It the first dental office I have been to that does not do a general cleaning before examining. I felt like the visit was a waste of my time. They did nothing more than took x-ray which was uncomfortable and poke my gums nothing to rinse my mouth after just not good.

I am a 74 year old man who had to have complete dental restoration done. My bite had to be corrected first before I could get my super star smille. I am so happy that my daughter recomanded me to Dr. Scerbo he has performed a miracle in my mouth.

I have had extensive long term work done and they took the time to explain every step of the way what was happening, dr scerbo has always been meticulous making sure its done right the first time. My end result has been outstanding with a million dollar smile. Thanks
Verified patient
You can get everything done in one location. Ask about their office plan and get discounts off almost everything. Nice crowns . He can do natural looking or very white if that's what you want (like me). Very nice staff.
I went for a consultation and found everyone to be super friendly, professional and explained to me what the procedure would entail.
Dr. Scerbo's office is always professional and right on time! Dr. Scerbo is a top notch Dentist with excellent care every-time and anytime. He genuinely cares for his patient.
Verified patient
I hate giving bad reviews and I have to say Dr. Scerbo is excellent, excellent bedside manner, great personality, very professional. Very happy w/his work. Anytime I've ever had issues it is never w/the Dr.... always with the staff unfortunately. I had scheduled a regular routine cleaning (covered 100% by insurance), nothing else was scheduled or mentioned. When I went in for the cleaning she did the cleaning and wanted to do x-rays which I agreed to. When I get the EOB from the insurance company they had also billed me for "periodontal maintenance" which I never requested, was never mentioned at anytime during or prior to the visit. I asked why I was being charged that and why it was done and they claim "it was because of a deep cleaning I had 3 years ago"!!!! WHAT????? Ridiculous... I couldn't get thru to her that they can't do maintenance without my consent or approval and they can't charge my insurance company for work I never agreed to. She wouldn't listen, so unfortunately I had to send a claim into my insurance company and also had to send a complaint form into the Florida Board of Dentistry to "excessive treatment". I have advised the the office in writing that, that particular bill will not be paid and would like to settle this amicably... .still no answer. Will update .....
Verified patient
Dr Scerbo has always been very cordial and easy to speak with. I had to have a lot of crowns done and with limited funds and weak dental coverage, he did the work well and with great accuracy and diagnosis.
Verified patient
Again, Pete did a fantastic job with a non routine situation. I have been going to him for almost 10 years and have been totally satisfied. Marilyn
Verified patient
Dr. Scerbo office staff is always professional in their respective positions, but in the event one employee may be out, the office is never without an answer for your questions, and always welcomes you with the utmost friendly greetings. Dr. Scerbo is a great Dentist who takes pride in not only his profession, but also the care of his staff and office to make sure all runs smoothly for his patients. I wouldn't change Dr. Scerbo for any other Dentist, ever!
Verified patient
It is so refreshing to find a young man with good ole bedside manners who can do his job with a smile, quickly, efficiently, and perfectly. And he makes you feel comfortable b/c he's being a GREAT dentist and NOT a salesman.
Verified patient
My visit with Dr. Scerbo was great. I had no been to the dentist for about 3 years due to lack of dental insurance. They were quick with getting my back to take x-rays, have the exam and explain what he found. They also explained all the plan and associated costs with the plan of action and they were extremely helpful with scheduling. . It really helps to make an informed decision. I highly recommend Dr. Scerbo and his entire office staff.
Verified patient
The Dental hygienist, while cleaning my teeth, could not prevent water from constantly spraying all over my face while she used the tool she was using. Other hygienists at other offices I have gone to have never had that problem.
Good office - I'm from up north and this was a very efficient, modern, and clean office. Not what I expected! Good job, Florida Smiles Dental!
Verified patient
Friendly, knowledgeable, and prompt! I did not have to wait long before being seen and the doctor and his staff were awesome!
