St. Francois Plaza Dental Center

Dr Mike Correale has practiced “Gentle Dental Care” at St Francois Plaza in Leadington since 1997 when he purchased the practice from Dr Frederick Custer. First and foremost, his practice is based on helping people and not hurting people. The comfort of each and every patient is his first concern. Dr Mike the Dentist and his staff attempt to make you feel as comfortable in the chair as if you were at home watching television or sitting casually at your kitchen table. He starts with a simple exam and obtaining patient history to make sure he is completely informed about a patients previous history and past issues. Before providing his services he explains the procedure so that each patient will feel more comfortable with care and treatment. If there is part of the procedure making the patient uneasy for any reason, Dr Mike will attempt to reduce or eliminate that portion that creates trepidation or discomfort. Making a patient wait usually increases anxiety; therefore efforts are made to minimize wait times while in the exam room . He has plans to move to 570 Maple Valley Drive in Farmington, MO with an expansive 8 chair dental practice.
