According to the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research, tooth decay is the single most common chronic childhood disease. Over 50 percent of 5 to 9 year old children have at least one cavity or filling, with that proportion increasing to 78 percent among 17-year-olds. Additionally, more than 51 million school hours are lost each year to dental-related illness.
As an added level of protection against dental decay, it is recommended that children receive periodic fluoride treatments as part of a program of preventive dental care. Fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral that helps to prevent cavities by making the hard outer enamel of the teeth more resistant to the acids produced by the harmful sugar processing bacteria in dental plaque. It can also help to remineralize the teeth to reverse incipient decay.
During a periodic checkup visit, the dentist may recommend the application of a topical fluoride to help strengthen and protect both a child’s baby teeth and the permanent ones. Topical fluorides can be applied as a foam, gel or varnish. Whatever type is selected, the procedure is quick and painless. Once the teeth are cleaned the fluoride is simply painted on the surfaces of the teeth or placed in a small tray to sit over the teeth for a brief period of time. Some types of fluoride treatment require no eating or drinking for half an hour as the fluoride is absorbed into the surface of the teeth. The dentist and dental hygienist will provide specific and detailed instructions as needed.
Fluoride treatment may also be indicated in adults who are at a higher risk for developing tooth decay.
I hadn’t been to a dentist in 12 years. I’m not proud of it, but the fear was real. Dr. Heering was the first dentist who didn’t dismiss it. He offered sedation and took time to explain everything before we even got started. I cried in the chair — not from pain, but because I finally felt safe. If dental anxiety is holding you back, this is the place to go. Don’t wait like I did.
I came in for a second opinion about getting implants. Dr. Gohel didn’t try to sell me anything. He showed me the X-rays, explained my options in plain English, and told me what he'd do if he were in my shoes. That kind of honesty is rare. I decided to move forward with the implants and haven’t looked back. Chewing feels normal again — like I got part of my life back.
My wisdom teeth were impacted and infected. I was in so much pain I couldn’t eat or sleep. Dr. Condello got me in the next morning and walked me through everything. The sedation worked like a charm, and he even called to check on me later that night. It wasn’t fun, obviously, but they turned what could’ve been a nightmare into a manageable, respectful experience.
I used to be the ‘closed-mouth smile’ girl in every picture. My front teeth were uneven and a little discolored, and I hated them. Dr. Gohel recommended veneers and showed me a mockup of what they could look like. The process was surprisingly easy, and now? I’m obsessed. My smile looks like it belongs in a toothpaste commercial. I wish I’d done this years ago.
Our whole family goes here — me, my wife, and our two daughters. Dr. Heering is great at making kids feel comfortable without dumbing things down. My girls actually look forward to going. And for me, it’s the peace of mind knowing we’re all getting top-level care in one place. You don’t get that often.
I cracked a molar on a piece of popcorn Friday night — sharp pain, couldn’t chew. Called the office Saturday morning and they told me to come right in. Dr. Condello patched it up quickly and got me a plan for a crown. They saved my weekend, honestly.
I’m a tech nerd, so I was fascinated watching the scanner make a 3D map of my mouth in real time. No trays, no mess, and I could see the image on the screen. Dr. Gohel used it to fit my crown and it was perfect on the first try. Dentistry has come a long way!
I’ve done whitening kits at home and always ended up with those sharp zaps of pain in my teeth. Not here. Dr. Heering used something gentler, and the results were still amazing. Zero sensitivity. 10/10.
I came in for a regular cleaning, and Dr. Gohel offered a screening because I mentioned my dad had oral cancer. He found a small patch on the side of my tongue and referred me to a specialist just to be safe. Thankfully it was nothing, but I had no idea dentists even did that. It really changed how I see dental visits — it’s not just teeth.
I lost most of my teeth years ago due to poor dental habits and some health issues. I’d been hiding my mouth and relying on loose-fitting dentures. Dr. Condello suggested All-on-4, and I wasn’t sure I could afford it, but we worked out a plan. The surgery went smoothly, and now I feel like a new man. I eat better, smile more, and honestly feel more like myself again. It was worth every penny.
I’ve been coming here for over 15 years — even after moving 45 minutes away. That should tell you everything. The staff is warm, the dentists are brilliant, and they’ve kept my smile healthy through every stage of life.
We started coming here when our son needed his first cleaning. Now he’s in college, and we’re all still patients. They remember your name, they ask about your life — it doesn’t feel like an appointment, it feels like catching up with people who genuinely care.
I used to dread dental visits. But this team is kind, patient, and actually fun to talk to. Everyone — from the front desk to the hygienists to the doctors — treats you like a human, not a number. That makes all the difference.
My daughter never liked the dentist — until we switched here. Now she actually reminds me when it’s time to schedule her cleanings. That’s how good they are.
I appreciate how respectful they are of my time. I’ve never waited more than five minutes past my appointment, and they explain everything upfront. No hidden fees, no pressure, just quality care every time.
Dr. Gohel has been my dentist since I was in my twenties. I’m in my fifties now. Through moves, pregnancies, and one very stubborn root canal, I’ve never once considered going elsewhere.
I was tired of hearing horror stories from my husband’s dentist, so I finally convinced him to come here. Now we both go, and he tells everyone he wishes he’d switched years ago.
The office is spotless, the chairs are comfortable, and the tech they use is top-notch. You can tell they invest in quality, and it makes the whole experience feel more professional.
Not just my name — they remember my dog’s name, my last vacation, the fact that I was nervous about getting a crown a year ago. It’s personal here. That matters.
From the moment you walk in, they make you feel at ease. The front desk is efficient, the hygienists are gentle but thorough, and the dentists are down-to-earth. It’s the kind of place you actually look forward to visiting.
Good vibes, skilled doctors, zero stress. I’ve sent five coworkers here and all of them had the same reaction: ‘Why didn’t I find this place sooner?’
I came in years ago with a mess of dental problems and a lot of embarrassment. The team never judged, just helped me fix things one step at a time. I’m proud of my smile now — and they’re a big reason why.
I had bounced around from dentist to dentist before finding this office. That was ten years ago. Now I can’t imagine going anywhere else. They earned my trust and loyalty.
