About Fetner & Hartigan, Periodontics and Implants
Based on Southpoint Parkway in the Southpoint area of Jacksonville, Florida, Fetner & Hartigan, Periodontics and Implants is a dental practice serving the area. Periodontics is the specialty focused on the gums and the bone supporting the teeth, handling more advanced gum disease, related surgical treatment, and — in many practices — dental implant placement, which sits naturally alongside that training.
Continuity matters in dental care — seeing the same practice over time means your history, X-rays, and any patterns in your oral health are already on file, rather than starting from scratch at each visit. That familiarity is part of what a regular dental home offers beyond any single appointment.
Dental anxiety is common, and most practices are used to working with nervous patients — through clear explanations of what is about to happen, a slower pace where needed, and sedation options for patients who want them. Avoiding the dentist out of anxiety tends to make eventual treatment more involved, not less.
Children benefit from starting dental visits early, generally by their first birthday or within six months of the first tooth coming through, mainly so they become familiar with the setting before any treatment is actually needed. Establishing that routine early tends to make ongoing checkups far less stressful for both child and parent.
Payment and insurance arrangements vary by practice and by treatment, so it is worth asking directly what is covered and what options exist for anything that is not, rather than assuming either way. Getting that clarified before treatment starts avoids surprises once it is underway.
Beyond any single treatment, most dental visits start with an examination — checking for decay, reviewing the gums, and looking at existing fillings or crowns — often alongside X-rays where there is a reason to look between or beneath teeth. That groundwork is what a dentist uses to explain any findings and set out next steps before you leave.

I always have extreme anxiety when the appt is approaching. Melanie is a dental angel. She is so kind and compassionate and conversational. When I come I schedule my appts around her availability because she's just that good! She even sang soft kitty to me 🤣
They provided me with great service they take care veterans and fixed a problem I had that other dentist missed for years!
I visited Drs Fetner & Hartigen for a cracked tooth extraction. The staff took amazing care of me. I was a nervous wreck. Before surgery, my pre-op care with Dental Assistant Diane was kind, compassionate and reassuring - exactly what I needed. She answered all of my many questions beforehand with patience and understanding. Dr. Mike is great at what he does and the front desk staff were also very nice. The entire office provided OUTSTANDING service and care and I absolutely recommend them.
I had a lot of anxiety with my very first appointment but the dental hygienists made me feel very comfortable and were compassionate. Dr. Hartigan was very nice. She is very passionate about her work. She’s great. I had good experiences with my deep cleanings. The hygienists there are amazing. Everyone there is amazing, even the ladies at the front are great. ❤️
I just completed my last visit with Dr. Alex this morning and he was extremely pleased with the outcome of my prosthetic implant (upper teeth). More importantly, I’m beside myself. I’m so pleased with the way. Everything turned out. I feel like I have a natural smile a natural look. Throughout this entire process, Dr. Alex and his staff have been by my side. They are truly a great group of people and Dr. Alex is a great doctor. You can’t go wrong.
Incredible service at Fetner & Hartigan. I've experienced so many people happy to do there job from the customer service counter to the doctor himself. The most stand out of them was Megan and her sister Katie they should probably be training America's customer service departments nationwide. These 2 young ladies have skills to make mils$$$. Their skill sets are very rare in today's market. Overall its a outstanding company with a a extremely rare culture. They can make your bad day into a very good day with their infectious smile and friendliness.
