Welcome to the web site of Brook Dental Associates PA.
Our primary focus is on the prevention of Dental Disease. We emphasize teaching patients how to effectively care for their mouths at home on a routine basis. Brushing & flossing instructions are often a part of recall visits. Other types of preventative measures employed are the use of sealants, fluoride applications and X-ray imaging of teeth.
Our dentists, Dr. Thomas Pluhar, Dr. Douglas Ely, & Dr. Louis M. Scibelli have a combined experience of more than 50 years in treating Dental Pathology. With this much experience, you can rest easy knowing that you and your family will receive the best dental care possible.
