Services
Cosmetic Dentistry
Our cosmetic dentistry services address stained, chipped, or misaligned teeth through porcelain veneers, bonding, and professional whitening. Dr. Altomare creates customized smile makeovers combining multiple procedures for optimal aesthetics. Patients benefit from improved self-confidence and natural-looking results using durable, tooth-colored materials.
Dental Implants
Dental implants provide permanent solutions for missing teeth through titanium posts fused with jawbone tissue. We restore implants with crowns, bridges, or dentures to restore function and prevent bone loss. Patients enjoy stable, natural-feeling replacements that mimic biological teeth in appearance and performance.
Restorative Dentistry
Restorative treatments rebuild damaged smiles using crowns, bridges, and full mouth reconstruction. Dr. Altomare addresses decay, trauma, and wear through metal-free restorations that preserve natural tooth structure. Patients receive durable solutions that improve both function and aesthetics for long-term oral health.
General Dentistry
General dentistry services focus on preventive care, including exams, cleanings, and periodontal treatments. We emphasize early detection of issues like cavities and gum disease while providing education on home care routines. Patients maintain optimal oral health through regular professional maintenance and personalized guidance.
Preventive Dentistry
Preventive care programs include routine cleanings, oral cancer screenings, and patient education on hygiene practices. By addressing concerns early, we help patients avoid complex treatments while maintaining healthy smiles. Children and adults benefit from tailored strategies to prevent decay and gum disease.

Report
I made an appointment for a cleaning, but they did not schedule enough time for the appointment and asked me to leave early and come back on another day, so they could attend to the next patient. The staff was kind but the doctor was extraordinarily unprofessional. The doctor did not listen to my repeated requests to stop using a particular tool and continued inserting it into my mouth without my consent.
The dentist disregarded my complaint by saying "this is how we do dentistry" and continuing despite my protest. I was intending on receiving nitrous oxide, but I am grateful that they decided to randomly cancel my appointment mid-exam - I do not trust this professional with someone who is not fully conscious.

If I could give him and staff more then five stars I would. I have never been to a better dentist in my life. He's a pro at what he does. Really polite and gets stuff done quick and the right way! I'm telling you if your going to any other dentist you need to cancel and go here!

Excellent dental practice. I've been going to Dr. Altomare for nearly ten years and highly recommend him. I am very anxious when it comes to dental procedures from cleaning to fillings to crowns, but I keep going back to get it all done. Consider the alternative! He's good, and his staff is very kind and understanding. All good!

Doctor Altomare and his staff are so friendly and kind. Doc is very knowledgeable and was crystal clear with me on cause and effect in my decision making regarding choices in my treatment. They have been beyond flexible with me as I took my time to reschedule between work and visits. My visits have occurred in the middle of the day and I have not had to wait for longer than 15 minutes after signing in. I trust and highly recommend Dr Altomare
