I am an active member in the American Dental Association, Pennsylvania Dental Association, and the Cambria County Dental Association. In July 2017 I received my Mastership from the Academy of General Dentistry. The Mastership award required that I complete 1,100 hours of continuing education in 16 disciplines of dentistry, including 400 hours dedicated to hands on skills and techniques.
A Certified Orthodontic Assistant and X-ray Certified Dental Assistant joined Family Dentistry in 1998. She works in the Family Dentistry dental lab and with our Orthodontist. She lives in Vintondale with her husband Ron and two dogs. She is also a very proud grandma.

Couldn't ask for a better Dentist or crew. They are absolutely wonderful and caring.

I had woken up with a broken front tooth. On a Saturday of all days. I googled for dentists open on Saturday and went to the office in person to plead my case. They graciously fit me in, my tooth was restored like new, and all under two hours. The staff was wonderful!

I called to request an appointment for a tooth that had become infected over the weekend. And I told her "I have a tooth that has become infected over the weekend and need to see a dentist" her response was "oh boy, I can't get you in today" then she paused as if she were waiting for me to say something but my question was when can you see me? Not when can you not see me? So she continued to tell me things she couldn't do. I was like ok? So again, when CAN you see me? She was so rude and kept giving excuses. I would never want to use a dentist office who's first response is to turn people away.

Easy access to office including parking, staff are amazingly friendly, thorough exams, Dr. Garver gives his patients as much time as they need to ask any questions, he explains things so you can understand. Amazing results. I've been with Family Dentistry for about 25 years now.

In my opinion, Dr. Garver is the best Dentist in Johnstown. I've known him for over 20 years and after moving all over the country while in the Army, I have yet to find a better dentist.
