Adult dentist recommendations? I'm a total sissy when it comes to dental work, so someone with a gentle hand would be preferred. TIA.

We go to Fishhawk Family dental. And I'm a big sissy too. But if you tell them why you have problems they are very supportive and will do their best to make you feel at ease.

Holly H. replied:
I second Doral Dental! Just wonderful and never had to wait for my cleanings! Wonderful staff too
Tina P. replied:
I work at Dental Laser Center in Brandon (Kingsway and 60) and I love it. I specifically work for Dr. Waterman who has been at that location for 30 years, but Dr. Gordillo is also there and she's amazing as well. She's done my dental work and is very gentle. We have 4 hygienists to choose from, and all have been there for years. We take most insurance and also have a laser that we use for small filings...which means no anesthetic (shots) needed. Check out our website. It needs to be updated a little, but has a lot of information about us. Www.dentallasercenter.net Good luck!

Dr Smith@Doral Dental!!!!!!!!
Clint S. replied:
Do not go to Lithia Smiles. I was using them til my last visit and the Dr was running behind and didn't wait for the meds to kick in to start filling my tooth and I kept tell her and she kept saying just give me five mins and I'll be finished. That filling feels rough so I think I'll be trying fish hawk family dental

Please help. Asking for recommendation for a good dentist and orthodontic for our teenage children. We use Tricare insurance and just bought a house in Fish Hawk. Thank...
Deborah G. replied:
I go to Fishhawk Family Dental and just started my 9 year old at Hess Orthodontics. Very pleased with both of them and we are retired military.

Stephen Harkey on 301 just passed Boyette. Awesome family dentist, takes Tricare and it a veteran smile emoticon
Jennifer S. replied:
Definitely shop around. I'm glad I did. Found the best orthodontist who doesn't up sale, is old school and took us mid treatment for a great price (unlike others who wanted to charge me more than I was originally supposed to pay!) he explains everyth ing to the kids (you also) and makes sure the kids understand why it's so important to floss and use the Christmas trees etc. he doesn't pay for advertising and is strictly word of mouth. Bruce Scarola on kingsway just north of 60. His number is 654-4661. Because I've needed a lot of dental work, he referred me to his dentist (who practices just like him). Dr. David Walker. His # is 689-5928. I really like him too.
Stacey J. replied:
We are on tricare and love Dr Hess's ortho practice and use Fishhawk Family Dental.

Dr Kerry Doral dental
Peter F. replied:
My family and I recently began seeing Dr. Matthew Fox and could not be more satisfied. He is on Lithia Pincrest in the plaza with Crunch. Not sure if he takes Tricare but he is a great dentist. I'm not a fan of going to the dentist but, I've felt no pain.
Thuy S. replied:
Fishhawk family dental and Hess VanLandschoot Orthodontics ! Both take Tricare and are fantastic.
Michael W. replied:
Hess Orthodontics outstanding and I used Tricare.
Cindy B. replied:
We used Fishhawk Family Dental and Hess Orthodontics. Both take Tricare and are super close by! Good luck in your new home!
Kate B. replied:
Fishhawk Family Dental takes Tricare, I'm a happy patient of theirs! No longer on my parent's insurance but they are amazing and thank goodness they take Publix too!!
I am in need of a dentist for myself and one for my kids, as well as an eye doctor. We have Tricare Prime. I have a gift card to Five Star Dental on Lithia Pinecrest,...

Jill J. replied:
Doral Dental is a one man operation. Dr Kerry Smith is wonderful.
David W. replied:
You should try Dr. Wareham at Cherry Blossom in Lithia. http://www.dentistfishhawk.com/. Just got a new crown last week and it is perfect.
Don H. replied:
Sorry about your experience. I have avoided "dental groups" since a friend had a bad experience. Dr Robert Reid is a DDS and has his own office called River Hills Dentistry in the River Hills plaza. The office staff couldn't have been better and he is truly an artisan of his craft!! Good luck with your search.
Paula S. replied:
We just went to Dr. Reid for the first time yesterday, and were very pleased.
Madeline F. replied:
If anyone knows where Dr Milne and her staff went please share.
Robin F. replied:
I don't have all the specifics but a friend of mine who was part of the old crew moved with one of the dentists to a new practice called Inspiration Dental. I think it's in Riverview.
Don H. replied:
Here is the link to Dr. Reid's page: https://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/River-Hills-Dentistry/633294893396261
Sandra K. replied:
2 nd Doral Dental and it's right here by Walgreens.
Christy K. replied:
Doral Dental is great. Dr Kerry Smith is wonderful. Been going there for years.
Chris S. replied:
You had a bad experience, because you didn't go to Dr Kerry Smith. Doral Dental is the place to go!
Kris F. replied:
Okay LIthia Smiles was great... I LOVED her but she did move and I have not been back since. So Doral Dental or the Cherry place is the way to now...everyone raves about them both.
Jacqueline L. replied:
The practice was sold. Dr. Milne couldn't buy the practice b/c she's Canadian. I know she is working in the area but I do not know the name of the new place she is at. The new dentist is nice but I was not happy with the service. I will not go back to Lithia Smiles.
I know we just had this thread, but I NEED A DENTIST OFFICE. Who do you LOVE?
My dentist Dr Brant Wade is closing his Brandon office. :(
Jill J. replied:
Love, love Doral Dental! Dr Smith and Suzanne (hygienist) are the best in the area!
Monica C. replied:
I love Doral Dental too!
Pamela P. replied:
I would love to recommend Fishhawk Dentistry but right now I can't. Not impressed.
Tiffany D. replied:
You have to go to Doral Dental! Dr. Kerry is amazing and was so professional with my husband.
Don H. replied:
Dr Robert Reid is great. Located in the River Hills plaza off Lithia pinecrest. The nice thing about Dr Reid is he is in his own practice . Very calm and inviting and he is very thorough.

FishHawk Family Dental. They won't nickel and dime you. They are very good with kids. Don't go to the place next to Publix.

Andrea C. replied:
Highly recommend Fishhawk Family Dental. All of my kids see Dr. Johnson and he's great with them. For orthodontic we see Dr. Abdoney and have been very happy there. We don't see the other Dr. Abdoney for dental because our insurance doesn't cover pediatric dentists, although I've heard many people are happy there, too. Good luck!

Felicia V. replied:
I see Dr. Harkey in Riverview. He is not holistic but I feel he gives you a fair honest approach/advice. I have been going to him for years and started taking my daughter there after the pediatric dentist said she needed $1 k worth of work. If nothing more a second opinion is good.
Andrea L. replied:
I have not been to him yet, but plan to, since doing all the research myself regarding root canals. It is scary. But Maria R Malec does go to Dr. Behm.

Dr. Behm in Clearwater. Fantastic. Add all my silver taken out by him. Super safe! Would use him hands down!
Cassandra G. replied:
My daughter hit her front tooth on the patio pavers last summer. We see Dr. Carr. She is a pediatric dentist in Riverview and we trust her opinion. She was able to get her right in and evaluate the tooth. If you are uneasy, a second opinion is a good idea.
I know this has been mentioned probably too many times, but who is your favorite dentist in fishhawk? I drive to Brandon, but fishhawk is obviously much closer! We don't...
Kristen G. replied:
Dr Wareham at Cherry Blossom!
Sandra K. replied:
Doral Dental is cheaper for us, without insurance, than the places our insurance (through Publix and United Technologies) was sending us to. Plus they're awesome.
Denise V. replied:
Dr. Kerry Smith, with Doral Dental. Right here in Fishhawk.
Kathi M. replied:
Aimee we have always seen Dr. Anderson at FH Family Dental. Been going to him since we moved here! We all love him!
Traci M. replied:
We have been going to dr Judson at FishHawk Family Dental for 10 years and highly recommend him!
DeeDee C. replied:
I use Dr. Wareham at Cherry Blossom. He's great & won't tell you need treatments that you don't. Had the same dentist for years and never had dental issues. I saw another dentist in Brandon 6 months after my checkup with my original dentist. The new dentist that told me I needed $20,000 worth of dental work. Switched to Dr. Wareham & left with nothing but my goodie bag, a cleaning, & a clean bill of health.
Jill J. replied:
Doral Dental - Dr Smith is the best. Honest and trustworthy.
Lori D. replied:
Second Dr. Anderson
