We use Dr Ratcliff on HWY 98. I am impressed with him for two reasons. First, he spends more time with patients than most dentists during routine visits. Second, he doesn't try to sell you a bunch of junk to augment his salary. I am blessed with good teeth and the first time I was there the hygienist was speculating I might need to get a bite guard as I grind;Ratcliff nixed this when he came in.
I've been going to Dr. Ruder in Seagrove for years - highly recommend - easy to get an apointment, they see you at your appointment time, and certainly don't push anything besides flossing and brushing properly!
Dr. Fred Ruder and his entire staff at Seacrest Dental are phenomenal! I actually love going to the dentist. Edgar, the office manager is especially helpful!
Dr. Ruder by Eastern Lake is our dentist. He has access to a great dental lab for crowns, etc.
I'd recommend Dr. Gary Crosson, but he hasn't accepted new patients for quite a while, and has just announced his pending retirement. While it is medically necessary for him, I am SO sad, because he is a great dentist and a wonderful human being.
The dentist he has brought in to replace him, Dr. Tanya Orr, is very, very nice and very skilled. I got to know her quite well with a marathon crown prep Tuesday morning. She may be accepting new patients, as I am sure they will lose a few.
Whatever you do...when you are told you have a cracked filling that needs to be refilled and crowned, and you wince at the expense, just do it. Don't wait two years. Because now I get to reaquaint myself with the Dr Pat Francisco, Niceville/Regatta Bay, Emerald Coast Periodontics, again (she is GREAT, but that doesn't mean I enjoy having to see her!).

Ditto for Dr. Ratcliff. His staff is great and he is so kind. Being seeing him for 3-4 years now. His phone is 622-2226.
Our family goes to Dr. Wiebe. She has had Lvi training which most of the dentists in this area have not had. I was interested in getting veneers and found her office on the lvi website. Las Vegas institute is a special post grad Ce school in Las vegas that teaches amazing esthetics for veneers and crowns. I got my veneers by her and have been very pleased! I love the way my teeth look for the 1st time in years! I have a friend who got veneers at another dentists office locally who has had nothing but issues. My kids go to her and she and her staff are wonderful- never rushed and very sweet! Highly recommended!
Our family is on a new dental plan, and we need to associate with a dentist who is ?on our plan.? I know we have a lot of great dentists in our area, but does anyone have any experience they can share with these particular dentists? Thanks so much for your help.
