Dr Tim was born and raised in Northern California. Dr Timothy Roettger got his undergraduate degree in biology at CSU Chico. From there he went on to get his Doctorate of Dental Medicine ( DMD) at Westernu University of Health Sciences in Pomona California. Dr Tim lives in McKinleyville with his beautiful wife Ivanna and two children. Dr Tim loves to fish, hike and spend time with his family.
Its my pleasure to assist our patients with financial matters. At Central Dental Care, we want to make it possible for each patient to receive the care they need, when they need it. I help them make the most of their insurance benefits, and then create, submit, and follow-up on insurance claims.
I really enjoy working one-to-one with a patient. We develop real relationships, and I look forward to their visits as a time to hear the latest news, not just to check up on the health of their mouth. My days are spent cleaning teeth, providing periodontal maintenance and therapy, delivering anesthetic, and, most importantly, providing oral hygiene education. When a patient learns how to care for their oral health at home, then Ive done my job well!
I love helping our patients develop better oral health and great smiles. My job duties involve assisting Dr. Tim with various dental procedures, assisting with the fabrication of the CEREC single-visit crowns, and providing patient education. I also coordinate schedules for implant restorations and handle our inventory. All aspects of my work are enjoyable, but I most like the one-to-one time with our patients, getting to know them and sharing stories.

I've never experienced pain free dentistry until Dr. Tim. I must admit I was a bit apprehensive about getting some cavities filled. I've had some very painful experiences from past dentists. I didn't feel a thing. Dr. Tim and his staff are very friendly and welcoming. Every procedure and reason for the procedure was explained. Thank you Dr Tim and staff for being so kind and so skilful.

Amazing dentistry practice! Very kind and considerate. They don't seem to overcharge or try to do a whole lot of expensive work that does not need to be done just to get your money, like some other places do. They also let the patient know that the patient is in contoll of their own mouth and decision making. Highly recomended.

I had an unexpected tooth emergency. I didn't have a dentist in the area. Dr. Tim came highly recommended by my family. I called and though they are accepting new patients, they were being scheduled several weeks out. When I told her what was happening, they got me in the next morning. When I went in, all the staff I encountered were very friendly and professional. Observing great covid-19 protocols. After examination, I needed emergency oral surgery. I have a strong fear of dentists. BUT Dr. Tim was great at how he handled the entire situation. Keeping me calm while performing a difficult procedure. His compassion was amazing! Thank you Danielle, Deborah and Jazmyn. I'm sorry if I misspelled your names. And Dr Tim. You all made a horrible situation bearable. And I am healing very well. I highly recommend Central Dental!!

I've been visiting this dentist for many years and absolutely love the whole crew here! Front office people are friendly and great at scheduling and keeping things running efficiently, Deborrah my hygienist is the most detailed and effective hygienist I have ever visited, and Dr Roettger is friendly and super competent. I came here during Dr Beck's time also and she was great. Whole staff keeps up with the latest techniques, yet the prices have always been reasonable given all they provide.
