Finding a new dentist is always a difficult and nerve-wracking task. Fortunately for me I found Dr. Dan. Dr. Strinkoski's office is located on Western Ave in a one of the beautiful row homes. On a street where all of the spots are metered you'll find two or three un-metered spots right in front of the office. I don't know if this is on purpose or just great luck, either way I appreciate it. The office is very nice and new inside, equipped with every bell and whistle you could imagine (you can watch tv as you have your teeth cleaned!)
Dr. Dan is unlike any dentist I've met in the past. While most are as exciting as a manila folder, Dr. Dan has some real personality. The language in the office is often times loose and relaxed (some "dudes and F bombs might slip out), however his professionalism shines through when he gets to work. I hadn't been to the dentist in about 2 years and I never got that sense of disapproval or shame you can sometimes get from dentists. "How often do you floss? Only once in a while? Hmm, you know its important? Right?" My vacation from the dentist left me with a cavity, which Dr. Dan filled with the speed and efficiency of a NASCAR pit crew. I was in and out within 20 minutes. Another aspect of Dr. Dan's practice that I appreciate is that its basically a one man show. He, rather than and a hygienist, does the cleaning.
If you're looking for great dentist in the Pittsburgh area go with Dr. Strinkoski.
