John T Bailey, DMD – Cosmetic and Implant Dentistry
Our team’s goal is to promote excellent health in our patients. We support their overall health through excellent oral health. Our team was selected to provide you with the best possible experience during your dental visit. A common complaint of our healthcare system today is that care is sometimes rushed, with little time for questions or discussions and an incomplete understanding of options or costs. In our practice, you should expect three things: Discussion of your issues or concerns, your questions answered, and a written statement of expected costs prior to treatment. We encourage discussion – you can talk with any team member, and Dr Bailey is always around if needed. Emails and phone calls are answered promptly, and patients with a dental emergency are typically offered a same day appointment.
"Born and educated in Kentucky, I followed my father’s footsteps into dentistry. I moved to Florida in 1984 and opened my dental practice here in West Melbourne. I enjoy outdoor activities, reading, cooking with my wonderful wife Tara, and spoiling our grandchildren. I pursue lifelong learning and find constant new progression of dental science both interesting and enjoyable. Many things have changed over my career, but the most important ideals of professional service remain the same: Listen to your patients. Answer their questions and discuss their options. Provide quality service and treat people with courtesy.
A common complaint of our healthcare system today is of rushed care, with little or no pre-treatment discussion of options of costs. We encourage questions. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask me or my team. We are always happy to help you. We will return your phone call or email promptly. Patients with a dental emergency will in most cases be offered a same day appointment." - John Bailey
My professional philosophy creates a trusting relationship between our office and patients through careful diagnosis, personalized need based treatments, and honest re-evaluation of past and present work. I love working on unique cases that are challenging. I appreciate each patient allowing me to work with them while we discover their best path to a healthy mouth.
I am from Wisconsin, a proud GreenBay Packer Fan with 13 + years of experience as front desk.
As an Expanded Functions Dental Assistant for the past seven years, I enjoy working chair side with patients to give them the best dental experience possible. Being a native to this very town I trained, fell in love with dentistry and became certified there. I have a true passion for helping and truly love easing patients when they have questions or concerns with procedures. Being thorough and honest with patients during treatment is something I take pride in. I also take delight in, like Dr. Bailey, the tougher cases. It gives me pleasure to see how completely enthusiastic patients are when they see their final result.
I was born in Indiana and moved to Florida with my family when I was 15. I have three beautiful children and two beautiful granddaughters. I have been in dentistry for 27 years. I love taking care of patients, giving them comfort and making them smile. In my free time, I love family time, the beach, shell hunting, paddleboarding, singing and dancing.
Hello, I'm Karissa! I'm originally from a small town in Northeast Wisconsin. I've been in Florida since 2008, and I began my dental career in 2012 as a dental assistant. I then continued my passion when I returned to complete the Dental Hygiene program at Eastern Florida State College in 2016. I have learned a lot by seeing a variety of practices, and now I have settled down at an amazing office where the team and I see eye to eye. I'm currently a single mom of 2 children, so time is limited, but my hobbies include theme parks or anything adrenaline related, and being a die-hard Green Bay Packers fan!
