Your Neighborhood Dentist in Leesburg

Friendly Faces, Gentle Care, and a Practice That Feels Like Family

Highland Lakes Dental has been a trusted name in Leesburg for years, and we are proud to be a locally owned practice serving families throughout Lake County. We are not a corporate chain, and we never will be. Here, you are a neighbor, not a number.

Our practice is led by Dr. Ishbel Nieves-Reyes, owner of Highland Lakes Dental since 2011, alongside our associate dentists, Dr. Poonam Popat and Dr. Sara Elizabeth Moore. We are also joined a few times each month by Dr. Marissa Crandall Cruz, a periodontist who partners with our team on specialized gum and implant care. Together, they bring a calm chairside manner, a careful clinical eye, and a genuine commitment to making every visit a comfortable one. We take time to listen, explain things clearly, and build a plan that fits your needs and your budget.

Whether you are coming in for a routine cleaning, finally tackling a long-postponed treatment, or considering a complete smile transformation, you will find a welcoming space where questions are encouraged and pressure is never part of the conversation.

  • Locally owned, independent practice

  • Three highly skilled dentists

  • Spanish-speaking care available

  • Judgment-free, comfort-first approach

The Mouth Is a Window to Your Whole Health

Good Dental Care Is Good Health Care

Your smile says more about your health than you might realize. Heart health, blood sugar, sleep quality, even your immune system, all of it is connected to what is happening in your mouth. That is why we built our practice around a total health approach to dentistry.

When you sit down in our chair, we are not just looking at teeth. We are paying attention to the bigger picture, watching for signs of inflammation, grinding, sleep issues, and other concerns that affect how you feel every day. We then take the time to explain what we are seeing, what it could mean, and what your options are, in plain language, never rushed.

This thorough, whole-person approach is one of the reasons patients across Leesburg, The Villages, and the surrounding Lake County communities have made Highland Lakes Dental their long-term dental home.

  • Comprehensive exams that look beyond the teeth

  • Clear, honest conversations about what we find

  • Modern diagnostic technology for early detection

  • Care plans built around your overall wellness
