Casey Goetz Dr. Casey never planned on being a pediatric dentist. In college, he had ambitions of working as a veterinarian or a physician. One day while working his summer college job at a small engine repair shop, a customer invited Casey to come and shadow him at his local pediatric dental practice. Within 10 minutes of watching the dentist work, Casey knew that pediatric dentistry is what he wanted to do for the rest of his life.
Dr. Casey earned his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree as well as his Certificate of Pediatric Dentistry from the University of Iowa College of Dentistry. He spent two years at the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics and the Childrens Hospital of Iowa treating pediatric patients in both a clinical setting, and under general anesthesia. His additional training and experiences at this top-level program have given him a special skill set in treating challenging patients.
Dr. Casey is also very comfortable treating patients with special health care needs. Throughout his residency he received additional training in treating patients with neurodevelopment and related disabilities. Dr. Casey takes pride in treating every patient like he or she was his own, and patients that need a little extra time and attention hold a special place in his heart. He is not afraid to think outside the box and to work with parents to develop oral health strategies that best fit their childs needs.
Outside of pediatric dentistry, Dr. Casey has a deep passion for hunting and the great outdoors. He loves chasing ducks and pheasants with his Labrador Retriever, Jasmine. In November, you can find him hunting big Missouri whitetail bucks at his family farm in Bowling Green, Missouri. In addition to spending time in the great outdoors, he and his wife Jenna enjoy traveling, going to St. Louis Blues hockey games, and exploring restaurants in the St. Louis area.

Dr Casey did a great job working with our nonverbal grandson on his first dentist visit. The staff were all very pleasant, friendly and helpful to us. Definitely recommend this practice.

We had our first visit at the office today. The staff was great. Very welcoming and friendly. The hygienist took time to explain things to my 6 year old to ease his mind, and also laugh with him. Dr Casey was very nice and informative. He made us feel relaxed and welcomed right away! He and his staff provided excellent service...we are excited to bring our son back in the future! Thanks for such an enjoyable experience!

I'm a hygienist but my son needed some work and I felt we needed a Pediatric office for it. I was referred to Dr Casey and am so happy that I was! The Staff was amazing! And Dr. Casey was so good with my son. We will be recommending him from now on!

Excellent manner with children. Very insightful and responsive to their behavioral cues. My son is deathly afraid of dentists, but had absolutely no problems at our appointment. I think this may change the trajectory, with a life-long positive outcome for future care. Well done!!!

Wow. My kid may actually LIKE going to the dentist! We were referred from a local dentist to Dr. Casey to consult on a possible sedation for a filling for our 8 year old son. We had the BEST most comprehensive consultation, we talked over our options. And we are more than pleased, so pleased, in fact, we decided to become regular patients on our first visit. Let me say if you have a child with special needs, a child on the spectrum, or even a child who has just had a past bad experience with another dentist, this is your clinic. Dr. Casey and his staff were awesome.

I loved that the hygienist actually talked to my son (he is 10) instead of me, giving him great information about teeth and how to take care of them. Explained what plaque is and how it causes cavities and how to prevent the build up. Dr. Casey was also super kind and informative. I'm very happy to have this great of a dentist so close to home!

Dr Casey and his team were amazing! They were nice, polite and knowledgeable. They were very quick and kept us in the know of what they were doing. We didn't have to wait long at all in the waiting room but the kids wouldn't have minded if we did, they have iPads and stuff to play with! Love this place for my kids! We will keep them forever!! Thank you guys!!!!

We couldn't be more pleased with our experience at this office. The front staff was on top of everything and super efficient. The hygenist was so kind to our kids and definitely had a way of making them feel comfortable and ready before Dr. Casey came in. We were there for one of our kiddos needing an emergency visit over the weekend and we were in by that Monday! They also squeezed in another kiddo same visit who had an upcoming appt. just to get that out of there way! Amazing! Dr. Casey is PATIENT and so great with kids in general. He works at the pace of each child and their different needs. No judgment and just over all great bed side manor. I would encourage everyone to switch here and not waste time somewhere where you're not feeling 100% satisfied with your kiddos care. Plus the office is SUPER nice and clean! All around wonderful experience. Thank you everyone at Cuivre Creek! (:

New patient and very impressed! Dr. Goetz was so patient and relaxed with our kiddo. All kids get nervous at the dentist but he has a way of being understanding and non judgemental. Very knowledgeable and I trust that we have made the best switch possible. I recommend to any parent looking for a dependable and friendly office. Reception is also easy going and efficient which is a huge plus for us. Looking forward to future visits with the rest of the fam!

Dr Casey is AMAZING, and very passionate about his work and the comfort of the children that come in, as is every single one of his staff members. I CAN NOT say enough how truly incredible their office is!! They were amazing with my child, and were so nice and likeable. My daughter broke her front permanent tooth in half after she tripped and fell a week ago, and now you cant even tell it happend. She was telling people she didnt get a shot today at her appointment because they were SOOO good, she didnt even realize or feel it. (She got 3 shots, i think for numbing!)Dr Casey was even singing along with her to the song on the Disney movie she was watching, (and she really thought that was the best). I have always had major anxiety about going to the dentist, but after 15 minutes at this place, i was wanting to come in for myself (unfortunately im not a peds patient) Do yourself (and your child) a favor and dont look ANYWHERE ELSE. CALL TODAY. They will truly change yours' and your childs life, and how you/they view dentists. If i could give them 100 I WOULD!! Definetley the ONLY dentist my children will be seeing for as long as they're in business
