Meet Dr. Richard E. Scipione

I believe that great dentistry is about more than just one visit. It’s about the relationship over time that is built up with compassion and trust as we work toward the best dental health that you could possibly have.

Luis Matute

Can’t speak highly enough about this Dental clinic. From the staff, to the facilities, everything is top quality. My doctor is Dr. Jessica Tingstrom and I’ve been her patient for over 10yrs. What truly sets her apart from any other doctor I’ve met is her sense of empathy, compassion and unmatched bedside manner. It goes without saying that she’s an extremely knowledgeable and talented dentist who will always make you feel secure and comfortable while you are on her chair. Coupled with a great doctor are great teammates. Lori is my most recent hygienist, and not only she is soft and meticulous, but also a well of knowledge. Tonya is a show runner. She will meet with you, help you understand your coverage options and explain your treatment plan, AND work with you and your schedule; she is an instant friend once you meet her. Become a patient a Metairie Modern Dentistry, you will not regret it!

Dr. Lockhart and her assistant Ms. Jaylan were so friendly, kind, and accommodating during my visit. Ms Tonya at the front was great as well. Everything was thoroughly explained and the care provided was top notch. Ms Lori cleaned my teeth so well I feel like I have a brand new mouth. I am very happy I went and saw them. It had been about 4 years since I last saw a dentist so I was pretty apprehensive, but they made feel great and I’m really glad I went! I’ll be back for sure! Thank you all very much

Catherine Bianchini

I started going to Dr. Lockhart about a month ago. She is awesome! I have recomended her to all of my family! She is so kind and pleasant. She really takes the time to make sure I am comfortable and explain everything to me. And all of the staff are absolutely great! I couldn't ask for a better team of people to take care of my dental needs. I highly recommend Metairie Modern Dentistry, and especially Dr. Lockhart.

What is the Mouth-Body Connection® ?


The Mouth-Body Connection® refers to the link between oral health and overall health, and the role that the harmful bacteria and inflammation in our mouths play in chronic, systemic disease. That’s why it’s time we talked about more than your teeth. Our office prioritizes your overall health as it relates to your oral health. When we care for your smile we’re also looking out for your entire self.
