Lauren Ragusa DDS

Lauren Ragusa DDS operates along East Railroad Avenue in Palmetto, a quiet stretch where the pace matches the town’s unhurried rhythm. The practice fits into the block without fanfare, offering services that cover preventive care, fillings, and crowns alongside more specialized treatments like extractions or denture adjustments. Palmetto’s layout means most errands cluster near the railroad tracks, and this office sits right in that flow, making it easy to schedule a checkup between a post office run and a stop at the nearby café.
