I always feel very comfortable going to my dentist at Bright Now Dental. The staff there is very friendly and professional. I’m having a crown put in and my experience has been very good. Minimal pain and stress. Thank you to all the staff at Bright Now at Gunn.

We love Bright Now Dental of Citrus Park!
I had a root canal scheduled by the Clearwater office for Citrus Park. There was some confusion as I was not informed about first having an appointment with the Endodontist, Dr. Gargasz. Dr. Gargasz and his assistant Manuel were amazing. I chose to wait, but it was worth it. They were both professional and friendly. Dr. Aledo and the team are amazing. They make an uncomfortable or painful situation all that much better. Way to go!

Bright Now Dental is by far one of the best dental centers I’ve ever visited. From the moment I walked in, the staff made me feel welcome and at ease. Everyone was incredibly friendly, attentive, and professional.

The entire experience was seamless and from check-in to the actual treatment. The team took the time to explain each step of the process clearly, answered all my questions with patience, and offered thoughtful suggestions for ongoing care. Their commitment to making sure I was comfortable every step of the way was truly appreciated — I’d rate my comfort level a solid 10/10.

It’s not always easy to say a dental visit was enjoyable, but this one genuinely was. I left feeling well cared for and confident in the treatment I received. Highly recommend Bright Now Dental to anyone looking for quality care and a positive experience.

The staff are very welcoming and friendly! When I called with an emergency chipped tooth that needed to be fixed they didn’t hesitate to fit me in. I’m very pleased and have made them my permanent dental office.

As stressful and anxiety inducing is when going to the dentist clinic, Bright Now Dental on Gunn Highway is very welcoming. Staff are very friendly and makes you feel at ease. The clinic is clean. I highly recommend this place.

I had a great experience at this location. Jodi was a great dentist and gave me a real timetable and outline of how to improve my dental health. They want you to get better and come back to make sure of it; and actively want to make sure you get a fair price. Highly recommend this location!

I came back for fillings on my birthday and was given an absolutely fantastic experience. Lala from the gate was hilarious and brightened my day with a combination of quick witted jokes and excellent service. I was promptly taken to the operating room and during the entire operation Lala was making sure I was not in pain and continuing to make me laugh (even when i shouldn’t have!) which made the experience extremely pleasant. Dr Aledo shared Lala’s good sense of humor and competency, and informed me of conditions that i was unaware of and how to watch for symptoms. They even snuck in an operation that I would’ve had to come back for because it was saturday. Very pleased again and recommend you switch dentists here!

I had some on going issues with a tooth and have had to go back for help several times in the past few months. Every time they fit me in very promptly and treated me very kindly until the issue was resolved. I'm not a person who minds dental work very much but I can tell they do their best to make people comfortable knowing it's not everyone's favorite thing.

I recently visited this location and received a replacement of two fillings and a deep cleaning (what they call gum therapy). The dentist was really nice and I didn’t feel like he was shoving unneeded services down my throat (like my last dentist). The hygienist, Jovi is absolutely amazing. She was thorough, kind, and very helpful. Love her!

5 Stars. I go to both the Brandon location and the Citrus Park. BOTH outstanding service. At citrus park I got my wisdom teeth removed. Very quick process don’t remember a thing and the pain (on day 2) is very minimal. I want to highlight the staff, from the front desk ladies (miss curly hair & jessie Reyez look alike) physically helping me remove my acrylic nail so I can use the finger pulse reader during my procedure (no where in their job description, just jumped to the occasion), and the wonderful dental assistant who made me feel safe, educated on the procedure, and just had a loving demeanor while also working hard to get everything set up for a successful procedure with the doctor. The anesthesiologist on time & ready to keep you monitored breathing alive etc(thank you!!!) The oral surgeon makes you feel like you are in great hands (you are!) cool calm collected vibe- much unlike most dentist stories. The Brandon location is just as great, they will ALL make you feel like family Remember your name before even checking in and the sweet dental assistants will rub your shoulder while doing drilling for fillings or tell (actually) great jokes . These places being so great made about 6-7 dental appointments a breeze where anywhere else I’d probably get spooked and not come back lol. Thank YOU BRIGHT NOW DENTAL.

They were kind enough to take me right away. Everything is holding up wonderfully. I plan on making another appointment for him to complete the other side of my face. I can’t thank them for taking me on such short notice. Thank you

I had to travel a bit to reach this Bright Now location, but I’m so glad I made the trip. Dr. Bret Gargasz, the endodontist, was exceptional. His calm demeanor and professionalism immediately put me at ease, completely removing any anxiety I had about the procedure. He is truly a master of his craft. Highly recommended—well done, sir!

I had the best experience I have ever had with a dental office from the front desk, to the dental hygienist, the general dentist and the oral surgeon. I was having a dental emergency and made an appt with the office as a first time patient. As soon as I walked in the door everyone was so kind, efficient and helpful. They got me back quick for X-Rays, and the general dentist came in and was so kind. He explained everything to me and advised that I would need some wisdom teeth extractions. The oral surgeon was in the office that day and came in with his assistant/ hygienist right away and advised they would be able to assist me and it would take about 15-20 min. The girls up front verified my insurance and within 30 min I was having my extractions. The OS was so kind and made me feel 100% comfortable. I woke up today with little to no pain. I cannot thank everyone in the office enough for the exceptional care. I am happy to say I have found a new dental home. 😊

Front office staff and the clinical staff is amazing ! They are very knowledgeable when is comes to insurance and dental treatment, this is the most friendly and comfortable office I've attended. If you need excellent dental care , Dr Aledo is your dentist to call. I absolutely love the manager Tanesha and front staff Marecea , they have helped me get a plan together to get my smile back to great health!
