Family & Neighborhood Dentist

Looking for a new dentist? We understand how challenging it can be to feel completely comfortable with dental care. We know it takes a lot of courage for many patients to make that call and schedule a dental appointment. That is why our mission is to help create an environment and a culture of compassion and humor to put our patients at ease when they take that important step to improving their dental care or looking to improve their smile. 
 

Going to the dentist shouldn’t have to be a dreaded ordeal. Everyone deserves a dentist who is honest and open about what treatments they need. Dr. Barakat believes in discussing her diagnoses with her patients so they understand why they may need certain treatments. No two patients are the same and neither should their treatment be. Whether you are a senior, an athlete, a teenager or an adult patient, Dr. Barakat will focus on your specific needs to better tailor your dental care.

 

Our care is comprehensive which means we don’t just treat one tooth, we examine your whole mouth, to make sure your healthy mouth contributes to your general health.
 
‣ We aim to establish long-term relationships with our patients. If we know you better, we can treat you better. 
‣ We listen and hear our patients first. 
‣ We want to understand our patients and what their past experiences have been to match the right treatment for them. 
‣ We don’t judge our patients if they haven’t seen a dentist in a long time and we will go the extra mile to make sure your visit is fun, full of laughter, and relaxing. 
 
We care about our planet! We aim to practice eco-friendly dentistry as much as possible and have implemented protocols that reduce waste and plastics. We dispose of our face masks responsibly to minimize harm to marine life and will be continually updating our practices to reduce our footprint on landfills and oceans.

 

We are proud that our COVID and infection control protocols have kept our patients, staff and community safe the last 3 years. 

 

Give us a call or send us a message if you have any questions, or if you would like to schedule an appointment.It takes teamwork to achieve good oral health and a fabulous smile to be proud of and we’ll guide you every step of the way and look forward to meeting you!

    "32 Dental Arts is a rare find: this is a team of good, honest people, who are great at what they do, and are doing it for all the right reasons. Dr. Barakat is a master of her craft. She's knowledgeable, caring, patient, and friendly. I used to have a lot of dental anxiety in the past, and somehow she cured that too! Elena is equally adept at taking the pain out of the scheduling and insurance concerns. Erin is a skilled and (thankfully!) gentle hygienist who is also great at teaching me how to take better care of my teeth. Amber's warmth and efficiency make everything else comfortable and easy. I know I'm not their only patient, but somehow they all make me feel like I'm their top priority. Highly recommended!"

    "I decided to switch to a dental office closer to home, as my previous one, while excellent, was too far. Dr. Barakat and his team were very accommodating and immediately addressed my TMJ pain. I really appreciate their quick response and professionalism."

    "Exceptional dentist!!! I was referred by my kids dentist when we moved to the area and I've been very impressed. I had an inlay done by a prior dentist that broke. She redesigned it to be much stronger and more secure. I have trouble getting numb and I get very anxious about dental work. This dentist is magic, she got me totally numb and worked very quickly. The temporary crown stayed on very well and I'm very happy with the permanent. I highly recommend this dentist! She's meticulous and very kind, thoroughly explaining each step."
