Best dental office I have ever been to! I had a cleaning with hygienist Jenn and she was very friendly, relaxing, and incredibly thorough. I felt like this was the best cleaning I’ve ever had. Dr. Sampaio provided an exceptionally thorough evaluation and took the time to explain everything clearly. I’ve never had a dentist take the time to explain things in such detail before. The front desk staff were very friendly and welcoming as well. The atmosphere in the office was friendly and positive from the moment I walked in, until I left. Very impressed, I would give them 10 stars but 5 is the highest limit!

I LOVE Sampaio Dental! Dr. Sampaio is knowledgeable, skilled, caring, compassionate, great communicator… totally brilliant & beautiful… her smile too!! Andi is the BEST!(get her if you can) but sure ALL the girls are like that, it’s just that way at Sampaio Dental. Today I had a deep cleaning with Jennifer. She is SO professional, knowledgeable, skilled & compassionate. She made what could be a very painful & difficult procedure pain free & left looking forward to our 2nd visit coming next week! There are great professionals throughout Sampaio Dental, Jennifer may very well be the BEST! The office is clean, comfortable, smartly decorated & offers an amazingly cool view! KT the Office Manager ROCKS!! She is SO helpful, SO sweet & SO much fun to talk to… I/you will find yourself just wanting call her all the time, even though in 1st conversation she has appointment scheduled, questions answered, concerns addressed & reminder message sent to you immediately!! It’s my new favorite place to go for fantastic people in Cape Coral & unquestionably CAPE CORAL’s PREMIER Dental Practice!! TEAM TEETH!! NEVER going anywhere else period! Go & see for yourself! You will not be disappointed!!👏👏👏💐✌️💐💯💯💯

We moved from Michigan 4 years ago. I thought it would be difficult finding a dentist I could feel comfortable with. My husband & I both go to Dr. Sampaio. Their staff is extremely helpful and explain everything to you. Laura is my hygienist & she is extremely knowledgeable & thorough. She also makes me comfortable. I cannot say enough about Dr. Sampaio. You need to schedule an appointment & you will feel & then you will feel the same way I do

Carina is the patient coordinador and she is awesome! 🤩 She’s very welcoming, remembers your name and seems genuinely interested in how you’re doing. Also she’s an upbeat person which is helpful because honestly going to the dentist doesn’t always make you feel cheery 😂We appreciate Carina very much. She’s an asset to the Sampaio Dental!
