Dr. Tummarello has been my dentist since 1987, when I was just 10. My entire family continues to use him, and I refer everyone in search of a great dentist to him. When my husband and I have children, Dr. Tummarello will be their dentist as well of course! He makes what many people consider a tense appointment into something very non-stressful; he is always very concerned with patient comfort while working. Also, he never advocates dental work that is not truly needed. (I have heard this is a problem with some dentists.)
