Serving Reddick
A cracked molar on a weekday morning, a child's first cleaning, a denture that no longer fits the way it used to — dental needs rarely arrive on a convenient schedule. For families in Reddick, having a dental home where most of that care happens under one roof makes a real difference, because it means fewer referrals, fewer separate appointments, and fewer drives across town. We've been caring for patients throughout Marion County for over 30 years, and Reddick residents are a steady and valued part of that story.
Our relationship with the Reddick community is built on being available when people actually need us. That includes emergency dental appointments, including same-day visits for urgent problems like a traumatic dental injury, a cracked tooth, or severe pain that can't wait. If you've ever wondered whether it's worth calling, call — we'd rather evaluate something early than treat a bigger problem later.
We're a general dentistry practice serving patients of all ages, so one family can see us together: children who need sealants, fluoride treatment, or space maintainers, teenagers considering clear aligners, and adults managing gum health or replacing missing teeth. Our team includes a dental hygienist on staff, and our dentists, Dr. Hussein Salifu and Dr. Marco Geris, handle a wide range of care in-house. We're members of the FDA and the Central Florida District Dental Association.
Most relationships begin with a dental exam and cleaning. We look at the teeth, the gums, the bite, and the soft tissues, including an oral cancer screening, and then we talk with you plainly about what we see. If everything looks healthy, we'll say so and set you up on a preventive schedule. If something needs attention, we'll explain what it is, what your options are, and what happens if you wait — no pressure, just information you can use.
From there, treatment is tailored to the situation. Everyday restorative work includes dental fillings, composite bonding, onlays, crowns, and bridges. For infected or badly damaged teeth, we provide root canal therapy for anterior teeth, premolars, and molars, as well as root canal retreatments. When a tooth truly can't be saved, we perform simple and surgical extractions, including wisdom teeth removal, and we can discuss tooth replacement right away rather than sending you elsewhere to start over.
The Range of Care Reddick Families Rely On
Gum health is often the quiet factor behind long-term dental stability. We provide gum disease treatment, scaling and root planing, periodontal maintenance, gum grafting, periodontal regeneration, crown lengthening, gingivectomy, and cosmetic gum contouring. We also place dental implants and provide ongoing implant maintenance, along with bone grafting and sinus lift surgery when the supporting structure needs to be rebuilt first.
For patients missing several or all of their teeth, options include complete and partial dentures, snap-in dentures, implant-supported dentures and bridges, All-on-4 and full arch implants, Teeth In A Day, and full mouth reconstruction. On the cosmetic side, we offer porcelain and composite veneers, in-office and take-home teeth whitening, and smile-design consultations. We also treat TMJ and TMD, jaw clicking or limited movement, jaw-related headaches, and chronic facial pain, and we make night guards and sports mouth guards. Nitrous oxide and oral sedation are available for patients who need help staying comfortable.

Insurance, Payment, and Planning Ahead
We accept all major PPO insurance plans and file claims as a general practitioner across our areas of care — including endodontics, oral surgery, orthodontics, periodontics, orofacial pain, and prosthodontics. For many Reddick patients, that means specialty-level treatment can be filed under general dentistry benefits rather than requiring separate coverage arrangements.
We also welcome self-pay and cash patients, and we offer flexible payment plans so larger treatment, like implants or full mouth rehabilitation, can be approached in manageable steps. Before anything begins, we'll go over the plan and the costs with you so there are no surprises mid-treatment.
Getting Started and Staying Healthy
Call our office to schedule a new patient exam, a cleaning, or an urgent visit. Let us know if you're in pain, if you're transferring orthodontic care, or if you have a denture that needs repair — those details help us schedule the right amount of time.
After active treatment, we focus on keeping results stable: regular cleanings, periodontal maintenance where needed, implant maintenance, night guards for grinding, and routine exams. We're glad to be the dental home Reddick families come back to year after year.
