Dr. Melazzo has been my dentist since I moved to Birmingham 17 years ago and, for me, there is no other dentist in Birmingham. Routine maintenance is quick and painless. He and all the wonderful assistants are always sensitive to “chair anxiety”. Dr. Melazzo did extensive cosmetic work on my upper teeth with crowns and veneers. It was done with the utmost care, professionalism and vision.
I moved to Birmingham two years ago and was referred to Dr. Frank Melazzo by a new friend. I have had many dentists in my life and was prepared for the usual dental experience. This was not the case with Dr. Melazzo. I presented a need for extensive work including bone grafts and implants.
I have been a patient of Caldwell Crossings Dentistry for over 30 years. During that period of time I have encountered numerous problems with my teeth and gums, which required solutions that were outside the normal care concerning dental maintenance and hygiene. Specially designed bridgework, implants, bone grafts, and periodontal treatment to name a few.
My search ended 15 years ago when I met Dr. Melazzo. His outstanding skill, knowledge and ability are equaled only by his integrity and his obvious authenticity. The professional team members are always polite and the office environment is always clean. They also use first-class modern equipment, essential to anyone who desires excellent dental care! Those are a few reasons why I still drive 70 miles from Oxford, Alabama.
I have been a patient here for almost 10 years and the entire staff is very friendly, professional, and accommodating. It’s the best dental experience I’ve ever had. I’ve had some reconstructive work done here, and the results were amazing. This has been my kid’s (age 9 and 11) dental practice their whole lives, and they actually love going in for cleanings and checkups. I have recommended several others and I always hear positive feedback from them. Best practice in town!

Fantastic experience: Our family have been patients for 30 years. We have never had a bad experience, NEVER. The Doctors, the staff, the care, the treatment, the hygienists are in the "exceptional" category. Would not hesitate recommending them for all ages. From tots to seniors
Fantastic experience: The new Doctor Sam which I had never met(I’ve been a patient at Caldwell crossing since late to middle 80’s ) made a spot for me this morning first thing in his schedule to cure a problem for me at 4: pm the afternoon before. He along with the Terrific staff did a great job today Thank You all!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Melazzo is an outstanding dentist! He is young enough to utilize cutting edge technology and old enough to have the experience needed for complex dental situations such as mine.

Fantastic experience: If you are looking for a dentist who is compassionate and caring then you must at all cost go to Caldwell dentistry. Dr. Melazzo is the kindest dentist that I have ever meet. He has worked with me to overcome fears developed when I was a child of going to the dentist. He calls to check on you after procedures if necessary to ensure you are responding well to certain procedures. He provides a direct contact number to him if you need him after a big procedure. He has other specialities making him capable of providing an higher standard of care in comparison to other General dentist. He is upfront with pricing, and he remembers details about his patients to form a relationship! What makes this dentist better than all others that I have experienced is that He sets the tone and expectations for the whole office. From the moment you walk in the door each staff member you interact is the same as He is. You are their focus and it is their priority to take care of you. You feel it as soon as you open the door despite other patients being present for their appointments. They are the standard of care all dentist should aim for. I am extremely impressed with all of the services My family has received!
