After an initial visit to discuss options, I returned today to have some work done. As you enter these offices you are welcomed by the nicest staff. Everyone is very kind and accommodating. Dr. Higgins took such good care of me; checking on me at each step of the process as well as hours later by phone. I was put completely at ease from the moment of consultation to the actual processes being done. I will be returning soon to plan my next steps. I have full faith and confidence in this office and their staff and I highly recommend them.

Our visit was very pleasant and efficient. My husband has been there several times to have adjustments done. He has lost a lot of weight bc he’s ill. His mouth has actually shrunk so Dr Holsinger fixes him up with a smile every time

I had an outstanding experience at Smiles by Holsinger and Higgins. From the moment I walked in, the staff was warm, welcoming, and incredibly organized. The office is clean, modern, and equipped with the latest technology, which made me feel confident that I was in good hands. Dr. Holsinger is not only highly skilled but also took the time to explain every step of the process clearly and patiently. I appreciated how gentle and precise the care was—I felt comfortable the entire time, which is saying a lot considering how anxious I usually get at the dentist. Whether you’re going in for a routine cleaning or something more complex, I highly recommend Dr Holsinger . It’s rare to find a dental practice that combines professionalism, kindness, and top-tier care so seamlessly.

I cannot praise the entire staff enough. From the ladies who greet you at the door to the dentists …. Everyone has been so kind and thorough. While I am nervous about my upcoming procedures, I’m fully confident in their abilities.

Smiles & More Dental Wellness, formerly known as Smiles by Holsinger and Higgins, is a general, sedation and cosmetic dentistry practice located at 10646 River Road in Denton, Maryland. The practice describes itself as offering comprehensive care under one roof, including implant dentistry, general dentistry, cosmetic dentistry, sedation dentistry, orthodontics, bridges, dentures, therapy for jaw joint disorders, and sleep apnea treatment. According to the practice, dental implants are placed below the gum line to act like natural tooth roots and, once healed, anchor a permanent, natural-looking replacement tooth. The practice notes that implants may suit patients missing a single tooth or several, and that ideal candidates have enough jaw bone, healthy gums, and good overall health.
The practice emphasizes experience and continuing education, stating that its entire team actively pursues training to improve comfort, shorten healing time, and maximize treatment results. Its website lists technology such as same-day crowns, laser dentistry, and photobiomodulation for healing, and a sedation dentistry option for patients who feel anxious about dental visits. The office also highlights its community involvement in Denton and Caroline County, including a Patient Appreciation Day, Habitat for Humanity fundraisers, and the Eastern Shore Dental Mission of Mercy. Patients considering implants can request a consultation online or by calling (410) 479-3644.
The practice's dentists are Dr. Rowland S. Holsinger and Dr. Patricia E. Higgins, a husband-and-wife team who both graduated from the University of Maryland Baltimore College of Dental Surgery in 1982 and built their practice in Denton, where Dr. Holsinger grew up next door to the current office. Both are members of the International Congress of Oral Implantologists, the Dental Organization for Conscious Sedation, the Academy of General Dentistry, the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, the American Dental Association, and the Maryland Dental Association. Dr. Holsinger completed a general practice residency at the Wilmington Medical Center in Delaware, is a Diplomate of the American Board of Dental Sleep Medicine, and has served as Dental Lead of the Eastern Shore Dental Mission of Mercy since 2012. Dr. Higgins completed a residency at Baltimore City Hospitals Medical Center and has served as a Trustee of the Maryland State Dental Association.
