Meet Your Merritt Island Dentists

Dr. Frank Cerra has been helping people smile since 1971. He earned his Doctor of Dental Medicine degree from the University of Pittsburgh, and practiced in Pennsylvania for more than 20 years before relocating to Florida.

Dr. Lauren Lockhart enjoys watching her patients' self-confidence grow as their smiles improve. She offers a variety of services including braces and Invisalign to correct problems such as crowding, crossbite, open bite, protruding teeth, teeth that erupted in the wrong place, gaps between teeth, and jaw misalignment. Dr. Lockhart treats adults, teenagers, and children as young as seven, which is when the American Association of Orthodontists recommends children receive their first orthodontic consultation to spot any problems with jaw growth and emerging teeth.

Dr. Lockhart earned her Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from Meharry Medical School of Dentistry in Nashville, TN, and completed a residency in Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics at Jacksonville University in Jacksonville, FL.

She is a member of the American Association of Orthodontists, American Dental Association, and American Association of Women Dentists.
