We believe that preventive dentistry is the cornerstone of our health-centered practice. Early recognition and treatment intervention will optimize the long-term oral health benefits for all of our patients. Quality dentistry, together with proper home care, will ensure the best dental health and reduce the amount of dentistry needed in your lifetime. Our practice commits and prides itself on providing you the highest quality of dental services by:
On October 1, 1991, Dr. Sonny Spera began what was to be Progressive Dental, PLLC. The first office was located at 1080 Conklin Road in Conklin, NY. This had been the office of Dr. Milton Lawney until his retirement. Dr. Spera and a half dozen dedicated assistants, hygienists and office personnel staffed the small office for two and a half years. In that time, Dr. Spera added more office hours, additional staff and upgraded much of the equipment.
On April 4, 1994, the Conklin Office at 703 Conklin Road was opened. This office was built to accommodate the larger staff and provide state-of-the-art dental design. In 1996, after an office naming contest, our patients input gave us Progressive Dental and our current practice was born!
In 1998, Dr. Loveland retired and joined our practice in Conklin and in September 1998 we merged with Dr. Bernie Collins at 333 Hooper Road. We built our new office at 565 Hooper Road in Endwell, NY, which we opened on February 1, 1999.
We continued to expand Progressive Dental. In April 2004, Dr. DeRensis retired and Progressive Dental of Norwich, PLLC was born. We continued to work out of the office at 89 N. Broad Street and in October 2004 we opened our new office at 101 S. Broad Street in Norwich, NY.
Dr. Peter Kim graduated from State University of New York at Geneseo in 2010 with a major in Biology. He received his doctorate in dental surgery from University of Michigan School of Dentistry in 2014.
Had nothing but great experiences. GREAT place to take kids. When my husbands tooth got infected and cracked due to his wisdom teeth, other dentists wanted to make him wait months. They took him in immediately and removed the tooth then and there.
I took my toddler (4yr) in and they were so friendly to her. The first lady cleaned her teeth, explained everything, and was kind. The dentist was quick and nice. He made her a balloon animal and they gave both kids gifts. Definitely recommend this dentists office for everyone.

I have terrible anxiety and they were so understanding and helpful. I was given multiple options and not pushed in any direction. They offered payment and financing option. They called the next day to check on how I was doing and feeling I will definitely be returning!

I had a dental emergency and not only were they able to get me in quickly but they took very good care of me. I highly recommend them. Update: I'm back to regular visits after COVID. Dr. Quinones is very thorough, informative & discusses available options/outcomes for treatment. One of my recent options was to have a root canal to save a front tooth. It was my 1st and I was very nervous, having heard numerous stories about bad experiences. But this was amazing! Dr. Quinones is skilled with her tools and made quick and painless work of my bad tooth. I am no longer fearful to go to the dentist..

I have had no dental insurance for many years. Progressive was thorough, kind, compassionate, and worked with my new insurance and me on every level. I am happy and impressed with the level of care and attention I received.

I live in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. There's a reason I drive three hours north to get my chompers cleaned up: Sonny Spera and his team are THE BEST in the field of dentistry. Sue was wonderful!

A return visit to Progressive in Kirkwood and another positive experience. Dr. Blanchard and the dental tech did a great job with a cleaning and adjusting my upper denture. I would highly recommend Progressive Dental and Dr. Brian Blanchard to anyone that is interested in having dental care. Great staff at both the Kirkwood and Endwell locations.
