One of the things that sets Cook Family and Cosmetic Dentistry apart from other dental practices is our dedicated team of professionals who strive to bring you the best possible dental care. Receiving high-quality treatments are important, but a friendly face and caring approach can make the difference between a dental experience that is just 'okay' and one that is exceptional.

I grew up in Hoover and was a member of the first graduating class from Hoover High School. I attended Birmingham-Southern College and got my dental degree from UAB Dental School in 2005. During my third year of dental school, I married my lovely wife Alicia, and together we now have two children.

After dental school, we moved to Rochester, NY so I could complete a hospital-based residency program. After graduation, I was asked to teach in the same residency program and ended up working as an attending dentist for almost four years. During that time, I taught the residents in all areas of dentistry from fillings and root canals to cosmetic dentistry and implants.

I hope to develop lifelong relationships with my patients. I believe in honest, conservative dentistry with an emphasis on prevention and patient education. Thank you for trusting us with your dental health and please let us know if you have any suggestions on how to improve this practice we would appreciate hearing from you!
