Jessica R.

I just found out my dentist, Dr. Chetna Patel is opening her own practice (Midtown Dental Wellness) right near me! My family and I have been seeing her for years, but her new location is so much more convenient. If you’re looking for a caring, highly skilled dental professional and you are near the North Hills area… you won’t find a better or more capable dental provider!

Our family has had an amazing experience with Dr Patel. She's incredibly patient and gentle with my children, always making them feel comfortable and safe. What truly sets her apart is her dedication—on more than one occasion, she's extended care beyond regular work hours when needed, not rushing to finish. That level of compassion and commitment is rare. I'm so grateful to have found such a caring and professional dentist for my family and highly recommend her.

Why should I choose Midtown Dental Wellness?

Our approach is designed to provide comprehensive dental care in a calm, patient-centered environment—supporting not just your smile, but your overall well-being.

What is functional dentistry?

Functional dentistry is a whole-body approach to oral health that focuses on identifying the root causes of dental concerns rather than treating symptoms alone. It recognizes the connection between the mouth and overall health and considers factors such as inflammation, airway and sleep health, nutrition, and the oral microbiome when creating treatment plans. The goal of functional dentistry is to support long-term oral health as part of total-body wellness.

How does functional dentistry differ from conventional or holistic dentistry?

Conventional dentistry often focuses on treating dental problems after they arise, such as cavities or gum disease. Functional dentistry takes a more comprehensive approach by using advanced diagnostics and evidence-based evaluation to understand why these issues occur.

Unlike some holistic approaches, functional dentistry is grounded in scientific research, shared clinical data, and measurable outcomes—combining modern technology with prevention-focused care designed to support long-term health.
