest upon arriving. The receptionist was kind and courteous and very informative, as she explained the different dental plan programs which were very reasonable. I then had X-rays taken, another great experience. My dental hygienist, Michelle was simply the best ever., and I highly recommend her. After my comprehensive, and thorough cleaning, Dr. Gallagher was very knowledgeable, professional and kind, and she explained a few problems I had illustrating them with actual fotos and X-rays. My Dental fears are gone. Thank you Ocean Dental Studio !
