General, family, and cosmetic dentistry in Ballantyne
Smyleee Rating
Excellent
Aten & Garofalo Dentistry is a general, family, and cosmetic dental practice on Toringdon Way in the Ballantyne area of south Charlotte, North Carolina. The office brings comprehensive dental care together at one location, caring for patients of every age.
General and family dentistry forms the foundation of the practice. Comprehensive examinations, professional cleanings, tooth-colored fillings, dental sealants, and monitoring for tooth decay and gum disease keep teeth and gums healthy, and oral cancer screening is part of thorough routine exams.
For teeth that are damaged or missing, the practice provides restorative treatment including dental crowns and bridges, dental implants, and extractions. CAD/CAM technology supports precise, well-fitted restorations, and cosmetic options such as teeth whitening and porcelain veneers are available for patients focused on the appearance of their smile.
The practice also treats functional concerns, including custom night guards for patients who grind their teeth and oral appliance therapy for sleep apnea — treatment that can ease jaw pain and tooth sensitivity and improve day-to-day comfort.
The team is experienced with patients who feel anxious about dental care, taking time to explain treatment clearly and answer questions, which matters especially for those returning after a long gap. Treatment is paced so patients feel comfortable and informed.
A new-patient visit generally begins with a thorough examination and cleaning, with the dentist reviewing the patient’s history and explaining options before care begins.
The Toringdon Way location is convenient for Ballantyne and the surrounding south Charlotte neighborhoods. You can review Aten & Garofalo Dentistry’s services and contact details on this page and reach the office directly to request an appointment.

Veneers reshape the visible surface of the teeth, correcting color, shape, and minor alignment for a refined smile.
A dental implant rebuilds a missing tooth from the root up, restoring a natural look and a stable bite.
Cosmetic treatment at Aten & Garofalo Dentistry addresses the color, shape, and balance of a smile, tailored to what each patient wants to change.
Dental crowns cover and protect compromised teeth, often after root canal treatment or a large filling.
Dental bridges replace missing teeth with a fixed restoration anchored to the teeth on either side of the gap.

The hygienist was professional and very considerate. The cleaning was done carefully and my teeth feel great. Dr Garofalo was pleasant and knowledgeable . He read my records prior to meeting with me and knew my history when we began talking. The exam was a breeze. Would highly recommend
Dr. Garofalo & his entire team have been nothing but professional and caring. I am having some extensive work done and the ease and comfort they provide has been nothing short of amazing! I would recommend “Dr. G” to ANYONE looking for a new dentist! I hadn’t been to the dentist in over two decades and I had a lot of questions and anxiety walking in. They’ve answered all of my questions and I’m no longer nervous to go to the dentist! They will also work with your schedule to make sure you get the care you need in a timely manner. Nothing but love for Dr. Garofalo and his crew!
Best dentistry experience I’ve ever had. From Vanessa calling to schedule my appointment to Dr. Garofalo and Dina fixing my smile, it was absolutely incredible. Dr. Garofalo was such a joy to see. He knows his stuff, but more importantly he knows how to explain things in a way I could understand. I fully trust his team with my smile. ✨
Love Dr. Garofalo and his team. I had been grinding my teeth for years. Dr. Garofalo suggested I have a custom mouth guard made. I love it. My pain and sensitivity are gone. I can now sleep without worrying about my teeth, and having pain in the morning. Previous dentists suggested an over the counter guard, but those were not good. I am happy Dr. Garofalo had a custom mouth guard made for me. It improved my quality of life. Thank you!
This was my first visit here, and I absolutely loved it. The staff is incredibly friendly, welcoming, and so thorough. From the moment I walked in, I felt comfortable and well taken care of. Dr. Garofalo is very kind and made the whole experience feel easy and reassuring. You can tell the entire team truly cares about their patients. I highly recommend this office to anyone looking for quality dental care and a great overall experience!
