Did you know that as much as20% of the population has a fear ofgoing to the dentist? Avoiding thedentist can affect more than your den-tal health, it can ultimately affect yourphysical wellbeing. If you’re one ofthe thousands of people who avoid thedentist, you’re not alone! But don’t letyour fear of going to the dentist keepyou from your best smile yet. If youwant an experienced, educated andcommitted dentist who puts yourcomfort and health first, then make anappointment at Monticciolo Familyand Sedation Dentistry.

In the scheme of things, dentistryis one of the newest fields in medicine,and studies show that not caring foryour teeth and gums can lead to seri-ous health issues in the rest of yourbody, including your heart! That’swhy, when Vincent J. Monticciolo,DDS, MBA, JD became a dentist, heaimed to create an experience that wasrelaxing, happy and stress-free for hispatients. By doing so, Dr. Monticciolohas created a dental practice that fo-cuses on providing dental care that ex-tends to the whole person, puttingyou at ease and allowing you to re-ceive the care you need without thestress and anxiety that often accompa-

nies dental work. By providing a widevariety of sedation options for pa-tients, the phrase “sedation dentistry”and the name Dr. Monticciolo havepractically become synonymous in ourarea.

Churches spend a lot of time try-ing to sell you on why to visit them ona Sunday morning: attractive post-cards, praise bands, and a worshipservice that is just short of a Broadwayproduction to entice visitors to walkthrough the door. If you’re lookingfor a lot of bells and whistles, TrinityPresbyterian Church probably isn’twhat you’re searching for in a church.If, instead, you’re looking for a placeof worship where people are connect-ing through their shared faith, youmay want to check them out. It’s afamily church, but Pastor PhilipHollins’ vision of a family is a littlebroader than mom, dad and the kids

in their Sunday best. Whenyou talk to Pastor Philip andhis staff, the focus of theirministry is obvious: Get peo-ple connected. They knowthat providing opportunitiesfor Christians to connect infriendship creates opportuni-ties for people of all ages andbackgrounds to grow in theirfaith and share a more mean-ingful relationship with God.

Pastor Hollins’ wife,Tracey, is the Youth Director.She laughingly sums up Trinity’sapproach to ministry in seven words,“We worship, we serve, and we play.”Tracey readily admits it’s much deeperthan that. It’s about community, andcommunities are made up of all types

It’s true, when you’re looking tosell or buy a home, it can be a tryingtime, but the good news is that themarket is picking up tremendously. Infact, now is an excellent time to sellyour home, as it is considered a seller’smarket! Basically, that means thatthere are more buyers looking forhomes in our area than there arehouses to be sold!

this strong, it means that when some-one decides to sell, there may be mul-tiple families interested in the property– keeping the asking price higher thanit would be in a buyer’s market.

She can guide you through thebiggest question of all, which is choos-ing the right price. Pricing your houseright from the get-go is the most im-portant thing you can do as a seller.Denise can pull the “comps” andcompare your home’s value to otherhomes that have sold recently, taking

into consideration yourunique property and the spe-cial things that you may havethat others don’t. For exam-ple, if your home has a pool,it may be worth more. Or ifyou have recently replacedyour roof, your air condi-tioner or your appliances,those things may stand outto a buyer and give yourhome the advantage. Denisewill take the time to sit withyou and evaluate yourhome’s individual value andhelp to translate that value bylisting it on MLS, the real es-tate online system that all re-altors pull from.

Additionally, once abuyer is interested, Denise canhelp to make sure that theyare a financially qualifiedbuyer, and protect your assetsby helping the process to gosmoothly, from choosing a priceand listing the property, to signing theclosing paperwork.

Trinity will soon be the nexthome to the national franchise, Kids RKids Academy. Anitha Thomas is theowner of Kids R Kids Academy inWesley Chapel and is excited to openTrinity’s brand new state-of-the-art fa-cility. Anitha says that she looked fortwo years to find the perfect propertyin Trinity that would allow students toenjoy the natural beauty of the area.The 17,000-square-foot facility sits ontwo acres of property at 11081 TrinityBoulevard in Trinity. From infants asyoung as six weeks old to school-agedchildren who need before and afterschool care and summer camps, KidsR Kids of Trinity has a program to fityour family’s childcare needs.

Owner Anitha Thomas comesfrom a family of educators, and taughtEngineering Physics at the collegiatelevel before she opened Kids R Kids inWesley Chapel ten years ago. Whenyou first come to Kids R Kids you’llnotice Anitha takes safety seriously.Each parent is supplied with a smallfob that allows him or her secure ac-

cess to the building, similar to a key-less hotel card. After a fob is used toenter the building the parent uses atouch screen at the counter to signtheir child in and out of Kids R Kids.There is always a director at the frontdesk, and there also is a security cam-era in the lobby. The glass walls in thepreschool allow the classrooms to bevisible to each other and help the chil-dren transition to their next develop-mentally appropriate learning areaeasier. Each classroom has two cam-eras that online stream through a se-cure website that parents can sign upon to view their child during the day.

The school is designed to hold290 children and Anitha keeps eachage group at a lower teacher/studentratio than the state requires, which al-lows for better teacher interaction withthe children. Each class has one leadteacher (who has a CDA, A.A. degree,or bachelors degree, and five or moreyears experience) and one or more as-sistants (who have completed DCFtraining and have a minimum of oneyear childcare experience). The Trin-ity location will have at least thirty-six

employees to meet the children’sneeds.

Kids R Kids has its own SACSapproved 42-week progressive curricu-lum, along with a 10-week SummerCamp curriculum for all age groups.Curriculum has teacher-directed andchild-directed activities throughoutthe day. Program also includes music,Spanish, sign language, manners andcharacter development. The class-

rooms have between four to eightlearning stations for student choicethat includes library centers, dramaticplay, hands-on exploration and math,depending on the age of the child.

If you have a school-aged child,Kids R Kids Academy drops off andpicks up children at Odessa, Trinity,Trinity Oaks and Longleaf Elementaryschools. Children ride in a school buswith seatbelts between their school

and Kids R Kids Academy, where theytoo can enjoy the new facility.

Anitha’s love of technology andthe natural setting of the Trinity loca-tion can be seen in the design of thenew preschool with the uniqueSTEAM (science, technology, engi-neering, arts, math) lab, media centerand outdoor nature area. TheSTEAM lab will be run by a full-time,qualified teacher who will provide chil-dren an opportunity to explore sci-ence, technology, engineering, artsand math outside of their classroomsetting. The media center will focuson technology; allowing students to

have interactive learning opportunitiessuch as creating videos the staff willshare with parents. The outdoor na-ture area includes an outdoor class-room, a garden area for seasonalplants, garden boxes and raised waterand sand areas. In addition to theoutdoor nature area, there is a fullyshaded play area for infants, two- andthree-year-olds, three- and four-year-olds, and a play area for children fourand older. Having different play areasfor different ages ensures children areplaying on age-appropriate, safe equip-ment. Daily children visit both theoutdoor nature area and the play area,

allowing them to really enjoy the natu-ral beauty of Trinity’s Kids R Kids’ lo-cation. The outdoor water park areawill be completed by summer, and issure to be a favorite spot for the kids!

Another unique aspect of Kids RKids Academy is the full size cafeteriathat holds nearly fifty students at atime. They have a full sized kitchenthat is run by a certified chef who cre-ates well-balanced, nutritional mealsfor the children. A hot breakfast, hotlunch and snack are all included in theprice of your child’s tuition. This is agreat convenience for parents, andhelps make the transition to an ele-

mentary cafeteria easier for children. Anitha says that communication is

an important aspect of Kids R KidsAcademy. “Teachers assess studentsand the results are provided to par-ents. In the fall the reports will beavailable on line, so if parents are toobusy at pick up or drop off to commu-nicate with teachers about their child’sgrowth they can look on line when it’sconvenient for them. There are eightto nine different aspects, or categories,on the report, depending on thechild’s age.”

With a successful Kids R KidsAcademy branch in Wesley Chapel,Anitha is excited to be offering Trinitya state-of-the-art facility for the fami-lies in the area. The location allowsstudents to have authentic learning ex-periences both inside and outside witha nurturing staff.

“I just don’t understand it. Mystudent has an excellent GPA andgood class standing, yet cannot scorenearly what I expected on the PSAT,SAT, or ACT. Dr. Adams, can youhelp us?”

This time of year, I receive manyphone calls like this from parents ofjuniors after they have received thenext round of score reports. And it isalways a question when parents receivetest score results which are a surprise.

My answer is always, “Yes,” whichtranslates into my normally improvingthe student’s SAT superscore by 200 –350 points, or their ACT compositeby 4 – 7 points.

Why is there this inconsistency be-tween a student’s capabilities andscoring?

During the past five years, I havefound three key reasons that studentsdo not achieve their best scores onthese exams. First, they are not prop-erly prepared – most often just readinga book or going through a prepcourse by a part-time teacher who

normally uses “outdated” tutoringmethods and materials. Second, asimportant, the students have not beenproperly prepared mentally for theexam including the underlying moti-vation to do their best – which oftenleads to “high test anxiety” and theinability to think at their best duringthe exam. Third, regular high schoolclasses do not prepare students towrite the type of essays needed, tohandle the needed grammar, to readquickly – usually around 200 wordsa minute, and to know and to use theneeded math skills which are quitedifferent from what is taught.

What are some recent examples ofyour students in this category?

This past exam cycle, I had twostudents who fit into this category.Student #1 had a 3.4 GPA at a goodpublic high school and a superscoreon the PSAT Exam of 142. Aftercompleting my SAT Prep Class, hescored a 1650 on a full SAT Exam.Student #2 had a 4.3 GPA with anacademic ranking of #2 in an IB

program at a private school. She had asuperscore of 145 (1450 adjusted) onher PSAT, and the same range for hervery recent SAT Exam. After complet-ing my SAT Prep Class, she scoredover 2000 on her SAT.

What makes the difference?The keys for these improvements

were building confidence, learningnew ways to find correct answers,following my detailed essay guide,learning my revolutionary way toscore in math through “Quick Solve,”and a balance between skill-develop-ment, concentrated practice, and notmaking “silly mistakes.” It is verygratifying to see everything “click”for a student with their finally beingable to “score their best.”

I think part of achieving theseresults year after year is the definitionof “success” that every student learnsin my class. Success on the SAT or theACT is defined as, “When a studentwalks out of the exam, that student says,‘I have done my best given my prioritiesand my time available to prepare.”

Another important part is beingable to quickly recognize where thestudent is with their academic founda-tion and test-taking abilities. All of mystudents are special in their own ways.A great part of my role is to quicklyunderstand a student’s personality,preparation level, and how that stu-dent can best proceed. This usuallytakes about twenty minutes in our firsttutoring class because I have seen somany combinations during the pastfive years of tutoring and can spot thekey characteristics very quickly.

When should these needs beaddressed?

Many parents want tutoringduring the school year, which workswell although most students are verylimited in the time they have to studyoutside of our classes. Others prefertutoring over the summer, wherestudents can really focus on buildingtheir knowledge or skills – althoughthis type of student also needs toreview prior to taking the exam(s)in the fall. For summer students, Ido have an optional “two class finalreview” to refresh their memories andtest-taking skills if needed.

Why Do Strong Students Not Score Well on the SAT and ACT Tests?

It was their night to shine andthat they did. On February 13th2015 Trinity New Life Church inOdessa was a part of the Tim TebowFoundation’s “Night to Shine” promevent in celebration of the founda-tion’s fifth year anniversary. The“Night to Shine” prom was celebratedby more than 7,000 guests with spe-cial needs, at locations throughout 26

states and three countries. Guests weretreated to a magical night of dinner,dancing, and friendships.

Locally, Trinity New Life Churchin Odessa hosted the event and withhelp from more than 100 volunteers,the 85 guests arrived to cheering pa-parazzi as they walked the red carpet.Once inside, each guest was greetedby their own personal buddy, and was

given flowers, a crown or tiara, a limoride, professional photos and a photobooth. Even before the event manyguests took advantage of the free pro-fessional hair and makeup services of-fered. Then, they danced the nightaway! Laughter and smiles becamecontagious immediately.

In addition to the many volun-teers, many businesses throughout the

Trinity area also donated their services.Christo’s Family Restaurant, DG Pho-tography, Make-up by Kristy Lynn,The Hair Lounge, Olympus Limo,and Sugardarlings all eagerly jumpedon board to make this event a night toremember. A dog therapy group called“Canines for Christ” also made a spe-cial appearance.

Pastor Clayton Bell wholeheart-

Trinity New Life Church Supports Tim TebowFoundation’s “Night to Shine” Prom


edly embraced the opportunity to hostthe “Night to Shine” at Trinity NewLife Church. “We don’t want to bejust located in a community, we wantto be a part of that community,” ex-plained Bell. “Here in Pasco County,we have a huge population of thosewith special needs and we don’t wantto ignore what’s going on in our owncommunity. We want to dive in to be ablessing and bring life, encourage-ment, and faith to them as well.”

Event coordinator Kala Hamil-ton, says, “It wasn’t just an act of lovefrom the community, it was a blessingfor the community. We brought in

120 volunteers and many of thesepeople didn’t realize how amazing andinspiring the special needs communityis. Many are just now being touchedby how special this population can beand now it’s just going to spread likewildfire.”

One volunteer stated, “If it trulytakes a village to raise a child, thenmaybe it also takes a village to throw aprom worthy of such special guests.Not only did they shine, their over-whelming appreciation and joy was socontagious that I knew I was experi-encing something special. It is some-thing I will never forget.”


Gigi adds, “About 2 or 3 times amonth, we rent a van and one of ourvolunteers will drive the dogs and catsto Pennsylvania. We can usually get25 dogs in one van with 2 cats sittingup front with the driver.”

In addition to transporting lucky

rescues to a new life up north, PawPrint Hearts also finds home for dogsand cats locally and helps to rehabilitatedogs or cats that the shelter has deemedunadoptable. Gigi says, “We are notgoing to turn an animal away becausethe shelter says they have health or be-

By Marcy Sanford

Since May 2014, Paw PrintHearts has saved more than 300 dogsand 80 cats from being euthanized.Gigi Gauthier founded Paw PrintHearts after volunteering at the Hills-borough County Animal Shelter(HCAS), now the Pet Resource Cen-ter. She says, “While I was volunteer-ing at HCAS, I saw many young andhealthy animals being killed becausethere was no space left for them. Aftersome research, I realized that therewere some states where the animalshelters had space and had people whowanted to adopt dogs and cats.”

Now Gigi receives phone callsfrom shelter volunteers when there is adog or cat that is scheduled to be eu-thanized. After the call, she and therest of the Paw Print Hearts’ volun-teers spring into action to help savethe animal.

Gigi says that they have sent dogsand cats to Pennsylvania, Illinois, andConnecticut, but have found a shelterin Pennsylvania that truly is a life sav-ior for Florida’s orphaned dogs andcats. “The director at the shelter isoriginally from Lakeland, Florida, and

he is able to find homes for all thepets we send him,” says Gigi. “Thechallenge is getting the animalsthere.” Gigi says that Paw PrintHearts relies on volunteers to makethe 32-hour round trip to Pennsylva-nia with a load full of furry cargo.

Paw Print Hearts is a Beacon of Hope for Local Dogs and Cats

Since founding PawPrint Hearts Animal Rescue in May 2014, Gigi Gauthier has helped save the lives of over 300dogs and 80 cats from being euthanized. By finding them new loving homes, these dogs are given a second chance at

life and the opportunity to find a forever home!


havioral issues. Most health issues areeasily fixed and we have wonderful vet-erinarians who help us out. Many timesbehavior issues are due to the fact thatthe animal has been taken away fromthe only home it has ever know andstuck in a crate. They are scared and notsure what is happening to them. Usu-ally, with a little work, their true, lovingpersonality comes out.”

Paw Print Hearts counts on itsvolunteers to foster the animals, or insome cases boards them at local facili-ties. Gigi estimates that it costs ap-proximately $200 per dog to rescuethem from death but she thinks eachone is worth it. “We want to be ableto help as many dogs as possible andit has been wonderful that the dona-tions we’ve received to date have

helped us rescue as many as we have,”says Gigi. “Any donation helps andevery dollar of the donation goes tohelping the animals.”

She adds, “My mission is to res-cue. My dream is that someday Iwon’t have to.”

Pastor Philip Hollins has been atTPCoSS since 2006, and his friendly,approachable demeanor puts everyoneat ease. His way with words and hisdedication to his church have helpedTPCoSS to become a growing family-based church. Together with the manyvalued employees and volunteers attheir church, they put together anamazing year-round calendar of fun-filled activities for members.

David Henderson said, “This is agreat church with a truly wonderfulpastor. He is very friendly and outgo-ing.”

What Are You Doing This Sunday?Come to Worship at TPCoSS!

If you’re looking for a traditional,family-based church where you willfeel at home, come to TPCoSS! Offer-ing two services every Sunday, TrinityPresbyterian Church of Seven Springsaims to meet you wherever you are inyour journey.

Their 8:30 a.m. service is lovinglyreferred to as The Gathering, andthat’s a great name to exemplify whatit is! It’s an intimate, smaller gatheringof people who enjoy an hour of wor-ship, sharing and thanksgiving. Herepeople offer up prayers for the peoplethey love, gather to thank God fortheir blessings, and receive Holy Com-munion each week. At The Gathering,worshipers leave refreshed, hopefuland ready to take on the week ahead.

The 10 a.m. Family Service takesa more traditional approach and oftenfeatures their two choirs, the ChancelChoir (vocal) and the Trinity Ringers(handbells). Holy Communion isserved on the first Sunday of eachmonth at this service. Traditional,comforting and inspiring, the FamilyService is really ideal for everyone. Ifyour idea of church is hymns andwarmth, comfort and joy, while learn-

ing about Christ, then you’ll lovecoming to church at TPCoSS!

Children are especially doted onat TPCoSS; in fact, the children areeven given an activity bag when theycome into the Family Service. This is agreat time for them to worship withtheir families, say the Lord’s Prayerand begin a lifetime of closeness withGod. Then, after about fifteen minutesand a special sermon aimed at theirlevel of understanding, the childrenare released to go participate in Chil-dren’s Worship. There, they have funwith other children their age and learn

about the topic of the week. After theFamily Service, children are invited toSunday School, where they learn to-gether and play! Sunday afternoon atTPCoSS is filled to the brim with fam-ily programming. From 4-6 p.m. kidsof all ages gather to worship, serveothers in the community and ulti-mately play!

Montic-ciolo Family and Sedation Dentistryalso offers teeth whitening, sealants toprotect your teeth from cavities,crowns and bridges, cosmetic den-tistry, root canals, bonding, gum sur-gery, and Invisalign (braces).

If you’re sure you want sedation,you can rest assured that you’re ingood hands. Dr. Monticciolo is an ac-tive member of the American DentalSociety of Anesthesiology and theFlorida Dental Society of Anesthesiol-ogy. He’s been trained and certified inthe safe and effective use of I.V. Seda-tion for dental procedures, and he alsois certified in Advanced Cardiac LifeSupport. Best of all, Dr. Monticcioloinvested in additional monitoringequipment for his sedation patientscalled Capnography, and to be surethat the Florida weather would notcause any power outages during im-portant procedures, he’s added a 70KW commercial generator to the New

Port Richey location. That meansyou’re safe to relax, breathe easy andsmile!

“Happy Is Back!”I’m sure you’ve seen the signs all

around Tampa Bay that exclaim that“Happy is Back!” That’s because Dr.Monticciolo recently opened up hisbrand new office in New Port Richey,located at 5139 Little Road, across thestreet from Starbucks and McDon-ald’s. For years, Dr. Monticciolo had abusy practice nearby, and at one pointhe sold that practice, and opened up anew one in Tampa at 8327 W. Hills-borough Avenue. Once he got thatone up and running he knew that hewanted to return to New Port Richey,and to the many patients here whomissed him.

His new office is a 6,500-square-foot facility that includes 17 privatedental suites; an on-site denture andpartial lab; a full porcelain lab; a pre-op sedation room; state-of-the-artequipment in dentistry including lasersfor implants and gum procedures; en-tertainment options galore for patientsincluding personal televisions, DVDcapability and wireless blue-toothheadphones. There is even a sedation

lounge for guests who are waitingwith patients who are being sedated!Phew! It’s quite the experience!

From the moment you arrive, youfeel at ease. So many details have beenthought of – a peaceful waterfall, aspacious waiting area, a modern coffeestation, large flat-screen TVs, andmost importantly, a doting staff.

Each of the Monticciolo Familyand Sedation Dentistry offices offercare by additional associates: FadiFares, DMD; Chelsea Fenton, DMD;Juan Marcos, DMD; Donald J. Horn,DMD; and Scott N. Folino, DDS. An

Endodontist and a Periodontist alsoservice patients at both practices en-suring that Monticciolo Family andSedation Dentistry patients’ needs aremet with as much ease and conven-ience as possible.

The entire staff at MonticcioloFamily and Sedation Dentistry isfriendly, personable, and eager tomake your experience positive. It’s im-portant to note that while having all ofthe toys in the world can make for afantastic experience, it’s really the ex-ceptional care given by the doctors atMonticciolo Family and Sedation

“Dr. Monticciolo”Continued from page 1


Dentistry that stands out and keepspatients coming back time and timeagain.

Patient Angela Hutcheson-Smithexclaimed, “[He’s the] best dentistever. I have followed Dr. Monticcioloto his new offices for the past 10+years, even though he is an hour’sdrive from my home!”

More than a Fancy Slogan, Dr.Monticciolo is an Award WinningDentist with Heart

While many people have heard ofthe name Monticciolo, seen the fancymarketing campaigns and even heard

his name praised by friends and family,what most people don’t know aboutDr. Monticciolo is that he’s a down-to-earth family man who has an al-most-unbelievable drive to learn more,and do more, for his patients and forhis community. A graduate of the Uni-versity Of Detroit’s School Of Den-tistry, Dr. Monticciolo began earningaccolades very early and was selectedto the Honors Clinical Program rightout of school. Some of his accomplish-ments and awards earned in dentalschool include: Dental Class President,earning the Francis B. Vedder SocietyCrown and Bridge Prosthodontics

Award, Alpha Sigma Nu from the Na-tional Jesuit Honor Society and Omi-cron Kappa Upsilon from the NationalDental Honor Society. As if thatweren’t enough, Dr. Monticcioloearned his Law Degree in 2013, allwhile practicing dentistry full time andvolunteering additional time in thedental field.

His passion extends far beyondthe realm of education and into thecommunities where he lives andworks. Seeing so many people from allwalks of life that could not afford thedental care they needed prompted himto begin a charity called Dentistryfrom the Heart in 2001. Beginning asa Valentine’s Day gift to the commu-nity, he offered free dental care oneFebruary day to hundreds of peoplewho lined up outside the door. Sincethen, this charity has become a world-wide phenomenon that has stretchedto include more than 250 events in all50 states, as well as other countriesaround the world. Last month, hun-dreds of people lined up once againoutside his practice and received freedental care through this life-changingcharity.

In 2012, Dr. Monticciolo started“Dental Care Delivered,” a mobiledental service that provides care to res-idents of long-term assisted living fa-cilities and nursing homes along thewest coast of Florida. Many of thesepatients desperately need dental careand would suffer greatly without it.Dr. Monticciolo and his team of asso-ciates and volunteers have really madea difference to the people in our com-

munity, making “happy dentistry” farmore than a slogan.

One patient recently wrote thiscompliment on Monticciolo Familyand Sedation Dentistry’s facebookpage: “May everyone involved in thefree dentistry services for the last 14years be repaid tenfold for their con-sideration to humanity.”

Dr. Monticciolo’s latest adventureinvolves putting his passion for help-ing others onto paper. He recentlywrote a chapter in a book on thepower of giving back that’s sure to bea bestseller.

If you’re looking for a dentistwho has experience and education, adental team that can’t be beat, all thetop-notch clinical tools and patientoptions available, and a heart for giv-ing, then what are you waiting for?Make an appointment for a “happydentistry” experience at MonticcioloFamily and Sedation Dentistry.
