Gentle Dentistry: A Trusted Legacy of Exceptional Dental Care

There’s a reason Tampa families have been trusting Dr. Angela Rasmussen and GentleDentistry for all of their dental health needs for almost 40 years.

When you walk through the door, you’re more than just a patient. This entire team of dental professionals wants to ensure that you leave with something to smile about.

Dr. Rasmussen (or “Dr. A” as her patients call her) started her practice in 1984, at a time when it was unusual for women to choose careers in dentistry, far less own a practice

“Simply speaking, I wanted to have a practice where I could treat patients like I wanted to be treated,” Dr. A says. “I was driven by providing quality care in a comfortable environment and creating relationships with my patients that make them feel at home.

Relationship-driven, expert, comprehensive care is at the center of what Gentle Dentistry does, and it’s what keeps patients coming back and bringing their families.

“We get to know our patients as people before we look at their teeth,” Dr. A explains. “We’ll take the time to get to know you and find out your goals to come up with a personalized plan for care.”

Gentle Dentistry has become a Tampa mainstay for general, cosmetic and advanced dental solutions. After building the practice for over three decades, Dr. Angela Rasmussen has made the decision to step aside as owner, with Dr. Ryan Lepore taking ownership of the practice to continue the legacy started by Dr. A. The team is joined clinically by Dr. Amanda del Cueto, a doctor with the highest qualifications and skills in restorative and preventative dentistry.

To continue building upon the exceptional quality of care Dr. A has provided, Dr. Lepore and Dr. del Cueto bring valuable education and experience on the oral-systemic connection (the link between the health of your teeth and gums and overall health). Together, this team goes above the standard of traditional clinical dental care to work with you to identify potential risks and offer solutions that can reduce your risk of diseases in the mouth and the body.

In this practice, each patient gets customized treatment that goes beyond x-rays and simple diagnoses. Patients receive highly personalized recommendations for treatment options that have a preventive, proactive, health-focused plan for care.

For dental treatment focused on you, your comfort and your overall health–there’s no better place than Gentle Dentistry.
