Convenient Access from Northdale
The drive runs 10.5 miles and usually takes about 18 minutes. Tampa Smile Co. practices in Land O' Lakes, north of the county line, and patients who want a dentist near Northdale often find our route quicker than crosstown trips into Tampa. Grandparents, working parents and Gaither High students all make the trip for cleanings, clear aligners and implant care.
Leave Northdale Park & Recreation Center by Spring Pine Drive and follow Northdale Boulevard to North Dale Mabry Highway. Head north on Dale Mabry, turn west on Van Dyke Road, then take the Suncoast Parkway north on its toll section, the same highway that skirts the neighborhood as the Veterans Expressway. Exit east on State Road 54 and turn onto Bexley Village Drive at The Hub at Bexley.
Our door is at 16992 Focus Lp, Land O' Lakes, FL 34638, beside the AdventHealth freestanding ER and across SR 54 from NorthPointe Village. Get directions on Google Maps from your street. Families in Citrus Park and Carrollwood come north on similar roads.
Every Generation in Northdale Has a Seat Here
Northdale takes its name from North Dale Mabry Highway, the busy road along its eastern edge. It is a census-designated place in unincorporated Hillsborough County, and the Veterans Expressway marks its southwest border. Established neighborhoods surround a public golf club at its center.
The community spans every age. The county rec center draws kids, teens, adults and seniors, and its gym honors Bill Castens of the Northdale OWLS, short for Older Wiser Lively Seniors. The Bob Sierra Family YMCA sits right across Spring Pine Drive, and Northdale Golf & Tennis Club adds pickleball and a restaurant to the mix.
A dental office serving this area needs the same range. On one afternoon our chairs might hold a retiree being fitted for an implant crown, a Gaither student checking aligner progress and a parent squeezing in a cleaning. Each patient gets a private operatory with a TV, so nobody feels rushed or overheard. Coffee and water wait at the beverage station for anyone who arrives early.
We see patients Monday through Thursday from 9 AM to 5 PM and Friday from 9 AM to 3 PM. There are no evening hours, but we open select Saturdays from 9 AM to 2 PM for people who cannot leave work.
Dental Care Notes for Northdale Seniors, Teens and Commuters
Older residents who stay busy on the courts and fairways often reach a point where an old bridge fails or a back tooth cracks beyond repair. Implants replace a missing tooth without clasps or adhesives, and our CBCT 3D imaging measures bone before treatment begins. A complimentary implant consultation lays out the full plan and cost.
Teenagers face different decisions. Clear aligners appeal to high schoolers who want to straighten teeth without brackets showing up in yearbook photos. Our iTero scanner records a 3D model of the bite instead of a tray of impression putty, and that model guides the aligner plan from start to finish.
Commuters on Dale Mabry and the Veterans Expressway often let their own checkups slide. A cleaning every six months keeps tartar and gum inflammation from building quietly over the year. Pairing a visit with a Friday afternoon or a select Saturday can keep a busy schedule on track.
Uninsured adults have a simple way back in. New patients without insurance and without gum disease can book our $99 cleaning, exam and x-ray, and any new patient can choose a $39 exam and x-ray with treatment recommendations. Both give you a clear starting point before anything else happens.
Coffee stains and years of iced tea show up on every smile eventually. In-office teeth whitening is supervised by a dentist who checks your gums first. It is a natural next step once a teen finishes aligners and a parent decides it is their turn.

Frequently Asked Questions
How far is Tampa Smile Co. from Northdale, and how do I get there?
The office is roughly 10.5 miles from Northdale Park, about 18 minutes by car. Use Northdale Boulevard to Dale Mabry north, Van Dyke Road west, the Suncoast Parkway toll section north and SR 54 east. Many patients searching for a dentist near Northdale find that easier than heading south into Tampa. Allow extra time at rush hour.
How long should a crown last for an active Northdale senior?
Many crowns last 10 to 15 years or longer with good care. Grinding, chewing ice and decay at the edge of the crown shorten that span. At each checkup the dentist looks at the margin where crown meets tooth, and digital x-rays help spot trouble underneath before it causes pain or loosens the crown.
Can active Northdale seniors replace a missing tooth without a removable denture?
Yes, a dental implant replaces a single tooth without any removable parts. It is anchored in the jawbone and topped with a crown that looks and works like a natural tooth. We start with a complimentary consultation and a CBCT scan, then explain timing, cost and financing so you can decide comfortably.
Can teens take their aligners out for sports and lunch?
Yes, Invisalign trays are removable, so students take them out to eat and brush before putting them back. They need to stay in for most of the day for treatment to work. Students and parents can see exactly how wear time fits around school with our complimentary consultation.
What does it mean if my gums bleed when I floss?
Bleeding gums usually signal gingivitis, the early and reversible stage of gum disease. Plaque along the gumline irritates the tissue, and daily brushing and flossing plus a professional cleaning often clear it within a few weeks. If bleeding comes with receding gums or loose teeth, the dentist will check for periodontitis, which needs deeper care.
