How can dentistry benefit your whole health?
Aside from the well-documented correlations between good oral health and strong bodies, We have a lot to thank our healthy smiles for. Healthy mouths enable us to get a good night's sleep and eat a nutritious diet. In good health, we can speak clearly or even express ourselves completely without uttering a single peep. Smiling brightly is a universal sign of peace and friendship that connects us all. When our oral health suffers, we miss it. Unaddressed oral health problems don’t just hurt, they make us feel isolated and weigh heavily on us emotionally.
Physical Health
This is the first one everyone thinks of. Having a toothache is a notoriously painful experience and may be a precursor to a dangerous infection. Physical health also includes the rest of you. Do you get frequent headaches or jaw pain? Is your bite comfortable? Many of the services we recommend are intended to be proactive and maintain your physical health to avoid future pain, discomfort and expense.
Emotional Health
How do you feel about your smile? Is there anything thing about it that weighs on your mind? Do you ever feel self-conscious about your smile? Your emotional well being is also important and we’re here to help. Share your thoughts with us and find out what your options are.
Mental Health
For some people, the prospect of visiting the dentist causes anxiety that’s so fierce it even rivals a toothache! If you suffer from dental anxiety or you’re stressing out about an impending visit or oral health problem let us know! There may be things we can do to help. Let’s get you past this.

Today Dr. Patel helped me with a sensitive gum issue that needed treatment. He was very kind and gentle. I am someone who has EXTREME anxiety when it comes to going to the dentist. I had a bad past experience during a procedure and going to the dentist ever since had been a pretty stressful. I would highly recommend Napanee Smiles . I have only been there for a few visits now as a new patient and I'm always satisfied. They are truly progressive, knowledgeable and personable. It was, quite frankly, the best dental experience ever!

Just a heads up to everyone in Napanee! I have had nothing but amazing experiences at Napanee Smiles. Check them out- I’m not sure I’ve ever left a dentist appt. laughing so much. Their care and knowledge really put me at ease during my appointment. I have a mouth full of baby teeth that are still hanging on and my X-rays were shown to me with a lot of detail and explanation. The expertise shown by Dr. Gandhalikar was outstanding. They’re a new business in town and growing, so I’m sure you’ll get in pretty quick!

I just started going to this dentist recently and I'm in love. Every staff member is amazing, kind and knowledgeable. I've had lots work done so far, including a root canal and they've all been excellent experiences. Staff are patient and kind and I never feel patronized or talked down to like I had been with other dentists. For once in my life, I look forward to going to the dentist.
