Pediatric Dentistry
The office serving Tice
Fort Myers is the office for Tice, at 8016 Summerlin Lakes Dr, Fort Myers, FL 33907. It is this practice's comprehensive location, so everyday checkups, comfort options, and Dr. Whitesides' orthodontic care all happen in the same building rather than split across two addresses.
We would rather say plainly that there is no Tice office than let a family go looking for one that does not exist. One phone number reaches either of our two offices, Fort Myers or Naples: (239) 482-2722, Monday to Friday, 8 to 5, with a real person answering.
Getting there from Tice
Palm Beach Boulevard, State Road 80, runs directly through Tice and continues toward this side of Fort Myers, so a family already using that road for anything else in town is using most of the same route that leads to our door. Ortiz Avenue and I-75 sit nearby too, familiar landmarks for anyone coming from a little further out.
None of that requires memorizing turns ahead of time. Tell the front desk you are coming from Tice when you call, and they will walk you in from there.
Booking is one quick call.
One number reaches both offices, Monday to Friday 8 to 5. Your child's health details stay in a conversation with our front desk, never typed into a website.
It depends on which end of Tice you're starting from
Tice runs along a real stretch of road, and a family near one end of it has a slightly different starting point than a family near the other, even though both end up at the same office. That is worth naming honestly rather than pretending one set of directions fits every address in the community.
If Palm Beach Boulevard is not the road your family actually uses to get around, say so on the call rather than assuming it is your only option. The front desk can talk through what makes sense from your specific starting point.
What the call itself covers
Booking happens by phone on purpose: your child's health details stay in a conversation with our front desk, never typed into a form online, and new patient forms arrive ahead of time so the lobby is not where paperwork happens.
A quick heads up helps the team more than you would think: first time here, a child who gets nervous easily, sensory needs, a health condition worth knowing about ahead of time, or staying right in the room with your child. Mention it too if Spanish makes things easier, since Dr. Torres is fluent in both English and Spanish. More on the office itself, and what a first visit involves, lives on our Fort Myers page.
Parents ask us
Do you have a location actually in Tice?
No. Tice is served by our Fort Myers office at 8016 Summerlin Lakes Dr, reached the same way most Tice errands are, along Palm Beach Boulevard. One number, (239) 482-2722, is all a family needs to remember.
Is Ortiz Avenue a reasonable way in too?
Yes, it is a familiar road for this side of town alongside Palm Beach Boulevard, and either can work depending on where in Tice you are starting. Mention your starting point when you call, and the front desk can talk through which fits your family best.
Will the same team see my child every visit?
Yes, the Fort Myers office runs on a consistent care team, which matters for special needs dentistry and for any child who does better with familiar faces. Mention that preference when you book, and the front desk will note it.
Ready to set sail?
A real human answers, Monday to Friday 8 am to 5 pm. New patient forms arrive ahead of time, no clipboard scramble.
