Meet Dr. Rita Snyder

Dr. Rita Snyder brings a deeply personal approach to dentistry—rooted in compassion, comfort, and honesty. Originally from Cairo, Egypt, Dr. Snyder discovered her love for dentistry early on while visiting the office where her mom worked as a dental office manager. She was captivated by the calm environment and sense of care—and knew even then that she wanted to create a similar experience one day.

After moving to Florida, she earned her Bachelor of Science in Biomedical Sciences from the University of North Florida, followed by her Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) from LECOM. Today, she specializes in cosmetic dentistry and endodontics, offering everything from smile makeovers to root canal therapy with a gentle, confident touch. Patients trust her not only for her clinical skill—but for how genuinely seen and supported they feel in her care.

A Small Team with a Big Heart

At HarborView Dental, you won’t find a crowded waiting room or a rotating cast of providers. This is a family-led, patient-first practice where everyone who walks through the door is treated like a neighbor—not a number. Though Dr. Snyder is currently the solo provider, she’s supported by her husband at the front desk and a growing vision of a practice built on warmth, trust, and transparency.

The office itself is designed to put patients at ease, featuring cozy blankets, noise-reducing headphones, and curated Amazon lists with Dr. Snyder’s most trusted dental products. It’s a calm, coastal-inspired space that feels more like a boutique wellness studio than a traditional dental office—because every detail is chosen with your comfort in mind.

Focused on Preventive, Cosmetic, and Restorative Care

HarborView Dental offers a well-rounded menu of services, but the practice especially shines in preventive, cosmetic, and restorative dentistry. Whether you’re due for a cleaning or dreaming of a new smile, Dr. Snyder is here to help you feel informed and empowered at every step. Popular treatments include veneers, Invisalign, Botox, dental implants, and root canals—all delivered with care, clarity, and precision.

What sets HarborView apart is the honest, non-corporate approach to care. There’s no pressure to commit to unnecessary treatment—just thoughtful guidance tailored to your goals and lifestyle. For families, individuals, and adults without insurance, the practice also offers flexible in-house membership plans and transparent financing options.
