    Relax and Feel Comfortable

    The doctors and friendly staff make sure their patients are comfortable before, during and after treatment.

“We want people to look forward to coming in for their appointments,” says Dr. Zachary, “and that means taking care of their physical comfort and emotional well-being.”

    Patients don’t need to be nervous about getting the care they need at Grillo Dental. Making patients comfortable is at the heart of the friendly service provided by the doctors and staff. For a relaxing experience, the practice offers blankets, pillows, noise-canceling headphones and TVs in the treatment rooms and waiting room. Before local anesthesia injections, Dr. Grillo uses a topical anesthetic to numb the area first.

    Calming Sedation Options

    Oral sedation is offered to create an extra-calming treatment experience for apprehensive patients. For longer procedures or very fearful patients, a licensed anesthesiologist administers IV sedation for total relaxation.

    “I’m honored to support this superb practice, and I highly encourage all of my friends to give Grillo Dental a call. I’m certain they won’t be disappointed.”

    “I hadn’t seen a dentist through college and grad school, and my teeth were in sad shape. I saw the beautiful new Grillo Dental building and was impressed by how clean and modern the practice is—it feels like a spa. Dr. Grillo employs top-notch, state-of-the-art technology. His techniques are exquisite, and he has never caused me pain. He is compassionate, and he clearly communicates what needs to be done prior to any procedures.

    “I adore the office staff! The hygienists are skillful and kind and do a wonderful job. Everyone is extremely helpful with scheduling and navigating insurance coverage, and they have saved me money over the years. I’m honored to support this superb practice, and I highly encourage all of my friends to give Grillo Dental a call. I’m certain they won’t be disappointed.”

    “I’ve been going to Grillo Dental for over 35 years, and the work has always been successfully completed with no follow-up appointments required. The doctors are very knowledgeable about current procedures, and they use state-of-the-art dental equipment. The practice is very organized. There’s a very professional office staff that maintains the schedule so my appointments are always on time.”

    “My teeth are in the best condition of my life.”

    “At Grillo Dental, everyone from the front desk staff to the doctors are personable, honest and thorough. All treatments are explained in detail. I like that Dr. Grillo follows up with me after any procedures.

    “Dr. Grillo’s dental work is always superb. He uses the latest technology and gives thorough explanations. My teeth used to be just fair. Some crowns were not in good condition and did not look good. My teeth are now functionally and aesthetically pleasing. My teeth are in the best condition of my life.”

    “It’s easy to look forward to going to the dentist when you have a doctor like this.”

    “My family comes to Grillo Dental because everyone at the practice is very professional, friendly and organized. Dr. Grillo tells you exactly what to expect with your treatment and makes sure to answer any and all questions you might have.

    “I had a permanent baby tooth that would eventually fall out without anything to take its place. Dr. Grillo replaced it with an implant, and now I can smile with confidence. It’s easy to look forward to going to the dentist when you have a doctor like this.”

    “I love my implants. They feel like my natural teeth, and I don’t have to take them out like dentures.”

    “I can recommend Dr. Grillo to anyone, without any reservation. Patients are treated with the utmost respect, dignity, and warmth. I have been to several other dental practices and never experienced such caring treatment.

    “Before I came to Grillo Dental, I had partial dentures with clasps that were causing my other teeth to decay. They had to be extracted. When Dr. Grillo did my implants, he gave me his home number and told me to call him if I had a problem. I really did not need it since there was no problem! He does excellent work. I love my implants. They feel like my natural teeth, and I don’t have to take them out like dentures. I recently went to the West Indies and was able to eat sugar cane for the first time in many years.

    “Dr. Grillo knows his job and makes his patients very comfortable. Somehow there is not the regular dental scare.”

    “I love my smile, and my family is very happy with it also.”

    “I honestly love Grillo Dental. I can’t say enough how pleased I am with this office. Dr. Grillo was very clear about the procedure I was going to have. He explained the cost and kept his word, which is so rare these days. He and his staff were very comforting and made me feel less nervous. Everyone is pleasant and helpful. I love my smile, and my family is very happy with it also.

    “Before coming here, I had no front teeth, just a plate which I hated. Everything went as planned, and I’m very happy with the end result. Dr. Grillo is a great doctor. I haven’t had such a great smile in years. I’m looking forward to coming to this office for many more years.”

      When people love what they do it really makes a difference. Everyone at this office does. The hygienist definitely loves what she does and it shows. She did a fantastic job on my teeth. Both Dr Grillos are great

      This office is GREAT. Real people, family owned and the owners actually interact with you. Wish I had gone to them sooner. If your thinking of going here do it! Just brush your teeth before you go. We owe them that!

      Went to Grillo dental this morning for the first time and I have to say this is best dentist I’ve been to hands down. They made me feel comfortable and didn’t try to rush me out the door. I was treated as if I was the only patient in the building and I could not be happier. If you’re looking for a new dentist look no further.

      I went through 2 or 3 dentists trying to find one that could address my problems. Grillo quickly addressed my issue, relieved my immediate discomfort and put together a longer term plan to address my issues more comprehensively. Everyone in the office is very helpful and friendly and the care is top notch. I highly recommend Grillo dental.

      Everyone is so friendly and welcoming, to begin. The dental professionals are caring and demonstrate expertise in their approach from a cleaning to more involved treatments. They discuss what is involved , so you know what to expect— that is very important, as there is great communication. I always feel respected and confident that whatever treatment is proposed for me , will be for my benefit. It’s a very good practice.
