I began my journey to restore my dental health, years after receiving substandard care. I learned…read moreproper dental hygiene in my late teenage years and sought dental care routinely ever since. I mistakenly thought dentists I visited took care of my dental needs. I found Dr.'s Strupp/Brumm through a relative. I finally found an honest assessment and evaluation of all which was needed. The team put together with Strupp/Brumm Cosmetic Dentistry includes referrals to highly competent specialists. One of these specialists discovered a cotton ball under an amalgam filling which was placed fifty years before and the tip of an explorer broken off in the canal of another endodontically treated tooth from eleven years ago (all the dentists between then and now missed these problems). This dental history shows the high-level care I experienced before arriving in this team's hands. Several all-day sessions spread over several months and my full mouth reconstruction is complete. Dr. Brumm and his chairside assistants are unmatched in their diligence, attention to detail, and skill. Behind the scenes were the lab personnel who managed to construct near perfect teeth which are indistinguishable from natural teeth in shape, color, spacing, and bite. They even accommodated for several teeth which were not aligned (straight) giving me the best bite possible. The color matches my complexion, completely unlike many smiles (blindingly white) seen in commercials on television. You know, the ones you have to wear sunglasses to look at If you are looking for the best quality for your dental needs, this is where you should visit. Although I travel over 1200 miles round trip, the results are well worth the time and the effort of this team. Steve Colafrancesco

We live in California and came to Dr. Strupp and Dr. Brumm in Florida on the recommendation of our…read morebrother-in-law, a dentist in New Jersey. Both my wife and I who are in our 60's wanted to have better looking (and functioning) teeth. My wife's 4 front teeth had heavy bonding for the last 40 years. Her bite was off from braces acquired 40 years ago; tooth color had also changed. My teeth were functional, but all different colors and sizes and pointing in different directions. We did not know where to go. We had consultations with several well known cosmetic dentists in California and NYC. What was recommended varied widely from braces to veneers to do nothing at all. We checked out the Strupp/Brumm website and the photo gallery was exactly what we were looking for: a beautiful and natural look. So we scheduled consultations for both of us. The Strupp/Brumm consultations were fairly extensive, lasting several hours. It was clear to Dr. Brumm that both of us would benefit from full dental reconstructions. My wife was skeptical. But I jumped in and made the appointments for myself. After the first treatment, my wife joined me. Dina was our coordinator and she did a fabulous job including scheduling, answering our many questions, and dental assisting. She is very professional with great personality. It was a joy to have her working on our case. Drs. Strupp and Brumm are not just great dentists, they are also very personable. The staff are professional and nice, making the long hours of dental work very pleasant. The beautiful spacious office and nearby Clearwater Beach are also pluses. Because of our extensive dental work we were very anxious but the staff and the Drs. make the visits very comfortable. They even served us lunch in the office! Last but not least we would like to mention Jim Free, the in-house ceramist at the office. He is an artist. He crafted our teeth in the in-house lab. He listened to us and worked with us throughout the whole process. At the last fitting, he made alterations on the spot to accommodate our final requests. According to Dr. Strupp, Jim was ranked 2nd in the International Championship Competition of ceramist technicians. To us he is #1. The final product was sets of teeth we could only dream of. The 1st photo is my wife's "before". The second photo is also before, enlargement of the 4 front teeth. 3rd is the final result. 4th and 5th are me, before and after. Final photo is wife's temporary uppers. Even the temporaries looked good and felt comfortable!

My previous 5 star rating was for Dr. Ortiz at Center for Smiles ONLY. The practice was sold and is…read morenow Smile Design. The new dentist(s) may be worthy of five stars also but I don't think it's fair that they "inherit" Dr. Ortiz's ratings. They should be required to start from scratch. I'll start by saying I don't tend to frequent anything other than privately owned and operated dental offices. Big corporations usually rotate dentists in and out so you can never develop a relationship with them. I knew Dr. Ortiz had sold his practice but was still working at Smile Design. However, They did not forewarn me prior to my last appointment approximately 6 months ago that Dr. Ortiz was no longer there and I'd be seeing someone new. The whole staff with the exception of 1 person is new. Consistency is what I absolutely LOVED about Center for Smiles. The staff never changed, they all knew you by name, and the atmosphere was like a family. The new staff couldn't even add up my total charge correctly. The receipt showed $86 but she charged my FSA card $88 & it took weeks to resolve getting that $2 put back (because you know an FSA don't play...they need to verify down to the last penny!) Ugh, I hate when a provider who was absolutely perfect either relocates or retires. Anyone have a dentist they love that you want to recommend??

It's rare to find a dentist who combines technical mastery, artistic vision, and genuine care at…read morethe highest level -- but Michael W. Brumm, DMD, CDT, FAACD does exactly that. From the very first interaction, the experience felt elevated. The office is immaculate, modern, and calming -- more boutique than traditional dental practice. Check-in was seamless, and every member of the staff was warm, professional, and clearly well-trained. There's an immediate sense that this practice runs with precision and intention. Dr. Brumm himself is exceptional. He takes the time to truly listen, thoroughly evaluate, and clearly explain every option without rushing or overselling. What sets him apart is his extraordinary attention to detail and his ability to approach dentistry as both a science and an art. His background and credentials absolutely show in the quality of his work -- everything is meticulous, balanced, and natural-looking. Throughout the process, I felt informed, comfortable, and confident. No shortcuts. No guesswork. Just thoughtful planning and flawless execution. The results exceeded my expectations -- not only aesthetically, but functionally as well. My smile looks natural, refined, and exactly how it should have always looked. The entire team deserves recognition. They are attentive without hovering, friendly without feeling scripted, and genuinely invested in patient comfort and outcomes. Follow-ups were thorough, and every detail -- from scheduling to treatment -- was handled with professionalism and care. If you are searching for high-level cosmetic or restorative dentistry in the Belleair/Clearwater area, this is absolutely the place to go. Dr. Brumm is operating at the top of his field, and it shows in every aspect of the experience. Easily one of the best healthcare experiences I've had -- dental or otherwise. Five stars, no hesitation.

I woke up this morning so rested without a headache, the guard fits perfectly. I was really surprised that it took zero time to get used to. I wore it last night for the first time and fell right to sleep in it :)! It's really comfortable and sort of a minimalist design, not bulky at all compared to other guards I've tried over the years. This one is very durable and cute. It snaps in place on my upper teeth. I noticed this morning while I was waking up, I was physically unable to clench or bite down on one side like I normally do. Amazing, it works like a supportive brace. Previous night guards I gave up on because they hurt and didn't help at all, very uncomfortable and couldn't sleep at all in them. I highly recommend this particular type of night guard. Dr Chamberlain explained the importance of wearing it only for a specified number of hours at a time, as well as instructions for cleaning it/caring for it.

They also referred me to an oral surgeon to get my wisdom teeth removed even though they hadn't grown in yet because supposedly they were going to knock my back molars out of place when they came in. I went and got a second opinion from a dentist who actually practices holistically. He took minimal x-rays, showed me my wisdom teeth were fine, and explained that what they were calling "cavities" weren't actually cavities. It was just how the x-ray was reading. He also told me that removing teeth of any kind should be an absolute last resort because it can directly affect your overall health and that the body can heal and remineralize when you support it properly. I intentionally waited over four years to write this. My wisdom teeth grew in fully and I have not had a single problem. My teeth didn't move, I never developed any cavities, and the whole treatment plan they were pushing turned out to be completely unnecessary. The hygienist was amazing and honestly gave me the most thorough cleaning I've ever had. But this place markets itself as holistic and it's really not. Real holistic care gets to the root cause of things. This was just fear based dentistry pushing procedures you don't need.
