Patient Testimonials

I have been a patient of Dr. Vallese for more than 25 years. I see him at least 3 times a year.. He and his staff have always been professional and provided excellent care. I recently had an emergency dental situation. They were able to take care of me immediately and provide root canal on the spot. I highly recommend Dr. Vallese and his staff.

C.K.

I've been a patient of Dr. Vallese for 12 years. He's excellent and really cares about his patients. The staff is always so nice, and I have never waited to get in. Each time I have my teeth cleaned, I feel so good when I leave. The office is super clean and friendly. He's the best dentist; I would highly recommend to anyone.

R.S.

Dear Dr. Vallese,

Thank you for your kindness every time I sit on "that chair"! Your professionalism and competence definitely make my dentist visits more enjoyable. It's obvious that you love what you do! Again, my apologies Dr. Vallese for biting your fingers. Everyone in your office is always very nice and helpful. Thank you!

Dr. Vallese,
I want to express my sincere appreciation to you and your staff for helping me regain my youthful appearance and bringing a new smile to my face. Obviously you have a great group of ladies on staff that made me feel comfortable during the whole procedure. Please extend my appreciation to them. It goes without saying...that you are the best at what you do. Thank you again!

P.C.

Dr. Vallese is first rate in my book. I have been his patient for over 15 years and have never had an issue. He is very conservative when it comes to treatment and will only undertake a procedure if absolutely necessary. I recommend him without reservation.

Cosmetic Dentistry FAQs

What cosmetic treatments can improve my smile?

Many patients choose teeth whitening, crowns, dentures, and other types of dental work to enhance appearance and function. Our dentists provide comprehensive dental care and general dentistry solutions designed to support both aesthetics and long-term oral health.

Will my insurance help cover cosmetic dental treatment?

Coverage depends on your specific insurance policy, treatment goals, and whether procedures are considered medically necessary. We work with most traditional insurance plans and can discuss cost, coverage details, and financing options before your first appointment.

What can I expect during my first visit?

During your first appointment, our professional team will review your goals, examine your smile, and explain available options. We strive to create a stress free experience with modern equipment, minimal waiting, and personalized recommendations for new patients.

Can cosmetic treatment help if I have damaged or unhealthy teeth?

Yes. Before cosmetic procedures begin, concerns such as decay, infection, or other complex dental issues may need to be treated. Depending on your needs, services like root canals or restorative care may be recommended to eliminate pain and create a healthy foundation for treatment.

Do you work with specialists for advanced cases?

When necessary, our office collaborates with trusted providers, including an oral surgeon, orthodontist, and periodontist, to ensure patients receive complete care. Our practice specializes in combining cosmetic solutions with principles of dental medicine so every treatment plan is carefully explained and clearly displayed during your visit.
