Services
Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers address chips, cracks, and discoloration by custom-crafting thin shells to fit over teeth. This cosmetic solution enhances symmetry and brightness, delivering natural-looking results. Ideal for patients seeking a durable, stain-resistant option to achieve a flawless smile.
Invisalign
Invisalign uses clear, removable aligners to straighten teeth discreetly. Treatment lasts 12-18 months, correcting crowding, gaps, and misalignment. As an Invisalign Elite Provider, we offer expert care for patients desiring a virtually invisible orthodontic solution without dietary restrictions.
Dental Implants
Dental implants replace missing teeth with titanium posts fused to the jawbone, preventing bone loss. This permanent solution supports crowns, bridges, or dentures. Patients benefit from restored function, aesthetics, and confidence through single-visit implant and restoration services.
Teeth Whitening
Professional teeth whitening removes stains using advanced Zoom technology for dramatic results in one session. Custom take-home trays ensure long-term maintenance. This service caters to patients seeking a brighter, more youthful smile with minimal sensitivity.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Cosmetic dentistry combines veneers, bonding, and whitening to address multiple aesthetic concerns. Tailored treatment plans enhance facial harmony and symmetry. Patients receive comprehensive consultations to achieve personalized, life-changing transformations aligned with their lifestyle goals.

I'VE NEVER WRITTEN A BAD REVIEW BEFORE. However, Dr. McGuire very unfortunately put an ill fitted crown on my tooth two separate times! Although he's very nice, he is clearly incompetent! I have now had to have that tooth pulled, and have had to have artificial bone put in that spot as well. Then, I'll need a fake tooth put in. This has been a long, agonizing, and extremely costly experience. I know that he didn't mean to harm me, but he did.

There are better dentists that are more affordable and don't tell you that you need so much unnecessary work done. They do have an endodontist specialist, TMJ specialist, oral surgeon, prosthodontist and general dentist. It's one stop shopping and easy to be referred to each dentist for unnecessary work. I had an inferior crown put on which eventually led to needing a root canal. All the while I was told there was nothing wrong with the tooth even though I had pain with it. If you want to be price gouged then this is your dental office. I decided to go elsewhere and found a caring dentist who had a treatment plan that was acceptable and actually cared for his patients.

Dr Meola, the owner, is a third-generation dentist who takes his practice extremely seriously, and shows genuine care to his patients. Whenever I had a concern, he found the time to address it, even during very busy days. He's been more than fair to me in his treatment plans and cost estimates, putting me at ease. I've been his patient for over three years now, and am not going anywhere else. I've been seen by a variety of other dental practitioners and technicians, and everybody was kind, thoughtful, gentle, eager to avoid causing unnecessary pain, and understanding.

It is not every day that I would review a dentist office. But this practice is exceptional. Of course, I have huge dental anxiety. I was a little intimidated by all of their great positive energy initially (let's face it, I dont usually go to the dentist to have fun) but this practice truly does everything in their power to make the experience pleasant. Each of the doctors has been excellent, gentle, clear communicators.
From Dr. Meola to Dr. Maguire to Dr. Moroi, each is individually outstanding. The support staff is proficient and professional. I have been coming here for approximately 4 years and have since brought my family over from where we all went before. Also of note is that all 3 doctors are extremely active in "giving back" both in the local and global communities. They are just high quality people who are also highly skilled.
