Terrace Oaks Dental describes itself as a small private practice that gives patients undivided attention at every visit, and notes that many of its patients have become friends. The practice uses a 3Shape Trios scanner to digitally scan teeth for the lab, so cases such as porcelain veneers can be designed digitally without impressions. One documented case involved porcelain veneers on the front six teeth to address heavy staining, brown spots, and old fillings that had begun trapping stains and forming cavities around them; the work was completed in two short visits with minimal anesthesia and minimal drilling. Another case involved a young patient who, after her braces came off, had white spots, cavities where the braces had been placed, and a gap from an abnormally small lateral incisor; porcelain veneers were placed in two visits, also scanned digitally with no impressions taken.

The office sits on North 53rd Street, about a tenth of a mile from the Temple Terrace Police Department and Temple Terrace City Hall, and roughly two tenths of a mile from East Fowler Avenue and North 56th Street.

Patients consistently describe Dr. Gibbs and his staff as friendly, professional, and knowledgeable, and the practice as honest and upfront about treatment planning.
