Check the listing for hours, whether the office takes your insurance or Medicaid, languages spoken, wheelchair access and parking, then confirm by phone: insurance networks and providers change more often than the listings do.

Wilkes-Barre is in Pennsylvania, in the Northeast, where four distinct seasons shape local life: hot humid summers, snowy winters that can close businesses for a day, and a dense pattern of towns where walking, transit and street parking all matter. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and Wilkes-Barre follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

Everyone is so kind and friendly. They do amazing dental work. They are informative and explain everything. The ladies have answered every question I have ever had and very thorough. Wonderful! Highly recommend and have before. We love them. They have helped make my kids more comfortable with the idea of dentist instead of afraid of the dentist.

Amazing dental practice! Dr. Holena and the entire staff go above and beyond to make my autistic son comfortable and they take care of concerns quickly. So, so grateful for Special Care Smiles and would recommend them to any special needs families. There are some really cute dogs there to help distract the kids, my son is afraid of dogs and every time they secure them just for him. We appreciate them so much!!

I cannot recommend Dr. Holena and her team highly enough. After seeking a second opinion for my son, Dr. Holena identified several cavities that had been missed by our family dentist. Her thorough evaluation and attention to detail gave us confidence that our son was receiving the highest level of care. From the moment we walked into the office, every member of the staff was incredibly warm, welcoming, and supportive. As a parent, learning that your child needs additional dental treatment can be stressful, but Dr. Holena and her team were reassuring every step of the way. They took the time to explain the treatment plan, answer our questions, and help my son feel comfortable and safe. What truly sets this practice apart is the environment they have created for children who require more than just routine cleanings. The office is clearly designed with pediatric patients in mind, and the staff demonstrates remarkable patience, compassion, and expertise in caring for children with more complex dental needs. Because of the outstanding care we received, we will be transitioning our son's ongoing dental care to Dr. Holena's practice. We are so grateful to have found a pediatric dentist

My daughter who has autism is a patient of Special Care Smiles and has seen them prior for regular cleanings. Today she had to have her baby teeth pulled under anesthesia. Prior to her appointment today I had a detailed discussion over the phone with Dr.Gallagher about her not so great past experiences with anesthesia and how she has woken up very combative and confused in the past. Even over the phone Dr.Gallagher was very kind and attentive to detail. In the office he was very patient and worked so well with her. We had such an amazing experience from start to finish with her anesthesia experience. My daughter woke up smiling and was in great spirits. Dr.Holena was also amazing. She was very kind, patient and informative throughout the whole process. Latte and Pete were so sweet and checked in here and there! I wish I got the techs name to be able to mention her but she was very sweet and attentive as well. The whole entire staff was beyond exceptional and I would recommend Special Care Smiles to anyone! I cannot thank you enough!
