I came in feeling anxious and nervous because I had a really bad dental experience in the past, but this clinic completely changed my perspective. From the moment I walked in, the entire staff was so kind, patient, and professional. They made me feel comfortable, explained everything clearly, and truly cared about my comfort and well-being. The tooth extraction went smoother than I expected, and I felt supported the whole time. I’m honestly so grateful I found this place. Everyone here is amazing — they’re not just good at what they do, they’re genuinely good people. Highly recommend!

Wonderful, professional and prompt dental care from Dr. Robert Carimi, his assistant and staff at Tidelands Dental. Appointment easily scheduled. An excellent experience and fee was very reasonable. Thank you so much for your help, Dr. Carimi and staff.

Honest dentist who cares what the patient needs. Another dentist had told my daughter that she needed 4 cavities filled. This dentist explained that the 4 teeth in question were not full cavities but just slight ridges that could be monitored and maybe never progress. I appreciate this dental practice for not pushing for unnecessary procedures.

i walked into this place thinking maybe they took my insurance, they did not. a very nice man at the desk litteraly went out of his way to help me. a few minutes later they took me back an pulled two broken teeth stitched me up and was sent on my pain free way. the work in my mouth is far from over but, they treated me with Respect an Understanding, like they care. they sold me and i'll be back to hopefully get my whole top row fixed. Respect goes a long way in my book...Thankyou.

Tidelands Dental was able to get me in for same day appointment. Had to have a tooth extracted. Dr. Cloninger, and his Dental Assistant made me feel comfortable and relaxed for the procedure. They both took the time to discuss my options as well as a game plan. The office staff made me feel welcomed. Very friendly and helpful. If you are in need of a dentist I highly recommend you give them a call.

Tidelands was able to see me the day after a traumatic fall that moved a couple of my front teeth. The entire staff was compassionate and professional and they were able to stabilize my teeth so that I could continue to enjoy my vacation. Excellent service, highly recommend!
