Lawrence P Schmakel, DDS
My procedure was done right, and there was no pain! I really appreciate the calls to check up on me post procedure and the sincere concern Dr. Larry shows. I believe he truly cares about his patients and is determined to give them the best possible results no matter what procedure is being done. My husband and I have been patients of Dr. Larry Schmakel for 25 years.

We have had extensive bridge and crown work and have been completely satisfied with his work. He is very knowledgeable with all the newest procedures. My family and I would like to thank you for the wonderful dental care we have received from you and your staff for the last 22 years. You have always made us feel comfortable, relaxed and pain-free!

What is a mouthguard? A mouthguard is a flexible, appliance made out of plastic. Mouthguards are used to protect your teeth. If you're involved in athletic sports or recreational activities, wear a mouthguard to reduce trauma to your mouth and jaw and reduce the number and severity of concussions. Why should I wear a mouthguard?
Juvderm helps to restore a more youthful smile! It is the first FDA-approved filler to add volume to the nasolabial folds, corners of the mouth, (downturned areas), and instantly add volume to the cheek area. It gives you a subtle lift which helps restore contour. Dr. Schmakel offers these new treatments to help his patients achieve the smile they've always wanted!
Virtually all adults (99.7%) believe a smile is an important social asset. 96% of adults believe an attractive smile makes a person more appealing to members of the opposite sex. Three-quarters (74%) of adults feel an unattractive smile can hurt a person's chance for career success. If you're unhappy with the appearance of your teeth, consider veneers!

I had what was for me, an emergency. They got me in fairly quickly and took care of my issue. Dr. Schmakel and his entire staff are knowledgeable and professional. Throughout the procedure they made sure I was comfortable. I highly recommend this office!!

I absolutely HATE going to the dentist.
I ALWAYS have an over and beyond pleasant experience with EVERY SINGLE PERSON on the team at Dr. Schmakel’s office. This last visit was one I’ve dreaded for months. Alyssa was SOOO kind, patient, and understanding of my anxiety of everything dental related. She communicated as she went along, consistently checked to see how I was doing, gave me space I needed when I needed a minute…I HIGHLY recommend this team!

Sylvania Smile Design is staffed by an incredible group of individuals. I always have a positive experience. Dr. Schmakel is so accommodating and knowledgable, and the dental hygienist that works with me during my visits (Bree) is always amazing and super friendly. The desk staff are also friendly and cordial. Dr. Schmakel and Bree always make me feel comfortable and are great a gently encouraging me to continue to always do better in my own personal oral hygiene.
