Crognale Family Dentistry

Dr Steve and Dr Melissa were taking a walk down memory lane in the Temple Dental ‘79 yearbook this morning. We noticed that Dr Steve’s first name was spelled wrong!

After the quarantine closure, our staff worked unbelievably hard to make up all of the missed appointments over the summer months. We are so incredibly grateful to be surrounded by such wonderful, kind, hardworking employees. This morning, we took a break for staff massages at the Hershey Spa to recharge and rest. Way to go, girls!! We are so proud of your efforts for our patients.

We would like to welcome Dr Sarah Ostrander to our team! Dr Ostrander is a dental hygienist, not a dentist. But she has a doctoral degree in health sciences and is the Director of Dental Hygiene at HACC. Since HACC is currently learning remotely, Dr O has agreed to help us out with a few cleanings every week. Thanks so much for joining our team, Sarah!

Hip hip hooray! We are allowed to provide routine cleanings again! Please call (717) 898 - 6068 to get scheduled!

We are so incredibly grateful to Carley Smith Safety Services for coming out this morning and giving us a safety lecture in N95 respirator use, donning and doffing of dental PPE, and disinfectants and sanitizers. Carley, you were awesome, and we appreciated the education so much!!

Dr Melissa is in the office M-Tu-Th of this week and M-Tu-Th of next week, treating people in need of immediate attention. If you have a broken tooth, or need an extraction, please call us at (717) 898-6068. Amy will be happy to work you into the schedule. Thanks!!

We will begin the slow re-opening of our office on Monday morning, May 11th, with modified hours and reduced staff, under the guidance of the Pennsylvania Department of Health. We anticipate that our gradual re-opening will take place over the course of the next 3 weeks. For this first week, Dr. Melissa will be the only provider working in the office.... If you have any questions, or any dental needs, please contact our front desk at (717) 898-6068. Thank you!!

Hello Everyone, Our front desk is currently rescheduling patients through Friday April 24th. We still do not know when we will be able to open again for regularly scheduled patients. Dr Melissa is always on call for any patients with emergencies.... In the meantime, Happy Easter week and Happy Passover week to anyone celebrating!

To our dear patients, We are still closed for routine dental care, per the recommendations of the American Dental Association and the Pennsylvania Department of Health. But please know that we miss you, and look forward to the day that we can get back to work.... Cheers to better days ahead! Stay well.
