Since 1987
General Dentistry Is What We Were Built On
We're a full-service dental practice, and cosmetic work is something we love. But general dentistry is what we were built on, and it's what keeps us busy every single day.
Cleanings, exams, fillings, root canals, extractions, the everyday care that keeps your teeth healthy and your family out of the dentist's chair for anything serious. We approach it the same way we approach everything: no shortcuts, no unnecessary treatment, no talking you into things you don't need.
Most of our long-term patients, some who've been coming here for 20 and 30 years, started with a cleaning and a check-up. They stayed because we treated them well and told them the truth. That's the whole strategy.
What We Offer
Our General Dentistry Services
Dental Exams & Cleanings
The foundation. We recommend exams and cleanings every six months for most patients, catching small issues before they become expensive ones. Kimberly has been our hygienist since 1992. Patients who've dreaded cleanings for years tell us this is different. We'll take that.
Dental Fillings
We've placed more fillings than we can count. The most important thing we've learned: catch them early and the procedure is simple. Wait, and that filling becomes a crown. We use tooth-colored composite resin only — no silver amalgam, no exceptions.
Tooth Extractions
Extraction is our last resort, not our first suggestion. When a tooth truly can't be saved, we remove it carefully and walk you through your replacement options — implants, bridges, or partial dentures — so you leave with a plan, not just a gap.
Root Canal Treatment
Honestly, root canals have an unfair reputation. The pain patients feel is from the infection, not the procedure. We've been doing root canals since 1987. When we remove that infected tissue, the relief is usually immediate. We do them here, in-house, no referral needed.
Gum Disease Treatment
Gum disease is more common than most people realize, and more serious than many take it for. We screen for it at every cleaning and treat it early. Most patients are surprised by how manageable it is when we catch it before it threatens teeth.
Night Guards
If you grind at night, you're doing real damage — and most people have no idea they're doing it. A custom night guard protects your enamel and reduces the jaw tension that causes morning headaches. Custom-fitted is significantly more effective than what you'd find at a pharmacy.
What Sets Our General Dentistry Apart
Conservative by design.
We don't recommend treatment you don't need. Our doctors take a straightforward approach: fix what's broken, maintain what's healthy, and be honest with you about both. Multiple patients have specifically mentioned this in their reviews, and it's not an accident.
Staff who actually know you.
Kimberly has been our hygienist since 1992. Victoria has been assisting since 1991. When you've been coming here for two years, you're not starting over with someone new at every appointment. That continuity matters, clinically and personally.
No dental anxiety required.
We hear this constantly: patients who've avoided the dentist for years because of fear or bad past experiences. We go slower. We explain more. We check in. Several patients have specifically said that cleanings here feel nothing like what they expected. We'll take that.
In Their Words
What Orlando Families Say About Our General Dentistry
Dr. Palmer is a kind, thorough, no-nonsense dentist who isn't trying to add on extra dental work to make a buck. He listened to my concerns and fears, very positive visit.

Kimberly made the cleaning fun, yes I said it, fun. No anxiety, no pain. Great experience.

I've been a patient at this practice for over 30 years. They are excellent with a conservative approach. I travel a good distance because I trust them.

When You're Ready to Go Beyond the Basics
A lot of our cosmetic patients started as general dentistry patients. Once your teeth are healthy and you trust the team, it's natural to start thinking about how your smile actually looks, not just whether it's healthy.
When that happens, we're ready for that conversation too. Porcelain veneers, smile makeovers, teeth whitening, Invisalign , it's all here, all done by the same team that already knows your mouth.
