Meet The Doctor

Dr. Cividanes was born and raised in the Bronx, New York and graduated from Manhattan College with her Bachelor’s Of Science before earning her D.M.D. at Temple University. Afterwards, she completed a residency at Harlem Hospital, and is still expanding her education by working toward her Master’s degree, having earned over 612 hours of CE credits in the last 22 months through the American Academy of General Dentistry.

With her warm personality and ability to connect with patients on all levels, Dr. Cividanes creates an environment that caters to any patient, no matter how apprehensive or fearful. After practicing for two years in the greater Bangor area, Dr. Cividanes knew that this was where she wanted to lay down roots. “Having an opportunity to own my own practice in Brewer is such a dream come true! I love being able to give back to a community that has given me so much joy and happiness.”

For Dr. Cividanes, dentistry is both a passion and an art form. She strives for perfection with each patient. Dr. Cividanes works to keep treatment in house whenever possible by practicing in all areas of general dentistry, from fillings, crowns, and teeth whitening to root canals, dental implants, and even Invisalign. Most recently, she achieved licensure in Maine in surgical third molar (wisdom teeth) removal under IV and non-IV sedation. Dr. Cividanes has previously specialized and trained in sedation in Utah and California, and is excited to now practice this treatment here in Brewer in order to offer her patients the most comfortable experience possible. She is an active member of the American Dental Society of Anesthesiology, which, “further ensures [her] ability to continue to provide high quality anesthesia care.” In addition to her constantly continuing education, Dr. Cividanes’ next professional goal is to acquire training and licensure in facial cosmetic injection via Botox. She is currently an accredited member of the American Academy of Facial Esthetics, but is actively working toward becoming a Diplomate of the AAFE, a designation which requires extensive and comprehensive facial esthetic mastery and earns her membership into the College of Diplomates.

In addition to her day to day work at the office, Dr. Nicole has provided dental readiness for the military on the weekends since 2012 through DOCS Health. Dr. Nicole’s volunteerism has allowed our military personnel to have access to quality dental care, including oral surgeries, restorative work, and dental exams before and after deployment. Lending her dental expertise to DOCS Health is an honor to Dr. Nicole, as a way to show her appreciation for our troops who serve.

Outside of work, Dr. Cividanes dedicates herself to helping others with similar backgrounds to herself. She takes great pride in motivating young and old minds alike to follow their dreams and realize their potential, even under adverse circumstances. Her hobbies include watching her beloved Dallas Cowboys with Emmitt (her little fur baby), exploring the great state of Maine, and spending time with friends and family. Dr. Cividanes has a 7-year old daughter named Ariana, a 5-year old son named Michael,  and a brand new addition to her growing family, Alexander, who was born in April 2023.
