I am proud to have served patients in our community for over 30 years. Through dedication, years of advanced training, teaching and lecturing in some of the world’s finest dental education institutions, and maintaining a state-of-the-art facility, I can offer the high level of care that you and your family are looking for. Our teams in Dartmouth at Tucker Road Dental Associates and in Fall River at North Main Dental Associates will give you a warm welcome and our ongoing commitment to your dental care.
You can rest assured that you'll receive the personalized attention you deserve. Our teams in Dartmouth and Fall River will listen to your needs. You will receive a complete and thorough exam including periodontal and oral cancer screenings, at no additional charge.
Well-run efficient office with high degree of professionalism; no overbooking so the patient is seen at the scheduled time (I’ve never waited more than 5 minutes); reasonable, flexible payment plan; I like the predictability of knowing that I deal with the same dental assistant at each visit. Dr. Ponte provides meticulous dental care with the work ethic and integrity of a perfectionist. He is an excellent diagnostician and problem-solver who does no more and no less than what is required to accommodate the patient’s dental needs. I’ve been treated in his office for several years, most recently for crown work. Not only is each crown aesthetically pleasing, but Dr. Ponte was able to remedy the stressor points that I was putting on my teeth and jaw. I’ve stopped clenching and grinding my teeth.
