The LDH and the LSBD have allowed healthcare practices to provide care for time sensitive procedures. We have been, and are still in the process of acquiring a large amount of new personal protective equipment (PPE). New protocols are being implemented for everyone's safety, one of which still requires a one-at-a-time policy in our reception area for social distancing purposes.

This can be anything done to correct imperfections in the appearance of the mouth. Anyone who is unhappy with their smile can have it fixed. The upper teeth show, usually, only when smiling, while the lower teeth remain hidden. This is reversed when talking, with the upper teeth remaining hidden while the lower teeth show.
At Governale Family Dentistry we employ some of the latest technologies including Cone Beam Computerized Tomograghy (CBCT). It's a 3D xray to visualize diagnose, and plan in more detail. Crowns are full coverage restorations that are used to cover a tooth that is likely to break, or is too broken down to be restored with a filling.
The brand of the toothbrush is not as critical as the type of bristle and the size of the head. A soft toothbrush with a small head is recommended because medium and hard brushes tend to cause irritation and contribute to recession of the gums, and a small head allows you to get around each tooth more completely and is less likely to injure your gums.
Our office is open Monday through Thursday, with hours that can accommodate most any schedule. We know that your time is important, and we work to ensure that your visit happens as professionally and quickly as possible. Dental emergencies are never convenient or timely. At Governale Family Dentistry we are committed to our patients' dental health no matter what time of the day or night it is.

They did a good job on the work they did my problem with this place is they dont care about the people at all, all they care about is money.

So my mom says well I didn’t ask you that and she’s(my niece) not on Medicaid or Medicare. My mom pulls out my niece insurance card to show her and
