I went to Dr. Modugno’s predecessor, Dr. Bertolini, for over 40 years. When he retired, he could not have left his practice in any better hands nor would he have chosen anyone to take over his practice that did not meet his high standards. Dr. Modugno replaced a veneer that had cracked and it was a perfect match. He has a caring and professional chair side manner and takes time to explain everything thoroughly in a way that is easily understandable. His dental hygienist staff takes time with patient cleanings and makes helpful suggestions for oral care. I would highly recommend his practice.

The Modugno office is very clean and modern. My Hygienist Beth is thorough and clearly explaines everything she is doing. She gives easy to follow directions on how to keep your teeth healthy without shaming you if you have not followed those guidelines in the past.Dr. Modugno takes his time to check you and answer any questions letting you know all the options to get your teeth their best. There was no pressuring me into getting any tests or procedures done. I appreciate that they are willing to work around my comfort levels and finances. The front office is kind and has been so good at getting me scheduled when needed.

I am a former patient of Dr. Bertolini and the transition to Dr.Modugno has been great. I was in today and had my teeth cleaned by Beth(hygienist). She is very professional and nice. She did an awesome job. I saw Dr. Modugno for my exam. He is also very professional and listens to your needs and is very gentle. Elaine at the front desk is very pleasant and professional. To top it all off, I have no cavities and don't have to be back for 6 months.

I am a former patient of Dr. Bertolini and have now transitioned to Dr. Modugno. I am very happy that the office environment remains the same - welcoming, comfortable and hospitable. I am very happy that all those who provide dental services are very technically proficient as well as friendly. Dr. Modugno is competent, caring, honest, empathetic, and respectful. He has provided dental treatment that I needed but did not pressure me to pursue unnecessary treatments. Thanks to everyone!!!

I feel that my teeth and retainer always get thoroughly cleaned at my appointments. The staff are all very friendly. They are very good about reminding us to schedule our 6 month cleanings, and they never get frustrated with us if we need to cancel or reschedule.
