Having come to Venice from New York for the winters for fourteen years, but keeping up-to-date with my New York dentists, I never thought I would need any extensive work while in Florida. However, when a 35 year old bridge shattered in my mouth while talking to my sister last January, I was forced to seek dental care. A recommendation from a friend, a retired allergist, led me to Drs. Arthur Acker and Nicole Lehninger. I have been very satisfied by my care and recommend the office highly.
“Definitely up-to-date and professional.”

OK, no one really "likes" going to the dentist........but honestly it is a pleasant experience coming to this office. Whether it is Ruby or Deb at the front desk or any of the three dentists (I have dealt with all three) or Paula who cleans my teeth, I can't speak highly enough about this office. I actually drive more than an hour to come here!

Having had excellent dental care during many years of living abroad, it wasn't easy to find someone who had the same level of expertise and interest as I had become accustomed to. In Dr. Acker I found such a person. As he is a true professional all of his staff, from the front desk to his hygienists are also top notch.
“worth a long drive to get here”

I was somewhat anxious beginning my procedure for "first time" implants. Dr. Acker and staff made me feel very comfortable at each and every visit. Upon entering the office, Ruby always gives you the most warmest and friendliest greeting. You feel special when you arrive!!! I would recommend Dr. Acker to anyone who is in need of any dental procedure. A truly professional, he is caring and ensures you understand every detail of your procedure.

I am new to this area and the first dentist I saw refused to even clean my teeth. I was told I needed extreme periodontal work or would lose my teeth. Needless to say, I left that office. Dr. Acker examined my teeth and reaffirmed that what I had been told was far from the truth. His hygienist cleaned my teeth with no problems, and he has been following my progress and I've only had caring attention and advice since then. I can't recommend this office highly enough.

I arrived for my implant today! Thank you Dr. Acker. The procedure went perfect. Everything is computerized and extremely accurate. The whole procedure was painless and the outcome exactly as planned. I love my smile and no longer have to worry about having a gap in my teeth. Dr. Acker and Dr. Lehninger are the best dentists. Your office and staff are wonderful! I look forward to see you in a couple of months for my followup.
