Dr. Jason Graves was born and raised in Utah by two hard-working parents. His father has worked his whole career in accounting while his mother has worked for the United States Postal Service for 20 years.

He is second in a family of six children (five boys, one girl). Two of his younger brothers are also dentists.

Dr. Graves received a degree in business management from Utah Valley University. He was able to graduate CumLade and was able to work a full-time job in the commercial printing industry while attending school full time.

Dr. Graves then attended and graduated from the prestigious Case Western Reserve University School of Dental Medicine. He graduated near the top of his class and loved spending time out of class doing volunteer dental work in the community clinics and organizing a recreational softball team with his class. He was the recipient of the Callahan Memorial Student award, which is given to the top clinical dentist in his class.

Dr. Graves has received multiple awards for his work in dentistry and in the community. In 2016, he and his wife were honored to be the Pinehurst Parks and Rec. Volunteers of the Year for their assistance with multiple youth league teams they coached.

He is also proud to have been able to travel to Ecuador and take part in a humanitarian trip that met the needs of over 3,000 people in rural villages who otherwise would not have access to dental care. Throughout his schooling, he also regularly volunteered in clinics for underprivileged children that were in need of dental care and did not have access to it.

Dr. George strives to treat each patient with care and concern. His goal is to serve and care for each patient as an individual, not just focusing solely on their dental needs.
