I just wanted to share my experience with my hygienist, Vanessa. After many years of not going to a dentist, I wanted to make sure that I did everything I could to keep my teeth for my senior years. I have never had a cavity, nor had my teeth cleaned regularly. I have always had sensitive gums/teeth, and didn’t go to the dentist because I didn’t think I needed anything from them. Vanessa was assigned to my mouth, and she took on that project with enthusiasm. She has been very mindful of my sensitivity, but that hasn’t stopped her from accomplishing the task of making my mouth healthy. I may flinch, whimper, and have a terrified look, but she’s never been overbearing. After a year, we are seeing positive/wonderful results. I am very happy that Vanessa has taken a vested interest in fixing my abuse. I can’t say that I’m enjoying myself, but I created this situation and Vanessa has been a wonderful advocate for my improved oral hygiene. I just wanted to say thank you very much, Vanessa. I look forward to not needing you anymore. 😉

Dr Woolsey and his team are amazing! Went in for an extraction a while ago, and they made it relaxing and painless! They're great at communication and very clear on instuctions and follow up steps! The view is also a big plus! Highly recommend this place for major dental work! Well worth the 20 minute drive for me!!

Dr W and his team are awesome, great service, very professional and always eager to answer any questions on anything. I had some complicated work done and they were always attentive and helpful, explain complex things in simple, easy to follow English. Definitely recommend this caring group of professionals.

Credible Service with a Bay View! We had a follow-up at request of our regular dentist. DDS Woolsey did a great job of explaining why the situation did not warrant a surgical procedure because the gums have been stable for years. View of Niceville's Boggy Bay is beautiful.

Had tooth extraction and implant appliance installed by Dr Woolsey. He took extra time explaining all the options, then executed exactly what we agreed to. I could not believe how big the root was but the whole procedure went smoothly. The first night after oral surgery, i took one aspirin as insurance. Never took anything additional after that. This was ABSOLUTELY the easiest dental procedure if have ever experienced. Very pleased. Thank you Dr Woolsey and all staff.

About Emerald Coast Periodontics
Emerald Coast Periodontics, located in Niceville, Florida, is a periodontal practice offering specialized treatment for gum disease, dental implants, and soft tissue grafting. The practice focuses on the tissues that support the teeth, treating issues ranging from infection control to full mouth reconstruction. For patients considering dental implants, the practice notes that implants can be used to support single crowns, fixed bridges, dentures, and full mouth fixed prostheses, and that evaluation before any extractions is important so bone support can be preserved for future implant placement.
The practice also works closely with referring general dentists, providing periodontal care and implant therapy as part of a coordinated treatment plan. Patients describe thorough explanations of procedures, clear communication about options, and attentive follow up care after surgery. Whether a patient needs a single implant or a more involved procedure such as ridge preservation or grafting, the team aims to walk them through each step of the process.
