Skill and compassion go hand in hand when providing exceptional patient care. As a dental professional, I stay up to date on the latest advancements in dentistry in order to provide the most current treatment options for my patients. As a doctor, I recognize that my patients are unique individuals who have placed a great deal of trust in me and my team. That is just one reason why I value each and every patient relationship.

After graduating from the University of Washington Dental School in 1983, Dr. Strang established his first private dental practice in Phoenix, AZ. His Sun Break continued for 14 years. The Pacific NW has always been home, prompting his return to Washington in 1997 to be closer to family as he and his wife, Cheryl, raised their young daughter. Returning to the Dry Side of the state has never disappointed. Country living agrees with him. Outside of the office you might see Dr. Mike cruising past on his bicycle or motorcycle. Dr. Strang is celebrating 25 years serving the dental needs of Dayton, Waitsburg and surrounding areas. Learning is a passion for Dr. Strang and he is devoted to continuing his education through a variety of courses designed to explore new dental materials and techniques as the profession changes. Dr. Strang loves using his experience and skill to bring out the best in his patients smiles. He is dedicated to the comfort and care of his patients.Memberships: ADA, WSDA, WW Valley Dental Society
