Oceanfront Dentistry - Drs. White & Heffelfinger

Dr. White was so awesome! I have huge anxiety going to the dentist and he was so kind, upbeat, lighthearted, and explained everything I would experience before he did it. I felt so comfortable and at ease throughout my entire appointment. Their staff and dental hygienists are amazing too! I can’t recommend Oceanfront Dentistry enough!

So going to the dentist is usually right up there trying to explain cryptocurrency to my grandparents on the "Things I'd Rather Not Do" list. But my dentist? Oceanfront dentistry - Dare I say it... almost enjoyable? The waiting room doesn't smell like fear and regret, which is a huge win. The staff is so friendly, they practically high-five you on the way in. ....Dr. White has a magical ability to wield those terrifying-looking tools of toothy doom with the grace of a concert violinist. They explain everything in plain English, like I'm an actual human being and not just a giant, walking set of molars. They're funny and very likable…the whole staff!! My teeth are sparkling, my gums are healthy, and I left with a smile. So, if you're looking for a dentist who's good at their job, makes you feel comfortable, and might even make you chuckle, Oceanfront Dentistry, is the tooth fairy you've been waiting for.

I cannot say enough good things about Oceanfront Dentistry. They have consistently met all my needs and exceeded my expectations at every visit. The team goes above and beyond to ensure that I am well taken care of, especially in emergency situations. I’m incredibly happy with my decision to switch from my previous dentist to this practice. If you're looking for a dental team that genuinely cares about their patients, I highly recommend Oceanfront Dentistry.

Dr. White is the best! I don't handle tooth and mouth pain well and going to the dentist gives me anxiety due to a bad previous experience with another dentist. Dr. White and his staff put me at ease instantly. His caring nature is genuine. He won't perform procedures you don't need. He catches cavities early so he doesn't even need to numb you! No needles! And he explains what he's doing and when he'll stop ("3, 2, 1, done"). Your comfort and ease are important to him. He also teaches younger professionals and geeks out on the latest tech that helps him do his job. When he was doing a crown for me last year, he was all excited about a new machine he was using that makes the crowns right there in his office. He took me back to watch it being made. So no more having to get a cap put on until the crown is made and going back into the office to put the permanent crown on; it was all done right there in his office in like an hour. Best dentist I've ever had, bar none.

I have been going to Oceanfront Dentistry for several years now, but had to get on and brag for a second. Dr. Heff not only helped me find “peace” in my mouth - he healed my relationship with the dentist as well. He never hesitated in believing me about pain or sensitivity and always takes time to listen to my concerns. I have been pain free for a year now and am a grateful. Today was the icing on the cake. My schedule made it so I had to bring my school aged boys to my cleaning (ages 5 and 4) and their patience was waning. He set them up in the lobby and his staff just stepped in. They had my kids in stitches laughing. I was able to still get a thorough cleaning. Literally… they go above and beyond in every way. Best dentist in the US - I have been to too many through the years.
