Get To Know Us – Outside The Office

  When they aren’t working their magic at Frangella Cosmetic and General Dentistry, doctors Andrew Frangella, Tina Frangella, and Laura Frangella get in as much quality family time as they can. They value their downtime and make the most of it every single day. Dr. Andrew grew up in Huntington, NY with his siblings but now lives on the North Shore of Long Island in the town of Manhasset. He says it’s a nice community with great schools, which is a good thing for his family. Several years after college, he met his wife Jennifer through friends. They’ve been together since 2009 and have 5-year-old twins, Jackson and Avery. Their favorite family activity is spending a day at the ski hill. Dr. Andrew enjoys taking his kids to soccer practice and watching them improve their ball-handling skills. The most rewarding part of being a parent is giving – and receiving – joy. Dr. Tina lives in Huntington, NY with her husband Brian and their two kids, Lea (6) and Ashlyn (3). They have a Boston Terrier named Mabel. She met her husband in … you guessed it! … dental school. He sat in front of her in their pre-clinical class. They chose to live in Huntington because Brian practices dentistry there and it’s close to both of their offices. They’re also close to family… And there’s another perk: it’s near the water. Their favorite thing to do is hang out at the lake. From boating to relaxing on the beach to paddle boarding and kayaking, they do it all together. Dr. Tina considers herself fortunate to be able to see the joy and excitement in her children’s faces when they learn and experience new things. Every day offers a new surprise. Dr. Laura lives in Dix Hills, NY with her husband Jeffrey and their two kids, Brendan (4) and Daniella (8 months). She met Jeffrey in college – he was the guy in the dorm next door. They became good friends, and the rest, as they say, is history. Their community is family-friendly and offers clubs for kids, great schools, and plenty of room in every backyard for kids to run around. Dr. Laura says that the best part of being a mom is witnessing her kids develop over time and learn new things. She says they’ve progressed by leaps and bounds – socially, educationally, and physically – in a very short timespan. She is proud every time they learn something new.
