Have you been looking for a new dentist recommendation? I have noticed many people in search on the various community pages. With over 40 years as a dentist, I'd like to offer some personal thoughts as you consider your options.
When it comes to dental care, recommendations are certainly encouraged. It's not just about who charges less, it's about finding someone you trust. At our office, when you're in my care, I take pride in building real relationships with my patients. We get to know you, listen to your concerns, and make sure you always feel comfortable. You're never just another name on a schedule.
We are not part of a big corporate chain. I am on staff of a local private practice where you'll see the same friendly faces each visit, and where every recommendation comes from what's truly best for you- not a sales goal. Great dentistry starts with trust, not transactions.
If you're looking for a dental home where you'll be treated with kindness, respect, and genuine concern for your health, we'd be honored to welcome you. I encourage you to look into our practice and the comments from our many satisfied patients.

Some dental history to share.

The word dentist originates from the French word “dentiste “ derived from “dent” meaning tooth, and the suffix “iste” that suggests one who specializes in a specific field.

Teeth are the only human body part that cannot heal itself. They are coated in enamel which is not a living tissue.

Choosing a dentist for your care is a big decision. I typically ask our new patients why they selected our office. Their answers varied. Here’s what I learned:
- Some research online reviews before they decide.
- Some come from recommendations of friends and family.
- Some switch to where the office accepts their insurance.
- Some dentists and staff communicate poorly.
- The dentist had a bad chairside manner.

I feel dentistry is a very personal service. You should feel safe and secure. You should trust your dentist.

As your dentist, I want to provide a comfortable, safe environment. My chairside manner appeals to you. I will explain clearly your care and why it’s important. I will answer your questions and concerns to your satisfaction.

I love what I do, and whatever your dental situation is, I will find a solution. If this is what you seek, I’d like to become your dentist. Schedule your appointment with me today at Clarkston Family Dental. 248-624-2424.

Thank you.

Greetings everyone.
For the past few years I’ve had the opportunity to provide dental articles for the Clarkston Living magazine. If you haven’t seen them, I’d like to share them with you. Today’s topic is dental anxiety.

I recently attended the 160th Chicago Midwinter Meeting where I got to learn about my new products for dentists and patients, learn about updated dental techniques, and saw a vast array of equipment and technology.
This session was filled with new products such as an electric flosser and treatments for dry mouth. I was fortunate to learn in depth smile design methods, oral surgery, artificial intelligence in dentistry. and even forensic dentistry.
It’s always great to visit Chicago and learn about the occupation I love.
