A Dentist Office Focused on Your Health and Wellbeing

At Taylor Dental, our dental team has over 100 years of experience in dentistry. That experience is apparent from the moment you contact our office and work with our Front Office staff. Clinically, our dental assistants are all fully Certified Dental Assistants, and our Registered Dental Hygienists are all licensed by the State of Florida.

All that experience has taught us to strive to improve continually. To that end, every team member participates in Continuing Education throughout the year. This extra education enables us to offer state-of-the-art dentistry while utilizing Cutting Edge Technology continually.

Our goal at Taylor Dental is to provide you with the best possible dental care available. This philosophy of care runs throughout our office, even in ways that aren’t readily apparent but are vitally important. For instance, to ensure patient safety, our sterilization protocols far exceed both State and Federal Requirements.

Remember that we are here for you and will assist you in any way we can. All you have to do is ask.

Friendly, quick, simple and professional. Highly recommend
Resume S.
This is an amazing practice! They go above and beyond and will work with you to make sure that you’ve received the best possible care. The support stuff is incredible. I had an issue with my coverage and they were extremely persistent with my insurance. They even drafted a letter for me to send to my provider, explaining why the crown should be covered. In the end, I had everything covered and did not have to pay $1,000+ out of pocket. It took a lot of their time but they were always kind and extremely helpful. Highlight recommend this place!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for this thoughtful review and strong recommendation! We’re glad to hear our team was able to support you and go the extra mile. Your kind words truly mean a lot to us! 😊

Very nice first time visit, there was a bit of a wait, but they were short a Dr. And they did provide a gift card for the inconvenience, I understood totally. Children will continue to go there. Great customer service and know how to treat patients 😀

This dental office was the sweetest people i've ever met. They treated everybody that walked in that door with love and respect. It didn't matter if they paid big money or they were the person they were helping because they were sent from a clinic.
Response from the owner:Thank you for sharing such kind words! It’s wonderful to hear when people notice and appreciate a team that treats everyone with love and respect. Creating a welcoming and compassionate environment is something we strive for every day.
Marilyn P.
My experience at Taylor Dental was awesome. My dental hygienist was quite friendly and very thorough. She gave me in-depth instructions on flossing and was very encouraging about how well I was doing in taking care of my teeth. Plus my hygienist was quick. Everything she did was timely. Also, the front desk staff is very efficient. The took my payment before I went back, so afterwards I made a quick exit and got to work fast.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear that you had an awesome experience at Taylor Dental. Chrissy will be so pleased to know her care and attention made you feel at ease—she’s truly fantastic! We're also glad the doctor was able to provide clarity and confidence with the second opinion. Your kind words mean a lot to our team, and we look forward to continuing to provide you with excellent care.

Holly is absolutely a top notch professional when it comes to taking care of my dental needs. She educates as she cleans my teeth. With her help I have decreased my deep pockets and gotten healthier gums. Love her
Response from the owner:Thank you Jeanne. We agree, Holly is the best! Thank you again for the 5 star review!

Best dental group in town! My dental hygienist is absolutely amazing! I no longer dread going to the dentist. Once you find this group, you won't go anywhere else!

Nora B.
I have extremely bad dental anxiety and this place has gone above and beyond to help me feel comfortable. I have had dental issues since I was a young child so, I have dealt with my share of dentist and specialist and I can say this office is one of the best. I don’t feel pressured to get dental work I can’t afford and the dentist has always been upfront about the different procedures and why I would need those procedures and the different things that can happen if I don’t get those procedures. The dentist and office staff try hard to address any concerns you have and it means a lot to someone like me who hates going to the dentist. I would highly recommend this place to anyone that is looking for a dentist who doesn’t make you feel like a number on a piece of paper.
Response from the owner:Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed and meaningful review. We truly appreciate your kind words about our team’s approach to comfort, transparency, and addressing concerns. Creating an environment where people feel heard, respected, and supported is very important to us. Your feedback means a great deal, and we’re grateful you chose to share it.
Noelle B.
I went to Taylor Dental for a new patient exam and cleaning. Dr. LeBlanc and Brenda, the hygienist, did a wonderful job. My cleaning was painless. Thank you Taylor Dental!
Response from the owner:Thank you for the kind feedback! We truly appreciate your positive words about our team and the care provided. Our goal is always to make visits as comfortable and positive as possible, and we’re grateful you took the time to share your experience.
