Oral Report: Top Dentists 2019

Central Florida’s premier dental health professionals.

A trip to the dentist doesn’t exactly top anyone’s list of favorite things, but maybe it should. After all, these professionals maintain the first thing people notice about us: our smiles. It’s time to show some appreciation for their field, from the general dentists who keep our teeth clean and cavity-free and the orthodontists who keep them straight, to the pediatric dentists who help our children build good oral habits. The following providers have been nominated by our readers as the ones they trust most for a healthy mouth, and the result is a list of 90 Top Dentists who deserve this time to shine.
