Convenient Access from Royal Palm Yacht & Country Club
One road connects the Intracoastal side of Boca Raton with Legacy Dental Care, and from the yacht clubhouse the drive takes about 12 minutes. For homeowners who want a dentist near Royal Palm Yacht & Country Club without a maze of turns, that simplicity is the appeal. Dr. Sida Huang handles every appointment personally, from routine cleanings to full restorations.
From the clubhouse at 2425 West Maya Palm Drive, follow Maya Palm Drive West to Royal Palm Way and head west. That road turns into SW 18th Street without a single turn, and you stay on it for about 3.7 miles, through one roundabout. The plaza comes up a short way before Powerline Road, for a total trip of roughly 4.4 miles.
Our suite is at 6877 SW 18th St # H120, Boca Raton, FL 33433, in the Boardwalk at 18th Street plaza. Open Legacy Dental Care on Google Maps to save the destination, then look for free parking directly in front of the office. The building is wheelchair accessible. Nearby, we also serve Downtown Boca Raton and Camino Gardens.
A Practice Built for Royal Palm's Pace of Life
Royal Palm Yacht & Country Club sits in east Boca Raton between Federal Highway and the Intracoastal Waterway, with entrances on Federal Highway and East Camino Real. The club dates itself to 1959, and its golf course opened in 1960. The club sits directly on the Intracoastal Waterway.
The community has a notable place in local history. Arvida, the company Arthur Vining Davis formed in 1958, funded the development through stock sales. The result was Boca Raton's first planned unit development, and the first community in the nation to bury its utilities underground.
Careful planning shaped the neighborhood, and it shapes our care too: one dentist, unhurried appointments and a detailed cost breakdown before any treatment. Office hours run Monday through Thursday, 9 AM to 4 PM, and Friday visits are available by appointment only.
Because the trip is one long road west, it is easy to time. A late-morning cleaning leaves the afternoon open, and the drive back east ends close to Federal Highway and the waterfront. If you travel for part of the year, we can line up checkups and any unfinished treatment before you leave, so nothing sits half done while you are away.
Protecting Long-Term Dental Work Near the Intracoastal
Boca Raton as a whole skews older, with nearly a quarter of city residents aged 65 or over in the last census. That figure covers the entire city, not Royal Palm alone, but it points to the kind of care many households here need. Crowns, bridges and implants placed years ago all need periodic checks to stay sound.
Restorations tend to fail slowly. A tiny gap at the edge of a crown lets decay creep underneath, and a worn bridge can strain the teeth that support it. Regular exams spot those changes early, so a repair stays modest instead of turning into an extraction.
When a tooth does need replacing, planning matters. Dr. Huang uses CBCT cone beam imaging to see bone volume and nerve position in three dimensions before recommending an implant. That clarity helps him place the implant where it will last, and it lets you see exactly what he sees.
Appearance counts as well. Thin porcelain veneers can cover chips, stains and uneven edges on front teeth, giving a smile a refreshed look without changing its character. Dr. Huang reviews shade and shape with you before anything is made.
Gum health ties all of this together. Gum disease is a leading reason adults lose teeth, and it can loosen the supporting bone around crowns, bridges and implants alike. Many people feel little or nothing until the problem is well along, which is why routine cleanings and gum checks carry so much weight. Staying on a steady schedule is the simplest way to protect years of earlier dental work.
Care from a Dentist Near Royal Palm Yacht & Country Club
Restorative Dentistry
Fillings, crowns and bridges rebuild teeth that have worn, cracked or decayed. Replacing an aging restoration before it fails protects the tooth underneath. Each plan begins with an exam and a clear explanation of the options.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Whitening, bonding and veneers refine color and shape for a natural, polished result. Treatment is planned around your face, your bite and the look you prefer. Many cosmetic changes take only a few visits.
Dental Implants
An implant replaces a missing tooth from the root up and helps preserve the jawbone. Implants can also anchor a denture that tends to move. 3D imaging guides planning from the first consultation.
Emergency Dentistry
A broken crown before a family event or a sudden toothache gets a same-day or next-day appointment. New patients can start with a $29 emergency exam and x-ray. The straight run west on SW 18th Street keeps the trip quick when it matters.
Preventative Dentistry
Cleanings, exams and oral cancer screenings form the base of every treatment plan. Staying on a regular schedule keeps restorations and gums in good shape. Booking the next visit at checkout keeps the routine effortless.

Frequently Asked Questions
How far is Legacy Dental Care from Royal Palm Yacht & Country Club, and how do I get there?
Legacy Dental Care sits about 4.4 miles west of the yacht clubhouse, roughly 12 minutes by car. Take Maya Palm Drive West to Royal Palm Way, which becomes SW 18th Street, and stay on it to the plaza. Few routes to a dentist near Royal Palm Yacht & Country Club are this direct, although rush hour adds time.
Why might an upper back implant need a sinus lift first?
A sinus lift adds bone when the upper jaw is too thin below the sinus to hold an implant. Bone often shrinks after a back tooth has been missing for a while. CBCT 3D imaging shows how much height is there, so Dr. Sida Huang can plan the lift and the implant together before treatment begins.
Do Royal Palm residents still need checkups if their teeth feel fine?
Yes, because most cavities, gum disease and cracks cause no pain in the early stages. A cleaning and exam every six months lets Dr. Huang find problems while they are small and less costly to fix. From Royal Palm the trip is essentially one road west, Royal Palm Way into SW 18th Street, about 12 minutes from the clubhouse.
Can nervous patients have a calmer dental visit?
Yes, the treatment rooms are noise-reducing, which softens the sounds that make many people tense. Dr. Huang is known for a calm, gentle manner and explains each step before he starts, so nothing comes as a surprise. The office sits in unincorporated Palm Beach County, about 12 minutes west of Royal Palm along SW 18th Street.
Can veneers replace old bonding on front teeth?
Often, yes. Bonding can stain and chip over the years, and porcelain veneers resist staining better while covering the same flaws. Dr. Huang checks the enamel, your bite and any existing work before recommending a change. Some patients only need the bonding refreshed, and he explains which path fits your teeth and budget.
