Smile Dental Group is founded by Eliseo Ruiz. By talking to his patients rather than at them, Dr. Ruiz gives them what they want most: respect and reassurance. His areas of expertise encompass the latest advancements in cosmetic dentistry such as dental implants. Dr. Ruiz received his Doctor of Dental Medicine from Nova Southeastern University College of Dental Medicine, graduating in the top 10% of his class. His outstanding academic achievements granted him admission to the Omicron Kappa Upsilon National Dental Honor Society and the American Student Dental Association. While studying for his degree at Nova, he helped provide free dental care for underprivileged children through such programs as the school's A Day For Children Health Fair and the American Dental Association's (ADA) Give Kids A Smile®. Determined to stay on top of the emerging trends and technologies that are transforming dentistry, he remains actively involved in the ADA. When not at the office, Dr. Ruiz likes to slip off to one of his favorite snorkeling spots and lose himself in the beauty of the underwater world.
