Family Dental Health of Forest Acres

Most patients praise the warm, unhurried atmosphere and dental skill here, naming Dr. Pincelli and Dr. Hicklin specifically. One patient had a difficult crown experience where healthy teeth were adjusted twice before the crown itself, leading to ongoing bite and jaw pain that required a second opinion to resolve. The office serves veterans well and maintains a reputation for gentle care and professionalism. Review evidence for the specific implant categories is limited, though one extraction and oral surgery visit was noted positively.
