Dr. Charles T. Zaepfel, DDS

Dental work isn’t exactly the kind of thing people get excited about, but finding a dentist who handles the basics without frills makes the whole process less painful. Dr. Charles T. Zaepfel, DDS covers the expected—cleanings, fillings, extractions—along with the slightly more involved stuff like crowns and bridges. No specialty gimmicks, just the standard care most patients need at some point. The office sits at 1100 Long Pond Rd #115, a stretch of Rochester where medical offices and strip malls blend into the kind of suburban sprawl that’s easy to miss if you’re not paying attention. Booking an appointment means calling (585) 225-7790, because some things still work better over the phone. The area’s a mix of residential quiet and commercial convenience, the kind of place where you might swing by after work or on a lunch break if you’re nearby. For anyone mapping it out, the directions are straightforward—just don’t confuse it with the other professional suites in the same building. Long Pond Road’s got that suburban rhythm: wide lanes, chain restaurants, and the occasional unexpected green space.
