Whatever your smile needs to look and feel its absolute best, youll find it here at Total Dental Solutions. Combining his expertise as both a general dentist and periodontist, Dr. George Hoop is able to provide the North Naples community with a variety and breadth of services that cant be found anywhere else. Here, you can trust that your care will be 100% personalized to you so you can not only achieve a strong and healthy smile, but enjoy the process along the way.
Dr. Hoop has been practicing dentistry for over 30 years. After graduating from the Emory University School of Dentistry, he became a research fellow in periodontics at the same institution, eventually becoming certified in periodontics. Thanks to his extensive training, Dr. Hoop is able to care for and repair not only the teeth, but the gums and jawbone that support them as well, meaning his patients can get routine and specialty services in the same convenient location from the same trusted dentist.
If Dr. Hoop has learned one thing in all his years of practicing dentistry, its that in order to provide the best patient experience possible, he needs to personalize his approach for every smile. He understands that the small details, like the color of a filling, the shape of a crown, or how a veneer blends with the rest of the smile, can make all the difference for someones final result. Thats why he never provides cookie-cutter dentistry and always tailors his approach for each individual.
Have you ever had a real conversation with a dentist, as in one where they actually listen to what you have to say as opposed to just telling you about the treatments you need? With Dr. Hoop, communication is always a two-way street. Before he recommends any treatments, hell ask you about your oral health goals, needs, and budget so that he can provide care that perfectly suits your situation. And, if you ever need something to improve your time with us, just let him know, and hell make it happen.
At Total Dental Solutions, Dr. Hoop and our team will never, ever pressure you to get a treatment that you dont absolutely need. Our approach is to simply tell you everything you need to know about the current state of your oral health and then discuss your treatment options, allowing you to make well-informed decisions for yourself. We wont waste your time or stress you out with upselling!
Cost is always on peoples minds when they go to the dentist, so we strive to make taking care of your teeth easily affordable no matter what you need. We accept a long list of popular insurance policies and even offer our own in-house plan. With it, you can gain access to many of the same benefits as traditional insurance, but for a lower price and with less red tape. Flexible financing is available as well, as patients can sign up for CareCredit right through our website.
Our team at Total Dental Solutions is proud to serve as your dentist in North Naples. We go above and beyond to create a comfortable environment and a positive experience during your visit. We cant wait to show you just how rewarding caring for your smile can be!
