Services
Invisalign Clear Braces
Invisalign uses custom-made aligners to gradually straighten teeth without metal brackets or wires. This discreet solution is ideal for adults and teens seeking aesthetic orthodontic treatment. Our practice offers personalized treatment plans using 3D imaging to map precise tooth movements.
Periodontal Treatment
We provide LANAP laser therapy, an FDA-approved alternative to traditional gum surgery. This minimally invasive treatment regenerates damaged gum tissue and bone while eliminating infection. It addresses symptoms like bleeding gums, receding gums, and loose teeth caused by periodontal disease.
Digital 3D X-rays
Our cone beam CT scanner produces high-resolution 3D images to detect hidden dental issues. This technology enables accurate diagnosis of infections, impacted teeth, and bone structure abnormalities while minimizing radiation exposure compared to traditional X-rays.
Painless Injections
Dr. Trettenero employs specialized techniques to ensure virtually painless injections. Using ultra-thin needles, neutral pH anesthetics, and slow delivery methods, we minimize discomfort during procedures. This approach addresses common fears associated with dental anesthesia.
Teeth Cleaning
Professional cleanings remove plaque and tartar buildup to prevent cavities and gum disease. Our hygienists use scaling and polishing techniques tailored to individual needs, recommending visits every 6-9 months for optimal oral health maintenance.

We found Dr Trettenero's office shortly after moving to this area 4 years ago - we initially went to another practice and had several terrible experiences so were somewhat skeptical going in but have to say this is the best dental practice we have been to. The entire staff is so professional and knowledgeable. They care about you and your overall and dental health, are very respectful of your time, straightforward and not pushing unnecessary procedures. We can't recommend them enough!

If you're looking for someone who will look after your teeth, is truly conservative, and very talented with all procedures then Dr. Trettenero is for you! You can tell keeping his patients comfortable is very high on his list. I've always been super scared to get any shots but he has the painless injection method down pat to where you honestly don't feel a thing. Top notch service from all the staff, efficient, and friendly environment all around! I couldn't thank you enough Dr. Trett for always doing such an awesome job, being so gentle and caring towards me!

I went for my first visit with Dr. Trettenero in Jan 2020. I was impressed then and encouraged my husband to go the next time. We had back to back appointments today. I had a major deep clean and my husband had his initial appointment with a thorough cleaning as well. If I could give this guy 10 stars, I would! He offers the latest of technology and explains everything. He is very concerned with individuals' dental health. The others we interacted with in the office were very nice, helpful and professional. Very highly recommend!

I had my first appointment with Dr Trettenero today. I have had the same dentist for 40 years up in PA. Since he retired, I set out to find a dentist here in FL. I chose Dr Trettenero mainly because of the excellent reviews and he prescribes IOGEL which helps maintain healthy gums. Well. I was very pleased. All the staff were very nice and pleasant and you couldn't ask for a nicer dentist. He was encouraging and gentle and appears to have the latest technology.
I am definitely going back to him. It will be well worth the 2 hr drive to Ft Myers. I was nervous about this first visit but I won't have any reservations about returning for my next appointment.

Dr Trettenero is excellent. His examination is the most thorough exam I've had. He and his assistant interact to ensure nothing is missed. I was quite impressed. He developed a dental plan that included the two crowns and three fillings, done in two appointments. I am a very anxious 70 year old patient and a gagger, but felt at total ease with Dr Trett. This was pain free dentistry including the pain free injections. I experienced no gagging. He has now become my permanent dentist. Thumbs up!
