DENTISTS OF DISTINCTION: Ron O’Neal, D.M.D.

Many people say they hate going to the dentist. The Family Dentist — Dr. Ron O’Neal’s patients challenge this perception. His humor and caring bedside manner, coupled with exceptional patient care have allowed him to help many overcome their apprehensions.

Dr. O’Neal has always had a passion for art and the creative process. Recently, he has launched a line of artwork, stylized as Goatavious. “Creating with my hands as of late with wood, canvas, plaster and acrylic has become a creative outlet and place where I could think and reflect,” says O’Neal. In a world so filled with technology and screens, it provides me with an outlet to simply check out and work on my art and ultimately me.”

Community service has been a foundation of the dental practice since the beginning. Dr O’Neal sits on several boards and offers his time and talents to Village Partners International, the Judeo-Christian Health Center, and other charitable causes throughout the area.

Dr. O’Neal is humbled to be entrusted with each of his patients dental health. “A whiter, brighter smile leads to a happier, healthier looking, and more confident you,” emphasized O’Neal.

With offices on both sides of Tampa Bay, Northeast St. Pete and South Tampa, Dr. O’Neal has been creating smiles since 2005.
