According to Dr. Marcello, Royal Crest sees 300-400 new patients per month. “We blow national averages out of the water and it amazes me that some patients even fly in for our services,” he said. He attributes the success of the practice to its unique take on treating phobic patients. “Our office and staff are geared toward helping calm the fears that phobic patients have of the dental office,” he said. “I also have to thank the dental community for their referrals. General dentists and specialists alike are learning to recognize dental phobias, which can many times be hard to diagnose.”

Dr. Marcello sees the opportunity to open additional satellite offices in the future if the demand for sedation dentistry continues to increase. “I tell patients all of the time, ‘going to the dentist is like dating. You might have to go through a few of them before you find the one you’re comfortable with,’” said Dr. Marcello. “And if that’s not me, then I hope they find someone else, because everyone needs to go to the dentist.”
