Information may not be reliable

At Fiddlehead Dental, we serve our patients, both young and old, with state-of-the-art care in a unique environment of warm familiarity. Most of our skilled team members have been with us more than 17 years, so you will always feel that you are in the company of friends.
It's no accident that 90% of our new patients come from word-of-mouth referrals from existing patients.

If you've been putting off a visit to the dentist for years, we may be just the place for you.
Several times each week we get a new patient calling because their friend or co-worker was raving about what a terrific dental experience they just had in our office.... no lectures, no expensive ultimatums, no pain,... lots of options, all the modern "comfort technology" and a lot of warm laughter.

We hope this website will be a refreshingly fun and interesting resource for you time and again. We have written every word ourselves, so you won't find any slick marketing or "canned fluff" here. We like to write in a conversational way so that it feels like you are having coffee with a friend. (That's actually a compliment that we get frequently from patients!)

We also hope the site's thoroughness reflects the kind of "dental home" that you are looking for. The website is uniquely diverse, so take your time exploring. It contains our best observations and advice, after 21 years of experience and continuous study of the latest advances in modern dentistry. Every technology we have mastered in the last 20 years has been chosen because it was sure to make your dental experience easier, quicker and more long-lasting.

The website can only give you a sampling of the level of our care. You will find information on everything from the use of computers and lasers in our office to options for "smile make-overs". In our "News" section you will find out about new discoveries in science that can greatly effect your general health. We've included information about children's dental health , and topics that we call "cool things", as well as quick references for what to do about dental emergencies. There are book reviews, recipes and samples of our staff artwork.

We'd even like to invite you to help us expand the "community atmosphere" of the website, as our goal is to become a community resource for wellness and "good stuff",... A network of like minded people who want to share the unique things they come across. We hope you will share with us your ideas, questions, recommendations on "cool stuff" you've come across: books, recipes, unique websites, gift items, professional services and much more that has made your life better.
A little about our doctors...
Doctors Ulrich and Verderber can serve all of your general dental needs, because uniquely, as husband and wife, they have made a conscious effort to expand their knowledge in separate areas of technological expertise. This allows the office to provide you with exceptional care in specialized areas such as cosmetic dentistry, implant dentistry, wireless braces , laser assisted gum therapy, and many other restorative solutions.
At Fiddlehead Dental, we have tried to master a majority of the best technologies that have come along in the last twenty years, and many of them are addressed here on the site. It has evolved into a snapshot of modern dentistry.

Our office, built in 1854, is a lovely, rambling, historic home, converted to our dental practice in 1988 and re-renovated in 2005. We are locatedat 39 Congress Street in downtown St. Albans, Vermont. Stop in or call us at 802-524-9774. We would love to chat with you!
