The Strong & Healthy Smiles Difference
Comfortable dental care for all ages and smiles with expert care in a comforting and relaxed setting is the mission of Strong & Healthy Smiles.
Dental Wellness
Are you waiting to find someone you trust to take care of you and your family? Wondering why you should choose Strong & Healthy Smiles by Dr. Sue Keller?
We offer:
- Comfortable dental solutions
- Advanced technology
- Spa-like comfortable office environment
- We warrantee our treatment
One thing’s for sure; waiting to find a new dentist until you have an emergency can be really uncomfortable.
At Strong & Healthy Smiles by Dr. Sue Keller, we make top quality dental care comfortable by offering:
Comfortable hours:
We have morning appointments as early as 8:00AM and evening appointments as late as 7:00PM. We make it easy for you to see us!
Comfortable location:
40 Main Street in Florence, MA (get turn-by-turn directions on our contact page) with plenty of free parking. That's right - free parking, something difficult to find in Northampton! Our facility is handicapped accessible with elevator access to our 2nd floor suite.
Comfortable professionals:
Friendly, knowledgeable dental team whose greatest strength is teaching you to prevent dental problems while providing expert solutions to your dental problems.
Comfortable with all people:
We welcome the LGBT community.
Comfortable treatment:
Lots of dental problems and no time to fix them one tooth at a time, the traditional way? Afraid of dental treatment? Bad past experiences? We can show you how sedation dentistry can correct years of dental problems in just one or two easy visits, with little or no memory of the treatment. We love to get people healthy FAST!
Comfortable prevention:
Would you rather rinse, or drill? What if a simple saliva test determined your risk for cavities INSTEAD of waiting for the next hole to drill & fill? What if we could treat high-risk patients with rinses, toothpastes, and gum INSTEAD of drills? What if we could teach you how to never get another cavity, or how to raise your kids and grandkids cavity-free? What if your gum problems could be treated comfortably in one visit and without surgery? We will show you how!
Comfortable insurance:
Provider for Blue Cross/Blue Shield Dental Blue and Delta Dental Premier; we submit all insurance claims for other companies using electronic claims submission for fastest turnaround; and we support you to maximize your insurance reimbursement!
Comfortable financing:
ONE YEAR interest-free financing means you get the treatment you need now, your dental problems get solved before they get worse, and you still have 12 months to make easy monthly payments. Need more time? Long-term financing is also available!
Comfortable care for all ages:
From preventive care for infants and their parents, to advanced long-term planning and treatment for adults with complex dental problems, Dr. Sue provides expert care in a relaxing setting. She takes the time to understand your goals for wellness, function, and beauty. She carefully reviews where you are now, and how you got there. Then she plans how to get you from where you are to where you want to be, comfortably, safely, and within a budget that works for you, with an emphasis on prevention. The decisions are always yours - Dr. Sue will provide you with information and guidance for you to make the best choices for dental health for you and your family.
Advanced Technology
We’re not just friendly and comfortable, we’re high-tech too! Strong & Healthy Smiles offers:
- Digital x-ray technology which means eighty percent less radiation and you’ll see instant images on our computer (no processing chemicals or time) that can be enlarged, studied, discussed and highlighted for details. Copies can be easily printed or emailed to any specialist or dental laboratories. You can even take home a copy if you like! We’ve been digital since 2001, making us the first practice in the Pioneer Valley to offer this amazing advance to our patients.
- Our intraoral camera allows you to take an aerial tour of your mouth with our mini-camera. You can view each of your teeth at 30x magnification, showing important details that help us correct issues long before they become problems. Oh yeah, you only have to look if you want to! Dr. Sue routinely takes pictures during treatment to better see the operative area and to make sure that the details are done well, even up close as sometimes bigger is really better!
- Digital Photography allows us to take instant, high quality images of your face and smile for treatment planning, to chart progress and for communication with any necessary specialists and laboratories.
- 3.8x magnification surgical glasses with fiber optic lighting--Dr. Sue only practices with surgical magnification so that she can better see the details of your teeth and her work. Good lighting means better quality results and more comfort for you.
- High speed electric hand pieces are much faster than air drills, so your teeth will be healthy faster, and you will hear much less of that whiny air drill sound.
- We offer a host of DVD-based patient education modules available on over one hundred of the most current dental treatment options available and other topics of interest. Strong & Healthy Smiles by Dr. Sue Keller is definitely not your father's dental office!
Comfortable Environment
Let us help you reach your goals for dental wellness in the most comfortable way possible for you! We don’t look like a dental office with our warm, soothing colors and bright, sunlit rooms, high ceilings, giant windows in brick walls, hardwood floors, beautiful view of maple trees and mountains, all in the center of Florence, MA minutes from Downtown Northampton.
We don’t smell like a dental office - really! We don’t sound like a dental office with lots of laughing and great conversations. The people here are really enjoying getting to know you. Our friendly and professional team truly wants you to be comfortable. You will be treated with kindness and respect at all times. You are our guest! Make yourself at home. Have a mug of organic tea from Acadia Herbals, relax in our leather recliners, or cozy up in the corner with a good book from our collection of positive literature.
Special comfort menu for treatment:
- Massage and heated chairs, Tempur-Pedic pillows, and warm blankets
- Watching movies on your own personal “Movie Glasses,” listen to CDs, or pick your favorite tunes on Pandora.com on the web and listening with wireless headphones
- Warm, scented towels to freshen up after your visit
- Mother Earth pillows - (for hands, feet, neck, body, or eyes) can be heated for your comfort
- A full range of pain relief and sedation services for those who are anxious about visits to the dentist.
We warrantee our treatments
At Strong & Healthy Smiles we give a free initial consultation, and offer a no-risk, money-back-guarantee on your initial comprehensive assessment if we don’t provide the most thorough dental exam you've ever had and you’re not absolutely sure that this the right dental office for you. We want you to find a happy dental home. If it’s not us—that’s ok. The most important thing is that you find a dentist who you love and are comfortable asking all your questions to.
