“Care” is a buzzword in the dentistry world. But if you want someone to feel like you really care about them, you put forward that extra effort to make sure you know a little bit more about that person.
We know what makes Biddeford Saco Dental Associates unique is our intentionality around looking past your teeth to see the person you are.
Who We Are
This general dentistry practice has been operating continuously in downtown Saco, Maine, for over 80 years. At Biddeford Saco Dental Associates, we have an extremely long community context with patients from Biddeford and Saco primarily, but others from all over southern Maine.
We’re proud of this group of talented friends we get to work with. We’re proud of all the people we’ve helped to keep their teeth beautiful and functional over the years. When we get a chance to brag, it’s around the incredible team of experienced dentists, hygienists, assistants, and staff who are all dedicated to improving oral health with an underlying attitude that “The teeth you have are the best teeth, and you should have them for a lifetime.”
What We Value
The restorative, esthetic, and dental hygiene requirements are standard for every dental practice in the state. We spend a lot of energy exceeding those standards because we have such strong underlying beliefs about how we should treat people. When you believe in something more than just dental, it shapes the experience. You don’t just practice excellent dentistry, you practice good human and relational skills too. This is how we should treat the patients we serve.
- Listening: Sit people up, close your mouth, use your ears.
- Speaking: Ask great questions and say what’s on your mind.
- Giving: Serve with your whole personality and your absolute best work.
- Laughing: Whenever it seems right!
For Families, Forever.
We have long histories with the patients we serve. The practice is over 80 years old, and we’re on our fourth dentist-owner. As a result, we have served generations of families; it’s in our DNA. Today, we’re helping the children of patients who were children with us years ago. When it comes to families, we’re all in.
- To families of five or less: We can schedule you all during the same hour to help simplify your life.
Some Things We Do Very Differently From Other Dentists.
We’re conversational and committed to breaking the dental stereotypes of being “Pressure Salesmen”. Want to know what you’ll be experiencing at Biddeford Saco Dental Associates?
Multi-Specialty Convenience
Most dental practices refer you to multiple specialists for orthodontics, pediatric care, or complex procedures. At Biddeford Saco Dental Associates, we bring those specialists to you. With Dr. Julia Losardo providing dedicated pediatric dentistry and Dr. Amanda Paradis offering comprehensive orthodontic care, your family receives expert treatment across multiple specialties without leaving our office.
This means fewer appointments to coordinate, less travel between offices, and better communication between providers who work together daily. When your child needs both routine care and orthodontic evaluation, both specialists are right here. When restorative work and cosmetic improvements need to be coordinated, it happens seamlessly under one roof.
A New Facility Built For Your Comfort
Our recently constructed facility combines modern technology with thoughtful design focused on patient comfort and convenience. Located just off the interstate with ample parking, we’ve made accessing quality dental care as easy as possible for busy families.
Inside, you’ll find a bright, welcoming environment equipped with the latest dental technology, including CEREC same-day crowns, iTero digital scanning, CBCT imaging, CO2 laser, and Sprintray 3D printing. Every detail was designed to make your experience comfortable, efficient, and genuinely pleasant.
Technology That Makes A Difference
We invest in technology that improves outcomes, not just technology for its own sake. CEREC allows us to design and place permanent crowns in a single visit, eliminating temporary restorations and multiple appointments. iTero digital scanning eliminates uncomfortable impression trays while providing exceptional accuracy for orthodontics and restorations. CBCT three-dimensional imaging allows precise diagnosis and treatment planning for complex cases. Our CO2 laser provides comfortable, precise soft tissue procedures with faster healing.
This technology supports our commitment to providing the highest standard of care while respecting your time and comfort.
Same-Day Family Scheduling
Life is busy, and coordinating multiple dental appointments for a household is complicated. For families of five or less, we offer the convenience of scheduling everyone during the same appointment block, allowing your entire family to complete dental visits in one trip. This thoughtful approach reflects our understanding that your time matters and family logistics are real.
Honest, Pressure-Free Conversations
We will never pressure you into treatment you don’t need or create urgency around procedures that can wait. Our role is to provide honest information, answer your questions thoroughly, and help you make informed decisions that align with your priorities and timeline.
If treatment can be delayed without harm, we’ll tell you. If multiple approaches exist, we’ll explain the pros and cons of each. If cost is a concern, we’ll work with you to prioritize and phase treatment appropriately. This is how friends treat each other, and that’s the relationship we’re building with you.
Four Generations Of Trust
Over 80 years in continuous operation means we’ve earned the trust of generation after generation of families throughout Saco, Biddeford, and southern Maine. That longevity reflects our commitment to doing dentistry the right way: with skill, honesty, kindness, and genuine respect for the people who trust us with their care.
Experience Dentistry Built On Relationships
At Biddeford Saco Dental Associates, we’re not just here to fix teeth. We’re here to build relationships that last decades, serve families across generations, and provide dental care that feels genuinely different from what you’ve experienced elsewhere.
