For patients with healthy, but misaligned or gapped teeth, a smile makeover can transform any smile into a more aesthetically pleasing one.

“Dr. Cartwright and her staff have made going to the dentist something I don’t mind anymore! Its been five years now and I have not lived in Ocala for 3 years and commute from Orlando when I need a cleaning or dental care. Bravo to a GREAT dentist that knows how to give a PAINLESS shot!!” Amy L. “I had a cracked tooth to the roots and they squeezed me in early that morning. Tooth is out, pain is gone. How can a tooth be pulled and be enjoyable? They managed to do it!! They will always do my dental care!!!” Kevin S. “Not many people enjoy dentist visits but thanks to Dr. Cartwright and staff, it is truly a wonderful experience every single time! Now my little monkey is taking after me and enjoys getting her chompers cleaned!!!” Kimberly P. “I have been to quite a few dentist offices in my 33 years. This is by far the best dentist I have ever been to. Dr. Cartwright is very caring, gentle, and considerate. Her office staff is also very friendly and helpful. I will never see another dentist as long as she is practicing.” Toni W. “These ladies are truly the best staff ever in a dentist setting. They make my whole family feel right at home, and always make sure to make us feel comfortable. I'm so glad that I've found a great dentist and staff for my family.” Shelly J. “For the first time in my life, I not only enjoyed my experience at a dental office but I look forward to continuing my dental care here. The entire staff from what I have experienced has been so generous and they truly make you feel as though you’re walking through the doors of your own home.” Kimberly S.
