Dr. Renee, as she is affectionately called and her staff at Dental First Corp. take a holistic approach to dentistry by focusing on patient’s total body wellness.

The good doctor will work closely with her patient’s physicians as well.
Whether patients are healthy or have gum disease: gingivitis or periodontitis, Dr. Renee and the staff at Dental First Corp can help restore and maintain oral health to patients by using holistic, non-surgical techniques.

For the mercury conscious patient, Dr. Renee and Dental First Corp. offer an additional safe system for removing amalgam fillings. Sometimes called “silver amalgam”, amalgam has been the most popular and effective filling material used in dentistry for the last 150 years. It consists of a combination of metals, which include silver, mercury, tin and copper. After safe removal of the amalgam fillings and a simple detox program to cleanse the body, the fillings are then replaced with non-metal alternatives. There are also non-metal alternatives for partials, crowns and bridges available as well.
If “you can tell a tree by the fruit it bears” then Dr. Renee serves as a wonderful testament to her father, the late Dr. Perry C. Fennell Jr. Dr. Perry Fennell Jr. was also a community dentist whose mission was helping people. He also attended Temple University on an American Legion Scholarship and received his bachelor’s degree in 1954 but he did not stop there. Dr. Perry C. Fennel Jr. continued onto Temple University School of Dentistry where he was inducted into the Omicron Kappa Upsilon National Dental Honor Society. He practiced dentistry in West Philadelphia for more than 35 years. In 1970, Dr. Fennell Jr. and his partners founded the F.L.W.G Comprehensive Healthcare Center at 52nd Street and Haverford Avenue, the largest health care center in the community. After the center closed in 1980, Dr. Fennell Jr. renamed his practice Dental First Corp. and practiced until he retired in 2005.
Dr. Fennel Jr. was a community activist as well. He received many accolades for founding Interested Negroes, Inc., a non-profit organization for the advancement and education of Black youth. The organization mentored more than 1500 youth per year from 1967 to 1982. It partnered youth with white and blue-collar businessmen and professional jobs in the community. For this effort, Fennell received the Philadelphia Award and Medal in 1975. He was the only dentist to receive this prestigious award.
Dr. Renee continues in that great tradition and mentor students, organizes and participates in health fairs, community outreach and donates to local charities. She is passionate about students and serves as a Diversity Officer and Adjunct Professor at Temple University Kornberg School of Dentistry.
