“Excellent, professional, and very modern.”
“I was looking for a new dentist when I moved to Merritt Island and Dr. Wilkhu and Schmid had excellent reviews. After having several visits, exams, X-rays and minor restorations, I could see why they were so highly rated. Their service is excellent, professional and very clean/modern with the latest tech. Also, Brandy, the billing specialist at the front desk has been exceptionally helpful to me with my AFLAC forms. My dental hygienist has also been very good. Highly recommend this dentist office.”

Our Featured Procedures
at Family Dentistry & Prosthodontics
Our board-certified prosthodontist teams with the best surgeons in the area to replace teeth from the root to the chewing surface. Precisely planned surgery completed with natural-looking custom restorations is designed to benefit your health, appearance, and confidence.
The All-on-4 dental implant method can support a full-arch denture on just four strategically placed implants. It's often the preferred method for patients who have been told they don't qualify for traditional implants or would otherwise require bone grafting.
If you have widespread oral health concerns that no single dental procedure can address, our Merritt Island dentists can design a custom full mouth reconstruction plan that combines procedures and addresses all your needs at once. We welcome complex cases.
Dentures in Merritt Island, FL, can allow you to enjoy your favorite foods and speak clearly once again, while restoring a youthful look by providing support to your facial features. In some cases, we can convert an existing set of dentures into a more stable implant-retained restoration. We also offer same-day denture repair.
Twice-yearly cleanings and exams go a long way in keeping your smile healthy. If one of our dentists notices an oral health concern during your exam, they can treat it quickly, before it develops into a serious problem. Let us partner with you in your care to keep your smile healthy for life.

Dr. Wilkhu listens to concerns and is not pushy on any procedures that might not be needed right away. Tiffany does an excellent job as hygienist and has a very nice demeanor. Overall I am very happy with the services I have received.
